keep geting an error that tells me to move the watch closer to the phone. cant even get past the qr screen
This was fixed in an update on the watch, but unfortunately you can't update until you've set up (unless you have a PC handy with ADB on it or can install it)
The easier option (and the one I used) is to use an old device running something less than Android 8.0, set the watch up to that, update it and then unpair it and connect it to the Pixel
Help..

Ok i just got ICON Callisto 100 which I understand is same as omate smartwatch. i'm having several problems that i hope someone can help me with.
1. when i plug the watch (in cradle) into the computer(with the watch turned on), nothing happens. i mean it doesnt show up anywhere on computer as a drive and i want to install new watch faces that i downloaded already to computer. how do i get it to show as a drive? is there some setting i'm missing on the watch to do this? a walkthru from someone that knows would be great!
2. I dont have a sim card in the watch, its just a slave to my htc one phone. i get weather, email, and contacts already got downloaded and seem to update fine. HOWEVER, when a call come in on the phone, nothing happens on the watch. the call doesnt show up and no option obviously on the screen to answer or ignore. help!!!
3. when i get an instant message on the phone, it doesnt show up on the watch. so messaging is apparently not working. help.
Any step by step help with all of these would be much appreciated! thanks!!!!
Unless you turn on USB Storage on the watch, it will not show up on your computer. This is typical for most Android devices and is so common place that I can't even find a guide to link you to.
The Callisto 100 is not really designed to be used as a companion smartwatch so unless apps are installed to add this feature it will not work as a companion. The Master/Companion app for the TrueSmart are specific to the TrueSmart. If you want full TrueSmart compatibility you have to flash the TrueSmart firmware.
I would also suggest that if you have not rooted or run the EnSec Patch, to do so immediately
Just received my Amazfit Pace from Amazon, took it out of the box and tried to pair it with my Pixel XL on 8.1
After scanning the QR code, it goes to the "Syncing Data to the Watch" screen, and then I get a "Pair Failed - Cannot connect to the watch, please keep the watch near the phone" message every time.
What can I do to fix this? I love the look of the watch, it would be a shame to have to send it back..
Have you tried to pair with another phone? I am almost sure I've read somewhere that older versions of firmware won't pair with latest iOS/Android, you need to pair first with an older device, update watch's firmware, unpair and then pair with your phone.
you need to pair with another device, update your watch software to the latest, 1.3.6d, and only then you'll be able to connect to your 8.1 device.
I factory restored my pixel to Android 7, paired with PACE and updated then I factory restored Pixel to lated Oreo build
Thanks all, I borrowed my wife's iPhone, spent a looong time updating through the latest versions, and was able to pair to my Pixel XL.
Hi there
I am struggling to pair the Amazfit Pace with my iphone. I scan the QR Code and get an Error Message that says I need to unpair the device from bluetooth. The problem is, it's not in the bluetooth list for me to unpair it. I tried other devices including an iPhone 5... same error issue. I reset my iPhone, I removed Amazfit App from the storage of my iPhone.
What is this error? What do I need to do? Is this an Amazfit App issue?
I cannot get past the QR Code screen to see or do anything more than drive myself crazy going to the bluetooth setting to remove the device, knowing full well, it's not in the list.
any help? Or is this a junk smart watch?
The watch is new? If yes, probably you must first update the firmware using and Android phone with Android 7.1 or older, or use a Huami tool to install at lest firmware 1.3.8. If it's not brand new, probably it was paired with another account, then you must first unpair it properly from that account...
Edit: if you haven't done it yet, restarting the watch a couple of times may help too.
My watch has become useless after latest upgrade. I can't remember the exact version of the upgrade but I cant access my watch anymore. It is just blank screen but I can tell its on because it tries to connect via Bluetooth with my headphones. I have been literally going back and forth with amazfit support to send me a new watch but they are more useless than the watch itself. this forum is my last hope..any help?
Did you try to plug in the charger and press the button long enough to get the watch restart?
I haven't used the watch for a while. Today I reset it and tried connecting it to my new phone (redmi note 8), and it's stuck telling me to "continue setup on phone screen". The wear os app on the phone says its connected, but the watch is stuck. I cannot find the Zenwatch manager app on play store either. Am I missing something?
Even I am facing the same issue the watch isn't being detected @Asus we need a solution, u can't just make the watch useless
Hello, you have to download and install the Zeenwatchmanager as apk from for example apkmirror. Without the Zeenwatchmanager, I was also unable to connect the watch. Afterwards, the Zeenwatchmanager can be uninstalled.
