Amazfit BIP - Installed Firmware via gadgetbridge - Bricked - Amazfit

Hi,
I installed the 9.14 firmware as instructed on a previous thread.
The uploading of the res and fw file completed in the amazfit bip. However the amazfit reboot and its not opening since.
12hrs already passed and still its not turning on.
What I noticed is that the bluetooth signal can be detected by other phones. Then I can connect via Ble Scanner but it will disconnect.
Is there a way to force flash the firmware?
Thank you.

Same problem here.

Same. Anyway solution so far?

Only one idea: Delete Gadgetbride, restart your Phone, install Mi Fit-App, Switch your Phone language to english (If isn't) and try to install Firmware again.
HTH

I had the same problem, i was desperate and ready to throw it away, but i finally did what urs1956 said and it worked!! (Only thing is that i paired it with an other device at first).

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Amazfit.

Can you please send us a screenshot of your watch screen?
If the screen turned off, please charge it to have a try.
If it doesn't work, please remove the device from the charger, put it on the table, make it untouched for 24-48 hours to let the battery drains and then charge it to see if it solves the issue.

Amazfit BIP bricked after firmware update: Hi,
I did a firmware update which apparently failed as since then the watch will show a black screen only.
The watch is discoverable in the android bluetooth settings, however, I cannot pair or connect to it.
Is there any way of "forcing" an update via bluetooth?
Kind regards

That same answer from support.
wait for battery drains and then charge it << Not resolve this problem.
I'm wait sinc Last month until now. It's sleeping.

Hello,

I saw there is a Winbond 25Q64FWIQ flash onboard, so i'm wondering if anyone has a flash dump to try to reflash mine with a chip programmer

Bricked Amazfit midong / cor ?

Hello there!
I upgraded my midong to the last CN firmware by mistake and I tried to downgrade to 1.0.5.60 English using notify&fitness app
The process was shown as completed and successful, but my midong is working with a black screen and it doesn't connect by Bluetooth.
Anyone with the same problem?
Is there any way to soft/hard reset and install fw again?
BLE Scanner detects the midong but its unable to discover services/connect
Thx guys for your help! :crying:
The black screen is because the correct file is missing (thats no problem)!
But have you tried with a few devices? Maybe your main flash device has a bluetooth mac adress conflict?!

Did you get any solution to the black screen. My amazfit cor stucked in this black screen after a firmware downgrade, and It does not connect through bluetooth.
Hey I have a similar problem too.... black screen, oddly I can see it via Bluetooth but cannot connect. I am at odds on trying to figure out another way to send the missing file. Any other ideas on this?
mine got stuck while trying to do its own update, it keeps trying to connect and appears like it does when you accept the prompt on the screen but then the app kicks it back and says it didnt connect...its 2 weeks old and they have no solutions for this ?

Mine also started doing this yesterday. I've had mine for 6 months now. Wonder if it was maybe some update that caused it? Have you found a solution yet?
Solution
After upload a watchface i also got the black screen
For me the solution was open mi fit go to profile/amazfit cor\display settings\ make any change in the items order and save

Exactly same problem here. It did its own update in March and then can't pair it up to updgrade or downgrade anymore. Bricked.
Working again
So my Amazfit Cor is working again. I let the battery drain (almost took 2 months) and after the restart, the pairing worked again.

AMAZFIT pace 1.3.8a : no activity nor GPS available to choose

HI EVERYone,
Since i did the update 1.3.8a with my Amazfit Pace I can no longer access to the activity widgets... there are no activity offered! Just remains the step option... it does not even record the KM
Did that happen to one of you? Do you have any solution to fix this ??
Thanks a lot
Very old firmware, INTL version is already in version 2.8..3.0 (WOS2)... Why didn't you update? You may need to use an old version of Amazfit and reset watch's data (unpair and pair again, but do not restore old data to watch when pairing again) if you want to keep 1.3.8.0.
OH Ok... i had it for Xmas and when I turned it off for the first time it asked me to put on this version , I had no idea...
i did not understand your advise for pairing/ unpairing.. may you have a tutorial or anything likely that could help me to proceed this way ?
Thanks a lot !!

Simply update to latest version, and also make sure you have latest version of Amazfit Watch companion app on phone. With time, you should find/realize what is/how to unpair and pair.

Amazfit Bip - Display flash/error - bricked...

Hi,
i used the App Notify and Fitness - and update the language Paket on my Watch. After connect to the Mifit App, the language Pack was updatet again. After that, the Display from the watch shows a blank Screen with flashes up sometimes.
An update with other firmware - and back to the original Firmware with Ressources and Language Pack doesn't work.
Here is an video, that shows the flashes on Display.
Who can help me???
I can't post a link.
youtube + com / watch?v=BVqoI0WP9Ow
(+=.)
It seems like the watch is constantly rebooting or sth similar (I don't own a bip). Unless it boots into a stable state where you can connect on it through bluetooth to push an update, I don't think you can fix it (at least not without performing a surgery).
Is It connecting to phone over bluetooth?

Firmware update issue Amazfit GTS

Hello guys,
I've just purchased an amazfit GTS and connected it to the Zepp App. A firmware update begins and the stop a few seconds later with a screen "Update impossible". I've tried to reboot the watch, dissociate it but it's still not working. The watch is otherwise in English while I need it in french..
Thank you for help
Even though I have my GTS for some time now I just got a similar issue I think. Update failed mid the process and couldn't connect anymore. What helped me was 1) unpair the watch in Zepp app 2) unpair BT device in Android settings (assuming it's there) 3) factory reset the watch (either by the entry in Settings or long press the button if it shows a QR code). Basically a complete reset. After I did that the firmware update continued and finished successfuly.

gtr 47 please open the app, and select "check for updates"

Help me!!
gtr 47 please open the app, and select "check for updates" on the watch device page to continue update.

Hello again, Yes, you can download Notify & Fitness for Amazfit(Green Logo), You Download from here (XDA Developers) a previous version to downgrade, and when you complete, you run again Zepp oficcial, for update.
If the downgrade can't complete, select to update from notify, and choose stock firmware!
in many cases can't update correct to the latest firmware.
Also If you have mi fit in the phone, uninstall it, because the devise gets confused with both (Zepp and Mi Fit) and if you have the magiacal unicorn Zepp Edition, you should have the online update setting on.

I had the same problem in 2 cases, but with notiffy and after some tries, it managed to downgrade the fw file, and when I connected in zepp it updated the fonts succesfully.
But it took over 3-4 times in each case through notify.
Hello, could you let me know the version you used to downgrade and where I can download it.
Thanks

I don't have mifit, I had zepp aex 5.4.0 and the watch on version 1.3.7.17. Trust when I tell you I have try everything. Downgrade all version, install all app version since the watch came out, and nothing woks. I use notify and fitness to do does downgrades and always fail at fonts, I had some luck getting the phone to work, but I went crazy and did the update to the Last version and then again the problem with the fonts. Open to suggestions
well, i guess its the end, after the new update 1.3.7.17 i cant dowgrade to any version. always fail, im trying to downgrade to 1.3.4.14.
News, I managed to get the watch in to home screen and use it with all functions. The problem, I can barely see the screen, it's a glitch I think, I can unly do this with the charger connected and sending two notifications to the watch and pressing the power button. I can use the watch and do everything but when I disconnect the charger or leave it for a time back to "please open the app and select check for updates". Trying to do something new I'll be posting soon.

As you describe it, there are many issues to the device, there is a chance to be a faulty device.
Contact huami if you are still in guarantee.
for the one case I rolled back the firmware, the problem was that it didn't updated the fonts correctly, and the screen was going on and of instantly, but when I managed to rollback, and update the new firmware successfully , the problem was corrected.
Also when you go for official last update (if you rollback) choose official Zepp, Not AEX or Magical unicorn's.
And Don't disconnect the device from app or bluetooth, while the hole procedure (All files) are updated.
Also you can download a previous official version of zepp, and it will update automatically the firmware that was distributed on the specific version of zepp

thaks for the reply. i have this in mind, i can downgrade to any version with notify and fitness, maeby if i go to the version when the problem happens i can manage to update the firmware. ill give it a try.
Can we stop the Zepp app from auto updating? When I last opened the app it instantly triggered my watch update without warning me. The worsts part was that my battery was low near 10% which is very risky.
My condition is worse than yours...
I'm also stuck on the same screen as in the picture you sent & I can not install anything.
If I try to update anything or even upload a design background to the watch, I get an error message and the watch restarts. :crying:
