As i tried to make a firmware upgrade to my Amazfit Cor Band with the Notify&Fitness for Amazfit App, the band got stucked when the update initiated and remained so. Now, on the screen, there is only the circle that should fill up while the update progresses, and i cand do nothing else on it. What is your solution? How can i get the band going again? Is there some way to reboot or reset it?
I have the same problem, it began to try to update itself and will not connect to the phone, it's stuck in the update mode so it keeps failing to pair to the phone again after unpaired and app uninstalled, phone restarted etc. Is there a way to get it to 'reset'?

Hi all,
Thanks for taking the time to read.
I bought my Bip back in February and it has been a joy to use. About 3 weeks ago I opened the MiFit app and it said as it often did that there was a new firmware and proceeded to run an update. It had done this many times before without a problem. This time however when returning to the watch it said "Connect to APP to update". I tried connecting it to the app but each time I pressed tick on the watch the phone gave an error that the connection was refused. I checked the Amazfit support pages and followed the suggestions of rebooting the phone, forgetting the watch in the app and then in the bluetooth settings on the phone but the problem still persists. I tried it on the wife's iphone to rule out my handset but got the same error. The watch is not visible in the bluetooth settings of the phone.

Since then I have tried on an Android phone and got a bit further. With Android I can pair through bluetooth but when running the MiFit app I get an error that the connection fails when trying to pair up the watch. I then installed the "Notify and Fitness" app which does see the watch however on attempting to update the firmware or resources it fails at 98-99%. When using the tests in the app I can get the watch to run a heart rate test and vibrate. Also if I flash with a chinese res file then the language of the error also changes.
I have tried using the two alternative methods of update, new and old firmware but to no avail. I have also tried doing this without the MiFit ap installed and firmware updates through gadget bridge.
One last thing to try is for the battery to run down and restart the thing but I am still a week at least away from 0% and Have been trying to fix it for a fortnight
Do any of teh gurus of XDA have any tips or suggestions of what else I could try?
Thanks in advance!
Any solution in 2019 using iphone?
Hello.
Did you solve this problem?
I found solutions but they were wrote more than a year ago...
And all of them used android phones to install new (now old) firmwares, but I only can use my iphone...

I let it run down helped along by repeated vibration tests but eventually after about 3 weeks the thing ran out of juice. Charged it and started it back up and it booted up fine, it has been fine since! great little watch but really needs a hard reset button.
Good luck
Recently my Amazfit BIP automatically updated and it stoped being able to connect via bluetooth.
So I tried to reset to factory settings and now the Amazfit is frozen an its screen only shows the icon of connecting the watch to the smartphone, and it's not possible to stop this process.
I've tried to use different apps to connect and although they can find the watch, they are unable to connect.
Have anyone faced a similar situation?
Wait till it drains out en then start it up again. U should see the pair to device icon
Been using the unit for 2 weeks or so. All of a sudden, there's no ecreen output at all.
It vibrates, it syncs to the amazfit app, it charges and the HR monitor does work.
Any idea on what happened? Should I RMA or is there any method to reset it and try my luck?
Ok, nevermind: Went to unpair it in order to RMA and it rebooted after clearing the data, and the screen came back to life.
If you ask me, this does not seem like a hardware issue... :S
How you have cleared the data withour screen not working?

Unpairing the watch from the amazfit app.
I had this happen another two times.
Last time it happened I refused to restore the settings when pairing it again and did not have this issue anymore (so far).
Happens to me as well.
Everyone it happens, I attempt to upload a new watchface via the Amazfit app, which causes the software to reboot. After the reboot everything works.
Looks like software issue to me.
