Hello,
I noticed this message today.
But I didn't upgrade it because I am not in Brazil.
Waiting for next update to correct some bugs concerning Heart rate, floors climbed.....
Since the update the steps count is not incrising. The countinus hr stoped but the solution was to set it off and on again.
Edit: restarted the watch and now the steps are incrising again. Lost a whole day of statistics.

The continuous heart rate is still malfunctioning. It is not working continuously as it should. It measures, then stops, then starts again and so on. A bit annoying. I advise not to update to this version.
I also lost a half day of tracking because of this update.
2.3.6.1 does not work!
Guys hello!
I have installed 2.3.6.1 yesterday and tried several different sport activites.
What can I say... I've got a strong desire to throw the watches into trash bin.
Three activities were tried: walking, running and treadmill. It appered to be that no one of them work! At all! Only timer were counting, but the other parameters were zeros: distance, calories, heart rate and so on. Even though for walking and running the gps was avaliable. Considering measuring heart rate, even the green leds on back side were dead for all the time.
Turning on backlight by raising arm did not work. But actually, having all the watches in not working condition, I paid not much attention to the backlight.
I thought, with new version 2.3.6.1, they introduced some new settings which have influence to the activities behavior. So I checked the settings menu, but did not discover any new options.
I ended up having no idea what to do with the watches. So any suggestion will be accepted with gratitude.
@pashapush,
Open the Amazfit app on the phone, wait for sync, then go to Unpair the watch. It will restore it to factory settings, open a barcode screen so you can add ti back again. Then it will restore last 7 days from the cloud back to watch. More-less in 3-5 minutes your watch will be same as before, just need to add a favorite watchface if it was from the third party.
Mentioned procedure always fixed any issues with my Stratos. Still a challenge for them firmware updates, but this simple step after each update should be applied if any issues occur.
To everybody
With latest ROM 2.3.6.1 I have finally solved the battery drain issue.
I have update to this rom and followed this trick https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77997450&postcount=35
and now its great
I have lost only 7% of battery in 24h, with HR continuos on and airplane mode.
with previous rom 2.3.6.0 even more than 30% in 24h

Hi ,
What is your trick? Link showed Page not found.
I bought this watch one week ago.
I had the stock firmware for the english version (2.3.2.8), heart rate always on, during the night i didn't get any drops (even if the values aren't that accurate).
I updated the stock to the 2.3.5 by mistake, then i just updated to the latest one, this one.
Now my heart rate while sleeping it's full of gaps in chart, only half a dozen of values for hour... It's not usable.
Anyone has experienced this?
Any tip to solve this?
Can i revert back to the stock firmware without unlocking the bootloader?
What's the most stable usable version of the firmwares available 2.3.2.7/2.3.2.8/2.3.4.0/2.3.5.0/2.3.6.0/2.3.6.1?
Thanks

Already done that.... Several times.
Plus, unpaired the watch and paired again, without restoring the history...
Nothing seems to correct the issue.
After some testing, i came to the conclusion that the watch is ignoring low heart rates...
I have a very low heart rate, when sleeping it can go to 30, in the older version of the firmware i could see 31, 32 and so on.
After updating the watch, the lowest value that i saw it's 47, the same value that i have for each night of sleep after the update.
I tried to measure the heart rate after woke up, and it's says it can't be measured, done this several times. So I get up, and tried again and then i get the 47.... I sit down, tried again and nothing...
So it looks like that it ignores/can't measure lower values, and that explains the huge gaps that i have in my charts.
Anyone can confirm/test this?

The battery in my case it's normal, 24h equals to 17% of the battery....
The recommended procedure:
Sync with the app.
Unpair the watch.
Restart the watch.
Pair again.
Some people say to reinstall the app and then when syncing leave the data only in the phone.
Hi guys! I'm new to the forum, so I'd like first of all to introduce myself : I´m a 40 yo Portuguese guy with a soft spot for gadgets
Anyway, what brings me to the forum: I recently bought the Amazfit Stratos 3. I've noticed this annoying feature (or is it a malfunction?): Everytime I go running, I set up the watch to track the training, and every time, after 1,6 km, the watch stops training by itself. Is it suposed to be like that, or is there something wrong with the watch/settings? Thank you for all the help

Greetings from Germany!
The actual Firmware 4.2.6.0 seems to be buggy when it comes to activities with GPS. A lot of users here experienced some issues after updating to 4.2.6.0. Have a look in this thread and the pictures from winni21 if they are similar to your problems:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82587745&postcount=5
We are waiting for a new fixed firmware for several weeks now. The only possible solution at the moment is to downgrade to 4.2.5.0. With 4.2.5.0 everything is runnig fine for me and other users. You have to unlock the bootloader to downgrade and you will lose your waranty with this step.
If you want to downgrade you can find the updater (downgrader) to 4.2.5.0 from saratoga here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/fw-tool-stock-global-international-t4031153
Good luck!
1!

First of all: Thanks for the reply! :good:
I've compared my issue with the one U mentioned (winni21), but it doesn't match my issue at all. Considering that I bought my unit a week ago, i´ll be hoping for a new FW update, because I don´t want to get a void warranty just yet. Anyway, i've trained today with my watch without the glitch: Ib trained with no goal setting, and the watch behaved "normally". Thanx for the help!
The update to 4.2.6 contains huge errors. All the tested outdoor activities don’t work with it. I have examined Run, Go, Hike, Biking.
After a short time it crashes. It shows senseless numbers (for instance a million of hours), then the data is lost. Newly starting it, this process repeats.
anyone have any solution for this?

so you can roll it back to previous ROM version with factory reset or is there any other way to do it?

nice, to hear it! ...i can't wait anymore.. having the same problems all the time.
after a software update 4.2.7. i have still the same issue with GPS... do you also have guys??
In my case, the watch stops recording activities after like 5 min, No error message or anything.... I'm really unhappy with amazfit/Xiaomi.... Most of the tech related products I've bought in the last 4 years are from Xiaomi (inc. a stratos 2 that died after 18 months of use)... I'm really thinking that Xiaomi is no longer at the level they were a while ago or they say they are... Very disappointed... Let's see if this gets fixed or I just give up and buy something else

Hello, impossible to find a gps signal on my amazfit stratos 3. Thanks, Toni.
Hi, i got stratos 3 two weeks ago and it has been working greatly and a big upgrade from Garmin vivofit, but one problem is that sleep tracking worked the first few days, but then i got back to work, i work on a fishing ship and it seems to have lost the sleep tracking abilty, not if it has anything to do with me being out at sea or what, the vivofit worked here so this one should too, installed amaszmod and it ate up the battery and notifaication where coming late but still nice to see everything. but i have uninstalled it and still no sleep tracking so probably not that. anyone knows anything that can help? thank you
maybe you are not in the right sleep interval for the watch ?
I go to sleep at 6:00AM and unsleep at 2:00PM and Stratos do not count my sleep because it is not right hours for the watch........
Maybe that's it, maybe it will work again when back at home, but hopefully they will check on this and fix, thank you

Hello. During cycling activity, a training reset occurs and data is not saved. Reset occurs spontaneously: maybe after 5km, or maybe after 70km. The watch vibrates and the training breaks.Has anyone encountered this problem, are there any ways to solve it?

Yesterday I drove 52km (~ 3 hours), the training was not interrupted. I will continue to test, I will write about the results after 10 workouts
