Hello all,
I have just received my new amazfit bip (international version).
Unfortunately Hebrew notifications cannot be displayed on the watch.
I have tried to look for a solution in the web, but most of the results were posted several months ago and I could not find any solution for my problem.
Is there any solution for that?
Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you for you fast reply, unfortunately, the last time (at least the one that I have found) the bip was mentiond on the facebook page was couple of months ago.
In your attacked link I have found ROMs for the other amazfit versions, is there a solution for the bip? (Did I miss something?)
Thanks
Oh, sorry, I didn't notice you are talking about the Bip.
The XDA link is in no use to you.
Try to send a message to the FB page.
The admin is Pavel.
He is very knowledgeable and nice,
I put my money that if anyone would know how, he will be the guy.

Thank you, I will do it and update here,
Still waiting for an answer here
Hi,
Pavel here, reporting for duty
Unfortunately, there is no solution for the Bip, not an official one and nothing on the non-officials ones as well.
you can load custom fonts into the watch, but the last try i had with that ended up with mirrored Hebrew, unusable, and on the 2nd flash it killed my Bip.
As sad as it might sound, I would accept my gloom future and the fact that it will probably NEVER will support Hebrew.

Hey,
Roee Greenberg and Ya Alex posted on this group: Xiaomi Huami Amazfit Bip INTERNATIONAL (Facebook group) the attached file.
Unzip it, and use "gadgetbridge" or "notify & fitness" to flash it as a custom firmware.
It worked for me.

Hi.
It's a nice surprise to see my name here
I recently made a "patch" for RTL support. It's not a firmware fix but at the app side, and should be at the next version of Gadgetbridge app.
If you wish, you can find an unofficial version of the app at the Facebook group from the link above.
Hi all,
I just ordered my Amazfit Bip. I used to have Mi Band 2 and Mi Band 3.
I flashed a firmware to support Hebrew on Mi Band 3 and it worked for some time, but eventually, working with a Pixel 3 and the Notification and Fitness app (without MiFit app) both bands lost their bluetooth capabilities and are not communicating with the outer world any more.
Scared of this, I intend to use gadgetbridge to flash the Hebrew font and then just work with Alert bridge and MiFit together. will that work?
Thanks!
should work, not in a perfect way, but should work
Is it possible to install the Hebrew fonts on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04)?
Any help / guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Aamazfit Pace, international version. (2.8.4.0)
Hi I got Gtr yesterday and I have a problem with my notifications. I get them on Greek characters which the watch shows up as ??????? . I had amazfit pace before and didn't have any issues with it,it showed Greek characters normally.
Anyone who can help or give me an advice;;
Or I should just wait for a possible update later on

Try app called Notify and fitness for amazfit. There is an option if you go to advanced settings that's called Transliterate characters and its supposed to change Greek characters into Latin ones (Greeklish)
Ive tried it and i cant get it to work but if more people try it maybe they find something that i didn't... also the app itself is pretty good and has everything.
So please give it a try and let me know also in case you manage to fix the annoying non showing Greek characters thing!
Just fyi i previously owned Amazfit Pace and it showed Greek characters just fine!

GTR doesn't run Android (like Pace), it is more like a BIP with rounded AMOLED screen, so unless you use a third party app or someone finds a way to upload fonts to the watch, it won't work.

If it doesn't support UNICODE now, hardly it will in the future. They may add more fonts that are uploaded/replaced in the future once the watch is paired to the phone and it detects a different language. Someone said it supports German, but I am not sure if it supports all non-Latin characters...

i just tried again Notify and fitness app and it works! at least on messenger, i sent a message in Greek and it came to my watch in Latin characters....
lets see how it goes.... thank you for your help
In case of, the Chinese version can display accent on the letters or special letters in notifications (é, ê, ç…) for French people for example, something the Bip can't do. But UI will still be in Chinese.
I have also ordered the watch myself and when I learned of the lack of support for Greek characters I was annoyed.
I sent through the Feedback from Amazfit application on this issue.
It would be great for everyone who has the watch to do the same may they add it to a future update.
I have already contacted support and they are aware of the Greek issue (and other languages also). They said is on their road map... but dont have an exact date yet... who knows.
I am using Notify atm till we get an update
If I use this app, can I remove the Amafit original app and manage all with Notify?

Hello to all.
I'm interesting to buy this watch and I hope Huami make an update soon for as, so we can see without problems Greek characters (and other language characters too).
It should be self-evident nowadays... :silly:
But also I would like to know two more things:
1. Does this watch support Notifications from all apps that have Push Notifications or only for some of them, (like Facebook, What's App, Viber and other Messenger apps)?
Basically I'm interested for Reminder Notifications by apps like (Life Reminders, Keep, Splen Do, etc.)
Are these applications supported properly?
2. Is there any character limit when a notification text is large? And if it has, do we have the ability to avoid this limit with a third part application like Notify & Fitness app?

Hi there,
It is almost impossible to find some stuff about Bip S. I have just bought one a week ago and trying to make it more useful. First of all, it is said that the watch comes with 10 different activity options. I just got 6. Later I found out that there is this OTA update which I didn't get it. Because my watch is updated to the latest version and still got 6 options. If anyone knows about it please let me know.
I 've got some other issues I would like to mention all. The second issue is the lack of watch faces and inability of using creators because I guess there is no one for Bip S yet. One that exists for Bip gives an error for most of the work.
Finally, I was trying to use amaztool which is a good app. I didn't get ''the custom trigger'' section though. Anyone knows how to use this and what is this ''url'' part about in it?
Thanks in advance for the responses.
Waiting for OTA update also.

These are really nice and they are working if I change them via Notify & fitness app manually. Unfortunately, Notify & fitness cannot sync my workouts at the moment...
Hi all,
I have got an Amazfit Bip S, and I would like to connect it to Gadgetbridge. However, it does not work because I cannot find a working authentification key. I tried sqlite3 and the modded Amazfit app from freeyourgadget.com. I am grateful for any suggestions. Here is what I have tried so far:
I tried the sqlite3-method with a rooted phone running Android 7. I followed the procedure as described in the Huami-Server-Paring description on github. However, it seems the phone has no sqlite3-package, and I could not push one to /system/xbin because I had no writing permission. I copied the origin_db_* to /sdcard/ and pushed the sqlite3-package from my laptop to the same directory. It did not work either, sqlite3 gave me back it could not find a line with DEVICE.
The modded Amazfit-app produced a file, which read [MAC-address];[32-character alphanumeric sequence]. I tried the 32-character alphanumeric sequence as authentification key in the Gadgetbridge-app, but it did not work. For all I know, the authentification key should have 16 characters.
I am grateful for any suggestions!
Taken from the gadgetbridge guide did you do this when entering your key:
IMPORTANT: Enter your key prefixed with 0x ( eg. if your key is fedcba01234567890fedcba012345678 enter 0xfedcba01234567890fedcba012345678)

Thank you for helping stupid across the street! I was so stuck in other problems that I actually forgot this. Embarassing... Now it works with the 32-character key the modded Amazfit-app produced. Thx!
Your welcome. I missed this too so that's why i thought i would ask :laugh:
Finally. Sportsmodes with update
Sorry Im new here, i have a Amazfit Bip S and i love it so far but one thing that bothers me is the generic app icon when notification is received. Any workaround

I only know the official Amazfit app and the Gadgetbridge app (apart from watch face apps). The Gadgetbridge app is for those who are sensitive about their personal data. The official Amazfit app has some functionality advantages.
For instance, the Gadgetbridge cannot share the phone's GPS signal with the watch — other than the Amazfit app. That is a bit of a problem because it takes the watch a few minutes to find the GPS signals after you started the sports tracker. Distance and speed measuring only starts after the watch has found the signals; time count, however, starts before. That distorts average speed.
Also, retrieving the watch key for the Gadgetbridge app is a bit tricky.

"Amazfit BIP 1S" is written on the watch box. When I connect my watch to the Amazfit app I choose Bip s / bip lite s. And my watch has GPS as well. So, I think it is Bip lite s

Have you also updated Zepp app to version 7.1.0? Please update the app to this version and try again. Thank you very much!

That 7.1.0 version should be fully released in recent two days. Please kindly have a little more patience for that. Thank you very much for your understanding!
Sincerely,
