Is there a way to show on watches, that my phone is connected/ disconnected from mobile via bluethooth ?
It whould be nice to know i will not receive notification, because i am too far from my mobile. It could be one of indicators on watch face too.
Try AmazMod + GreatFit watchface (you need to install both on watch, and AmazMod on phone too), it will be included in the next release.

I have an Amazfit Bip clock and it has blocked in "Activity" page.
The touch screen does not respond, the physical side button either, the Mi Fit fails to connect, ...
The clock continuously displays that "Activity" menu screen and you can not interact with it.
How can I reset it or what should I do to use the watch?
I use Mi Fit 3.0.5, FW-0.9.14
Thanks

Yes, it happens when BIP trying updating A-GPS data. Run MiFit, keep watch close phone and let him update. Sometimes is failed, but close MiFit, clear memory and try again until success.
Thanks a lot.
In fact, it must be something related to what you say, becasuse as soon as the clock was recovered and connected again to the Mi Fit, it began to update the A-GPS.
What I do not know is if the solution you proposed works, because while it was blocked, the Mi Fit did not recognize it (it always put Connecting ...), it did not connect and I mismatched it and then I could not find it to link it again. That is, there was no bluetooth connection between My Fit and Clock, so I do not know how I could have updated the A-GPS clock trough the Mi Fit
Fortunately, the clock went off and when I put it to charge it started well and it works.
Hi there,
since today i have got the same problem. Sadly the battery is charged 100% so waiting for discharge may take some time. Does somebody know how to reset or force reboot or force discharge the watch?
Thanks in advance!
Amazfit bip problem
Hi, i got exactly the same problem with you..
After i switched my smartphone (from huawei P9 to LG V20) My amazfit Bip suddenly updating A GPS and after that, the touch display is hardly responding, then when i long press the button, it start to displays workout session that cannot be stopped or interrupted in the meantime, Mi Fit can not sync/interract during workout session).
After spent several frustating days, finally i conclude that the main issue is the firmware.
So here is what i did :
- Let the Amazfit watch battery drain (since the activity/workout session can not be stopped, it will drain faster than ussual).
- Recharge the watch until more than 10% and re-connect it to Mi Fit app. (Don't charge it too long, because when something goes wrong you will have to take time to drain the battery again).
- Download NOTIFY & FITNESS FOR AMAZFIT" app from google playstore and connect your Amazfit with the app.
- When the Amazfit Bip paired to Notify & Fitness For Amazfit,
unpaired the watch from the Mi Fit App, then uninstall Mi Fit from your phone.
- Now you have only 'Notify & Fitness for Amazfit' app connected to your amazfit bip.
.- Go to setting section in the app, scroll down and you will find firmware update section, then update the amazfit firmware (you will find some option : english/spain/italian etc., i've choosen english version)
- There imare 3 items that you have to sequintly update one by one : firmware, recources and gps (i failed to update the gps, but all i know, it doesn't matter anyway...)
- After the update finished (sometimes it failed, but i repeat it on and on untill it's succeed), my amazfit starts to work proper and not displaying work out session anymore.
Notify & Fitness for Amazfit is my saviour!
It works better than the official Mi Fit app.
Blocked after Workout
I also had a blocked Amazfit Bip:
On my first workout (a 3 hour bicyle ride), I wanted to stop it. Unfortunately the watch always restarted the workout again.
First I thought that I had double tapped the screen after pressing the Ok (to finish) button. But I tried this for at least 30 times. It always restartet the workout.
I still got a connection from the Mi Fit App, but it told me that the watch is within a workout.
I disconnected / reconnected the MiFit App several times and somehow I was able to quit the Workout.
I immediately switched off the watch, restarted and everything was fine again. No new firmware flashing was required.
I only have it since two days.
[Firmware 0.1.0.26]
Hello,
I'm testing Amazfit Bip since yesterday. To receive notifications I'm using Notify & Fitness for Amazfit. It works fine, but problem appears after reconnecting the watch. I mean - Amazfit losts the connection (for example if it's too far from the phone), somebody calls / sends a message, then Amazfit receives the connection back with the phone and shows no new notification. When it's connected again I don't get notifications for messages/calls received when connection was lost. The same is with Mi Fit application. Do you have any idea how to solve it?

What firmware is on your watch?

V0.1.1.36
Only using third party apps, mostly paid ones. Some can detect that you lost connection and send the notification once the watch is connected. For instance, Notify & Fitness on PlasyStore.
you can try alert bridge on playstore, which is also free. Is not customizable as notify o similar apps (which however need to be paid), but if you don't pretend too much on notifications side, it does what you're looking for. give it a try
My Stratos does not recognize when I disable BT on my phone. On the Watchface is no information and even in the settings screen(swipe down) the watch shows it is connected.
I am on international 2.3.10.5. I am using Amazmod and GreatFit Watchface.
I would like to know by checking the Watchface if the watch is connected.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot.
What phone model and OS? I have seen this happening with some Android phones... Do you still get notifications on watch or it shows as connected but no data come through?
Strange
This is super strange! I checked what you proposed and I have never expected to actually receive notification on my watch with BT on the phone turned off. But I do!
So the behaviour of the watch is correct because it is not disconnected.
I am using Nexus 5X with Lineage 15.1 (Android 8.1)
It seems some phones keep BLE on despite the main BT is off... Check phone settings, it may be related to Google using BT to scan nearby devices for location, etc.
Hello,
I decided to replace my three years old mobile phone very soon. I'd like to know how to re-synchronize my Stratos watch keeping old workouts data if possible.
Is it only enough to do the following:
- dispair the watch on my old mobile
- re-pair it on new mobile
Thank you very much.
If you are using the same system (Android -> Android or iOS -> iOS), then no need to unpair. Do this:
1. On original phone, sync watch to make sure you have the latest data in the cloud;
2. Logout from Amazfit Watch app (do NOT unpair watch, simply logout from your account);
3. Remove watch from phone's Bluetooth settings;
4. On the new phone, install Amazfit Watch and login using the same account as your old phone, obviously;
5. Watch should ask to pair automatically using normal Bluetooth pairing, check notifications and some phones show it there.
If it fails for some reason, you can always factory reset/unpair, then pair again and chose "restore old data to watch" when pairing again (although some people reported it is broken on Amazfit Watcg 3..0+).
PS: There is no Stratos 2, this model does not exist.
Trying to avoid to loose my phone, with Amazfit App 3.6.2 is there any "simple" way to have have a connection lost alert/notification when phone is away?
Before with my Amazfit Bip and Mi Fitt App i have that option there on the App, now with GTR and Amazfit App i don't find that option.
Anyone know how to set it ?
I also use Amazfit Tools App but even there i can't find that option.
Regards
And T-REX does not have such an option.
Very uncomfortable
Hmmm, i don't recall seeing it in the Amazfit app.
But i do know that Notify&fitness does have that option and it does work.
I have used it, but stopped using it, it took to much of the battery as i regularly are at the edge of the connection between phone and watch and it keeps vibrating
