Charging Stations are not shown anymore

[Manfred]

Hi!

Osmand latest nightly.
Since some time Charging Stations are not shown any more.
When I try to
Search->Categories->Custom Search/Service/Charging station
or
.../Transportation/ Charging station 
there is "Nothing found within the radius:  xx km"

But there is at least one included in in OSM.
When I zoom to this place Configure map->POI overlay-> Nearest POI
I can see it as an orange circle without an icon in it (once it was a gas 
station with a plug).
Opening it shows (beside other data) "Osmand electricity combined charging"
(It is an AC-only station, no CCS)

The main problem is, that I make my own obf-files from POI-files (.gpx) 
from here:
https://www.goingelectric.de/stromtankstellen/poi/
gpx-files are converted by GPSBabel to .osm, then to obf by 
OsmAndMapCreator, latest available version.X
In osm-file a POI looks like this:





   * *
  

And these files worked until some time ago.
I use German as language in Osmand and had to filter for 
Tansport/Ladestation (in Englisch: Transportation/Charging station)and all 
the stations where shown in the map.

There must have been done some changes, wherever i don't know, but seems 
have to do with the bold formates text above.

So a lot of questions:
What should stand in the tag above instead of "amenity" and 
"charging_station"
What category and type must I set in filter.
Where can i find a list of POI-names and corresponding icons?

What must somebody else do, to make this work again?

Regards
Manfred

Re: Problems recording tracks with OSMAND 2.7

[Manfred]

Hi Graham!

You are doing the same as I do (besides first stopping, then saving)
When recording, the red GPX-button should blink (shrink a little) every 
five seconds.

The file is stored in the folder you described and has name like this:
2017-09-01_18-48_Fri.gpx
(Date_Time_DOW.gpx)

If its content looks like this:
##
 
http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1 
http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd;> 
   
 
   
   
 
   

##
no track points are generated.

Why?
Good question.
I have no answer.

Regards
Manfred

I think, it would be a good idea to describe your problem, instead of 
lamenting about Osmand, praise your skills, an threaten to use a different 
app.
Nobody can tell you, that he has the same problem, if you do not tell him, 
what is yours.
And nobody can help you solving a problem, he does not know that you have 
it.

All I can tell you, is, that I have no problems recording tracks, which 
will not help you very much.

Regards
Manfred

You should learn the differences between tracks and routes: 

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_Exchange_Format
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_Exchange_Format

Tracks are  lots of independent points (the only relationship is their 
position in a list)
Routes are al list of points, where somebody has to connect them by means 
of a (route-able) map with roads.

You may have al look at routeconverter 
(http://www.routeconverter.de/home/de)
as Peter B mentioned earlier.
BTW I use it running in Linux.

Re: How to edit saved earlier route?

First: Trying to use OBF-files outside OsmAnd is nonsense.
Second: In the menus of GPSPrune you will find things like
"Show map", and in "Settings": "Load Maps form Internet" or so.
