Hi,
I just bought a Amazfit Pace today. I tried to connect it to my phone (Huawei P20 Pro) immediately, but to my dismay, I only got "Couldn't Pair" error repeatedly. After some research, I found out that the older firmware have an issue to connect to Android 8.1 or later. Many articles suggested that I should connect the watch to a device running Android 8.0 or earlier, then get the firmware update, and then connect to the new phone.
The problem is, I don't have any device that is running with older Android. Both my LG V20 and Huawei P20 Pro is running on Android 8.1. In that case how can I update the firmware of the watch without connecting to the phone? Is there any way to update via PC?
Must be someone around you with Android phone and older version. Should be easier to convince such person to install the app, update the watch and uninstall than root (avoid warranty) and flash with pc.

It can be done from the computer too, no need to use a second phone. Check Global Huami Amazfit Smartwatches Group on Facebook (link on @1immortal signature ).
use these files for a manual update of the watch from your PC - https://mega.nz/#F!SI1XWSwC!2uYCCJ0e6vweO0LK-fDndA
Thanks guys, I managed to get it updated via old tablet I've kept it in my drawer for so long that I even forgot it. Now I've received the firmware update (1.3.8a) and able to connect to my phone.
now the problem is, once connected to my phone, there is a notification saying that Rom version 2.8.1.0 is available and asking me to update. I clicked update but nothing happened. It's a bit annoying now. Has anyone encountered this issue? I tried to connect my watch to my other phone (LG V20) and also it happened the same. I hope I don't need to go back to my tablet for another firmware update.
you need to wait, the 2.x.x.x update is a full rom, its some 300MB

Yes, from the watch, go to Settings> Connections and connect to Wifi. Then, go to Settings > Update. There it will download the latest version and install.

When I try to connect to Wifi, it asks me to write the password in the app, but the app doesn't show me a field for this. Can you help me please how to connect to Wifi network?
I had some minor annoyances with this too, bought the watch in official store 2 days ago. Just give it couple of tries, on a phone with android 7. You will succeed eventually. As I said, minor annoyance but since I updated it, I enjoy it
What I do see happening now, though, is probably large number of returns from people who don't know a lot about this kind of stuff. Store opened 2 days ago in Croatia, probably set some records, there was a line in front of the store whole day, it would be a shame if many people came back third day with complaints about unusable watches.

Try to un-install and re-install the Amazfit Watch app. You need to be in the ROM version 1.3.8a and pair the watch with the phone. Then, open the app before you do anything. Connect the watch to Wifi. Once the watch asked u to enter Wifi password on the phone, the phone should prompt you to do it.

Hi there, got xperia with broken? USB port - when plugged in to charger it charges (but doesn't show it's charging), when pluggen in to PC nothing happens (there must be a popup or notification in notification bar like i have on x8?)
the phone is really great, but it has only droid 1.6.
So is there any possibility to run update to at least 2.1 only from SD? not using the USB connection?
I have tried installing zdzihu's tool, but the phone says "cannot install application xRecovery Installer on this phone". Root made by Universal Androot and BusyBox installed in /system/bin/.
Hi,
you can do this in 2 ways.
1:
Use SEUS. Download the New 2.1. Version. Turn your Phone off. Flash your Phone with SEUS
2:
Use Flashtool and flash a custum or genric ROM

I had the same problem. I used the 2nd way
Here a guide how to flash your Phone:

really great, but PC doesn't find xperia when plugged in... so it didn't solve my problem.
use in settings the ota with wifi to update the Phone.
If the micrusb is not working, you should get that fixed 1st.
With phone rooted, busybox installed use xrecovery.apk from the official thread to install it.
Choose a nice firmware to install.

Cześć katorznik.
Got the same problem yesterday, bought on allegro like a new. I used it for 4 months, everything was perfect. Suddenly USB stopped working. It charges via charger but extremely slowly, via PC nothing happens. The biggest crap I have ever seen in a cell phone that class. :/ Of course I don't have warranty. Did they (service) explained why they cancelled your waranty? Did it happended suddenly or it was already in that condition when you received it? Have you dropped it on the ground etc? Any reasonable explanation?
It is propably impossible to update ypur phone OS without working USB transmission. Phone must be run into service mode first, than you can update basband (from what I know and I think I know much, this can be done only by USB cable) required for newer roms. After that and phone being rooted you can flash newer roms directly from SD. I'm "lucky" 'couse I managed to update baseband to .1.54 and Froyo just before that crap stopped working. Ehhhh.....
It's a physical damage, u r f****d..
Hey I am in need of some help.
Yesterday I decided that I need to root my ATT Motorola Atrix 4G in order to be to able to install third-party software and have the option of checking the unknown sources option and have full functionality of the phone.
So, I started by using the program Superoneclick and I followed all the instructions to the tee. During the rooting or shell rooting process it would freeze up at the 'running psneuter' and then loops and give me this message 'If it keeps looping, try disabling USB debugging now'. I did as it told me and it did not work. I tried the process over and over again for about 2-3 hours and still got the same issues.
So, after hours of researching and trying Superoneclick. I decided to use the Gingerbreak.exe found at briefmobile.com. So that worked I think because in Titanium backup it says it is rooted. What puzzles me is that the phone is supposedly 'rooted' but I don't have the unknown sources option to be checked. Also the superusers icon showed up but I do not even know what to do with that.
I would like assistances or advice when it comes to properly rooting my ATT Motorola Atrix 4G.
Thank you to anyone that can help.
my device doesnt show an option box to enable or disable sideloading but i can still sideload. i am pretty sure that i read the guy that made the hack didnt bother with the check box
also, if it doesnt work for you there is an app you can download from android central called the side loading wonder machine (or something like that). i have used it too and it works great when you are connected to your pc
I want to be able to install produces without having to keep connecting my phone to the computer.
Have you actually tried to install non market apps since rooting? As I said earlier, my phone doesn't indicate that I can side load but I can
Yes and it tells me i can't install it because i need to check that box. Which leads me to believe that the phone is not truly rooted. What do you think?
Being rooted and being able to side load are two different things. It sounds like you are rooted already so now you just have to enable side loading. Read the this thread carefully and see if it solves your issue

Thanks...what will this do exactly? and will i be able to receive the updates from att for the atrix still?
I did everything you did and it worked wonderfully thanks.
One more questions. How come I can install over the air from the market when i am on my pc? Why do i have to do it from the phone directly?

Is your question that you can or cannot use your pc to download to your phone over the air? You should be able to use your pc to push an app onto your phone from the market without wires.

When i am on the market website on my pc and i try to push an app to my phone it doesnt work. I have to go into the market store from my phone in order to get the app.
Just curious, what does this have to do with rooting?

Well i originally was having rooting issues. Now that I was helped and finally got my phone rooted i am experiencing this issue after rooting my phone. So why start a new thread?
I tried to update my P7510 wifi tab using the "About device" ---->"Software update"----->Update button in settings, but for some reason this button is not active; when I touch it nothing happens. It used to work till a few months ago and used to tell me there are no updates available. But for some reason it is not working anymore. I tried to update to ics using Kies but it cannot read the tablet.
I wonder if there is a solution to make the "update" button active again.
I had this problem in my Motorola milestone .......what I did was a factory reset

Thanks for the tip. I actually managed to install ICS on the tablet by following a convoluted semi-procedure that only works some of the times!
I read on some forum (do not remember where as I read a lot of stuff online in many forums to find a solution for this) that the trick to this is to use the wireless connection capability of Kies at the same time that the tablet is connected to the PC via the cable. It took a few trials and errors to get it right, but eventually it worked and although Kies kept saying that nothing is connected to it, it actually somehow somewhere in its program understood that the tablet is indeed connected to Kies via cable and so it gave me the permission to update the firmware and install ICS.
By the way my tablet is not rooted. I think the problem initially happened a few months a go when I uninstalled (or stopped, not sure) the "update" task of android. From then on, the tablet could not connect to its server to see if an update is available.
On a separate note, ICS seems fine to me but the lag in video/live stream issue is not good. I also hope like many others here for Samsung to come up with a fix for this soon.
Hi,
I hava a stratos 2 international version.
In the first os versions the clock was recognized by the pc without problems,
but as of version 2.3.5.0 the computer has stopped recognizing the clock.
Yesterday a friend came home with his watch, same version and we could verify that:
1. My clock with his base it is not recognized by the pc.
2. My brother clock is recognidzed automatically with my base or his base.
In other way we try:
1. Clean watch pins
2. Factory reset
Please any help is welcome.
I have been having same problem for so long after one update. It's really frustrating. Nothing seem to fix it. Did u find amy way to fix it?
If you are sure the metallic pins are clean and the cradle is fine, then most probably it's an internal connection issue (hardware). If you press it down firmly and/or twist it a little bit and it doesn't help, then your only solution is using WiFi to connect to watch, see tutorials elsewhere (works with adb, you may want to install PaceOn and FileManager+ to make things easier).
Just updated to 2.3.4.0 . Should I hold off updating to2.3.5.0, if this is aROM problem?

Yes, I am afraid so. my version 2.3.10.5 and I got problems like can not connect to the desktop. Synchronizing is so troublesome.
I have no issues. Watch is recognized by pc.
I am using a Galaxy S9+ running the latest version of SoldierROM (PIE, rooted) and I have been trying to use MirrorLink for a while now but it just refuses to work.
When I connect my phone to my car and choose MirrorLink, a couple of prompts pop-up that I accept and then the certificate fails to download.
I have tried updating to Android 10 and doing that, but the certificate still fails. Is it because I am rooted?
Someone posted about the same issue on XDA, but none of the solutions posted worked for me.
Thanks, guys!

Hi, try this:
Go to the app mirrorlink 1.1 and there to the storage. Here you Clear the data and the cache. Then connect once again your mobile with the car. The should ask for download again new fresh certificates. Not every time it works for every app, but then start again.
Hope it will help!

Thanks a lot for your reply. Unfortunately, I tried that many times without success, so I am assuming it might have to do with my device always being flagged as rooted even when I restore everything to stock.
I have the same phone with the same problem... did you manage to fix it?
Same issue over here. It would be nice to have a fix for this.
Now that Samsung wisely decide to drop support for MirrorLink, is there any work around this?
I have Note 9 and I just bought my frist car. It was jaw droping to see how bad samsung is! I just connect my phone I see certificate download error for MirrorLink 1.1.
