Hi there,
It is almost impossible to find some stuff about Bip S. I have just bought one a week ago and trying to make it more useful. First of all, it is said that the watch comes with 10 different activity options. I just got 6. Later I found out that there is this OTA update which I didn't get it. Because my watch is updated to the latest version and still got 6 options. If anyone knows about it please let me know.
I 've got some other issues I would like to mention all. The second issue is the lack of watch faces and inability of using creators because I guess there is no one for Bip S yet. One that exists for Bip gives an error for most of the work.
Finally, I was trying to use amaztool which is a good app. I didn't get ''the custom trigger'' section though. Anyone knows how to use this and what is this ''url'' part about in it?
Thanks in advance for the responses.
Waiting for OTA update also.

These are really nice and they are working if I change them via Notify & fitness app manually. Unfortunately, Notify & fitness cannot sync my workouts at the moment...
Hi all,
I have got an Amazfit Bip S, and I would like to connect it to Gadgetbridge. However, it does not work because I cannot find a working authentification key. I tried sqlite3 and the modded Amazfit app from freeyourgadget.com. I am grateful for any suggestions. Here is what I have tried so far:
I tried the sqlite3-method with a rooted phone running Android 7. I followed the procedure as described in the Huami-Server-Paring description on github. However, it seems the phone has no sqlite3-package, and I could not push one to /system/xbin because I had no writing permission. I copied the origin_db_* to /sdcard/ and pushed the sqlite3-package from my laptop to the same directory. It did not work either, sqlite3 gave me back it could not find a line with DEVICE.
The modded Amazfit-app produced a file, which read [MAC-address];[32-character alphanumeric sequence]. I tried the 32-character alphanumeric sequence as authentification key in the Gadgetbridge-app, but it did not work. For all I know, the authentification key should have 16 characters.
I am grateful for any suggestions!
Taken from the gadgetbridge guide did you do this when entering your key:
IMPORTANT: Enter your key prefixed with 0x ( eg. if your key is fedcba01234567890fedcba012345678 enter 0xfedcba01234567890fedcba012345678)

Thank you for helping stupid across the street! I was so stuck in other problems that I actually forgot this. Embarassing... Now it works with the 32-character key the modded Amazfit-app produced. Thx!
Your welcome. I missed this too so that's why i thought i would ask :laugh:
Finally. Sportsmodes with update
Sorry Im new here, i have a Amazfit Bip S and i love it so far but one thing that bothers me is the generic app icon when notification is received. Any workaround

Hey guys, I'm interested in this watch after I managed to sell the buggy gtr with it's trash GPS. Does this watch work correctly? GPS, tracking etc everything is functional?

What is the best app to use on Android for the Amazfit Bip S please?

I only know the official Amazfit app and the Gadgetbridge app (apart from watch face apps). The Gadgetbridge app is for those who are sensitive about their personal data. The official Amazfit app has some functionality advantages.
For instance, the Gadgetbridge cannot share the phone's GPS signal with the watch — other than the Amazfit app. That is a bit of a problem because it takes the watch a few minutes to find the GPS signals after you started the sports tracker. Distance and speed measuring only starts after the watch has found the signals; time count, however, starts before. That distorts average speed.
Also, retrieving the watch key for the Gadgetbridge app is a bit tricky.

"Amazfit BIP 1S" is written on the watch box. When I connect my watch to the Amazfit app I choose Bip s / bip lite s. And my watch has GPS as well. So, I think it is Bip lite s

Hello all,
I have just received my new amazfit bip (international version).
Unfortunately Hebrew notifications cannot be displayed on the watch.
I have tried to look for a solution in the web, but most of the results were posted several months ago and I could not find any solution for my problem.
Is there any solution for that?
Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you for you fast reply, unfortunately, the last time (at least the one that I have found) the bip was mentiond on the facebook page was couple of months ago.
In your attacked link I have found ROMs for the other amazfit versions, is there a solution for the bip? (Did I miss something?)
Thanks
Oh, sorry, I didn't notice you are talking about the Bip.
The XDA link is in no use to you.
Try to send a message to the FB page.

He is very knowledgeable and nice,
I put my money that if anyone would know how, he will be the guy.

Hi,
Pavel here, reporting for duty
Unfortunately, there is no solution for the Bip, not an official one and nothing on the non-officials ones as well.
you can load custom fonts into the watch, but the last try i had with that ended up with mirrored Hebrew, unusable, and on the 2nd flash it killed my Bip.
As sad as it might sound, I would accept my gloom future and the fact that it will probably NEVER will support Hebrew.

Hey,

Unzip it, and use "gadgetbridge" or "notify & fitness" to flash it as a custom firmware.
It worked for me.

Hi.
It's a nice surprise to see my name here
I recently made a "patch" for RTL support. It's not a firmware fix but at the app side, and should be at the next version of Gadgetbridge app.
If you wish, you can find an unofficial version of the app at the Facebook group from the link above.
Hi all,
I just ordered my Amazfit Bip. I used to have Mi Band 2 and Mi Band 3.
I flashed a firmware to support Hebrew on Mi Band 3 and it worked for some time, but eventually, working with a Pixel 3 and the Notification and Fitness app (without MiFit app) both bands lost their bluetooth capabilities and are not communicating with the outer world any more.
Scared of this, I intend to use gadgetbridge to flash the Hebrew font and then just work with Alert bridge and MiFit together. will that work?
Thanks!
should work, not in a perfect way, but should work
Is it possible to install the Hebrew fonts on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04)?
Any help / guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Aamazfit Pace, international version. (2.8.4.0)
i bought amazfit verge lite but it is in chinese version. i was wondering if anyone could help me getting the language to english
It wasn't released internationally yet, so you didn't do a wise choice... Try using the adb commands to set the language to EN, maybe it works, at least partially...

Verge lite is available for Europe costumers already - https://en.amazfit.com/verge-lite.html US web site don't have it yet to sell
So guys, I have Good news and Bad news...
I contacted amazfit support and I have a reply:
"Hi Amazfit User:
Thank you for contacting Amazfit. We apologize if the product caused you any inconvenience!
Could you please provide us the SN number and Model number on the back of the watch?
Did you order Chinese version or English version?
Please understand that the Chinese version watch language can not be changed. If you can not read Chinese, please contact the seller to return the watch.
Sincerely
"
That means that it is possible to use it in English.... but not in easy way -.-'
Now it is in the hand of this programmers Gods to help us xD
I don't remember exactly but you can do it by editing the build prop and reboot...it's 3 lines to edit I think...
One is change "local" to EU and the other line is basically change language...
Search for it here on the Amazfit thread

No verge lite is not android based, so he can not use build.prop. Probably, if we had the firmware we would be able to extract the res file and translate, in the same way we did for bip, but it is soon to say.
Ok didn't know that at all...I was thinking of buying the verge lite...Will there be any development our custom rooms for this watch I wonder...
I hope the OP gets it sorted.....
Can you add a custom dial

(verge lite)
I just bought it from china and only chinese language appear. I hope someone can share the way to solve this problem
Verge lite does not run Android as far as I know, but a proprietary OS like BIP, so don't waste your time with adb. A new Amazfit app 3.0 was released on PlayStore, if it doesn't work then you will have to wait until someone hack it like they did with BIP/Core (of course, it will void warranty).
It seems to be already an English firmware actually.
Don't ask me how they managed to get it.

I ordered the Verge Lite from Aliexpress at the end of June and just got it today and it's running English firmware. Manufacturer date was 07/2019.
I received my Verge Lite (Global version) yesterday to replace my BIP. So far so good, but after I connected the watch with the Mi Fit app it started an update to V1.3.2.0 and now it gets stuck on "updating Fonts". It fails every time and the only thing I can see on the watch is "Open the app and go to Software updates" so I can't use the watch anymore. Any ideas on how to handle this? Is a custom firmware already available?
Very bad experience with Amazfit and so far no customer support (no reply yet)
That's the problem with devices like BIP/Verge lite: once you get a problem the only way to try to workaround is waiting until the battery is full depleted and hope that it will start working again next boot. Or wait for a new firmware update and hope it is fixed.

I bought an international version of verge lite and I didn't have this problem. You could try to factory reset the verge lite, make sure you install english Mi Fit app (there are apk available somewhere here https://forum.xda-developers.com/search/forum/6606?query=mi fit apk)
And then try to sync it and see if the watch displays in english.

1. You bought an international version, that's why you didn't have the problem, obviously.
2. Watch should be paired with Amazfit Watch and not MiFit.

Same thing happened to me.
Purchased in Geekbuying, it was updated to V1.3.2.0 and after changing the sphere it was reboot. It stays in a loop of reboots and after a while it comes out updating fonts. I try to update them and it ends with error

1. Yes, I understand that but I do have the same watch, its just an issue with firmware which could be fixed by factory resetting. You can't know it unless you try it.
2. They're both official apps. My manual said to sync it with Mi Fit app.
Hi guys, I looked around first but I did not find anything... Is there anyway to run Alexa on a Verge if you are outside of the US? I thought simply about changing region on my phone but that's no longer an available option in Pie.

As i know official there is no any ways to get Alexa outside US, about changing region in smartphone and ect., as i know don't working that, method in which if you only changed language/region (this happening in various operating system versions, so PIE is not only in this case) i tried to understand how working at all Alexa (how it detecting my region), coz i got the same update with Alexa as many probably of us (Verge smartwatch). So the only confirmation which i got from Amazfit support, it's can be detecting by GPS and you can't change that. When will be available Alexa or any other assistants in others countries there is no any news and dates. It's possible to do something from developers sides? Well i'm not developer, but i guess only if you install 3rd parties software and ect. But i'm not sure, developers i think can answer better from theirs sides.
I am outside of US and it works IF you use an Amazfit account which you state as US
Then when you set up the watch after signing in to your Amazfit account you will find an option to setup the "US" Amazon account and then get Alexa capability.
I find it a bit sluggish to call up but it works

the key is the Amazfit account. it should be in a region which is Alexa supported I think. Just use another email address and create a new Amazfit account with US as the location

I tried, i created new account of Amazfit Watch app, i choice US region, i did factory reset of Verge and created new mail. Did not helped. Alexa is not still available. As i mentioned in some case Amazfit Support confirmed to me that Alexa is detecting by GPS, so you can try and further to change settings in smartphone/Verge, to create another account and ect., but if for you worked, must be something else. These method which you wrote did not wroked for me
What i did:
1. Created outlook account (which is US mail service)
2. Created new Amazfit Watch app account where i choice US location
3. I confirmed all new account
4. I did factory reset of Verge watch
5. I log in into these account/pair process
6. There is no Alexa, don't working any voice assistants

Yes. Can you do these screenshots/pictures?
From Verge watch:
1. Model from Verge watch with operating system version number.
2. Active Alexa on Verge screen (better is video, but will be great pictures too, it's depends you, what you can do)
From smartphone/Amazfit Watch app:
1. Smartphone's operating system version
2. Smartphone's region and language
3. Amazfit Watch app region (if this possible)
4. Amazfit Watch app version
All these sections which i mentioned screenshots/pictures or video at all.
By the way it's yours smartphone or/and watch is rooted? Is installed stock ROM and ect. (in both devices)?
As i mentioned in my past post, it's not enough to change only region/language of Amazfit Watch app/account and smartphone region/language. The same confirmed to me Amazfit support, in some case they confirmed to me that Alexa probably detecting location by GPS signal, which you can't disabled as i know in Verge model (i'm wrong?). Probably location is detected that you choosing weather location in Amazfit Watch app. How exactly detecting Verge watch region couldn't siad to me support, but idea and method which you wrote they rejected at all
P.S. Model of Verge i mean (for example) A1811 which is international version. I need this number. You can easily find this information in Verge settings.
I can't do this because my Verge is stock CN model with CN firmware. But I know people in Italy and Brasil using Alexa in EN without issues keeping the phone in English as well...

I got mine activated too. Latest Amazfit version both on watch and on phone, android 9, everything stock. I am logged in to my Amazfit account using Google, not using a separate Amazfit account and to activate Alexa I simply changed the language of my phone to English (US) and when I opened Amazfit it gave me a pop-up saying that now I can use Alexa, I never expected that to work this easy. My region for my Google account is Romania so the only thing that got it activated was changing the phone language to English (US), as I had it on UK previously.

I don't have time to try probably a fake method again which did not worked first time, which was rejected by manufactors worker...

I just posted about it, no need to try to change my opinion, i just asked a proof, if you can't post it, discuss is over, do you agree with me? It's ok for you, then it's ok for me too
It's your choice, changing simply the language of your phone and region is the easiest thing. Anyway, Alexa in Verge is pretty useless if you don't have other Alexa enabled things in your house, as it can't do too much.
PS, the manufacturer support will always say no, as it's not an officially available service, even though they might know workarounds.

If you read attention my post, i already mentione dthat i tried to change language in smartphone/watch (Verge), to create new account of Amazfit Watch app and ect., did not worked. So that's why i'm so negative about that.
About manufactors, well, i know that they will sya ofetn no, coz it's not official method to get Alexa, that's why i tried. But as i mentioned it's not working for me. I don't know why, maybe i doing something wrong, maybe it's just something else i have to do. One of you posted Google account and ect. In my smartphone always wokring GPS, in watch was choice my location in weather widget, also in a some case confirmed that location in watch can be detected by GPS in watch and ect. I havn't iPhone, which was mentioned too. Yes of course it's my choice, but come on have everybody have Alexa in theirs watch? I know what is voice assistant is, i had before i bought Amazfit Verge, Sony smartband talk, which have voice assitant too. I tried a lot of time Google Now (voice assitant) too and ect. I waiting that untill will be available in rest world. But say me honest how often you using voice assitant? It's a fun feature, but... it's not daily useful. I bought Verge for that, but in Sony's device i did not used so often assistant, but always is great to know that you device have it, sometime is need it. But without it Verge is not worst watch That's why i tried to get it, but if not working - well, i will try to wait untill Amazfit will do available for me too SImple

TBH it's just a fun feature. The response time is so sluggish I don't find it useful and hardly use it.
Little loss if you can't get it going on the watch.

Hi All,
i just bought my Amazfit GTR yesterday. Apparently was attract by its battery life and the design. Im having some problem on the Watch Face/ Online Watch Face. I can view all the 30 templates in Amazfit apps but it prompt " Update the firmware before you sync the watch face." I can see my GTR's firmware version is V0.9.7.00.
I tried to plug in the USB from watch to Mac, it only charging but doesn't appear on my Mac.
Any ideas how to resolve this?
Many thanks.

No, GTR does not run Android but a proprietary OS (RTOS).
Ok Thanks gtr works to reply notification sms mail ?

No, it doesn't either. Think of GTR as a round BIP with AMOLED display (or good looking Verge lite - not all plastic). Nothing else...
Ok i prefer my Pace
I love my new Amazfit GTR 3 Pro except for a few things.
I can't find a timer feature. There is a count down setting but it doesn't alarm at the end of the countdown. I used my old Versa as a timer all the time. Had anyone found a timer setting?
The watch calendar won't sync with (get data from) my Google calendar on my phone. Has anyone been able to pull data from their Android phone's Google calendar into the watch? I saw a review from GSMArena that stated they did this.
There doesn't seem to be a way to change notification or alarm tones. Unless I missed a setting some where.
I also noticed it is quite picky about song file formats. It won't recognize some some that I have ripped.
I am also a GTR 3 Pro owner and have the same problem with the calendar sync. I have tried everything but it just won't sync. The count down timer however sounds and vibrates if you turn on "notification sound" in the sound and vibration setting in the Zepp app. I don't think you can change notification and alarm tones. Waiting for the Notify for Amazfit & Zepp app to be compatible with GTR 3. It has a ton of extra options.

Well, I guess my countdown is broken. I have the notificaton sound and vibrate setup already. I don't get an alarm or vibration when the countdown is done and sometimes the countdown will stop a 1 second and not finish. I have to use the alarm function and create an alarm with the amount of time that I need.
I've rebooted the watch but that didn't fix my countdown issue.
That doesn't sound good. If a factory reset doesn't fix the problem then a return is your only option I guess. Good luck!
Hi, guys. I'm currently staying in China and bought GTR 3 Pro. I chose China as a region in Zepp app as well. To my big surprise the watch is fully Chinese lang. I couldn't find any option to switch over to Eng neither in Zepp nor in watch settings. Any workaround?

In the Zepp app under watchsettings you have "system language". Here you can change the watch language.

There is no such option, mate. I know it should be and where to find - nothing in there, nor in watch itself.
When I set up my watch I didn't have an option to set up region. I could choose between a bunch of languages and I chose “follow phone language (Swedish). Since the watch doesn't support Swedish it automatically chose English. Didn't you have that option during setup?

I set up a region while registering in the Zepp app. When was setting up the watch itself I didn't have any requests to follow device's lang or anything lang changing related. I contacted a customer support, they said it's a domestic version and it can't be set into any other lang but Chinese. Which is weird.
What a bummer! Can you return it?

Yeah, have already applied for it. Here in China when you buy something there is a rule of 7 days no reason return. Amazfit representatives told me that I need to order it from Amazon haha

Amazfit Zepp app doesn't show watch faces in the store, and Alexa doesn't work on my new GTR 3Pro unless my phone is connected to an external WiFi network! Everything was fine with my Amazfit GTS 2 watch! 4g and 5g is receiving data just fine as always! Any thoughts?
Question about BT connection on GTR3
Hi at all,
I bought this smartwatch and I configured it using Poco X3 NFC and Zepp app.
In Bluetooth I see 2 device:
Amazfit GTR 3 Pro and Amaxfit GTR 3 Pro-2E08
Why so? Do you have this double BT connection too?
the trouble is that when I turn on the BT only the first automatically connect to app, for the other (2E08) I've to connect manually.
thanks in advance
Hi guys,

First bluetooth is to connected the watch to the phone (zepp) and the second one is to connect the watch to answer to the calls. You can accept the first only or both of them.
I've got the answer from support team:
"Thank you for contacting Amazfit/Zepp!
The screen lock function is not supported on GTR 3 Pro for now. Sorry about that!
We appreciate your feedback and thoughts. Your email will be shared with the team as we look for ways to improve our product and the user experience.
And we have a list of the features in development and the priorities we aim to achieve with each step of the development process, and so we will continue to gradually offer updates as soon as we can. Hopefully, we can make this available in future updates, but no firm dates have been set yet. Please stay tuned."
So we have to wait for new updates
I'm in shock how fast support works
"We have released new firmware today, which adds the screen lock function. please update your watch to the latest version. And you can add it : settings>preference>control center>+>screen lock"

Thanks,
The problem is that when I connect the Gtr, the BT for answer to the calls, do not connect automatically, and I've do this manually.
Is it normal or it's a bug?

I don't use anymore the Bt answer, is very energy intensive. But the few days i used it, the second bluetooth connection was automatic for me.
