I just want to mention that you can still find new Amazfit watches with earlier rom versions. I just bought one new last night from a Xiaomi store with the 1.0 version of the Chinese rom.

As soon as I got home I installed the PACEfied rom and it works great.

downgrade phone app

Hi,

I would like to use official android store mobile app.

I am currently with 1.3.3.2-dev. impossible to downgrade to another older version.

Do I have to unistall before install a new version, and will I lose pairing with the watch ?
[Amazfit] imarinop:
I am afraind I am having simillar battery problems and I am thinking of going back to offcial CN rom. What method did you use to flash the 1.2.15 rom? I am trying to follow the steps in the unbrick your watch thread (https://xdaforums.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/tutorial-unbrick-huami-amazfit-t3547300) but my pc does not see any fastboot devices so I am stuck. I am currently on Pacefied rom.

Can I just push the CN rom files to sd and (same method as installing pacefied) and start the istallation from there?

PACEfied AmazFit rel 15 (1.2.19) released

Enjoy! :cowboy:
[Amazfit] MyriaBoa:
The files rel 14 to 15 are checked and passed on my computer but the update on the watch aborts with an error :confused::eek:

EDIT: Full install was possible, strange though
[Amazfit] eremeya:
Is my understanding correct in that any watch manufactured before March of this year should not have the 1.2.13 update on it so long as it is still sealed in the original packaging?
[Amazfit] doongoo:
Did (does) the full install reset on the watch all the stuff - I mean watchfacez - or do they remain after installing?
[Amazfit] alexinc:
they are remaining.

[Amazfit] peanek:
Good afternoon !

I am on 1.2.18 dev rel 14 - ealier I've had 1.3.0n (CH ?) and installed Amazfit Watch app from GooglePlay.

Right now - although Amazfit is synced with smartphone, and all data all "Synced" I cannot find my workouts on Strava ( I already logged into strava)

Is there something I do wrong ?
[Amazfit] ichanz:
can we have indonesia language please, or maybe i can help to translate
[Amazfit] eremeya:
So to update from rel 14 to rel 15 the process is the same as the initial install of PACEfied but without rooting?
[Amazfit] rhtizzy:
I actually did this multiple times using both methods, the crucial thing is that the bootloader & the firmware match. So treat those as a couple as they come in the update packages. If you're having issues with fastboot, try a different port or cable on your PC. I had both issues myself as well
[Amazfit] ATP4:
Yes.
[Amazfit] eremeya:
Thanks!
[Amazfit] peanek:
updated from 1.2.18 to 1.2.19 and Strava is not syncing though I have connected it to my Strava account.

Version on Amazfit Watch is US from Google Play.

Does anyone has the same problem ?

Sorry, it is working, but only with the GPS enabled workouts.... too bad :(

[Amazfit] Hilariouspt:
Please enlighten me.

I'm about to receive an Amazfit to use with ios, and would like to use the PACEfied Rom because of it's many advantages, like GPX format trajectory import.

1) What do I need to do? Should I do the PERMANENT INSTALL procedure, using "Rel 15: Full install Version 1.2.19"?

2) What if I upgrade out of the box to the most recent version OTA, after that will I be able to do the PERMANENT INSTALL procedure?

Thank you for your help and hard work!
[Amazfit] MyriaBoa:
First of all, do NOT upgrade it via OTA. Then follow the instructions in the first post.
[Amazfit] Hilariouspt:
Thank you!

EDIT: I've seen on this thread some people with locked bootloader issue. How does that happen? Is there the possibility I receive a locked bootloader unit?
[Amazfit] gabyonyx:
[ROM] PACEfied AmazFit | Huami AmazFit / Xiaomi AmazFit PACE | rel 15 | 1.2.19 dev

The newest official firmware comes with locked bootloader. Also, if you update via ota, the bootloader gets locked. At the moment it's not possible to unlock the bootloader. This means that you're stuck with official firmware and you can't flash pacefied or any other ROM.
[Amazfit] Hilariouspt:
There's the option to buy "Chinese Version" or "English Version". Do both versions come with locked bootloader?

Thank you in advance.
[Amazfit] gabyonyx:
It depends when them were manufactured. Can't say exactly. For sure the older watches come with unlock bootloader. For example, I bought one this March, the Chinese version, and came with unlock bootloader.
[Amazfit] Hilariouspt:
Thank you so much for your answers.

One last question, please. Which versions have locked bootloader and which don't?
[Amazfit] rhtizzy:
It's trying to unpack the archive without root access
[Amazfit] gabyonyx:
Firmware starting with 1.2.13 (for Chinese version) and 1.3.2b (for US version) has locked bootloader.
[Amazfit] eremeya:
All watches manufactured after March of this year will probably have a locked bootloader. There should be a sticker on the back of the box (at least for the Chinese version) that will give the month and year of manufacture. I just bought a Chinese version from a Xiaomi store that was manufactured in Nov. Of last year so there are still some of the watches with the older firmware available for sale.
[Amazfit] dvdavide:
you probably need to "adb root" before giving the start_update command. This will only work if you haven't updated via OTA to a version that locks the bootloader.
[Amazfit] peanek:
Like rhtizzy and dvdavide wrote.

But you need also to use script in shell with # (root instead of $)

adb root

adb shell

cd /sdcard/

sh start_update.sh

according to instruction from first post of Neuer_User : https://gitlab.com/Neuer_User/PACEfied_AmazFit/wikis/permanent-install

---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

Hi darling, isn't that because arabic is written from right to left? Perhaps the translated strings have for that reason been entered in reverse and now the firmware has been corrected to present arabic in reverse?

And who is wrong? In oficial races my watch is corret with the oficial mesures.

In training with 3 diferent watches, I witnessed 3 diferent mesures.

So? ... who is the right one?

Suunto, TomTom or Garmin?
[Amazfit] berimbadas:
Well I made tests with 3 garmins and one suunto and the 4 gives the same distance, Amazfit always show less distance and the instant pace is very instable.
[Amazfit] giapin:
Conspiracy theory: Runners buy the device that reports the longest distance on their track, and as a result the fastest pace. Therefore, marketing departments make sure the distance algorithm exaggerates by a few percent. Kidding aside, you should test your watch on a measured track, not by comparing to other watches .;)
[Amazfit] berimbadas:
The test I spoke about was in a certified race, of course it was not on a track but even when we compare on strava with runners that sync with other watches the discrepancy is like 10 or 20 meters not 300meters.

I installed 1.2.19 and I have to report a big regression: the font used in the "locked screen" message preview now does not have any japanese/chinese characters. Messages preview show up empty. The font has changed since the older versions (noticeable in english) but this one is completely useless. The one with the unlocked screen works fine though. Is there any way to fix?
[Amazfit] lucas_max:
Guys please dont look at the result on Strava, just for reference. Example: you ran 5K in 25min and walked for 70m (0.07K) in 2min before stopping and saving it. Strava will show that you ran 5K in 27min.

Trick: you can export gpx file from strava and import to other service (I imported to Garmin and it shows exactly 5.07K)
[Amazfit] eremeya:
I'm on 1.2.19 and when I get texts in Chinese the preview shows up fine
[Amazfit] articnet:
Sorry, my bad. By "Chinese" I meant Japanese Kanji. combined with hiragana and katakana. None of them shows up in the "locked screen preview" (the non scrollable one). As soon as I unlock and I get to the scrollable one it works and shows everything.

The last one I had before was 1.2.17 then i updated to 1.2.18 and 1.2.19 (without using the 1.2.18 but for the sake of incremental updates). In 1.2.17 was working fine, then the font changed.
[Amazfit] 1immortal:
the fallback font have changed, it might be that it lacks some languages. I will look for another alternative.

Hello all. this surely is a very informative forum!!

If possible can someone assist me? on different websites it is advertised that this device can carry you up to 5 days on a single charge.

Quoted from Amazon " Pace is a GPS-enabled running watch with up to 11 days of battery life for basic use (up to 5 days for regular use and 35 hours with continuous heart-rate and GPS tracking) ."

I'm not sure how to change the modes and mine says "Battery life in Sport Mode" and currently i'm getting 35 hours (approx) with continuous heart rate NOT activated. Also i'm not certain if the gps is on as well. How can i tell?

Leon
[Amazfit] Jas0n88:
thanks, Mi sports BT looks promising...

before you replied this, I have tried upload photo with no success, didnt know that I have to long press on the main screen. thanks for the tip, will try this.
[Amazfit] rihokirss:
OK, now I found it, you need to have chinese app not the one from Play Store.

---------- Post added at 02:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------

I had the same flashing route, today I updated it even to 1.2.6a. Units still in miles. I also removed the app from play store and replaced with chinese version 1.2.0. There you can select under the profile page between much more units but still no influence to the watch.

Maybe I shall hard reset but then probably I will lose all my activitie logs?

UPDATE: Now I unpaired and paired again. During the process watch made hard reset. After pairing and "setprop persist.sys.language en" I didnt restore user data, but fortunatlly now all watch faces show km, instead of miles :) Will test also if it counts km instead of miles.

Also I set country to my country (EE - Estonia) with command "setprop persist.sys.country EE". Not sure if it has any influence to units.
[Amazfit] Kaudii:
I confirm with me exactly the same after re-pairing without restoring data Show in the distance in km instead of miles
[Amazfit] f@bien:
With chinese firmware so ? But with PACEfied version, we can't unpaire without reboot the watch. So with 1.3.0 firmware, I think that the watch will stay with miles.
[Amazfit] Kaudii:
1.3.0n version is still in miles, on PACEfied AmazFit after re-pairing without restoring data in km
[Amazfit] f@bien:
I'll try.
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
I got it yesterday night

This works (on my devices) only if you boot into 1.2.6a. After booting PACEfied 1.2.5a. the upload option is not shown but on the watch i can select images that i have uploaded before.
[Amazfit] f@bien:
Doesn't work for me, still miles. One question : When I boot on PACEfied version, I'm still 1.3.0 in "About". You too ?
[Amazfit] Kaudii:
You do not have PACEfied version, I have to upload PACEfied had to return to Cn 0.9.50 update it to 1.2.3 to upgrade to version 1.2.5a, and only to have uploaded PACEfied ROM version, and after these operations have km instead of miles

Wysłane z mojego MI 5 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Amazfit] f@bien:
Ok, I understand why you have miles and it's normal. You have chinese firmware, and me US firmware.
[Amazfit] Kaudii:
exactly as I had this software, what do you also had in miles

Wysłane z mojego MI 5 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
Right it shows miles after the value. have to test if the value is in km or miles. My ROM version is shown as "mb"

Okay, i rebooted and had miles displayed in the original version, too.

And the ROM info showed 1.2.5a but i did update to 1.2.6a already.

Now updated to 1.2.6a a second time and it's still miles damn.
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
After resetting to Chinese with “setprop persist.sys.language zh” the watch shows distances in Kilometers (公里) instead of miles (英里).

But my settings menu is still in english.

did “setprop persist.sys.language cn” and rebooted PACEfied now i get launcher has stopped.
[Amazfit] Beleriand:
I reset the watch, now i can not pair it anymore.

US-PACE app refuses to connect and the Chinese one scans the QR-Code on the watch but then tries to connect until timeout. Set the phone to English without success.

Any ideas?
[Amazfit] rihokirss:
Now I discovered that chinese phone app 1.2 indeed syncs with stravia :) actually it syncs with both mifit and stravia simultaneously. After resetting watch, without restoring data I installed the mifit. It had also my all previous activities there available, even they vere not in watch any more.

Probably syncing just writes some data to phones sdcard or somewhere and both Stravia and MiFit just scan the folder with some kind of interval.

That also explains why it takes stravia that long (2-5mins) after syncing to display the information.

Bluetooth issue ? Try to pair very close to the phone.
[Amazfit] Zeljko1234:
Info you've found is actually very informative and mostly correct. From my experience, without continuous hrm, batter can last almost a week. 11 days if you are not wearing at all. I have another one for a friend, left in drawer and indeed battery last very long.

With continuous hrm, battery last about 4-5 days.

Never use GPS tracking for 35 hours but used it for about 7 and battery dropped from 100 to 80%. Multiplying with 5 and yes, 35h of hrm/gps tracking seems reachable.

GPS is on only during outside sport activities.
[Amazfit] lee son khorie:
Thanks Zeljko1234.

Can you instruct me on how to switch modes?

I'd like to get the most battery life possible while still connected to my phone for push notifications and as well as caller Id. also i'd like to know how to activate and deactivate Gps.
[Amazfit] Zeljko1234:
I told you, gps is active only when outside activity is started. Swipe all the way to the left and you'll see...
[Amazfit] lee son khorie:
I missed that.

Okay but what about the mode? As mine says "Battery life in Sport Mode" 20 hour / 117 mi 58% 12 hours since charge. I have it on but i'm not using it so as to have the screen back-light on regularly also the continuous heart rate tracker is off. Is this power consumption normal?
[Amazfit] Zeljko1234:
Watch is mainly designed for sport activities (even right now is offering only few) and the biggest sales point is the longest battery life with GPS tracking. What you see is just Huami way to show you how long you can use the watch in sport mode (GPS and HRM on). Second infor is self explaining, time since the last charge. No info how long you can use the watch in non-sport mode.

[Amazfit] lucas_max:
Sorry but maybe you (and many others) have this mistake, the watch says "Battery life in Sport Mode", It means the estimated time if you use the watch in activity (run or bike), gps and hr continously, from that point.

So if you use as the normal watch (step, time, listen to music), dont care about that information.

About the battery life, I got 5 days for 1h activity per day.
[Amazfit] lee son khorie:
I really appreciate this response. I'm not sure though that this corresponds with my tracker because I uploaded audio and used it today to listen which drastically reduced the battery life. This is without constant hr or GPS activity. Currently I'm at 17% with 19 hours since last charge. Gonna take it all the way out and document after a full charge. About to do some indoor biking and my use the continuous hr to deplete the remaining %s. Will post my results. Thanks again Mr.Max
