Ok will try to be clear;
I have the latest sw 2.3.4 on Stratos 2 installed
I passed my watch in metric using the app watch amazefit. No way to do it on the watch.
When doing a sport (e.g running) the distance is set in mile. Was confused first time.
When saved activitiy, the distance appear in KM in the app ... and also in the watch ..
So seems that it's only during the activity (only tested with running so far).
Anyone else..?
Thx
Change to miles, save, restart, change back to km and restart once more. If you see "mileage" on display, it actually doesn't change with units, read it as "distance".
thx
Works I have now the distance in KM in the watch during activities.
I ve notices a difference between strava and Xiaomi : strato 6km; strava 5,8km

I and all you guys may met that problems many times before, and after doing many test I can see the cause of the problem. This time I show you one case I have just done it few hours ago:
- First I'm using iphone (but it not effect to the test)
- Amazfit app, change to us verson (simple just change the region to my country), so it will sync the activity to Strava.
- Watch Rom: us official 1.3.3a (the result is the same with dev PACEfied rom)
- Do the ride test around, with many turn.
- Sync the activity to Strava, go to strava export TCX file.
- Export TCX file directly from the watch. (How to)
****Okay, now compare:
Strava activity link: https://www.strava.com/activities/1068275813
TCX file export from strava and watch (see attachment files)
How to compare: import TCX files to this size: http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/map_input?form=google
The result you can see at pictures attachment.
****Conclusion:
- The original GPS file from the watch is very good, no drifting at all.
- After syncing to Strava, GPS route change alot, drifting happens.
- So the issue here is the step "syncing to Strava"
****Solution:
I have no solution, because I am not the engineer from Huami, I hope people from Huami/Xiaomi see this post and will fix this problem. I have read many feedback from Amazon, Facebook group that they have to give back the watch because the drifting problem. Maybe Strava is not fair to change something when syncing (my thinking). The watch is really good but this problem made many people disappointed.
It is "easy" to spot what happens.
while the Amazfit saves the coordinates with 15 decimal places Strava uses only 6 ( and adds a 0 ).
If we take the first entry
Amazfit:
<Time>2017-07-05T04:35:20Z</Time>
<Position>
<LatitudeDegrees>10.391833305358887</LatitudeDegrees>
<LongitudeDegrees>107.10086822509766</LongitudeDegrees>
</Position>
</Trackpoint>
Strava
<Time>2017-07-05T04:35:20Z</Time>
<Position>
<LatitudeDegrees>10.3918330</LatitudeDegrees>
<LongitudeDegrees>107.1008680</LongitudeDegrees>
</Position>
You can see that there is a difference, but a small one ( ~13cm )
If you then go to
Amazfit:
<Time>2017-07-05T04:40:57Z</Time>
<Position>
<LatitudeDegrees>10.385744094848633</LatitudeDegrees>
<LongitudeDegrees>107.11280822753906</LongitudeDegrees>
</Position>
Strava
<Time>2017-07-05T04:40:57Z</Time>
<Position>
<LatitudeDegrees>10.3857360</LatitudeDegrees>
<LongitudeDegrees>107.1127090</LongitudeDegrees>
</Position>
Here the difference is ~10.8 meters.
so you want to tell me that the watch is very precise and Strava is castrating down the results ?!?!?!!
I have installed the python scripts and extracted the data to GPX files.
One of them I uploaded to Strava and then re downloaded it again.
And the downloaded one was with Single precision.
But it was only off on a few points in a 12.5 Km run.
So it is a combination of Strava storing everything as a single ( not double ) .
But even there the data from the Amazfit was drifting, but it was a run through a forest.
If it was only for the precision it wouldn't really matter that much ( maximum of ~0.5 meters ).
So it seems that
1 - The Amazfit is drifting, and
2 - the upload to Strava sometimes does a strange "correction" to the data.
Thanks a lot Trần :good: this has been reported to the team and we are looking into it.

Just my thinking, the problem happened when syncing to Strava, and we got the bad final result.

Sorry for my bad, I dont follow your words (Single precision and Double), are you using your record or my files? Maybe it better with picture, thanks.

Thank you so much for your responding! :good:
Single/double Precision is a programming/computing term.
Compared to Double they have a smaller range and therefore are easier to store, but not as accurate.
1.2.27 CN
[bold]- Update the GPS firmware
- Optimize the drift of GPS
[/bold]
- New voice control meter air purifier function (such as: open the living room of the air purifier, the air purifier set to automatic mode)
- Repair of some cases caused by the speed or speed display abnormal situation
@netzkobold:
Can we expect this for the pace ( US ) as well?
Has anyone reported this solution to the Huami- team and got a positive feedback to solve the problem in the next update?

If netzkobold said that it was reported to the team, trust me, Huami are working on it.
I also have this problem. The drift is sometimes 20+ meters from the road so some Strava segments are not captured. I have downloaded the raw data from the watch (gpx file via python script) and uploaded that manually to Strava and it is perfect. Definitely something is happening when you sync to Strava via the Amazfit app. I can upload my files if anyone is interested.
Hi all,
I don't know if this already exist or if it is even possible from the technical perspective. I've tried to find how to do it, mainly trying to install one of the already existings apps for android but only one is compatible with the amazfit pace architecture and the result in the watch screen is to poor.
The point is to have a new activity in the smartwatch that record laps by GPS position (fe some garmin models do this as well). You set at the beginning a start point and every time you cross that point the activity set a new laptime. It will be usefull for different sports as for example circuit cycling or motorsports like go karts/motorbikes.
Does someone know if this is possible or if already exist something similar?
Regards
Which device? Pace and Stratos have a function called Autolapse which I guess is what you are looking.

Hi nhedgehog, thanks for your reply.
I have an Amazfit Pace... I can see the autolap by distance or by time but can't find the autolap by gps start position or something called autolapse, where is that? Do you have any custom rom installed?
I don't think you can do it besides auto lap by distance or time, as most watches do. If you need anything else then probably you must export the GPX data on watch, transfer it to computer then use a third party service to edit the data.
I'll answer later, just switched the ROM, don't know if I got confused with all that new settings.
I'm on the Amazfit Pace Chines BETA 2.0.6.12 ROM. Here is a thread which lists the activity settings of some outdoor activities.
You are right I can't define a GPS position as Lap Starting. I have the possibility to define autolap by distance and set this alert on or off but not what you were looking for.
I also would be interested by this GPS lap function
WOS2 on Pace has an "Auto Lap" setting (with option of notification separate from the normal lap notification where you can set the lap length), most probably it exists on Stratos as well... Does it do what you need?
Is there any possiblity to get the actual lap time and lap distance in running mode? So when the lower button is pushed these values could be visible in real time?
Any answer? I'm interested.
Also, how can I view this lap info (time, kms) in the Amazfit app?
Hi, i wrote four times to Huami and a lot of times in the Amazmot Watch to ask to this.
I dont't wontt time , distance , pace of the last lap , a lap finished, I won't the actually lap, for nopw the pace and run faster or lower.
All garmin, suunto, polar can do it

You can do all this now in latest firmware and latest Amazfit version, simply go to the app, Sports widget and add the data fields (they are hidden by default).
Thank you for your answer. My amazfit pace has the latest firmware and my phone has the latest version of the app but I can't find what you say. In the sport widget I only have two options. 1. Intervals (a method to program intervals in pace) and 2. Data fields shown in the watch during different types of sports. In the running type I have all data fields activated.
What we are looking for is the way to analyze in the app times and paces for the manual laps marked during a training.
Thanks in advance

This?
Yes. This looks nice . Have you done anything to activate this?
Attached you can find how it looks an screenshot of my app.
App version is 2.5.2.1-play
Pace firmware 2.8.1.0
Looking the details of your attachment I've seen that the laps are exactly of 500meters (except the last one). Maybe you have turned on the autolap option in the amazfit pace with a lap each 500meters automatically?
What we are trying to do is to mark laps manually, with the rear button, and see times and paces between this manual laps. Is that possible??
Regards

1. Yes
2. Maybe it's possible with Stratos, you have to check it.
It's not possible i have the last chinesse versión 2.0.34.2
I want to see the manual laps during the running activity. I know in the mobile app it's possible.
It's not normal to activate de data LAp time , lap pace, lap distance in the app to see it during the activity but the watch show me only the last finished lap. I want to see the actual lap to see the pace for run faster or slower to do the lap in exactly pace , for example 4:04 the kilometre . NOW the watch show me the last lap and the date is fixed because the lap is finished. This information it's not useful

I'm interested in both functions, on the one hand see time and pace during de running activity, and on the other hand analyse data later in the amazfit app.
Anybody knows if that is posible with Stratos?

Hi,
I'm looking for the same (actual lap time and lap pace), but can't find how to have it. It seems not to be available yet with Stratos.
Is there a mod to have it ?
Another one looking for the same thing.
When i bought the watch (July 2018) the posibility of activate the fields was available in the app, even though the watch didn´t show anything.
Then, from one day to another, the options disapeared from the app.
¡This is really necesary to make quality training!
Lap watch rolling time does not restart
The question was about Lap rolling time on the watch not about the Phone app..
With a click on Lap button the the lap stop on the watch and never restart.
To do a lap training, athlete needs to see is Lap time running.
This behavior does not work on latest Stratos firmware.
Is there a way to got a fix for that.
Thank's
Quote below is ok only for Phone App:

I think you didn't understand: you use the phone app to activate the display of the data fields on watch, one of them is the lap time..
You will see them when recording an activity on watch, obviously.

Lap time right now is a joke. Only shows the lap time the first lap, after that It shows the last time lap, not the actual lap time, It is useless.

That's true, on all standard watches a lap time stop a while and then restart rolling again. On the Amazfit watch it stay stopped and show only the previous lap time, that's useless.

this is a huge issue and renders the watch almost useless for me as a real time training guide. have you had any luck with working out a fix for it?
still not fixed with version 2.3.7.0

No idea, itwill be nice that we can contact Amazfit Stratos developers. But I do not have any link to them.
Got the Wahoo tickr band with the Stratos and the watch shows 20bpm off with optical sensor.. My question, does the watch automaticly adjust and sense my fitness level? Cant find amy sittings for max heart rate in the amazfit app and how do I know its corect for me?
With Stratos you should be able to edit this in your profile page on Amazfit app.
I could before but now its gone after latest Amazfit app update. It was in chines... but still possible to figure out. Hopefully in comes back with next update or I will buy Garmin instead. Always the same thing with chines stuff, close to be good.
Hi everybody
I bought the amazfit 2 and had a few difficulties with interval workouts.
After i set a training in my phone app and synced it to the watch i went for a run.
In most times the training stop and wont continue to the next lap/interval/repeat/segment and i have to stop the activity and start a new running activity.
Does anyone had this problem and can help me work it out ?
Same problem here
I am having the exact same problem here. Doing interval training, set to trigger on a given distance. After the second or third interval repeat the watch get stuck and the next interval never starts, forcing me to save the activity and start a new one. This is really not ideal. I was using a BT HRM, wondering if that might be contributing to the issue ?
First of all, there is no Stratos 2:
Stratos is Huami Sports Watch 2, or simply Stratos (some call it Pace 2, since it came after Pace, but it's also wrong).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That being clarified, there is a know bug about interval repetitions, it hangs after some time. A simple workaround is adding multiple intervals with the same distance (or time), dumb but usually work. If you have an International version of the watch (A1619), you can report it in the link below, maybe they fix it some day:
https://support.amazfit.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
I have that bug when changing screens. If i dont change between screens then no problem at allí.
