[MENTION=7988660]CrazySammy[/MENTION]

I had failed to installed ANDROID SDK and google usb driver for the lack of knowledge...

then i search youtube and found rober guti tutorial which is step by step instalation of this thread.

it is exactly the same as what iv done but the result was different...

i run this (ADB, Fastboot and Drivers - 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3--- i think it has the same function as google usb driver as you mention before) first before run the cmd...

when i cmd adb devices i had my device number list,

then I search in computer management ----> device manager and found my device as Portable devices -----> Amazfit Smart Watch..

push all the file in command succesfully

Problem occured when Command Adb shell reboot bootloader. my devices was not list anymore....

i check computer management again and my device was gone... nothing left..

FYI a few day ago i had perform some action that make 70% of the menu change from chinese to english.. is it affect this convert process right now..?

Thanx
[Amazfit] heger:
Thanks again. Where can I find img's you revering to? And is there no need to change the: adb push flash_eng_version.sh /sdcard/ command?

I like to know, because this version is bugging me. Did't realize that (for me!) the disadvantages would top the advantages. In my case that's what happened. F.i. I can't sync my (Amazfit)activity Sync with MiFit anymore, I lost the bike mode on my watch, which is a pity. Didn't realize that. It registrates all my activies in miles in stead of my prefered kilometers. Didn't realize that either....... So if you can lead me the way, it would be very much appreciated................
[Amazfit] lordzahl:
If you have used the last (new) version of Neuer_users Script, it should have created

boot.bak.img.gz

system.bak.img.gz

which contain you original watch image versions. As well as md5s.bak.txt. Pull them from the watch and keep them save. Then make a copy of them so the .bak is removed and they are named as the eng files from the .zip from Neuer_user.

The script convert_to_eng.sh script has not to be changed, since it is a generic backup/flashing script.

I did not test this! This is just my generic unix knowledge ;)
[Amazfit] CrazySammy:
if you mean setting language property to "US" via adb then it should not be a problem. I think this is drivers problem. When you see "PC display" on your watch and after waiting for a minute, don't you have any "Android 1.0" in your windows device manager?
[Amazfit] perritos:
Hi all, I've flashed my CN Amazfit to US firmware with the first version of the script, then without backup.

Does somebody have a recent version of the Chinese firmware for restore to the original version?

Thanks
[Amazfit] carlaw:
Hi guys

anyone is able to converto miles in km? A lot of people as me, can't properly train due to this issue, please help me!
[Amazfit] heger:
I can't see no .bak image versions in the menu of my watch. Only :

boot.img.gz

system.img.gz and

md5s.txt

Pull them from the watch, you say? I did this to try with system.img.gz and it copied itself on my Desktop. So do you mean pull them out, delete the versions in the watchmenu? and then (after copying the pulled out versions) go through the installation / convertingprocess again?
[Amazfit] lordzahl:
The english firmware is miles only at the moment. Chinese has km.

Than you probably have still used the old script and no backup of your original firmware. Sorry but i can't help you further. There should be a Chinese firmware down this thread somewhere.
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
Chinese fw 1.2.3:

Ok, it's a bit of a disappointment, but I'm grateful for your help and time! Thanks :)

Thanks. Maybe I give it a try...............
[Amazfit] XeYex:
I have tried It and it is a really good way to flash ch version :good:
[Amazfit] the-rock-545:
Well, all is bricked ^^

I followed the steps but it got stuck at

"Creating system.img.bak"

I waited for like 45 minutes. In the end i opened a new CMD and tried a reboot. Now it is stuck in the boot logo.

I tried listing it again, with killing and restarting the adb server.

When i type "Adb shell" now it says:

"- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) - using port=5555"

pushing file doesn't work either, it says:

"failed to copy 'boot.img' to /sdcard/: Is a directory"

"Adb reboot recovery" doesn't help either.

If someone finds a solution, i would be happy. Otherwise i now have a pile of electro garbage.
[Amazfit] chanly307:
Still frozen :(

I have flashed with the watch being on a very early firmware (no updates done after purchase) and ..frozen in all times, flashed to ENG, then return in several ways..trying last one post...frozen :(
[Amazfit] the-rock-545:
Same for me. I flashed on the stock firmware. Maybe that was the basic problem. We need a recovery option for us ;)
[Amazfit] Harton0:
Yes.. I think this is drivers problem also since ive never seen "Android 1.0" in my device manager...

For now i will postpone the convert procces and take some times to learn bout driver instalation..

it will take times for someone that have no experience like me but i think i will have a try..

Thanks alot for ur help sammy... u rocks

Hartono
[Amazfit] carlaw:
I knew, of course, but can't believe that it's so hard to fix.......

Beer, beer, beer for the guy who will convert english fw to metric.
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
[MENTION=7988660]CrazySammy[/MENTION] is working with [MENTION=263055]ryhor[/MENTION] to get a dump of his watch. He still has the old version. If they succeed, then you can try flashing back to the old version, which should completely revert your watch (at least from what we know).
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
That is strange. According to this, the script was only doing the backup of the system image (which apparently can sometimes take up to 30min). At this stage NO changes are done to the watch. The system image is not even mounted.

Only the next step (flashing) would modify the watch. And before that starts, it waits for your confirmation (hitting enter on your keyboard). So, that really is strange. :confused:

Sorry to say so, but this really looks bad. :( [MENTION=576939]1immortal[/MENTION] has the same symptoms, but he incorrectly flashed the system partition via fastboot (and thus destroyed the system partiition). So, I fear it looks really bricked. If you can, try to get into fastboot mode again. There is a video showing a guy entering fastboot from a bootloop. (I have not been able to reproduce it, but give it a try.). If you manage to get into fastboot, you can reflash the system partition and unbrick the watch.
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
Dumping firmware (without flashing)

Here is the tutorial, howto dump firmware (e.g. from an old fw):

https://xdaforums.com/smartwatch/ot...mi-amazfit-t3532508/post70467067#post70467067

This will not flash or modify the watch. So there should be NO risk (except striking meteorites or similar).

PS: It has worked. I had to wait 20 minuts for the MD5 check i think.

After reboot everything worked fine.

Thanks to everyone worked on this conversion
[Amazfit] the-rock-545:
Can you post the link to the video?
[Amazfit] heger:
Ok, thanks. How did you do it?

Did you deleted the boot.img.gz, system.img.gz andmd5s.txt from the menu of your watch first and than proceed or just "overwrite" the English version? Hope you will help me with the steps.......

With big aid CrazySammy We did make dump version 0.9.5.0 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2kU38I-wWYJWDh0VW1paFRpaGs?usp=sharing
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
Thanks a lot. Great work!

I will check the files to see that they are ok and verify the version. Then I can prepare instructions for one brave guy with touchscreen freezes to flash back to this version, hoping that this removes his issues. Let's keep fingers crossed.
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
First feedback: Looks good! System image can be mounted and contains the right version number (0.9.50):

# begin build properties
# autogenerated by buildinfo.sh
ro.build.id=LMY47D
ro.build.display.id=huanghe-0.9.50

Also the boot.img seems to be readable:

boot.img: Android bootimg, kernel (0x10008000), ramdisk (0x11000000), page size: 2048
[Amazfit] CrazySammy:

watch emulator

Hi my friend.

I'm wondering if is possible create some watch emulator using these system.img ? What do you think?
[Amazfit] the-rock-545:
Just in case to be clear:

Is there any chance you'll be working on a way for people to unbrick their devices any time soon (considering it's even possible)?

Again, to describe, what exactly happend, as i can recollect it:

I followed every step till the flashing part. It started and it stopped at "Creating system.img.bak". After a while, i opened another CMD and rebooted the device.

As it seemed, it may have been in the middle of flashing, because after the reboot, it got stuck on the Amazfit logo while booting.

Now, i can still list the device via "adb devices" and it shows up, but when i type "adb shell" it just answers: "- exec '/system/bin/sh/' failed: No such file or directory (2) - using port=5555"

I can still use "adb reboot recover" and it lands in the mode with the triangle sign. But in that mode it doesn't find devices if i type "adb devices". After a while the tringle sign vanishes and it starts up again in the bootloop.

If i try "adb push boot.img.gz /sdcard/" it says "adb: error: failed to copy 'boot.img.gz' to '/sdcard/': ls a directory"

If i use a tool like "ADB Fileexplorer" it still lists things like "sdcard" and "storage"

Shuting down the device and connecting it to a USB cable still shows the battery percentage, but i guess that is seperate from the parts that i broke.

The trick from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQoJonPOwtg to boot into Fastboot doesn't work either.

That is as far as my knowledge goes with ADB. I guess my system is gone, but still: Do you see a possibility in the future to repair this or is it electronic garbage now? Is there any other way to get to the files or reload the system? As this seems to be Android based, is there another tool i can misuse to maybe gain access to the device?

Thanks for any advice. Hope i documented this well enough for maybe a glimpse of a solution.

how to download mega.nz/#!RVlBzKyI!CL091hmRd...eqbEww-NV5GCdY (CN 1.2.3 FW)? what the code or authentic code on mega?
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
So, here is the file to flash the old cn version 0.9.50:

https://mega.nz/#!tBUHWQ7B!mD9vs9TQJ10df39BqEMr1vFXIY_-ZhFMA66MZ2LJwuA

Instructions are included (similar to original flash script). I just exchanged the image files and the md5.txt.

Please consider this untested. I have NOT flashed back my device to test it.

THIS IS MEANT FOR THOSE PEOPLE THAT HAVE FREEZE ISSUES, BECAUSE THEY FLASHED THE ENGLISH VERSION COMING FROM AN OLD CHINESE FW.

If one brave guy wants to try it. It should not brick your device, but it does a complete reflash (which, if interrupted, can brick the device). Please report afterwards, if it fixes the freeze issues.
[Amazfit] mewzik86:

I was also able to solve the freezing issue by going back to the old Chinese firmware and upgrading to the latest before converting to the English firmware.
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
Very glad to hear that. Thanks to [MENTION=7988660]CrazySammy[/MENTION] and [MENTION=263055]ryhor[/MENTION]
[Amazfit] lordlynx:
Hey Neuer_User - firstly, thanks for pouring so much time into trying to make these watches even better!

I have the same 'screen freezes when off charge and idle for a few secs' issue, after flashing the English firmware.

Actually flashing a trusting friend's watch overnight without much back-story or the app installed etc, so I didn't have an opportunity to check for updates .. but I did do a 'getprop' before running the script, which among other things revealed

[ro.build.date.utc]: [1471218645]
[ro.build.date]: [Mon Aug 15 07:50:45 CST 2016]
[ro.build.description]: [huanghe-user 5.1 LMY47D 15 release-keys]
[ro.build.display.id]: [huanghe-0.9.50]
[ro.build.fingerprint]: [Huami/huanghe/watch:5.1/LMY47D/15:user/release-keys]
[ro.build.flavor]: [huanghe-user]

I only flashed a couple of hours ago, meaning I used your current version of the script which creates a backup prior to flashing.

Before hitting enter on the Flash, I opened another window to pull down the system, boot and md5 backups.

My backups differ from your 0.9.5 rollback eg. checksums are different.

More than that, the system.bak.img.gz created by this watch was barely 150MB, where the supplied copy is just under 200MB. Same size decompressed though (864,026,624 bytes).

Am I safest to roll back to 'my' own backups instead of using the ones supplied, or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance!
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
There can easily be a difference from several MB in the unused part of the partition. If you send me your dump, I can verify and compare it file by file.
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
As far as i understand you guys have an old Firmware now?

Then i can just start playing around when my watch arrives.

Anyway i will have a short look on the Firmware and if it is different to 0.9.50 i will give a short feed back. You never know what it might be good for in the future. ;)

Just can't wait to get that little thing in my hands.

Thanks for the good work so far. :good::)
[Amazfit] alexinc:
Just wanna say thanks to all who contributed that hard especially [MENTION=2750664]Neuer_User[/MENTION] of course! Didn't flash yet cause of newer cn-firmware but really looking forward to latest updates with translation. Thanks again and glad for the guys that can flash old version now to reactivate their watches. Hopefully the last mystery with booting into recovery gets solved soon too. :)
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
What is your Version?

Is it possible to update step by step or do you go from 0.9.50 to the newest version when updating OTA?
[Amazfit] alexinc:
You are going directly from 0.9.50 to latest, when upgrading out of the box. 1.2.4f till tomorrow, I guess... ;)

Btw. don't get fooled by the version numbers, us firmware is higher, but way older!
[Amazfit] grandir:
Thank's a lot..

freeze problem solved going back to 9.5 and upgrading from that versions

great work....
[Amazfit] fespafer:
For all those who have to perform a factory reset coming from a chinenglish watch, just tell you to be patient.. I thought my watch was bricked, but it took around 5 minutes to reboot. Just for you to know it in case pushing the button come across your mind during the process. Regards
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
Thanks!

Are you going to try flashing it to US firmware again?
[Amazfit] fespafer:
After factory reset, I can't find 'developer options' even after taping several times in every item in Info menu. Any tip?
[Amazfit] alexinc:
US doesn't have this option in actual version or at least know one found out how to activate it till now.

The switch back to chinese, update to latest firmware, then reflash to english has FIXED my watch!

Now, it vibrates for phonecalls, but I am not getting any text notifications on my watch. Also, how does one turn on and off the gps?

Also, I get "AGPS has expired, gps searching will be slow Please connect the Amazfit watch app to update it" but it IS connected.
[Amazfit] fespafer:
Thanks for your answer. I had it before factory reset. I guess it kept from Chinese after flashing English firmware

push on "sync" option in amazfit app that is located next to the watch in the screen
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
So you flashed 0.9.50 and then updated to ??? 1.2.4 ??? and then flashed the US firmware?
[Amazfit] CrazySammy:
Yes, if you revert your watches to 0.9.5, then update them and set english firmware it works (i did it, and my watches now perfectly working in english)
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
I'm very happy that we found a solution to fix the problems with the freezes people experienced when having flashed from a very early Chinese Version. :)

Now, we still need to find a way to unbrick watches that had an unsuccessful flash (currently two watches, one being interrupted during flashing, the other being flashed from fastboot.).
[Amazfit] XeYex:
Good Morning to everyone.

Yesterday I tried to flash 0.9.5 chinese firmware in my watch where I had previously 1.2.4f firmware.

I tried to flash It to solve my connectivity problems, but now over that problems I have the screen freeze ptoblem too ?

Could I solve screen problema upgrading my Watch ti 1.2.4f firmware?
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
Flashing to 0.9.50 was never meant to fix anything else than the Freeze problems people were having that flashed to the English version from very early Chinese version. This has clearly been stated in the post above.

To answer your question: My best recommendation is to flash back to the last version you had without freeze problems (so probably 1.2.3).
[Amazfit] XeYex:
I tried to flash 0.9.5 ch version ti give a try to solve my problem. There are some people in this thread, and out of It too, wich have the same problem and I think they could be Happy to find a solution ti their problems like me instead send their Watch back to the seller...

Sorry if I flame a bit with this story ?
[Amazfit] Pi3rluigi:

How to update to latest firmware ???
[Amazfit] GrassFire:
Yes. I flashed back to 0.9.50, downloaded the latest update via the WiFi connection on it (FYI - no WiFi on english version! - no settings button at all), then flashed the US firmware.

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

Just to be clear - the whole "Gear" looking icon with Wifi and other settings is TOTALLY MISSING from the US version, right?
[Amazfit] kamalsahhar123456:
Is it safe to format after flashing the English Rom :confused::rolleyes:
[Amazfit] Neuer_User:
No, that is not correct. The US version (at least on my watch) still has the "More Settings" Gear and the items below including "Wifi" etc.

Maybe you should reset the watch (delete everything). Typically just unpairing the watch should do that.
[Amazfit] GrassFire:
Hmm...I unpaired it and re-paired it.

I have no settings button. My screens are

i can't find the screen with the settings on it anywhere. - WAIT, it is there now, when swiping down on the watch screen. It was not before.

Hi Guys!

I am going to check previous posts but since the freeze I got, I successfully downgraded to 0.9.50 chinese release. The freeze issue disappeared.

But it come back when installing the 1.2.3 chinese one.

It sounds 1.2.4 is the one fixing the freezing issue. I will try and let u know

Anyway, thanks a lot for the work and help [MENTION=7988660]CrazySammy[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2750664]Neuer_User[/MENTION]!
[Amazfit] losteagle:
Yes I know, but camera's translation it's not so good.

In the new 1.2.5a chinese firmware there is a new Training Center with different options : Novice, 5Km, 10km, Half marathon and Full marathon, a new watch face with customization settings (from the watch) and support for WeChat notifications (with a red envelope notification).

Changelog also speeks about "improved data syncronization" but it's requested last 1.2.0 version of Amazfit watch chinese app.

Searching around the web I find the new 1.2.0 Amazfit app on Baidu, I uploaded here : https://app.box.com/s/iod93ka6zckhtgtdu133etfcaatxe037

From my point of view it's not a good idea migrate now from Chinese to English firmware when the first one have continuos weekly improvements.
[Amazfit] GrassFire:
Unless you don't read chinese.
[Amazfit] mvanstralen:
The training center offers predefined training schemes towards these target events. Good to see that they keep adding new features to the watch. I wonder how useful the training center is. To me, it seems like something that could be better offered in the app, to be able to adjust it to preferred training days etc. Although, the small advantage of offering it in the watch itself is that you don't need the phone to do the training.

Did you install the new 1.2.0 Amazfit app too? Does it keep synchronization with Strava, if coming from the international 1.1.7.1 version?
[Amazfit] losteagle:
What I want to say is that it's more interesting translate the Chinese firmware than using the old English one!

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ----------

No, it's the upgrade of 1.1.9 Chinese with English language but synchronization with Mifit and Midong.
