Ok, thanks. I will flash rom
Help needed
My setup: PF ROM 1.2.49k, MiFit 3.2.9 and Amazfit pace 2.2 apps both from Mi App Store, logged in both apps with the same Mi account. MiFit gets data about activities (incl. HR) and steps from Amazfit, but: I cannot add Pace as synchronised device (setup ends with opening Amazfit app), to see steps counted by watch I have to press on the main counter of steps (main counter shows steps counted by phone, going into details I see data from watch). Bit upsetting situation.
Tried all the solutions from the forum, installing older versions of apps, mixing EN and CN versions, cleaning cache and data of apps, logging with Xiaomi account by e-mail or phone number, all the time the same situation. Adding device process in Mi Fit ends with opening Amazfit app and can only close or go back to Mi Fit and start over. Watch is not being added to the list of devices. In general - I can see all the data in Amazfit, but just being stubborn to have things working I would like to see this watch in Mi Fit such as Mi Scale etc. Any ideas?

This happens when the accounts don't match between the two apps. Open Mi Fit and the Amazfit app, go to the account settings on both and compare the IDs, they should match. If they don't, you need to make them match by signing out of one (clear data) and signing in correctly. You can also use the same Google account on both, that works

Doesn't work for me. I have the same ID in both apps, tried loging on, login off, using e-mail or phone number, even deleting both apps permisions in Xiaomi account to refresh them.
Sync of some data works - so no problem with IDs, just cannot add watch to Mi Fit.

Exactly the same for me, tried above and unable to register Pace to Mi Fit.
Though when I click on Pair, it takes me to the Amazfit app details, however doesn't hold the watch as a paired device.

So - the same problem. It is strange, that when login by Xiaomi account I have different ID in Mi Fit and Amazfit (same for both apps) and ID in Mi Home and other Xiaomi appps. BTW, added Pace to Mi Home without any problems.
hello
What I did two days ago to make it work :
-uninstall Amazfit app
-backup mp3 watchfaces
-Factory reset on watch.
-VPN Tunnel Bear connected to JAPAN
-From mi app :
*add pace =>amazfit app installing from mi app
*login in amazfit app with mi account
-Stop Tunnel Bear
then mi id is share with amazfit and mi app
Note :
i have lost all my activities history
I can sync with google fit
No more strava automatic sync (you can do it by importing GPX files to strava)
The amazfit chiniese app (in english) have more features : import to watch from android app !

Thank you man, I followed this and everything is working as mentioned above. Appreciate all of your help, great work!!!
Sadly that didn't work for me either. Guess I am back to hoping that someone will write a usable third party app...

Mine is working fine as posted earlier.
Previously I have been completing walks and under sport they have been showing the map of my city and the route where I had walked.
This morning, under sport and my walk event, it's showing the distance and the line to signify where I had walked, except it's not accessing the GPS for the map of my city. Did I forget to activate something again since installing the new Amazfit app or is this happening to you also?

So, as I understand you use Mi Fit from Google Play? The one from Mi store syncs only with Chinese aacounts (WeChat, QQ, Weibo). Am I right?

did you talking about mi fit app or amazfit app ? anyway in both app step counting never show maps.
Only in google fit you can have a location as there is a link between the event and the location tracking of the phone.
Hi, I tried the above steps posted by fpatou,
But when I try to view the data in MI Fit, I don't see the device is connected. when I click on the add device it just takes me to the Amazfit App. Please advise what am I doing wrong in the steps.
1. Enable app listing on Pace (search forum, you must see an app called "BLE connect" when you swipe left with other app icons, basically you must push an empty file called "launcher_config.ini" to watch's folder /sdcard/, or take a clear screenshot of you watch's QR code when paired the first time below);
2. Install Amazfit app in Chinese, and MiFit, login using a Mi account (create one if needed) on Amazfit, pair watch, open MiFit and verify that watch is bound to your Mi account too;
3. Do not unpair, logout from MiFit and uninstall Amazfit CN;
4. Install Amazfit from PlayStore, login using Google account (Facebook may work, but I haven't tested), if it asks to pair watch again, open "BLE connect" on watch and tap on "qrcode" to display the QR code and pair again;
5. Open MiFit and login using the same Google account, when it asks to pair watch it will open Amazfit but watch should be paired already.

Does this method still work?
If yes, which version of every app I've to install in order to have the watch paired inside the mi fit app?
The goal is to have the watch paired inside mifit to sync step into google fit, all of this with the stratos
Any idea?

Although I posted this a while ago, now I think it will hardly work... I got a new Int Pace (A1612) and perhaps I will try to reproduce it step by step. Now it's synced with Amazfit US account on iOS.

Thanks for the info! I made some test but never found a solution in order to have the watch synced with mi fit then with google fit!
Seems that I've to find an old version of mifit that permit to pair the watch instead open amazfit app. Tried some old version but not the working one
I'm trying with the stratos but I think is the same with the pace

This thread is about synching the Chinese and PACEfied Amazfit watches with Strava.
For instructions see post#2
UPDATE: No synch possible at the moment. see post#4
Pavel Zeldin posted instructions on Facebook how to sync the Chinese and PACEfied watches with Strava:
Steps and apps for Amazfit/Strava and Mifit sync for all other monitoring - Android only - unpair and reset to defaults your watch before.
https://mega.nz/#F!6F12TSAK!W8mbVyxSbepcSuaMW45s3A - in there you'll find 2 files - Amazfit.1.1.5 and Mifit 2.2.12 installation.
prequels:
an account for Mi and a working account for Strava.
Installation steps:
1. enable unknown sources on your Android device.
2. install the Amazfit 1.1.5 and login with your Mi account.
make sure that its paired, and working with your account and watch.
2. install the Mifit 2.2.12 provided.
Login with your Mi account, make sure that under the profile there's an Amazfit Watch added and configured.
3. go to Play Store, into "My apps and games", and you will see that there's an update for Amazfit Watch - let it update, this will upgrade your installed version to a store one with Strava integrated.
4. in the new Amazfit watch application, go to Activity sync, tap the strava line and login into your Strava account.
that's it. Amazfit's latest version with Strava, Mifit latest version with HR, sleep and steps.
* The Amazfit Watch will be updated by the Play Store.
* the Mifit app will be updated via its own update process, and download a new version via its own interface, do not install Mifit from the store.

With this solution i have Steps and Sport Tracking on Mi Fit and i also get my Activities on Strava. On Mi Fit there is no map displayed but you get all the other informations. Strava syncs only activities after this pairing process, so do not get confused as older trainings will not appear there. Install it, do a training and then you will have it synced.
Screenshots:
It seems that the sync with Strava doesn't work any more since yesterday. It seems to require a watch with US serial number now.
I will keep this thread updated.
Any news ?

Can't pair with 1.1.5 version of Amafit (others are OK) so I can't follow steps and have sync with strava. Is there an other way ?

If "Others" are Ok then use a newer but not hte newest version of the Chinese app. The trick is to update to the newest version via Play Store.
Solved ! I just created a new account and it works (don't know why other account don't works). Thanks !

tested it today and it worked with pacefied 1.2.11
I've followed guide and watch is syncing with Mi Fit. For now, not syncing with Strava. Btw, why no map on your screenshot? In my case is the same, no map. Pretty useless to se GPS tracking without map as background.
Hmm, short walk for test hasn't been synced with Strava. Going home and started "Bike" (was driving actually) and even 13 second was synced. Second longer "Bike" was synced as well. Looks like that Strava is actually rejecting too short activity.
Mine doesn't work. Amazfit Watch international version rom 1.3.2b.

Hello,
I can sync synonymous with my AmazFit CN pacefied 1.2.14 (rel.9) synonymous with Strava. Has anyone here a solution?
Amazfit and MiFit
..
I use Mifit Exporter..
https://mega.nz/#!OYQVxBzT!9uEJQfB1JNM6Yb26N386PeYMRMp4xg-NaDBFc8tAg5I
After import a gpx file to a folder, I open it with Locus Pro and export to strava.
Simple
i had experience it not uploading to strava
Hi,
It is difficult to use strava in this version (Huami AmazFit / Xiaomi AmazFit PACE | rel 9 | 1.2.14 dev).
I think I figured out a solution ... at least in my it worked 100%
1- Install Amazfit App CN version
2- Log in.
3- Install titanium backup
4- Backup the Amazfit App + Data
5- Uninstall Amazfit App
6- Go to Play Store and install the Amazfit App ( dont log in)
7- Go to titanium backup and restore only the data
Done… now you should have STRAVA working
Best hopes
See you.

Does not work.
my cn amazfit is working fine sync with strava from begining,
this is how i do it:
• install Amazfit app cn version (must old version, i use v1.1.5);
• scan barcode with amazfit,
• login with mi account, and sync with MiFit
• now the trick, without uninstall Amazfit app cn old version, you go to PlayStore and update the Amazfit App.
• now you get the us version app, and still connected with Amazfit, and you setup sync with Strava
• now you every time you sync, you sync with MiFit and Strava

Are you sure that your data gets synced to Mi Fit? I did exactly as you described and it doesn't sync. Mi Fit says it's connected to the watch, but the data does not get synced.
I'm using PACEfied which is chinese DEV version.

very sure, from amazfit app in main screen on the top sync with MiFit, go to Active Sync and sync again with strava.
is the MI login service down ? I was trying to login using the old 1.1.4 app (recently downloaded) but to no avail. It just says "login failed".

does not work. Everything else works but not strava synching.
why not through google fit?
I am using a Stratos during the week and I love it, but thinking of getting an amazfit bip for the weekends. Does the amazfit app/android phones allow pairing of multiple watches at the same time? Any caveats?
I'm sure this answer is out there but my google Fu is not strong and haven't been able to find the right answer with my search terms.
Cheers,
OD
Does anyone have more than one amazfit watched synced to their android phone?
Cheers,
OD
I don't think it's possible in Amazfit app, although it allows you to pair with another watch maybe it will replace the exiting one, but I have never tried doing this.
But MiFit seems to allow multiple devices as long as they are not the same type, for example, one MiBand and one Bip or Pace.
Thanks for that. I don't see an option in the amazfit to add another watch. Also, when I try to pair the Stratos to mi fit it just takes me into the amazfit app.
I uninstalled the amazfit app to test but when I tried to pair the Stratos in mi fit it prompted me to install amazfit app...
Does the Bip have this same requirement? Perhaps the amazfit app can sync with the Stratos and mi fit can sync with the Bip?
Cheers,
OD
When I open Amazfit app and go to Profile I can see "Pair new watch" there, and it tries to read another QR code.
Yes, MiFit requires Amazfit app to pair with Pace/Stratos, and it's a complicated issue... I was able to use my Pace with both apps fro Play Store (i.e. not CN version) using the same account in both (I used Google account, but FB should work too), but a lot of people have problems doing it. The only thing I did previously was testing a CN version of Amazfit and paired with Pace using my Mi account, and I never unpaired the watch but used adb to display the QR code on watch whenever it was needed.
Sure, you can use each app with a device, but they won't sync the data, so what's the point?

I successfully linked an Amazfit Bip and a Mi Band 4 to Mi Fit on the same phone. I had a second Mi Fit installed in Xiaomi's Second Space on my Pocophone and another Mi Fit installed on the primary section of the phone. Each Mi Fit is paired with just one device so there is no conflict.
Totally off topic but the title reminded me of a certain internet video... ?
Have an amazfit GTR and a Mi band 4, want to swatch and combine data for both, but no luck sofar. I can add both to the amazfit app, but have to switch between them which resets the step counter for the day... strangely enough once you click the step counter, it does show a combined value
Any solutions for this ?
Hello, All!
After upgrading my Pace to WOS2 beta, I have done lots of tests about syncing data and I think I have figured out how it works mostly, and probably the cause of common sync data errors, specially if another firmware was flashed. Please let me expose some facts, and fell free to ask any questions so this guide can be improved.
To make things shorter: CN = Chinese / EN = English or International.
- The QR code shown in the watch is always the same is a myth. It seems that it always identify the same watch, probably based on the Bluetooth MAC address of the device, but every time it is shown the chances are it will be different. It's a token actually: it allows the device identification in a unique way, without disclosing the real information(the MAC address). You can actually save one image and it will always refer to your watch, so for safety precaution, if you want to save the QR code, keep it safe.
- The QR code generated when the device is unpaired or factory reset actually shows if the device is a Chinese or International model, and Amazfit app in English (current versions, at least) won't pair if the watch is a CN model. I don't remember having this issue with CN Amazfit, but I am not sure.
- By the other hand, the QR code generated with the app on watch called BLE Connect is a "generic" one, so it can always be used to pair the watch.
- Now the fun begins... You can only bind a watch to one Amazfit app account, each account in the app has an unique ID. So if you ever paired your watch with a Mi account using a CN Amazfit app, all the data sent to the cloud will be bound to your Mi account. This means that if you pair the watch using another account without first unpairing it with the previous one, all the new data will be sent to the cloud using the old account as an identifier, because the watch is actually still bound to the old account. So if you delete the app and install again, sign in using the new account, the new data will be gone. You must be careful when changing accounts.
- To bind the watch to another account, you must unpair it with the old account using Amazfit app. You don't need to factory reset the watch, but it will be easier to show the QR code to pair with the new account, of course. You can put the watch in airplane mode, unpair in Amazfit app and the watch won't be erased. But then you need to manually show the QR code on watch to pair again (see tips below).
- Once the activity data is saved to the cloud, it is bound to the account that the watch was also bound to at that moment forever, using a token that identifies the account bound to the watch, and not necessarily the current account used in Amazfit app. So you cannot simply pair the device in Amazfit app hoping that the data on watch will go to the new account, it won't happen. It may show in the new app, but it's bound to the old account, so if you re-install the app using the same account the new data won't show up as explained previously.
- Now this explains why some people can sync data with MiFit while other can't: the watch must be bound/paired to the same account used in MiFit. The sync with MiFit isn't done via Amazfit app, but via the cloud, so MiFit will only show the data if the watch is bound to the same account in Amazfit app.
- It seems that this is the case for Strava too, and this explains why some people can use CN Amazfit app and still have the activities sent to Strava. But the data will be bound to the account used in the EN app, so if you re-install Amazfit the data is gone too. Data is sent to Strava even when phone is in Airplane mode and data is uploaded using the watch. AmazMod seems to work with Mi accounts to enable Strava sync too. Keep in mind that if there is any problems syncing with Huami servers or your account when you send data to the cloud, it won't be sent to Strava later, you have to upload the activity manually, either exporting on watch as GPX or using my AmazeBackup tool to extract data from watch.
- This also explains the fact that if you re-install the app using the same account that is bound to the watch, it will already show the watch connected (if you didn't erase the watch, of course), or simply ask to pair the Bluetooth again if it was erased, because the account still have the watch bound to it.
- When you pair a watch that isn't bind to any account, Amazfit app will ask if you want to restore the data from the cloud to the watch.
- If you unpair the watch while it is connected to Amazfit app, it will be erased (factory reset). Also if you do a factory reset in watch settings while connected to the app, it will be unpaired.
- You can pair two devices of the same type with Amazfit (at least using version 2.4.0 or newer), but in MiFit you cannot pair different types, for example one MiBand and one Pace (you can add other devices tho).
- You can only pair the watch with one Amazfit app.
- Tips for trying to fix Strava sync: logout from your account on Amazfit (I recommend using the latest Play/AppStore version for enabling Strava sync), go to Strava website -> Settings -> My Apps and revoke Amazfit access, then login back to Amazfit app, the watch should be paired automatically meaning it's bound to this account, then go to your profile and add your Strava account again. Only new activities saved after doing this will be sent to Strava, old ones have to be exported manually (see tips below about using your computer to get the data into GPX or TCX).
So to be safe, it's very important to pair the watch and use the same account always in Amazfit app, this way the data will be always in sync and safe in both watch and app. If you ever decide to use another account, unpair the watch first using the Amazfit app or Factory reset on watch while still connected to the phone.
UPDATE: CN Amazfit 2.4.0 now supports all logins if the language isn't Chinese, so it should be much easier and painless to go from one firmware to another as you can login to both apps using Amazfit US, Google or Facebook.
OK, now the cool part, the tips.
1. You can show the QR code on the watch if you enable the hidden apps listing, and to do this push an empty (0 bytes) file named "launcher_config.ini" to the /sdcard (it is the same place where the folder WatchFace is). This can be done using any way you use to transfer files to the watch, for instance using adb:
Code:
adb push launcher_config.ini /sdcard/
2. There is also a command that opens it directly, but requites a watch with root enabled:
Code:
adb shell am start -n com.huami.watch.ble/com.huami.watch.qrcode.QrActivity
3. You can backup the sport activities directly using adb too (this won't affect the data shown in Amazfit app in any way).
For Pace/WOS1:
Code:
adb backup -f sport_data.ab -noapk com.huami.watch.sport
For Stratos/WOS2:
Code:
adb backup -f sport_data.ab -noapk com.huami.watch.newsport
To restore the data (it will erase any new data added since the backup):
Code:
adb restore sport_data.ab
Check other XDA threads about exporting the data to TCX directly from the watch, it's a good way to have a backup of the data and export it to any other service besides Strava. This is a link to my AmazeBackup tool, with support for both Pace and Stratos, all versions of firmware, that exports data to TCX and GPX:

Hello. If you use Mi account, then you must download the CN version (current stable version is 2.4.0 as of now) of the app, it will allow you to login using your current account. Then pair with Stratos, go to MiFit and add watch too. All set. But you won't have Strava sync. For this, you can try using AmazMod, a modded CN version of Amazfit Watch app.

Use the Amazfit app and Mifit app from Google play store. Login with the same account in both apps and then you will find the Strava sync in Amazfit app settings/add account.

Hi ! even with this tutoriel i can't sync my activitys on strava account (but i have no problem to upload/backup all my activitys on my MI account). here what i try, please tell me where i'm wrong.
watch : amazfit PACE CN , WOS 2.6.0.12.
1 - Unpair my watch from amazfit 2.4.0 DEV
2- delet amazfit app and clean all data on my phone related to amazfit
3- install AmazMod 3.0
4- Log on my MI account (chinese Mi account, same account i always use on my previous amazfit app)
5- connect the watch (QR code) and restore data
6- install STRAVA android app and log on
7- on Amazmod, account> strava : i log on strava
Problem : nothing sync and it's always written last udate with the date/hour i install amazmod. Even when i click on sync button, in written "syncing" but nothink sync and it back to the same date/hour i install amazmod.
edit : i got around 40 activitys recoded with GPS (only trail run and cycling)
edit 2 : in my strava account >> app , amazfit watch appeared as "authorized"
@urikane: AmazMod 3.0 is pretty old, why are you using it? Anyway, the recent versions of Amazfit app from PlayStore allow login using Mi account, so you can retrieve your old data and still get Strava sync. The problem is that old activity, sent to Huami servers already (the same ones you retrieve when logging in back to your account) won't be sent to Strava, only new data recorded after enabling Strava sync will. The old data must be uploaded manually using a browser on your computer, my backup tool may help, it exports the sports activity as TCX, or open each one on watch and export as GPX.

thx you so much : with the Amazfit app from playstore it's working.
i try your backup tool too, it's working only with the activity i did with WOS 2, but the old activity .tcx with WOS 1 are "empty" (probably because old activity WOS 1 doen't backup completly on the watch).
Anyway, thank you for your help
Hi,
I tried everything to sync my Stratos 2 international with Mi Fit (in order to sync with Google Fit) : many different versions of Amazfit Watch app (CN / En) or AmazMod v4.1.6 / login in both apps with Mi Account or Google Account / unlock bootloader + installing STRATOSfied v2.0.22.0 / read hundreds of posts in xdadevelopers ... I never managed to get Mi Fit synchronized with the watch ! When I pair the watch with Mi Fit, it launches Amazfit and get stuck there. Accounts ID are the same within Amazfit Watch and Mi Fit, I don't know what to try else. If someone has a clue, it would be more than welcome !
watch : amazfit Stratos 2 intl version (but shown as A1609 in the watch since Stratosfied is installed) . Currently : Amazfit Watch app v2.50.1 from Google Play Store + Mi Fit v3.4.1 from PS (after many different tries)

For me the exact same issue i tried so many things other phone laguage China VPN, China Mi-Fit, China Amazfit and and and nothing works with my Int. Stratos.
Make sure your watch is bound to your Mi account. How dow you know this?
1. Uninstall Amazfit app without unpairing or logging out, then install it again and login. If the watch is bound to your account you won't need to pair again, it will be paired automatically.
2. Go to your mi.com profile page and make sure Amazfit and MiFit are connected to your account:

@acidstorm81 Unpair watch, login to Amazfit using Mi account, then go to mi.com and verify that Amazfit is linked to your account, then open MiFit and use the same Mi account.

No, it syncs everything. You may need to wait for a while or force-sync a few times so all data will be updated.

Data goes only from watch to Amazfit app and MiFit, not from MiFit to anywhere else, besides GoogleFit if you have enabled it on MiFit. All my data from Amazfit app syncs with MiFit perfectly. But I need to open MiFit everyday to force a sync.

* I have done it point #1 : Reinstall shows no problem, no need to pair again after installing again
* Removed accounts within mi.com profiles / Remove account within Google Fit
* Unpaired the Stratos, paired the Stratos again then reload using Xiaomi account (I lost all my settings/additional installed apps in the watch in this step ! )
...still the same...
When I click in Mi Ft main screen on "Not paired device / Click to pair device" (sorry for the translation from the french screen I get/ Chinese translated sentence should be something like this in English..) the Amazfit Watch app appears and I still get stuck there ... And still no sync with Google Fit. I have not tried any sport workload with the watch, I really want it to sync basic 'steps counting' with Google Fit first !
@vinceg77 Sorry, but it's not clear: on your mi.com profile page, Amazfit and MiFit are connected to your account?

I have a stratos 2. Do I still need Mi Fit when I have the amazfit app? What will I lose or gain if I use either or both?
I also forgot what I signed up/in for my amazfit app? How do I check?

You can't, the only way it to log out and login again. No data will be lost and you don't need to unpair watch, it will be paired automatically when you login again.
You must use Amazfit for notifications and other stuff, but you can upload sports data directly from watch using WiFi. If you add the watch to MiFit as well, the data will be synced there too (using the cloud), for this to work you must use the same account to login to both apps, obviously. MiFit if only needed if you want to sync data with GoogleFit on Android or AppleHealth on iOS, or perhaps its social features.
Oh I see. Thanks! But if I log out of amazfit, I won't be able to login since I don't know what I used as login ID. I'm worried all data will be lost if I don't know what account I'm using.

What do you mean? Simply login to an official version from PlayStore/AppStore when the phone language isn't se to Chinese and you should be able to activate Strava sync. Login with the same account where you store your data, no need to unpair/pair again watch, simply uninstall the current app (if you are using the CN version, for instance), install new one, login and you should see your watch automatically, then go to your profile, add accounts and activate Strava sync. Once activated it will work as long as you use the same account with Amazfit app and don't unpair watch.
I have mifit and amazfit apps. In mifit I have a lot of data from miband 2.
after adding stratos mifit is still using same database so its fine but in amazfit app I can only see data from the first day of using stratos (no history).
It seems now I have to sync independent Mifit app and Amazfit app. How to solve it?

Maybe a stupid question, but do you know how I can sync my steps and sleep on the mi fit? Right now it only syncs my activities, but I would like to have everything synced to MiFit.

Here, when it works, it syncs everything. You may want to unpair the watch and do not restore old data to it, or if it doesn't work, unpair, logout from both accounts and start over. PS: unpairing deletes all data on watch.
I have Stratos, and Mi Band 1S, and my Activities from Amazfit app are synced properly to Mi Fit through cloud(same login in both apps). My problem is that even if i see Activities from Amazfit app in Mi Fit, they are not synced to Google Fit(steps, and sleep from Mi Band are synced properly). How to sync Activities to Google Fit?

It will never will, it only works the other way around: Amazfit -> MiFit, and only with new activities.
