Amazfit Bip FW - Amazfit

Has anyone managed to decode or read the amazfit bip fw files?
Or better yet, has anyone managed to write custom fw for it?

Watching this thread as I'd like to change the workout screens to make the font more readable while running.

I'm pretty sure you can already do that with just the normal fw files and a custom res file.

Thin fonts - WP 7.8 ROMs

Hi all,
didi you notice that every WP 7.8 ROM has too thin fonts in same areas? Let's say that I've noticed few - 3G and the rest icons next to the network level, live icon new message, mail notification, in-mail text, when writing a text message....etc.
Is it a bug or standard? I ask because for me, as a designer by profession, it doesn't look good at all - it looks ike a mistake..

fonts
I have seen that thread and tried to do it, but fonts somehow don't get replaced... I have no problem with the characters, only with thckness of the particular parts of UI, as I stated above.
EDIT: I found original WP7 Segoe fonts and replaced them all with WP Device Manager.
Thanks!
Can you tell us how you did that please?

Fonts
Sorry,
I didn't see any new questions 'till now. There's a thread link few posts up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1898893 and it explains what fonts you need to change. If you have ever instaled (and I'm sure you did) WP SDK Tools, there are all original WP fonts installed with it on your PC. Just extract needeed fonts from post above to some other location (temp) on your PC and install Windows phone device manager, gain acces to your phone, open windows directory on your phone, and just upload fonts to your phone. For me, sometimes it works, sometimes not, don't know why. Ypu can then refresh the view in device manager and see if your fonts (WP Segoe...) updated - if they have the date you transfered them to the phone.
If they do overwrite your device's crooked fonts, just disconnect, reboot phone (soft) and it's done. Even after that I found one more problem, fonts when you are writing message or email are still thinner, but not as much as before. Suppose if you edit segoeui.ttf and segoeub.ttf (bold) there's no visible difference, and that's why message text seems thiner when it should be bold.
Hope this answers your questions.
P.S. I have flashed TGZ's "stock: ROM from 1st October and it doesn't have font problems, but it's not filled with Nokia apps.. suits me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1910276

hi abaksunovic
thanks for the explanation. funnily enough i also jumped ship to tgz's rom as i heard that it had no font glitches. seems good so far, just seem to have inherited the calendar not showing entries properly bug but that's less annoying than the fonts cheers si

creating watch faces on PC? (uncomfty on phone)

I have Watchmaker Pro, and I am trying some faces.
Is there a program for creating watch faces on the computer?
It is quite unconfortable on the phone.

Yeah. I have a soft brick right now. But I have player911 doing a system backup for me. So we can get backup and running.
I use "Styler" on the phone. It is pretty easy to move elements around. It is also realtime, so you can make fine adjustments on the fly. Faces are kind of hard to use because some themes are built for different resolutions and thus appear "squished" or outside of the boundaries.
Styler does a great job at giving me exactly what I want.
I know it isn't exactly the answer to your question (PC watch face designers) but a solution for you to try.

Pace music player order

Hi All,
I didn't find a way to define the song playing order.
Any chance to use playlist or filenaming rules or alternative player app while running?
The builtin player has only random, repeat and repeat-1 modes. If you want anything different, installing an music APK on watch should work, but as the watch has very little memory it may interfere with other functions and stability. Check another thread with apps compatible with Pace or try to install some by yourself and report back, the more the lightweight the better.
Did you find a solution?
Hi did you ever find a solution to this?
I badly wanna be able to make playlists in my amazfit pace!
Thanks!
New music player app
I had exactly the same problem, so i created my own app. You can see the code on github and download the .apk file. Just search for "Amazfit-Music-Player" on github

Hi I cant download apk from githHub
I may be a bit late, but I think there's a solution to this. At least, it works for me.
Just copy the songs one by one in the desired order, and they will be played like that from the watch app.

Amazmod is an all in one app with a lot of feature as APK install, file manager, notification manager etc and to work correctly you need to have service installed on watch and amazmod app from PlayStore on phone

Yes manually (from web site to add to watch folder) is much more easier as yours method. Just need to connect and to add, done. With Amazmod need 3rd parties app (in smartphone), add apk and install it in the watch and ect. Too much work

WITH COMPUTER:
1. Download Watch Face
2. Connect Verge's cable
3. Add watch in cable
4. Transfer (add) Watch Face from computer to Verge folder
5. Enjoy, done
WITH SMARTPHONE:
1. Go to Google Play and find app
2. Install app into smartphone
3. Find watch face*
4. Install watch face
5. Enjoy, done
*I did not checked and tested yours app, but i tried the same way to install Watch Faces with other app from Watch Faces for Amazfit watches web site. With this app was needed to install first amazmod app to watch and only then i can install Watch Faces, it's extra step and is not confortable, my opinion. I think with yours everything is the same.
Second thing which is taste question, but if we talking about me i have to say that: i guest you are from Italy, cos in yours app and web site all or most Watch Faces is created with Italy logo, Italy's football team and many others brands from Italy or related. Most Watch Faces or all i don't like. Are you still think with yours apps is still better as via computer?

Taking into account that this app contains watchfaces from other places like amazfit.marekzima.com, but with this horrible logo, I would not say "Italian do it better".
Especially when it comes to the great watchface BEW DIGITAL, which has been spoiled by the application of the logo, losing all the balance of its design.

GreatFit watch face is stolen from GreatApo member in yours web site http://www.vergeit.it/#/apk and you crying here about stolen watch faces from yours site? Really? Which by the way from 3 apk watch faces is most downloaded. So maybe stop to claim here like little child, coz in yours "italian doing better" web site Italian boy stealing from others too.
P.S. If will be my purpose i will remove you from this web site at all, coz you only here blame others for crime which doing or doing yours web site, you provocative strife here, also you slander others and offending. So maybe stop to be victim here when you are reason why at all this dispute is. I just posted that i don't see reason to install yours app when all watch faces are in web site, you started about mystic spamming and ect. So cowboy from Italy stop, i'm not guy which with you must to discuss at all, believe me... Good luck and bye... I'm done with you

Stratos 3 altitude workout report on amazfit app

Hello,
i'm facing a strange issue since 4.2.3 firmware (same with 4.2.4):
the workout report on the wtch is good (altitude is ok) but on amazfit app it begins at -20000m for 20/30 secondes then a drop to the good one after.
check my picture it is unreadable.
sometime the preview is good but if i click on + to get details i have the same begin at -20000m for 20s.
do you have the same?
i also noticed during a workout if the watch is unlocked i have an altitude (230m for ex) then when the screen locks i have another one (240m) then if i unlock the watch again it's back to 230m... there's always differences depending on the screen state
the report on the watch is good. Only in amazApp seems faulty (for Altitude) all other logs are OK but i can not decripte my workout altitude...
Do you have those bugs?
I have the same issue with the Amazfit app and the altitude with Stratos 3. I also own the Notify & Fitness app and there the altitude graph seems pretty accurate 100% of times.
I also notice the wrong value only happens sometimes and depending with the sport I did on my watch.
thanks for the reply.
What i've notice also is that in Ultra Mode there is no pbs
i've sent diag to the support they told me they give them to developpment team.
Hope they'll fix this in next FW /AmazfitApp.
I have the same issue. It is a bug on the Amazfit app graph. See attached the same workout synced to Amazfit/Stava/Endomondo/Stratos

yeah but there's another bug: on your watch the elevation is begin at 16m up to 24m and ends at 2...
on strava/endomondo/amazapp the highest is 2m and lowest -17m ?????? and you begin at -5 m?
i have the exactly the same differences between wath the watch says and what is synched.... (anyway data of the watch are always good)
Big synchronization bug i think
Yes I didn't pay attention to the actual numbers. There is indeed a constant shift in the exported values. The height values from the watch look more correct as there is only one area below sea level in town and I didn't run there
Hi Guys,
I have exactly the same bug on my Stratos 3. I have been able to compare and :
> Datas shown on the watch during the activity are OK
> Datas shown on the watch report (after activity) are OK
> Datas on the Amazfit App are wrong : Elevation is different from the watch (usually lower than the reality, compared with a "level line map"), and I have the "-20000" problem on the graph
> Datas exported to Strava are wrong​
I send almost everyday the reports to Amazfit using the app, I hope they will fix this very annoying issue !
I need to try in the Ultra Mode to be able to compare. However accuracy of the GPS will be much less (1 point per minute vs 1 point per second using normal mode)

Thanks Winni21, however I haven't unlocked Bootloader on my watch, and I'm a bit afraid to do so regarding the warranty. Nevertheless, this ROM looks much more complete than the one we have !
Are you thinking about trying to install it ?
Same for me... That's why if someone could try and tell us...
After 2 months of silence here is what I received today:
