Try instead of selecting "Login" use "Register". Put in your normal login details and this should work for you.

I use the same account on three devices, and I link them to the server which is just what you want to do.
Do one thing, sun of the user you have in Oruxmaps, put back the same user you want to have on both devices.
If you enter the sicami telegram group we can solve it quickly with screenshots and videos.

Thanks Tronpo,

I'll post on telegram later.

Hi, look at settings/integration/oruxmapsicami.
Another option you can see is in configuration / configured, you advance in the wizard until you reach the server section.

If I go to settings/integration/oruxmapsicami then email (on my tablet), it gives me the option of both my Gmail accounts and add another. I select add account then pop3 and enter my email address and I get the error 'Duplicate account, you're already using this username for the account 'xxxx@blueyonder.co.uk''.
Is this because I'm already using this account with my phone?
Can I not use both devices so I can transfer GPX files between them?

Just to add to this thread, I completely remove Oruxmaps from the tablet and deleted any folders related to the app.
I then went to log in to Sicami. This time it asked for me to enter an email address. This gave the options for my Gmail accounts or add an account.
As this is not a Gmail account I'm using I select pop3, I enter my email address and next, I then get the message Duplicate account. does this mean I can only have one device to a Sicami account?

I have just installed Oruxmaps on a Galaxy Tab 6. I originally logged in by creating a new Sicami account.
I then discovered I already had an account linked to Oruxmaps on my Android phone which was already created from an existing Oruxmaps account.
I have since deleted the new account and am trying to login with my original account but when I select 'Login Oruxmaps/SICAMI' and then get the Privacy Policy, I select Accept which takes me to 'Register/Login/Privacy Policy' screen then when I click 'Login' the screen changes to briefly to another screen before giving the error 'sorry, old server is no longer available'.
I assume the app still has my original login details saved so it's preventing me from entering new details.
Is there a way I can update the email and password in the app?

I can't see as well any "segment" on this track when loaded in OM... nor in your screen copy.

What we can see :
- the different colors, that represent the slope. This can be activated, or de-activated in Global settings/User interface/Tracks route.../Colored path with slope
- Automatic marks at each unit distance (KM or mile or what unit you set) : This can be activated, or de-activated in Global settings/User interface/Tracks route.../Draw distance indicator
- Waypoints defined in the GPX file. If you do not want them, remove them from the gpx file, or maybe in Waypoints settings, select "No icons"

Thanks LaurantG,
'Global settings/User interface/Tracks route/distance indicator' solved it.
I hadn't realised they were distance markers. They seemed to coincide with the positions where I placed the track each time. Now I know what they are I might even keep them.
That explains why I couldn't find any reference to them in the GPX file 

Those markers are not segment in the gpx file but probably they are the auto segmentation within the app.
go to settings - Tracks and routes - auto segmentation - and disable the auto segmentation distance (set to 0)

Thanks for the suggestion Haldo, unfortunately it's set at the default '0' so is not causing the problem.

I have looked for GPX/route creating software that allows me to add waypoints with descriptions, follows the path (like Brouter and GraphHopper).
The best online software that I've found for this is Alltrails. This appears to follow the path more accurately than the other options and adding waypoints is straight forward.
The problem I have is when creating the route you have to do it in sections (segments) or it will route you the way the software wants, not the way you want. When I download the GPX file and add it to Oruxmaps, the map shows the positions of the 'segments'. If I view the track in Wtracks, the 'segments' are not displayed.
If I open the GPX track in a text editor I can see the waypoints but the as far as I can find, there is only one segment indicated by <trkseg> and </trkseg> at eh beginning and end of the data. Theres nothing at the points shown on the map. I have also searched the file for the coordinates shown when selecting the marker but nothing is found.
Can anyone tell me how I can remove these markers?
I have attached the GPX file and a screenshot of the issue.

Thanks Haldo,
So I'm guessing I can use FolderSync for maintaining the maps, tracks and maps styles as I have been and then backup with the Oruxmaps system in case anything gets deleted by mistake.

I have just discovered Google Drive listed in integration. Can someone explain, where it states 'backup' Will this only backup the tracks to the drive or will it sync any new tracks or modified tracks to the Oruxmaps folder?
The hours of backup defaults to '0'. Does this require a specific hour or if set to '0' will it backup on change or is a set time necessary?

For now I have installed FolderSync on my phone a and set it to sync the Maps folder and Map Styles folder. I can force a sync at any time or set to specific times which seems to work quite well. HAs anyone found a better way to achieve this?  Will syncing of additional folders be introduced in Oruxmaps in the future?

Thanks again afgb1977, I'll check out the Telegram group.

I have added this to the onlinemapsources.xml to try, it shows in the list of online sources but the map doesn't display when selected.

What am I missing?

Thanks afgb1977 I'll have a play and see if any of these are the same.

I am trying to add the OSM maps as displayed here:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/export#map=15/51.6000/-0.4816
This is also the same as displayed on the Viewranger site under Open Street Map view.
https://my.viewranger.com/user/routes/add

It's similar to openstreetmap Mapnik but the footpaths are displayed better. I have tried the latest Vector graphics maps but not all the footpaths are on the map.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have found a map overlay for footpaths created by my local authority on ArcGIS.com.
The overlay is named PROW_Public_New

The overlay can be viewed on a map here: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/View/index.html?appid=91b11349f29f40ec9770eba1108229ae

Is there a way I can display this as an overlay in Oruxmaps?
