Just curious Technoguppy as I might be missing something here. You say "I can assure you I didn't make up the screen shots. They are real"
I must be blind or something as I can't see any option to not synch the data to the tread app from locking at your screen shots.

Re: Garmin Listened!!!!
To see this setting, the Tread App and the XT2 must be connected to each other. This might be your situation. When your phone and unit are paired, go to Settings --> Devices --> Zumo XT2 --> Finish Setup. You should see the screen shot as shown below.
Where you see "Finish Setup" at the top of the app screen, you then see under Recommended another setting "Garmin Explore" which offers to "Keep your places synced, and enable features such as Group Ride". I have NOT enabled that feature. I believe this is the "feature" that Garmin uses to sync data between the Tread App and the XT2, which then ultimately mucky mucks with your pre-planned (BaseCamp) routes. You can see that it is under the category Recommended and not Completed.
Hope this helps.
NOTE: I suspect that once you enable Garmin Explore, there is no UNDOING it. You would have to uninstall the app from your phone (reboot it), factory reset your XT2 completely and rerun. I truly believe (but have not tested the theory) that once you enable it you're stuck with it. Tread lightly (pun intended).

Re: Garmin Listened!!!!
It also looks that tread app doesn't fuck with the routes from Basecamp and Kurviger anymore
I enabled sync again, and test loaded 1 BC route and 2 Kurviger routes, the routes stay the same even after sync with tread-app, no replacements of via or waypoints what I can see, in simulation-mode. Hopefully the weather is good tomorrow and I can try out on the bike.

@Eltjo Any update? Did you try out your unit and can you confirm that the Tread app didn't overwrite or rewrite your planned routes?Eltjo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 1:46 am It also looks that tread app doesn't fuck with the routes from Basecamp and Kurviger anymore

Inquiring minds want to know! Thanks in advance!

It sounds good that the XT2 Tread synchronization should no longer change (destroy) the XT2 routes.technoguppy wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 11:57 am@Eltjo Any update?

Please share your upcoming experiences here.
I will also try to activate Tread again next time and then tell you about my experiences.
Re: Garmin Listened!!!!
Till now, no messed up routes, waypoints or via points, but, I can't directly sent routes anymore through usb cable from basecamp to XT2. tracks and waypoints come through, only the routes no more. So I now sent the the whole package via email, open it with thread and let it synchronise with the XT2, that works

Re: Garmin Listened!!!!
It's really frustrating.
The interaction between also the newer Tread app 2.08.29 and newer XT2 Firmware 4.60 destroys routes
Not always, most of it stays ok, but most of it is not enough, I just want to trust an app.
I can't understand why it's so hard for the app to just leave points as they are.
Synchronizing seems to work better, but I'm still really pissed off.
I spend hours and hours putting details into a route and this f... app just keeps destroying the tour.
PS
If you don't believe it, attached is one of my experiences
