[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
thanks a lot for your help.

just one more question...are these the stock rings off the verizon xv6800 that come with ROM 2.09? there seems to be one particular ring i've always had, both with my xv6700, and again with my xv6800 (before flashing) that's not there...it's weird.

anyway, thanks again.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
I got them from the Extended ROM that is in the 2.09 ROM.

Can you tell me which ringer you are looking for? I might be able to find it and get it for you.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
I'm not sure what they're called on the xv6800 cuz I flashed it right away and can't remember. On the xv6700, they are called telephone ring 2, and telephone ring 3.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
I will look tomorrow.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
Here are some more. I think the 2 you want are in here.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] HayireII:
I did a full upgrade on my phone this weekend (very easy thanks to all of the info on these forums) but just realized that some of the neat ringers that came with the phone are gone. I looked through these zips but didn't see them all. I had Halloween (Michael Myers theme music) and Flight of the Bumblebee and some other cool ones. Anyone have any thoughts on a source to find them again? Thanks.

Hi All,

Since yesterday I own Huami Amazfit Watch - Chinese version.

I decided to share my first impression.

Apart of the fact the watch looks very nice in this message I will talk mainly about the problems I have faced.

I hope some of those are just related with my limited knowledge not due to watch limitations:

Software I am using:

Amazfit Watch Firmware - 1.2.5a (with setprop persist.sys.language en applied)

Amazfit_china Watch 1.2.0

Mifit_china 2.2.10

Amazfit_china (Midong ) - 1.4.6.0141 - i am not really using this yet

Initially I had some syncing issue but now I can sync my training sessions to Mifit

Issues:

1. I have done one "trail running session" and this can not be synced to Mifit. Running sessions are synced OK.

2. Major issue. The GPS track is way inaccurate (around 50-100m around the exact track).

In addition the GPS need really clean view of the sky to sync.

If no way GPS accuracy be improved I am afraid this will render the watch not useful to me.

3. The hart rate sensor was giving me occasionally some out-layer points like rate 240.

Apart of this it seems to work fine. I got steady heart rate about 190 on an ascent which I think is too high but as I don't have other reference I will assume it is accurate for now. The hart rate plot seems to match the route difficulty sections.

4. In Mifit the Pace plot needs improvement. I have started the session and I started running 1 minute later. It put a very slow initial pace on this plot (30min/km) and this ruined the dynamic range of whole plot and render it to useless. I guess some issue with auto pause/start?

5. Altitude plot in Mifit is empty. I guess this information could be taken from GPS or even from GPS+google map but they don't do it.

6. Was not able to pair my Bluetooth head set to the watch. Anyone successful on this?

7. Watch tried downloading some FM songs from the WiFi. Speed to Chinese server was very small.

If I connect the watch to my PC using USB I see "Amazfit Sports Watch" drive but I can not copy anything there (Windows 10 on the PC). How it is supposed to put music on the watch?

OK let me stop with the issues list for now :)

In general the watch seems to be built nice and solid and if above are fixed or I find a solution I think this will become a very useful watch. :)

Thanks

[Other SmartWatches] 5tormChild:
Nice. ;)

I have the USA version, and the GPS is at least as accurate, as my Polar M400's: I have tested with both watches on my wrists, and the Amazfit was dead on accurate.

Maybe the A1612 has different GPS firmware than the Chinese A1602 - I don't think the hardware is different, but there were experiences in the past with Chinese watches in Europe, and the GPS reception was kinda weak or it was inaccurate. Xiaomi wants you to buy the same watch with a different firmware, because they want to use the Chinese people as "guinea pigs", that's why there are weekly updates - they could mess up things completely, and they think the Chinese people are more forgiving.

I almost never run, but I walk a lot (like 70 km/week), and the logged heartrates and altitudes seem to be legit, never had gaps or abnormal values - maybe I'm just lucky. If you're having abnormal heartrate readings, you should tighten the strap, up to the point of almost uncomfortable.

I walk a lot in the town, between buildings, under arcades, and the GPS reception is always good, sometimes even in buildings.

As I have the USA version, the only available option for me is the Amazfit Watch app, I don't know about Mifit, but I bet it's a lot better. I can upload my training sessions to Strava, and that's sufficient for me. (And Strava can relay the sessions to Google Fit.)

Just tried to connect my JBL GO, it connected within seconds, and the connection was uninterrupted.

Maybe you have a faulty watch, but so far so good here - I like my Amazfit Pace a lot more than I liked my Polar M400, and this watch has a lot of potential with future updates.
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi 5tormChild,

Good to know that the hardware of the watch in general is OK.

It actually should as I've read it is based on Sony CXD5600GF which is a new generation GPS SoC.

By dead on accurate you mean your track was not deviating more than 10m from the actual track, correct?

While you were tracking did you have a smart phone with you? Was it paired with the Watch?

What I want to assess is the GPS accuracy without any assistance from a smart phone as usually you don't bring your phone while running.

Anyone in Europe with the latest Chinese firmware to comment about the GPS accuracy of Amazfit Watch?

If the US firmware is better I think I can easily switch based on the work done in this forum.

Thanks.
[Other SmartWatches] 5tormChild:
Hello,

by "dead on accurate" I mean the route is almost perfectly matches the road on the map, and the max deviation I experienced was like 5 meters, and the total distance seems legit all the time - and I walked over 130 kilometers since I own this watch.

I don't need the notifications feature, so the bluetooth is always disabled on my phone, which means they are disconnected, but I sync the A-GPS data each day. Of course my watch is paired with my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy Note 4 - N910C), that was the first step. So my phone is always with me, but the bluetooth is always off.

I have the original 1.3.0n firmware in the original Amazfit Pace USA version, and although it lacks metric support, which is kind of annoying, but you can calculate the distance by multiplying the miles by 1.6 to get the value in kilometers, so that's not that difficult. I had one time, when 7% charge was depleted during a night's sleep, but that was after like 10 days of constant usage - maybe it's worth to restart the watch after each week.

Maybe I'm just lucky, but I'm very happy with this watch - I have a Polar M400, and it's easier to use because of the physical buttons, but the Amazfit has a better-to-look-at display, a superior battery life.

I hope in a few days we'll get a massive firmware update to keep the USA FW up to date with the Chinese FW, plus proper metric support, which is selectable, not stone carved, and I hope the new FW won't deplete the battery faster - it's very important for me. (A 10 km walk means 7% on Amazfit Pace, and over 25-30% on the Polar M400.)

Have a nice day!

Regards,

StormChild

I used the chinese firmware of the watch until yesterday and I can confirm that it is not accurate and stable at all. It has a lot GPS-signal hickups while running in Germany. The Strava export of sessions is even worse, where the service even thinks I am running through water and some parts of the runs are completely missing. I have now installed the us -version of the firmware, just to compare the GPS-signal between those firmwares. I also have the Polar M400, which has no GPS-signal problems at all for the same route.

Chinese firmware 1.2.5f

Amazfit Watch 1.1.7.1 from Playstore
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi flintzen_123,

Thanks for sharing your experience.

I did a short run using the latest Chinese 1.2.6a firmware.

It happens that today I have broken my phone so I can not export the data but looking at the plot on the watch itself I think that 1.2.6a has much better GPS accuracy compared to 1.2.5a.

I have run only 1.6km so the trace on the watch even small is still pretty representative.

Tomorrow I will run in the open area about 10km so I will have more data which eventually

I will manage to export Tuesday when I hopefully repair my phone.

In this regards I am very interested to hear your results with the US version.

As the GPS is actually based on Sony chip which is doing some sensor fusion (GPS, accelerometer, giro .. etc ) I think our Chinese friends (or Sony) has messed up with the drivers, and the hardware is actually capable.

I hope :)

Regards

Dimitar
[Other SmartWatches] flintzen_123:
I will run in a couple of minutes and can share my results. On the watch itself the run seems ok, but when you look closely in the Strava, you see that a lot of sections are missing and Strava just not interpolates it while in my opinion the watch itself does.

Update: After the run I can say the american version of the firmware is way better for gps-tracking then the chinese version until 1.2.5. I have to check the new one.
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi flintzen_123,

Good to know, that!

Yes in 1.2.5 GPS is buggy. Try 1.2.6a or better latest 1.2.6b.

I did 10km run (with 1.2.6a) in the mountain today but looking on the watch it is not easy to say something.

The total distance the watch showed is close to what my friends watch showed so it is a good sign.

I hope in two days I will manage to export this session and say more.

Cheers

[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
I think the GPS is quite OK it is not perfect like my old Garmin GPSmap 60csx but it is way better than my Huawei P9 lite. Dont forget we are very limited in antenna size and availble power. My main issue is that it takes quite long to get a fix, even after synching the Almanac via the Amazfit app

I have a BT-receiver that worked with the watch but i had some interruptions. The receiver didn't work to well before either. Waiting for my BT headphones.

I connected the watch to Ubuntu 16.04 and have seen the following issue:

The watch identifies to the OS as a camera so my photo application (Shotwell) lists it for importing pictures which makes no sense as the watch can't take any pictures.

My music application (Rhythmbox) does not list the watch so i can not sync my music to it. Even putting an empty file named ".is_audio_player" which marks the drive as a music device for Linux shows no success. But that's quite sure because of the photo mode.

But the watch is automatically mounted as a drive so i can simply copy and paste music to it. (sync with Rhythmbox would be more elegant though)

Excellent hardware but the software, all above the sync and data export has to get a lot more attention from Xiaomi.

Hi flintzen_123,

Which firmware version is this?

If you have to say what is the average deviation from your actual route in meters? Apart of the fact it lost the satellites at one point.

Beleriand, I have a USB port on my laptop which can deliver more current.

Due to some reason the watch doesn't enumerate as storage there but if I use another USB port all is fine and I can copy songs into the watch.

Best regards

[Other SmartWatches] flintzen_123:
I think it was 1.2.4f. I had one run where the difference was almost 10% (over 2 km missing). The Strava output shows it accordingly.
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
Great. ;) The strange behavoiur to connect the watch as a camera should be changed by xiaomi anyway.

Okay, i started with 1.2.5a and it looked ok. Your tracklog is unusable.
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi Gents,

You make me confused ;)

As per my knowledge the GPS in the following versions is:

US firmware - kind of OK, based on what other people reported

1.2.4x - Not OK, based on what other people reported

1.2.5a - Not OK, at least for me (~ 100m deviation from the exact track )

1.2.6a - As per my running session this seems much better (at least compared to 1.2.5a).

1.2.6b - As per my running session this seems much better (at least compared to 1.2.5a). Probably on par with 1.2.6a

Would you agree with this summary?

Thanks

Dimitar
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
Well i did not go into detail with the GPS logs but i didn't have massive problems either with mine.
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi Beleriand,

So you say you have done some training/walking with 1.2.5a, you synced the track on a phone overlaying a map and the track looked kind of OK to you (within 10 meters let say) ?

My bad experience with 1.2.5a was in an open area, far from buildings so I think good conditions for GPS. So strange ...

Regards

Dimitar
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
As i can't get a GPX at the moment i opened the Tracks in Mi Fit app and they looked quite good on the Google Map.

Some slightly rounded sharp corners and on closer look one situation where it was a bit off ~ 20m but that was between some buildings in town.

If it had a GPX and could use it on QMapShack i could have a closer look and compare it with existing tracklogs of other devices.

But nothing like 100m off. I had that with a Garmin device several times. :rolleyes:
[Other SmartWatches] flintzen_123:
1.2.5a was my last chinese firmware, GPS tracking was not good for me. Sometimes I was running around a stadium and the watch did not track it. My Polar M400 had no tracking problems at all and this is the entry model of GPS tracking sport watches.
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
It does not depend on the price. It either works or it doesn't. I had a 50€ phone from Doogee that had decent GPS and my 250€ Huawei sucks.
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
Another test with the 1.2.6b firmware. Same results for me as with the 1.2.5a. everything looks good, a few rounded corners and some drifts beneath buildings. Typical for high sensitive receivers that catch up reflections of walls.

The watch measured 7,55 km

When i do a manual measurement in QLandkarte GT the distance is 7,56 km

My Huawei P9lite measured 8,47 km

To me, reception of GPS is good and stable and the filtering is quite good, also.

I think it is equal or better to my Garmin Oregon450. Will take that with me next run for comparison.

So if there is something to complain about it's the GPS of my phone. :mad:
[Other SmartWatches] dpenevdpenev:
Hi Beleriand,

I am following the Chinese Huami forum and lot of people there complaining about the GPS accuracy for the versions before 1.2.6a.

There are some people which confirm that 1.2.6a is much better than the previous versions. This match also my limited observations.

So I assume you have very clean sky or you were just lucky with your 1.2.5a ;)

Best Regards

Dimitar
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
The Watch was updated to 1.2.6 and then used booting into 1.2.5 PACEfied. Maybe the GPS Firmware was already updated.

I am quite sure that is a separate thing. That would explain my luck.
[Other SmartWatches] Neuer_User:
Very well possible, indeed. I think the firmware gets updated during the upgrade process, which calls "installsensorhub.sh" to upgrade the sensorhub firmware (which includes the GPS).
[Other SmartWatches] flintzen_123:
I need to revoke my first impression about the US-firmware, it is as bad as the older chinese versions. Really weird.

[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
Seems like the GPS isn't receiving anything at all. Lost signal or power saving?

Compared the watch with my Garmin Oregon 450 GPS today and it is on an equal level. I would say a bit better.

So compared to a decicated GPS receiver it performs really good. Okay the Oregon isn't the best device. ;)
[Other SmartWatches] Beleriand:
Connected the same receiver today and everything works like a charm.

....Headphones still on their way from China to my letterbox. :cyclops:
[Other SmartWatches] Victordiazbis:
No complains at all with regards to the GPS, but since 1.2.6 the heart rate monitor is very erratic while running. Is it just me, or has anybody else observed this issue?

Runners beware. Amazfit GPS accuracy problem! Not for Runners!

Hi all,

Got the amazfit for running (English Version) and I am much disappointed.

Amazfit lost 150 meters on a 9km run.

Amazfit is in the last version 1.3.1.

Runners beware!

Pace difference is shown bellow:

(strava is from amazfit and runkeeper is for garmin)

So I uploaded both GPX files on http://www.mygpsfiles.com/app/ in order to visualize them and the findings were interesting.

It seems that though Amazfit gets much more points than my old Garmin, those points are often very inaccurate.

Please find bellow some examples.

Orange trace is Garmin.

Blue trace is Amazfit Pace.

Amazfit (in blue) seems really off road.

Here it seems to loose distance. I did run as Garmin says to the roundabout

I must emphasize that its really an open space run with a very good GPS signal reception.

So it seems that its something going wrong with the GPS of the Amazfit.

I am wondering if there is a calibration problem with Europe/Greece.

It all started last October 2016. My 6p is stock, rooted and I have been with Project Fi for over a year now without any issues until last Oct 2016. Out of the blue I loss my cell signal but only with T-mobile but not Sprint, nothing will bring it back until I reboot my 6P I can’t even make or receive a phone call and google Fi customer services was no help.

I updated to 7.1.1 in December’s update and all cleared up. I stop having my cell signal stopped dropping or when it does it would pick up the signal immediately, all seems good to go but, until yesterday. I loss my cell signal but this time it didn’t come back I had to reboot.

I have done some Mods with Google assistant and not much else, so I have no idea what my be causing this, hopefully Feb’s update will help.

Yea its Radio related (duh huh lol). I flashed the newest radio from Jan and same crap. The ONLY radio that works consistent and NEVER loses signal is the 03.61.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v12xke:
Does it change bands (or carriers) when coming back up? I don't use Project Fi (AT&T) but sometimes the phone switches bands when a stronger signal is available. Have you tried the LTE Discovery app? It shows not only the band and signal strength you are connected to, but all neighbor cells and their strength. You can also quickly reset the connection to grab the strongest cell tower. Might give you some additional information. I guess you've already tried the 03.79 radio from N4F26J, rather than 03.78 on N4F26I. You may also see whether or not you can duplicate the problem on a different (non-Fi) SIM.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex__usa2002:
I'm on Metro PCS which uses T-Mobile towers. I've tried everything already, I'm on my second 6p. I RMA'd the first one for this same reason. I've tried a new sim card. The only thing that works is using radio 2.50. Some people are saying radio 3.61 and 3.72 works. I've experienced drops with those radios although not as frequent. I suggest anyone with this issue report it here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=232089

Yup mine does that, while walking around trying to catch pokemon, I'll get No Network. It'll come back after about 15-20 seconds. Happens often in Downtown San Diego. I usually just switch from Tmobile to Sprint when that happens. Though Sprint service is weaker...

When it happens, I notice on the Signal Info app that TMobile is jumping around between LTE, HSPA, HSDPA. 2G Edge, all within a few minutes.
