I just know that the screen will turn off in water. The FAQ only says that in swimming mode one has to set rows manually. I do not think HR, GPS or even strokes will work in water. Anyway is there a general sports program for doing workouts? The training features is really a thing what is making me interessted in this watch. Firstbeats training load, recovery time advisor and so on, one can only find in really expensive Garmin watches or similar in the Polar M430. The cons is the size. I guess it is 50mm in diameter which is huge. Mostly too huge for 24/7. Also I don't know if I would trust Chinese in sports. They never do sports. Trust me I lived there.

All the so called reviews are just made by some silly guys never really used the watch. Doing it just for the kickback of some chinese store. Not trustworthy.
[Amazfit] Justinbridou:
Hi!

As far as I have seen, the screen does not turn off in water.

There are some videos showing the watch in water (not a pool, just some kind of large glass, not sure of english word for that).

Only the touchscreen is disabled and it's not surprising. You can use the buttons instead of touchscreen to navigate while in water. I guess that's why there are buttons.

Regarding the FAQ, it says much more than set the row manually, copy paste:

85. Swimming function

Watch support swimming pool and open water swimming two modes.

Swim terminology

Lane Length: The length of your swimming pool. The watch will calculate the swimming data based on the lane length you set.

Set the corresponding lane length for each pool change so that the watch can accurately evaluate your swimming data.

Trip: Swim in swimming pool swimming pool length of a lane.

Paddling: wearing a watch for a complete paddling action.

Paddling rate: the number of paddles per minute.

DPS: Complete a full stroke of the water.

SWOLF: SWOLF is an important indicator of swimming scores, which is equivalent to your comprehensive evaluation of swimming speed. SWOLF for pool swimming mode = single trip (in seconds) + number of single trips. SWOLF in open water swimming mode is calculated as 100 meters. The smaller the number, the better the efficiency of swimming.

86. Swimming recognition

The watch will recognize the swimmer’s posture in swimming mode.

Freestyle swimming

breaststroke

Backstroke

Butterfly stroke

mixing

87. Touch screen in swimming

To prevent misunderstanding and water interference with the touch screen, the watch will be closed after the start of the touch screen touch function. At this point through the watch button motion control, after the end of the watch will restart the touch screen function.

Regarding HR and GPS in water, no idea....

-as far as I know, GPS is not good underwater and in a pool, it's much more accurate to count lenghts than GPS.

-HR: I heard some works in water (with reduced accuracy), no idea for the amazfit 2, that's why I wait so much for a swimming pool review :).

Regarding the so called review... well I agree, and they are not really "review", only unboxing and show a couple of stuff (very very little)...there are maybe 100 videos like this, all showing the same. Those guys drive me mad: This watch has a very new feature compare to amazfit pace: this 50m resist + swimming mode... and they do videos with 20sec reviewing...the box, nothing on sports modes :eek:
[Amazfit] SteffenBerlin:
Thank you for the information. I meant touch turning off in water, which is actually a good thing.
[Amazfit] Nkosa:
The Chinese version 2.0.8 in the pool is very bad.

English version 2.0.7.5 from Nicola Sagliano works in the pool super! Correctly considers the number of swimming pools that I swam, time, calories, swimming style and other parameters. In the water, only the buttons work. The screen works in this mode constantly.

GPS in the indoor pool does not work. For open water there is a separate regime. His name was

Swimming

Hi, I took my Stratos at pool swimming 8 times and result is> I am not very satisfied with watches.

Swim.

1. Firmware 2.0.8.0 tries to round up meters and pools. That is logical because It is a way you usually swim at pool.

2. Firmware 2.0.7.5 does not round up pools and meters at pool mode.. It does. The last pool is added when saving or resuming session.

3. Both firmwares have problem with first pool (graph of pace and trash starts around zero (= nonsense) and complicates graph reading because Y axis is then not very detailed at the point of interest)

4. Firmware 2.0.8.0 can correctly count last pool. With 2.0.7.5 you must start at least one more pool to count the last one. It does. The last pool is added when saving or resuming session.

5. The measuring one time crashed when saving data with notice that sport application crashed. The session was not recovered and all measured data was lost (very bad coding of Xiaomi team).

6. Watches does not measure kicked pools. (Pools swim without hands). That is normal.

7. Due to inaccuracy of measured pool counts and problematic first pool are counted trash and pace values only informational.

8. It is unable to edit measured data so you cannot add kicked pools or correct bad readings.

At pool mode does not work GPS and heart rate sensor. That is normal.

Run (Firmware 2.0.7.5).

1. Very inaccurate GPS readings when run around 8 stories buildings.

2. Due to point 1 the measured distance differs from measured at Google maps about 10 % (3.1 km instead 3.4 km).

3. Due to point 3 all calculated values dependent on distance are nonsenses (speed, kCals, strides, TE, VO2max, EPOC).

Notices.:

Watches CPU is really weak and that causes problems with application starts (e.g. swimming) or lags when scrolling or screen listing. It is not so bad as described.

Coding of sports applications is really bad. When application crashes all data are gone. Sports application does not make recovery saves (at least swimming).

Watches e.g. do not sum counted steps after factory reset etc. Watches saves only higher value from measured before or after factory reset.

There is a bad sync between watches and phone app. Watches shows different sum mileage from phone app after crash of sport app at watches.

You cannot add or correct measured data, that leads to e.g. watches counts only 26 50m pools and do not calculates 14 kicked pools and that results in very low training load.

Tom
[Amazfit] SteffenBerlin:
Thank you for sharing your experiences!

8 story high buildings are always a big problem without GLONASS. I guess Stratos doesn't have GLONASS.

Hopefully the crashes will be fixed on final firmware.

I agree it is a must that workouts can be edited in the companion app and then synced back to the watch. Cannot be so difficult to implement.
[Amazfit] 1myxomatosis1:
Polar V800 does not have glonass and records perfect track no matter of high buildings, deep forest or mountains.
[Amazfit] Justinbridou:
Hi! and Tom: many thanks for this very detailed feedback !! :good::good::good::good::good:

I have a few comments/questions:

I'm not sure to catch the meaning of 1st pool: do you mean 1st pool lenght or 1 swimming session ?

I have read a few weeks ago a review of several watch for swimming (not the amazfit 2).

It was suggested that pool lenght counting is based on 2 things to be catched by sensors:

- "shock" detection when hitting the wall.

- "pushing" when going back to other direction.

So for accurate count of last lenght, it was recommanded to make sure to "hit" the wall correctly with the arm that has the watch. and also to start a "last push" back on the wall, like for starting a new lenght (and then you can stop).

Not very natural but....

It was also a good idea to make sure to hit the wall with the hand with watch and make a good push at every lenghts to improve reliable counting.

I think I lack some english here: what is a kicked pool ?

I understood 1st and last pool lenght may be miscounted, but it is ok for the others in between ?

because, let's say if I do 40 lenghts, I may not be a very big inaccuracy if only 1 or 2 are missing ?

Some HR sensor does work (more or less accurate)...so I'm not sure it's "normal" even if it's also common that many HR sensors does not work in water.
[Amazfit] michal84:
I have a stratos, I have been swimming 2 times with bass and the length counts very well, you do not have to bounce the hand on which the watch is. The screen is always on and locked, buttons are working.
[Amazfit] dolezelt:
Hi.

1. Look at the attached picture. Thrash speed starts with zero and every time you pause session trash speed drops to 0. This is problem for calculated average trash speed because is lower than real average one. At the pace graph is a problem with one speed drop (I paused session about 2 sec after finishing pool). This made a great speed drop and Y axis is than not very detailed at the point of interest. Y axis should be from 2 mins to 1 min 14 sec. That speed drop should be cut out. I think that first sec of swimming should be cut out.

2. Pool counting. I made some test and I must say that watches count pools correctly. The last pool is added when session is saved or immediately after session resume on 2.0.7.5 firmware.

Example: After finishing 20th pool and pausing session watches shows only 19 pools. When session is saved (ended) or resumed pool counts is corrected to 20.

3. Kicked pool.... I meant pool that was swimmed without hands only with kicking legs.

4. -

5. I think that is normal that HR optical sensor does not work at pool. I think that Garmin Fenix also does not measure HR when swimming.
[Amazfit] Justinbridou:
Hi, thanks again for added information! :good:

3- ahhh I see :). Sorry I can more or less speak general English but don't have the "technical" words around swimming.

I also just noticed it's "thrash" and not "trash" :o which was confusing :eek:

5- I have seen on a suunto page "ACCURACY OF WRIST-BASED HEART RATE MEASUREMENT" :they write " The optical sensor may not provide accurate heart rate readings for swimming activities."

So to me they mean it may work but not accurate..

Also a couple of sources told me that the apple watch can do it.

So I guess it depends on watch....

I also read some watch just disable it while swimming (to avoid showing inconsistent data)

How do you do gym training? I cannot find any sports profile for it.
[Amazfit] Justinbridou:
Hi,

Check the faq on amazfitcentral.com, it's a mine of information!

Sports mode are jogging, running, walking, cross country running, indoor running, outdoor riding, indoor riding, elliptical machines, mountaineering, swimming in the swimming pool, open water swimming, triathlon.

I cannot post links for the moment (noob on xda), but you can Google it.
[Amazfit] SteffenBerlin:
I already checked this out. But still there is no cardio, gym training or yoga profile. I do not need rep counting nor weight plans. Just time and pulse. I guess elliptical is counting steps. I mean ppl who are doing running, cycling or swimming are doing gym, training as well as part or their training plan. It must be possible to track this exercises.
[Amazfit] tumcruise:
Anyone who test diving into the pool or sea ,not over 10 M.

I want to know it that can measure the distance or not.

Elliptical and indoor cycling do not count steps, only time, heart rate and calories (based on heart rate). For gym, you can use any of these.

Hi there!

I have a question, English is not my mother language and I 'm not sure of exact meaning of what the watch reports.

Does anybody could explain me the meaning of : pace, stroke, DPS and trips (as measured by the watch).

By the way, just received it, I may have a chance to swim with it next Friday.

[HTC One A9] Blandroid:
I'll try to be as succinct as I can:

1. Bought phone from eBay UK which claimed to be the International version.

2. Got prompted on phone to update OTA to Android 7.0 a few months later.

3. Attempts to install update failed - error message as below:

4. Contacted HTC UK (as phone was still under warranty at the time) for help and they said to return the phone to them to sort it.

5. HTC then emailed me back to say it couldn't be returned for servicing as IMEI shows phone is actually an AT&T device.

6. They advised that I should flash the official AT&T RUU for Android 6.0 then update from there, and I should contact Support at HTC USA for assistance.

7. I went to the website, found and downloaded the correct RUU but then it occurred to me that whatever the modifications are that were made to my phone, they do allow me to use any sim in the UK. Flashing the official AT&T RUU might render my phone incapable of making and receiving calls in this country.

8. I emailed HTC USA for advice about what to do but they're not replying so IDK what to do :(

Can anyone help please?

Will flashing the official AT&T RUU render my phone pretty useless in the UK?

Thanks! :)
[HTC One A9] Blandroid:
Is there not a single person here who can answer my question please?
[HTC One A9] alray:
"Variant system version" is the error you'll get when trying to update a phone that was improperly converted from a carrier version to another.

What the previous owner probably did is replacing the software on the phone without changing the phone CID and MID values to match the new software version.

The CID is a number tied to your region/phone operator (i.e at&t CID is CWS__001, International CID is HTC__001)

The MID is the number identifying your hardware (different variant of the A9 will have different MID) For example the gsm variant is 2PQ912000 and the Sprint cmda variant is 2PQ930000.

When updating the software, the phone will check if the downloaded update version match the CID and MID expected for that version and if not, it will give you this error.

So you either need to write the correct CID and MID in your phone (best option imo) or flash back the original at&t software.

Btw the at&t variant never got the update to lollipop so it's a little funny that htc tech support said to " flash the official AT&T RUU for Android 6.0 then update from there" cause there is no update at all :laugh:

The correct CID and MID for a phone running software x.xx.401.x is HTC__001 and 2PQ910000.

What is your current version-main, cid and mid? Use these commands:

fastboot getvar version-main
fastboot getvar cid
fastboot getvar mid

is you rphone s-off?

If you want to protection , I strongly recommend that case.

Been using a SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle since day one....Has withstood many drops from as high as my lifted Jeep onto the roadway. Love this case, still retains much of the great look of the 6P as well, until I slapped a big piece of metal on the back for my magnet mount in the car. I have also used the same iCarez screen protector since day one, no lifting, no cracking, nothing just a beautiful tempered glass screen protector that has withstood the test of time. FULL DISCLAIMER, I love my devices and I take great care of them. I avoid damage, immersion, destruction for the most part but we aren't perfect and accidents happen. That being said, if you are someone that beats the crap out of everything you use, you may want something stronger.

Hi guys!

Im going to buy xiaomi mi6 soon, so i want you to share with me your opinions about custom roms you used. Could you tell me what rom is the least bugged and gives me the most comfortable work with this device? Maybe the global stable is? Generally im looking for the best rom, and them futures.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
If you are keeping bootloader locked then go for global beta most likely.

If you will unlock then the stable ROMs are based on 7.1.2.

AOSPA has a good reputation but LineageOS 14 is about to go official for Sagit.

The 8.1 ROMs are stable enough for most uses and so far I had no issues. Just waiting for Oreo kernel sources from Xiaomi for more stability.

There is no overall best ROM. Just the best for you.

Most people here don't like MIUI though.

Its alright but for anyone who's used to AOSP style ROMs they will not feel at home using it.

Its like an iOS splice of Android leaning more heavily to Android.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] juankar7:
MIUI gives the best experience for me, most of time I flash weekly ROM's from Xiaomi.eu. They have stable too, if you don't want to flash every week and you don't mind trying new features. Xiaomi.eu team do a great job and sometimes fix some issues with official ROM's.

You have more MIUI based ROM's like Globe Rom, you can customize before downloading and Epic Rom I'm using this week.

If you like AOSP 'flavour' you can try Resurrection Remix (RR) very customizable via settings, and the classic Lineage OS (the old Cyanogen Mod).

Give a try some of them an tell us you experience ;)

MIUI Global Stable - Stock ROM back in May, pretty okay, except battery drain was pretty bad. About 80-100mA drain during standby

Xiaomi.eu - the first non-official ROM I use, but still a MIUI-based. At least they give consistent weekly update and improvement. Battery drain problem was fixed here. But alas, I still hate MIUI's notification handling. The moment AOSP-based ROM pop, I made a switch, which is

LineageOS 14 by Xiaobai - first AOSP based ROM for Mi6. It was pretty good. I used LOS14 on my LG G2 back then, so it was pretty much as good as it can get

Lineage 15.0 by NisseCool/UnknownDev420 - Probably one of the first Oreo/non-MIUI ROM available here. Still lots of bugs, but usable. But phone gets really hot (up to 47c during load). Project is getting less update since December. Then finally I made a jump to

crDroid (Android 8.1) by Verevka - It has all the bugs in LOS15.0 fixed and have the goodness of MIUI camera. The downside right now is that QC3.0 isn't working. You're capped at 1500mA charging instead of 3000mA, which is pretty okay considering it'll get fixed and the ROM is still getting updated regularly.
