hello all !
i have a problem with my amazfit watch at the heart rate when i runnig. I usually run at 5 and a half minutes per kilometer and the clock does not record a pulse throw the run, and when i finish running the summry display shows that I ran the whole run (100%) at a rate of heating. Even when I increase the speed it still does not show a change in the pulse or its percentage.
On the other hand, when I run out sometimes at a pace that is slow for me, about 7:30 to 8 minutes per kilometer, he starts to show me the heart rate meter while running and in the summation he divides it into categories like aerobics, un aerobics, fat burning and e.g
What is the problem and how can it be resolved?
Is it a problem of initial setup and calibration and if so, how can this problem be fixed?
thanks for help
Try enabling continuous HRM: in the HR widget, tap on the graph to enable continuous mode. You may need to disable it when not needed because it drains more battery, of course.

Probabaly lagged on the real time screen? Have you compare it with the reading on the apps? How does it look like? Is it the same?
And 3rdly, you might want to check again you personal detail such as age sex weight etc on the profile in the Amazfit app.
As a runner, me too dissappointed with these heart rate meter reading. I don't event know the rage or this hr zone. Unlike garmin or starva.
Hope that's help.

Has someone updated ? impessions?
Yep, i have but not been in activities to proove improovements... ???
I have installed as well. No workouts yet. I have seen an extra menu item in run extra settings that is called virtual rabbit. I guess it is a ghost runner to keep you in pace. Interstellar watchface looks nice.
I can not understand what "real-time track in the real-time track page lock screen under outdoor sports" refers to.

I also noticed that and was wondering what the difference with pace alerts were. Both should notify you when you go outside a predefined pace, I guess.
Not done much since installing but the continuous heart rate appears to be more responsive when I move and thus my HR increases.
Previously I could go for a brisk walk and it wouldn't notice any change on the watch.
Fingers crossed its fixed.
On new watchface, there is a tiny heart on top. Does anybody get his/her heartrate shown on that watchface?
I do not think it shows heart rate. I have the eternal moment watchface which is showing HR data. Anyway I did not seem much changes, just the new watchface and the virtual rabbit. The update is mostly bug fixing which is a good thing. Still I am missing a cardio and yoga activity type.

I've just installed the update. Watchface looks nice.
But I don't know how to use Virtual rabbit and Real-time track.
Waiting for other's feedbacks.

Hi
I also saw a heart on top but there's no HR number. Is it simply a symbol?
To me prototype source will always be the best watch face but the new face is a nice addition.
Haven't noticed much new stuff, the UI seems more fluid but that just might be a placebo.
I hope the next update they make an effort to fix the pretty terrible step counting.
Tested it with a bit of cycling back from work. One thing I noticed is it no longer vibrates when auto-pause switches on and off.
As others said, HR seemed responsive and accurate (but that couldn't mean anything, since it was pretty much accurate when cycling previously as well). Will test it tomorrow morning with some trail running and, fingers crossed, I hope to see some good changes
Edit: Also, I noticed the bug with synchronizing rides to strava showing up as runs has been fixed.
Well, i don't know if it's a bug with the new firmware - but it does not sync the sleep datas anymore. I have the datas from last night on my phone but not synced with the Amazfi app....
I have also updated yesterday, continuous heartrate seems much more reliable now. Tested several times, finger on wrist and counting, real heartrate 58 watch stated 59, real 76 watch 76, 87/88 and so on, before update the watch sometimes measured a heartrate of 40 when it really was at 80 or 90 and it was always approx. 10-15 beats to low. Now it seems to be useable.
[email protected]: Sleep was tracked correctly last nigth but I had some cases (2 or 3 in half a year) when sleep was not recognized for no reason so it could be an issue not depending on this update. Sometimes sleep data were correct on watch but simply didn't show up in app, after several syncs sleep data suddenly appeared.
Edit: Steps are also more accurate now, watch starts counting now after 10 steps not 30 like before so short walks to the fridge are recognized now.

Seem still bad and not usable. Little test :
- Garmin F3 : 543 steps
- Stratos : 275 steps
so Stratos count almost half steps. I think it have still 1/3 real steps because Garmin count only after 10 steps.
So daily steps count with stratos still totally wrong
"Time to stand up, you've been sitting for a while" alerts seem broken now. Granted, they still only occurred while sitting, but I think I went to the fridge to get a beer 3-4 minutes ago, and now it says I've been sitting for a long time Maybe now it does not count small movements like short strolls, only longer ones.

It is a pressure (barometric) altimeter which determines the altitude based on the pressure with some calibration. Known altitude, pressure, and temperature of a near reference point can be used to calibrate PaceUp to give more accurate altitude. By default, the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) values are used.
This is one of my Pace(X) series (On, Off, Up & Down).
Disclaimer:
It's important to note here that it is just impossible to determine the exact altitude based only on air pressure. This is because it deals with many non-uniform factors such as temperature, humidity, geo-asphericity, and variation of gravity. I am not responsible for any bad things caused by using this app, and blah, blah, blah. You are solely fully responsible for your own safety.
With that being said, PaceUp can give pretty good altitude reading when calibrated with good local reference values. It's pretty accurate for measuring an object height. With no calibration, you still can measure your own height.
Installation:
It is an APK file that can be installed on Pace/Stratos/Verge using ADB or other means.
Here is how to use ADB.
To uninstall via ADB,
adb uninstall com.anox.paceup
Usage:
Once opened, the app automatically shows the current pressure and the altitude of the current location using the ISA default values or the previous reference values if available. The altitude shown is relative to mean sea level (MSL). That means the (vertical) distance between the watch and MSL. The altitude reading is automatically updated when the pressure changes. Also, the screen is kept on while the app is running in the foreground.
- P is the current pressure reading at the current location.
- P(r) is the pressure at your reference point.
- A(r) is the altitude at your reference point.
- Clicking on any of these values pops up a custom keypad to change its value.
- The R button retrieves the saved reference values and puts them into the reference fields.
- The B button loads the current pressure value from the barometer into the P(r).
- The D button resets all the reference values to the ISA defaults.
- Units can be changed by clicking on the unit button at the end of each row.
- The calculated altitude (A) has the same unit as A(r) and P has the same unit as P(r).
- The Z button zooms in on the calculated altitude (A) so that it is easy to read. The 1st tap on the zoomed-in screen rotates the text -90 degrees. The 2nd tap rotates the text 90 degrees. The 3rd tap gets out of the zoomed-in screen and back to the normal screen.
The last reference value set is saved before closing/putting the app into the background.
The B button makes it easy to set the 0 m/ft reference level, and convenient just to see the current pressure value from the built-in barometer.
Calibration:
The most accurate readings can be obtained by using the current reference values from the nearest point. Just enter the values and the calibrated altitude is automatically shown.
Tips:
Airports around the world have METeorological Aerodrome Reports (METARs) available for the public. METARs contain current temperature along with QNH which is the atmospheric pressure adjusted to MSL. METARs can be obtained from many online sites such as
https://www.aviationweather.gov/metar
So, if you don't have any near reference point, what you have to do is:
- find out your nearest airport's ICAO code
- get the current METAR from some website
- enter T(r) with the temperature, P(r) with the QNH pressure, and leave A(r) as 0
Examples of usage:
Supposing I am at Queen Charlotte Track in New Zealand and I don't have any near reference values. I'd get the current online METAR from the nearest airport which is Wellington International Airport using this link. https://www.aviationweather.gov/metar/data?ids=NZWN
The current METAR code I got is: NZWN 260230Z AUTO 01026KT 9999 FEW027/// 21/12 Q1012 NOSIG
In the METAR code, the word starting with Q is the current QNH. So, I'd calibrate PaceUp with P(r)=1012 and A(r)=0.
To measure the height of an object:
For example,
> Measure your own height
No need to calibrate, just use the defaults. Place the watch on the floor where you're standing and take an altitude reading. Then, place the watch on top of your head while standing straight and take another altitude reading. The difference between the two readings is your height. You can also use the procedure described in the next section.
> See in real time how high you climb up a mountain:
Before starting climbing, calibrate the app using the current pressure (by clicking the B button) and leave Ar as 0. This is your reference level and the altitude reading should be 0. While climbing up, the actual altitude reading is the height above your reference level. (Negative altitude reading means it's below the reference level.)
Note:
The app is free for personal use. Please do not upload it to other sites.

Version 1.0
Initial release
Though my app creation/testing is quite limited to my resource, I still find it's more accurate that anything else avialable on the watch.
Please do share your experience of using the app.
I will try it this weekend. Many thanks. I am surprised that no one has made an app that shows the rise & fall in atmospheric pressure for local forecasting. My old Suunto had it. There is a pressure graph app but the intervals are too short, minutes or seconds, so it collects way too much data.
That's a nice app. +1 from me
Great,
This is a long waited app for Pace.
As a first improvement I would suggest to keep the settings when you close the app
Regarding the temperature, how are using it?
In my experience wearable are not at the ambient temperature due to proximity to the body.
For instance, I have good result if I use the default temperature of 15C instead of the actual temperature.
Ciao

Hi @anox,
I'm trying to calibrate the barometer of my Pace.
I use the METAR info of the nearest airport to me, El Altet airport of Alicante.
It is very close to sea at sealevel.
I put the info in your app, but the altitudes value calculated is very wrong (attached image).
I notilced a few months ago when i'm doing an activity the altitude stuck at first value and does not change at all.
I had the hope calubrating it with your app the issue will be fixed, but ir isn't,
So, there is any way ro reset the barometer in order to see if it is fixed?
Thx.
@jmpcarceles
This app does not "calibrate" the sensor, it allows you to use standard values to get an estimation of the current altitude.
First, you must make sure the barometer is working: make sure the hole that leads to the sensor is clean, and that the value changes in the app when you put the watch at the floor level and above your head. If it doesn't but you get a value, try turning the watch OFF for at least 15s (restarting isn't enough). If you get zero or a non sense stuck value, maybe the barometer was damaged by water.
I also think that saving the current values would be nice, and also an option to record the altitude every 30min or 1h.

T(r) is the temperature at the reference point. The temperature of the watch location isn't taken into account. By the way, none of these watches has a thermometer.

Please see lfom's comments below yours.
On the software side, you may try clearing cache/data of the built-in barometer related apps or perhaps factory resetting the watch.

Most of the time the reference values will change from the previous ones. METARs typically are generated once half-hour or an hour. Anyway, I also can see in some cases it may be convenient to be able to retrieve the previous reference values. So, an option to do so will be in the next version. The altitude recording is not on my list though.
Thanks for that, I'll try it the next time I'm climbing longer distances.

Dear anox
Is it possible to determine the altitude by GPS?
I have removed the barometer of my pace because of battery leakage.

Sure. That is how most smartphones determine the altitude.
On your Pace, have you tried the built-in compass widget? The altitude is determined using GPS.
If that doesn't work, there may be some GPS apps on the Play Store that can run on Pace and give you altitude readings.
I believe the altitude accuracy from GPS is less than that from a barometric altimeter, though.

Hi, could you put a beep (sound) when the altitude gets to up ou down? The beep would help flying paragliding, like a variometer warning. Congratulation, it's an amazing app.

Huh? Pace always have AlwaysOnDisplay, what are you taking about? If you get a black screen while screen is locked and you are using a custom APK watchface then you need to uninstall the current version, restart the device and seek for a new version that also works with Stratos firmware 2.3.7.0+, older APKs don't work anymore....
Calories are now much more accurate on my cycle

I think some of them exists in older roms already. ?
How do you disable the sport autostart ? Every time, as I am returning from walking the dog, I get a message saying I have started a walk - about 30 mins after it started
From some other thread:
lfom said:
Latest firmwares for all watches (Pace/Stratos/Verge) introduced "Activity reminders" (also called Sports reminders on Verge) that are supposed to auto-start and auto-stop recording activities, but they have a bug (besides the fact that I don't think they actually work as of now): even if both are disabled by default you must enable and then disable both options in watch Settings -> General or your activity most probably will miss the first initial and final minutes of GPS data. Simply enable both, quit settings then go back and disable them again and it should be fine.

Finally, Thai language support, but it renders text incorrectly in standby screen as it doesn't render upper and lower character, for example, words like "หู้" will be rendered as "ห" in standby screen, but it will be rendered correctly in active screen. Also, its Thai font is too wide.
Do you think that this update is useful?

" I think he meant when there is a notification coming --> your screen turns on = it immediately starts the high refresh rate (presumably you set it at higher than 60hz). Also when never you use Always on display, although it seems that just the clock or some notifications are showing on a completely black screen, the screen still has that high refresh rate (because you set it system-wide). What this app does is forcing the everything shows in the lockscreen and AOD to keep the refresh rate at 48hz (no matter what refresh rate you set your system at). Hope this cools down the heat guys "
Simple explanation:
-pressing power button while screen is unlocked will trigger 48hz.
-pressing power button while screen is locked and mostly black will trigger 120hz.
-anything that happens after pressing the power button (while unlocked) will be displayed in 48hz (AOD,charging status,notifications,call UI,etc).
TO DO:
Add settings so the user can choose the refresh rate to be set on SCREEN_ON (if asked).
I'm fairly sure that Samsung has 120hz implemented to be dynamic by default. 120hz on lineage feels very different because we don't have any of their OneUI parameters.
Just a hunch, I haven't really taken apart the OneUI ROMs.

The only way I could test this is by running one of my apps that reads the refresh rate from Android Studio while screen is off.The refresh rate remains the same when screen is closed.If 120 is set in settings,120 is always set (nothing dynamic).
I'm sure it feels better on your ROM.

So do you have all you work combined in one app now?
Nope
The GitHub repository doesn't contain any code. It's just readme.md file. Can you share the code?
Edit: Sorry I missed it. Thanks for the app.

Hello,sure.The code is there,pay attention to what is written in readme file "Full project can be found on master branch."
https://github.com/TheViciousGames/S20-Advanced-Lockscreen-ROOT/tree/master
Fixed app crashes.The app will no longer crash after enabling the service.
"Context.startForegroundService() did not then call Service.startForeground()" this was the error encountered.It's very common on stackoverflow.Finally fixed it.
If someone else has this problem,it was pretty easy to fix,all I had to do was to create a notification channel and a notification builder with an id higher than 0,basically creating a notification for the service.
New version will be released later today or tommorow.
Without root works?

It doesn't,I'm sorry!
I was so tired last night that I uploaded the old version again.I'm sorry,it should update now on Play Store.
Today I'll upload 2 videos:
-how to disable the notification for this app
-48hz while screen off proof
*I keep saying lockscreen but it's about while the screen is off.My bad*
Is it possible by using adb?

I mean..you can change to 48hz using ADB but you cannot do that automatically while screen is off.
You would have to run the command manually (to 48 and to 120) 100 times a day,I think you do not want that

you can try something like that with bixby routines but just changing to 60hz
But, may I ask, what is the point of changing the refresh rate of the screen when it is off? I mean afaik when it is off, it already refreshes at 0Hz because, well, it is off.

Right,you could probably do that but I'm always debloating everything and 48hz is lower.

You're wrong,you probably wanted to say 0 FPS and not 0 Hz.Changing this helps with AOD,clock,notifications,etc,that's when the display is not really off.
EDIT:
I meant 1 FPS,because nothing is moving.
How does it save battery when the screen is off... the screen isn't refreshing at 120hz because its off already? Makes no sense to me?

You keep asking the same questions all over again. When the screen is off it still runs as a120hz screen. You could research how that works.
