When I go out for running the GTR2 does not vibrate for 1km marks.
During the run the watch shows the always on screen (only time info) and when a new km is completed the normal run activity monitoring screen (duration + distance + pace + HR) pops up, but there is no vibration feedback.
If I move the wrist to show the activity monitoring screen right before the km mark and keep it on then the watch vibrates on the km mark and shows a big info screen with the pace of the last km.
I made a test enabling the 20 minutes on screen menu setting before I start the run to keep showing the activity screen. Then I got vibration + big pace info screen for every km until the 20min on period expired. After that, the watch turned back to only showing the run activity screen without vibration.
I was using Amazfit Pace before and there I always got vibration + summary info for every km.
This is an important feature for runners.
Does anyone know how to setup the GTR2 watch to get the vibration + pace info screen for every km during an entire run?
Thanks in advance!
Here is an update.
I disabled the AOD (always on display) mode and went for a run and then I got the vibration alert + big pace info screen for every km mark.
It doesn't make sense to have to disable AOD every time before running to be able to get the expected km mark alert...

Hello,
I installed Endomondo on my Gear fit, but it drains my battery. Is there any possibility how to turn display off after some time and turn it on only when I do a wrist movement? Or something like that? Because endomondo is having display still on and even when i turn it off by button, it turn it back on when the circuit notification shows (which is every kilometr = 2 minutes on bike).
Thanks for respond.
Neonik!
I found out, that when endomondo is "not running" - paused or stopped, display it turned off after time, that is set in fit gear settings. Is there any way how to apply this settings to my fit gear also when I'm running workout?
Hi,
I have downloaded some watch faces that are supposed to have a (moving) seconds hand in stand-by...but in my case, the seconds hand doesn't show in stand-by. Any clue what could be wrong?
Some background information:
My boot loader is unlocked, and I upgraded to 2.6.2.0 by means of the AmazeRom utility (scripts) from OSX (Mac). The watch is originally a Chinese Pace.
Thanks for any hints / ideas?
Eeg.
You have to enable the feature in watch settings:
Common/watchface/second hand
heys guys, i recently downloaded a calendar app that wakes my screen up when an event gets notified, fact is it just wakes up for like 2 secs.
in the calendar app settings you can decide how much time it has to stay awake, but it doesn't work at all. even if i set it up to stay awake for 30 secs, my screen gets back to sleep in like 2 secs, i tried to change every possible setting (display stuff, battery stuff etc) but i can't find a solution to it.
any idea pls? thanks
I trying to find the setting to turn off the screen while on running activity. I notice the screen is light on entire running activity until complete. I had already enable wrist lift option to turn on the screen when i need checking the running stats.
Anyway find the setting to turn it off or perhaps sleep mode. Thank you in advance.
There is no such option in Zepp application. I think there should be though, since having the screen on for ~2 hours is quite battery-consuming.
Yeh, that would be a nice option to have...
Yes hopefully they work on something with to turn off the screen. This version worst i compare to Amazfit Pace which have the easy lock function and the max heart rate alert.
But T-Rex really disappointed despite launched later time compare to Pace. First generation even better and seems T-Rex going backward.
Hi All,
I had a T-REX (non PRO) for 2 months and now I bought a T-REX PRO.
Other than a different UI and some more functions, I noticed two things:
- on the T-REX if I press the "BACK" button the screen turns off, if I press "BACK" on the T-REX PRO the app menu appears: is there a way to "program" the "BACK" button to turn off the screen?
- I often use the "countdown timer", on the T-REX the countdown keep running and the screen turns off after the "timeout screen" set and vibrates when the countdown reaches 0, on the T-REX PRO the screen stays on as long as the countdown runs: is there a way to turn off the screen while the countdown runs (as on the T-REX)?
Thank you, best regards.

In both situations: cover watch screen with your other hand and it will turn off immediately. T-Rex Pro is more similar to Stratos 3 than to regular T-Rex and some handy features are known by people that used all those watches.
I tried but...it worked just one time out of 5 tests...the other 4 the screen simply dimmed but didn't turn off.
You have to get used to it, there is no other way.
Maybe I found the issue....I tried to disable AOD and the "trick" works, if I enable AOD sometimes it switch back to the AOD watchface (and the countdown still runs), most of the times the screen simply dims.
