I'm also waiting for someone who knew if it's possible. I currently own the Chinese version with ColorOS installed and is also wondering if it is possible to install a Global ROM with WearOS.
Same question for me too...

Hi guys,
I'm waiting for Global ROM too, but I'm still struggling in connecting the color OS version to my samsung S20. How did you do that? Without Wear OS, right?

First of all you need to register an account through oppo website as doing it in the coloros app requires you to have a China mobile number.
Once the account is made download the coloros app using the QR code from the watch.
In the app login using the account you made.
From my experience the coloros which is available in the app store could not connect to the watch. It required the specific coloros app from the QR code given by the watch during setup.

Hi Omar, what do you mean by being not able to connect the Chinese version of Oppo watch to your S20 or any Android phone? I was probably the first in Canada buying Oppo watch in March and after a few month I found the way to connect it to my Galaxy S10 phone

With the Chinese version there is no way it can connect to WearOS. You will basically use ColorOS especifically the one that it asks you to download after using the QR code given by the watch.

There is the Chinese version of the watch and there is this global version. The Chinese version uses ColorOS while the global version uses WearOS. It is a bit tricky to setup the Chinese version of the watch as some of the instructions are in Chinese and the QR code takes you to a site different from Playstore to get the ColorOS. However the global version is a lot easier to connect as its using the WearOS available in playstore.

And you have to register and create an account first using your email address at Oppo's website before continuing with the setup. Once an account is created use the email address as the login information instead of a mobile number as you will need a chinese mobile number to continue.
Hi,
I Also bought a Chinese Oppo Watch (unfortunately). I have a Oppo phone (Model CPH1877) and connected the watch by downloading the "Health app"' using the QR code on the watch. Some apps on the watch are Chines some are in English (I have put the language on the watch on English).
Notifications from the phone to the watch are working perfectly but the Chinese app store is limited. I also mis a payment method on the watch. Only for Chinese banks.
Would love to flasch the international ROM on the watch but don't now how to do that and I can't find an international ROM for the watch.
Anyone ideas???

I also apparently got the Chinese version of the Oppo Watch (46mm) from Bludiode.com in England. I thought I was getting the international version. I have tried to connect it to Wear OS using my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, but it connects and gets about 1/8th of the way through "getting watch information"....then stops.
How did you get your watch to run Color OS? I have tried to use the Health App it wants me to download, use my e-mail address...then it wants a phone number? I've tried suing my USA number, but that doesn't work. I've read other posts where people say that you need an international number for that to work? How did you get past that step?
Any help would be appreciated as I'm sitting here with a $300 paperweight right now. Would love to connect it to something and have it work....at all.

Hi skersh,
I have an Oppo phone as well. So I registered an Oppo account when I got the phone. Since you don't have an Oppo phone I quess you need to register an Oppo account with a Chinese phonenumber. When the watch is connected to your phone via the Chinese health app (Hey Tap Health for Wear OS) the watch works perfect.
Good luck.

Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate it. Any ideas on how I can get a "chinese phone number" just to make this watch work? Or, would purchasing a cheap Oppo phone, then registering that phone and getting and Oppo account make the watch work that way?
Just trying to weigh my options here.
I did contact the seller in England and told them that they sold me the "Chinese version" and not the "Global or International Version" and have asked for an exchange or refund. No word back from them yet.

Hi Steve,
I would try to find a Chinese phonenumber. Perhaps Google can help? If you buy a cheap Oppo phone, the watch will be connected with that phone and not woth your Samsung Note. Can you register an Oppo acoount with Oppo in England?
I have found this video on YT. Maybe it helps?

Laurens,
Thank you and thanks for the video link! I'll purchase an Oppo Phone to connect to the watch. I'm glad that you also told me that it won't connect with my Samsung Note, that answered another question I was going to pose. Perhaps, I'll at least be able to connect and use the watch with the Oppo phone and in the meantime, hope that a bootloader is unlocked later on and allows Wear OS to be flashed to it sometime soon!
Appreciate the help! Thanks again!

Laurens,
Thank you VERY much for that video! After watching it, I used my phone number (USA) instead of trying to use an e-mail address to set up and account.
IT WORKED!
I was able to connect to my Oppo Watch using my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, after downloading the Health app (from scanning the QR Code on my Oppo Watch) I got it synced up and it's working fine! I did have to use a second phone using Google Translate to deciper some of the setup screens, but I'm getting notifications, I've picked a watch face and everything seems to be working just fine!
I really appreciate your help and for now, will use my Note 20 Ultra with the Oppo Watch.
Take care and have a great rest of your weekend!

Hi,
Glad you.managed to get the watch working with your S20. I am.also considering getting the oppo watch Chinese version and I currently use a Samsung note 10 plus.
What I wanted to ask you is that when the oppo watch is tracking your fitness (steps, workouts) via the health app in coloros, does it also show up on the Samsung health app on your S20?
I currently have the Samsung galaxy watch and naturally it's all in sync with the phone health app but I hate the watch and would love to get the oppo watch in stainless steel!
Would appreciate any info thanks

hi all:
I bought a moto 360 2015 watch in China, where google apps are blocked. So Lenovo offers a localized version which replaces Google play android wear app with their own localized version, however, there are very few apps in that market(http://www.lenovomm.com/).
I tried to download the original android wear and found that I can download apps from google play, but still there is one problem: the chinese version watch replay google now with a Chinese voice command app called Chumenwenwen. I found that if I use the original android wear to pair with the watch, my voice could not be recognized because Chumenwenwen did not make a connection with the android wear app.
So the problem here is that if I use the localized android wear app, then I can not use apps from google play, but if I use the original app, I can not use the voice command app. Is there a workaround?
Unlock the bootloader and Root it, then using ADB install Google Now and any other thing necessary for the watch to communicate with the phone
hi, i wanna ask if you can connect your watch and use it with the original android wear app?

I got the Chinese version as well. Since the Chinese version rom recognize Google apps and refuse to sync. I think the only way to use Google Apps is to flash the international rom. But atm I don't think I can.

I gave my watch back today for a full refund. Will buy one in Switzerland next month.

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.

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

If my smartphone is android?
should work whether iOS or Android
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.

My method? Where did you see me explaining any method? I simply asked you a question. If you don't want to trust my opinion it is up to you, but I am sure your attitude won't take you very far...

Don't be so sensitive, i just asked a proof, as i mentioned in internet full rumors/fake methods and ect., how to get any or other things/features and ect. I did not wrote nothing bad, if this is so hard to do it's ok, i just don't believe you, coz i tried and did not worked for me, also was rejected in a some case this method (if you want you can call it how you want, i named it as method) from Amazfit support. Did i wrote something wrong?

No, it is not a method. And yes, you are wrong.

I don't have time to post screenshots/photos. That's the only thing that I had to do, I just disabled it again now by changing phone language back to English - UK. I am 100% positive Amazfit servers don't do any kind of location check to enable Alexa.

"a way, technique, or process of or for doing something" - to get Alexa in not US market by changing language, location and ect, is not "a way, technique, or process of or for doing something"?

I don't have time to try probably a fake method again which did not worked first time, which was rejected by manufactors worker... It's ok if worked for you, i just wrote my experience about that, guys, it's ok if you got positive result, i got negative. 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
Hey guys, chill
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.

I just got the Amazfit Pace watch. I wanted to download Amazfit watch App but Google Play store shows that my device isn't compatible with the version of the App. So it is impossible to download this application.
I have Xiaomi Mi9. And I live in France.
Could you please help me solve this problem?
android version: 9 PKQ1.181121.001
Regards
Just download the apk yourself from apkmirror or something like that.

thank you
I have a same problem with mi9t. Downloaded the app from web, but I notifications on watch doesnt work any more.
hi quys I bought today amazfit gtr smartwatch and google play writes me the same "your device isn´t compatible with this version", and I can´t use watch without this amazfit app because on the screen on watches is only qrcode for downloading application which I can´t download. Please help me if you can
I have the same problem...just bought a Huawei P30 and i cant download the amazfit watch app for stratos2 the google play says that my device is not compatible...Any Help please???
Trying to use Amazfit Verge with a Note 8 (United States) and I cannot download the app via PlayStore. I've tried sideloading 3.4 and that wouldn't open, also tried 3.2 which opens but won't pair...
I found a solution. Use google translate and download and install app from chinese miui site:
http://app.mi.com/details?id=com.huami.watch.hmwatchmanager
Everything works again for me
Just install the Mi Fit app?
Why the hell is this app "incompatible"?
I cant download the app from playstore for both Xiaomi Mi Pie 9 Phone and Samsung Galaxy Lollipop 5.1 phone. Both are grayed out. I thought there is an error on my site.
But from reddit discussion I found out that the app was kicked from Play store, so it is now globally not available in the western world. Privacy issuses? What is amazfit doing?

Amazfit is aware of the issue. They're fixing it on their servers. Meanwhile download the apk yourself.

It crashes when entering activities.

I did manage to connect a GW5 Pro with Oppo Find N. It took me half a day of trial and error but is doable.
There are a lot of threads in reddit on how to do it...

I managed to connect it with the link in this thread but it doesn't help. Won't update any health app i try, Samsung health, Google fit or my fitness pal.
I have Find N ,and galaxy watch 4 Classic, full connected without Samsung pay, all other it's running.
But sometimes it's disconnected and in a few minutes reconnect itself....
Some one know how to install global ROM?
