Hello everyone,
Currently the available commands/API we can use for the creation of a *.wfz watch face is very limited. We can create in-line digital clocks through images (can't separate hours from minutes), normal clocks and very limited widgets (steps, wather, battery etc). What if we could patch HuamiWatchFaces.apk in order to make it support a wider range of commands?
We will need to:
- Decompile the HuamiWatchFaces.apk (with the odex file):
I managed to deodex the whole system of stockfield (US 1.3.5) using this software tool.
So, this is the HuamiWatchFaces.apk deodexed: View attachment HuamiWatchFaces-Stockfield-1.3.5-Deodexed.apk
Using APK Studio you can decompile it and see the *.smali files. OR
Using dex2jar we convert the classes.dex file (unzip the attached) to *.jar : View attachment classes-dex2jar.jar
which we can open and read with jd-gui
- Change the code to provide a better API (ability to change minutes position, widgets with custom images of percents etc)
We must read the java code and change the smali...
- Repack back to apk OR provide a patch for the apk
What i have found until now:
(see file: classes-dex2jar.jar\com\huami\watch\watchface\widget\TimeDigitalWidget.class)
- AM/PM are drawn outside of the screen (position x 203, y 1). We could create some xAm and yAm parameters BUT currently they are no READ from watch.xml + they are not passed to the approprite function
- Different position of hours and minutes exists but parameters are not read and they are calculated based on the width and the time position
- The indicator ":" is always turned on (parameter: mEnableIndicator), it needs to be read first
- We could enable the display of seconds... (parameter: mDrawSeconds), it needs to be read first
- Parameters are read in file: classes-dex2jar.jar\com\huami\watch\watchface\util\WatchFaceConfig.class and declared in classes-dex2jar.jar\com\huami\watch\watchface\model\WatchFaceModuleItem.class
What do you guys think?

Where on the device is that APK located? I'd like to take a look.
Yo can take a look to the PACEfied Watch Face app here.
Let me know if you want to take a look to latest 1.3.5 US Stock Watch Face app too.
We would like the stock 1.3.5 version too, since pacefield is the Chinese version
I have pulled the one from stockfield from the temp folder of your installer. I suppose its the same with the official right?

Maybe a Good reference wfz file is the "night run" wfz, because it's the only one witch show the seconds even in standby if you reactivate the watch using the automatic Wrist spin.
Only think about
BTW is there any stuff to do with I can support you? Have only a little bit of xml knowledge.
Excellent work, this can help to modify watchfaces with percentage bars, and increase sphere creation possibilities

That's what I thought in the start, but the default watch faces are not *.wtz files. They are programmed in the APK.

Hi, nice weather
can u tell me where i get
Requires: http.dll, formlib.dll, FilesEx.dll
also need: .NET3.5 and NETCFv35.Messages.EN.cab
hope can add few features:
WIND <- this one pls
RealFeel <-this one no rush
Presure & ETC
really nice, how about an addition for maps, just the like marsware's weather panel if you've ever used it, there they ask for the URL of the map image and they just keep fetching it.
Doesent work:Error Loading Program
Pocket Weather is the commercial name of SBSH's app....
You'd better find another name for this soft...
Why not :
Pocket Hurricane
Pocket Forecast
TTWWY : Take The Weather With You
TTWWU : Take The Weather With U
T2W2U : Same, but more like modern apps... A_C
Hope this will help...

If we already have Marsware that doesn't need NET CF3.5, why not just keep this one nice and simple.
Once youo start adding features galore it just get too resource hungry (memory!)

Sorry about that - I did not use the correct compiler options when compiling to the Pocket PC platform. I have recompiled and the DLLs were merged into the executable.
I will have to troubleshoot the CF3.5 - I didn't target that framework so it should not asking for that. It may be related to the missing DLLs issue, since both require the B4PPC compiler to use "optimized" options.
I have re-uploaded into post #1 - thanks for testing.

Thanks! I like "Pocket Forecast" and will use that (if it's not in use already). I wrote a wiki application called "Pocket Wiki" so I wanted to stick with the same naming convention.
I don't want to use any application names similar to the great programs A_C writes. I'm not worthy.

I uninstalled Microsoft CF3.5 on my PDA and ran the updated ppcWeather (11/14/08 v.18) - it works for me. That said, applications seem to always work on the developer's systems all the time so that isn't much of a test.
Could you please retest with the updated version?
Thanks to everyone for their help and feedback.

Thanks for catching that.
I just tested that and that seems to be a new bug after I recompiled with the "optimized settings" - I am not sure what is causing this because the desktop version doesn't do this. Same code, different target environments.
The weather.ini settings themeDir, httpTimeout, and refreshInterval are getting blanked, but the location ids are not. This is strange...
I am going to have to check with the Basic4ppc support team to see why this is doing this.
Now i got zip code working need some setting
need Theme [default]
but still no icon
LOL need move \theme\default\condition folder out to \theme\
should work like charm and also the theme.ini i dont is that cause

The code is reading a form textbox variable for the settings that were getting blanked out - I'm not sure why some are ok and others are not. As a work-around, I added code to check to see that there is a value for the form textbox before saving it. Uploaded v.19 and am pursuing this on the B4PPC forums.
Thanks for the testing and feedback!

The first line in the "weather.ini" file should be "themeDir=default". If it says "themeDir=" then won't find the weather icons.

Hi!
Any developer out there who would make a little change at an existing apk(xml)?
Best regards!
still searching...
what type of change?
if you mean adding a new element to the xml i think that you cannot because then you need to rebuild (compile and especially pre-compile) the apk.
but if you are talking about changing some values of an already existing object that may work.
What apk ? And what do you want changed ? Need to post a little more detail if you expect an answer. It would also help if you upload the apk.

What type of apk ? Is it for GB or ICS ? what is your target platform ? If it is for GB I can do it . But not in deep . If you tell me what exactly you want to do , I can help you. PM Me.
Thanks for your answers!!!
I'll try to explain it:
It's an hotspot widget, which allows to turn on Wifi Hotspot by just clicking the toggle.
When clicking the toggle, Hotspot is "starting", that means it's not ready but on the way. When Hotspot has fully starting has finished and is available to be used there is another toggle icon.
So, what is missing right now, is, that after pressing the toggle the indicator graphic shows "starting".
Hmm, my english isn't very good, but i'll give the best to make it understandable. Therefore a made two screenshots and add the graphic which should appear when having pressed the toggle and before the toggle has changed to the one displayed at the second screenshot:
So, what has to be changed, is - to my opinion - the parameters for appwidget_settings_ind_mid_c.9.png - so that the attached graphic is displayed.
I have to mention that i already modified the apk by changing stat_sys_tether_wifi_off and stat_sys_tether_wifi_on.

To decompile I need your framework apk.
I only have the apk i attached. The Widget was downloaded from the market (free).
Ok, i made new screenshots to explain:
1.) Hotspot "Off":
2.) Hotspot "starting":
3.) Hotspot "On":
When "Tethering oder Hotspot aktiv" is displayed (=starting modus, second screenshot) in the status line after pressing the toggle, there should appear this
instead of this

Check the attached file whether it working or not. You have some problem with images . Then do not appear properly.
Thanks, but nothing changed. It's still like in the 3 screenshots above.
EDIT:
Oh, i forgot to mention, that changes must affect drawable-mdpi as the device (Sonyericsson Xperia Active has only 320x480 pixel screen resolution!!
@musarraf172
Could this be the reason, that nothing changed? Am i right, that you changed the xml values fpr drawable-hdpi and not drawable-mdpi? It's my fault, i should have mentioned that it's for a low resolution screen, sorry!!

I changed for both as I was confused . I have tested in on my phone (HTC) . It was working but the images was overlapping.
EDIT:
I think I am misunderstood. What exactly you want to change ? only some icons ? If so please tell me in more simple words.
Ok, i'll try to explain but my english is not that good (sorry):
When i press the toggle
there should appear a dark green indicator line - like here:
And in the end when the Hotspot is fully activated this should appear:
That means, there should be 3 steps:
Off
-> Start
-> On
Why aren't the pics in my post displayed?
Ok, I'll try to explain again:
The indicator is too low (about 13 pixels too low) and too wide (about 12 pixels on each side, 24 pixels total) as you can see at the new screenshot.
So the xml-parameters should be changed for
1.)appwidget_settings_ind_off_c.9.png (drawable-mdpi as it's a low resolution device with 320x480 display)
2.)appwidget_settings_ind_mid_c.9.png (drawable-mdpi)
3.)appwidget_settings_ind_on_c.9.png (drawable-mdpi)
They have to be changed all the same way.
Please(!!!) can anybody help me?
So you want three total icons.
One for off:
One for starting:
One for on:
This should not be too hard to accomplish.
Yes, that would be what i'm looking for.
But maybe it would be enough, if the position of the indicator would be changed.
Can't do it here at work, and it seems someone is on the right track. I can look at it this afternoon maybe.
Are the images separate. Meaning an icon and an indicator bar. That seems like overkill unless the indicator bar is moving (showing progress). I would think that three static images would be just fine.
If it is just the xml that needs to be edited, can you paste it here?
I made screenshot of what the original apk (not modified in any way!) looks like. Unfortunately I'm not sure which xml contains the information for the position of the graphics. But you can see what graphics are available originally and maybe this gives a hint on how the xml is designed? I tried to attach the xml files to thhis posting but the file format isn't allowed. So i attach the original, unmodified apk.
3 static images would be good, also, if possible, but i think that would be more complicated, what do you mean?
Originally there are 2 icons (off and on) and 3 indicator graphics (off - mid(=start) - on). But i think it would be also good to use 3 static images instead of the combination of the 2 static images and the 3 additional indicator graphics.
I also made 3 screenshots what the original unmodified apk looks like when Hotspot is off, has started and is on.
EDIT:
I'm wrong! I just saw, that the original akp works by having a background for all 3 situations (off - mid(=start) -on) and just varies the WLAN symbol in the middle of it. And additional the indicator graphics.
So there seem to be following graphic combinations originally:
1.) Toggle Off: appwidget_bg.9.png + stat_sys_tether_wifi_off.png + appwidget_settings_ind_off_c.9.png
2.) Toggle pressed (Hotspot Starting): appwidget_bg.9.png + stat_sys_tether_wifi_off.png + appwidget_settings_ind_mid_c.9.png
3.) Hotspot On: appwidget_bg.9.png + stat_sys_tether_wifi_on.png + appwidget_settings_ind_mid_c.9.png
After pairing my Amazfit PACEfied with iPhone I couldn't live with the fact that almost all notifications had the same generic icon.
I did my research and found out that the icons are located in the folder of /sdcard/.ble/icon and named after the app's respective bundle identifier, such as ph.telegra.Telegraph.png with 80x80px size.
If someone wants to test some icons
(as a new user, I'm unable to post links or pictures)
I made a bunch available at "bit ly 2rPIZz8" for the apps I use.
You can add your own app icons as well. The service of "offcornerdev bundle id finder" helps finding the necessary bundle id and to download the icon. Remember to resize it to 80x80 pixels to work natively. I used "picresize batch" processing.

Guys , I've found this watchface maker for windows on Huami BBS site, it took me a while to register there and find it using google translate , so I'll post it here , if that's ok.
I can't post credits since I don't know chinese , so if anyone is kind enough to find it , I'll gladly edit post.
Also, if author of file on HuamiBBS didn't give a permission to share , which I didn't come across with google translate, I'll remove it. Anyways, I reckon it will be helpful in previewing your watchfaces, since it can import, edit, save , etc.
It has one exe and one dll which is english translation , I think. For me , it starts in english by default
It does have a number of bugs, and some features are quite oddly implemented, plus it doesn't match the actual layout you'll see on the watch, but it's a good tool for testing watch faces you've made with features that Fabio's site doesn't currently support.
I would like to see some watchface maker that allow us to change icons color or even simply remove them. I found few watchface pictures from samsungs s3 that could be reproduced, but I miss that maker. Or it exist and I missed it?
For me it starts in Chinese, and I couldn't find where to change it... =(

What additional features are there?
When saving watch faces I get the message 'object reference not set to an instance of an object'.
The first time I only had a background image but I did not select the image.
I think it works the same way for time hands but doubleclicking the time digits does not allow me to set something.
Any idea how to fix this?

This is a limitation of the API. You can't make such a watchface for pace, unless it is an apk.
Wen I open an existing digital watch face I can see the actual time in the time digits and the clock is ticking. In the one I create I can only see an empty rectangle.
How to make sure the time is visible?
I know the Pace faces can be customized, but how about the Bip?
Any way to at least invert the colors?
Also, anyone noticed if battery drain is higher with a seconds-ticking design?

My Italian really sucks, so I might not have gotten it correctly, but doesn't this just allow you to change watch faces to other ones that are ready (prepared by other modders), rather than allowing you to create your own watchface?
Now you can easily edit watchfaces. bitbucket.org/valeronm/amazfitbiptools

Almost all faces i got from here (i haven't tried all yet :silly: ) only updating step counter once a minute compared to the official one (the one that comes pre-installed with the firmware) which updating the counter directly.

This post is pretty old but there seems to be 2 third party apps for Bip Watch Faces by now. Pretty solid collection too.

Hi,
it is realy easy to create Your own watchface, You just need to use this tools and everything works like a charm:
1.) For unpacking and repacking bin files:
Amazfit tools: https://bitbucket.org/valeronm/amazfitbiptools/downloads/
2.) For editing PNG files
GIMP: https://www.gimp.org/
3.) For editing JSON files:
NOTEPAD ++ : https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.5.5.html
4.) For control of visual and functions:

You have to edit the correct png. Nothing else
Hide on lock

When I try to hide on lock, the weather still shows even though it should be covered by my "lock" image. Does yours do that as well? Did you do something to fix it?
Thanks

No, it is an firmware feature. It is non-fixable. That is the reason why I stopped using hide on lock. Hide on lock is just full screen icon with transparent holes and there is no way how to set layer priority or similar function, so other functions like weather, step circle etc. are drawed always on top....
Makes sense... Suprised the order in the json doesnt set draw order.

Amazfit bip tools zip broken
Hello. I've downloaded amazfit bip tools from the link given from bitbucket.
However, the .7z file is extracted with errors. Basically it's broken. Does anyone know where I can find it or if someone can upload
it and share the link ?
Thanx.

You may want to try a different extractor - I just downloaded the 7z file and it extracted correctly (I used Bandizip).

I know the Pace faces can be customized, but how about the Bip?
Any way to at least invert the colors?
Also, anyone noticed if battery drain is higher with a seconds-ticking design?

My Amazfit Bip lasts around 23-24 days with a seconds-ticking watchface. Does anyone know if it may last longer with a simpler watchface?
