I've just found that AmazFaces app populates the "My band displays" in Mi Fit app with 3rd party watch faces with preview (just click on "Download" in AmazFaces app and it magically appears in Mi Fit :) ). It's probably even quicker than using Notify & Fitness or Mi band tools.
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lada333:
I have completely abandoned the Mi Fit app (the only thing I'm losing out on, is syncing new watch faces, but I found one I like, not going to change it any time soon), I bought Mi Band Master, for like 3 dollars, it's working flawlessly for me.

I also purchased N&F, but I didn't quite like it as much, and some functionality (that was important to me, at least) seemed to be broken, so I stuck with MBM - they also have a modded mi fit apk which lets MBM authorize the band, so there's no need to have the Mi Fit app installed at all!

I'm really looking forward to what custom utilities we're going to get for this watch :D
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Just wondering - which feature was broken in N&F for you? I tried Mi Band Master as well, but didn't really like it (too simple charts, no activity tracking, overall just not enough details). N&F is able to work as standalone app now too, but I find Mi Fit tolerable and will keep it at least until they keep providing FW updates for Mi Band. All in all, I'm so glad that I did not go with Honor Band 5 (even if I like it's form factor and SpO2 sensor more). I would be stuck with Huawei app and many features wouldn't be working as I don't have EMUI phone.. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lada333:
My main reason for trying out apps other than the official Mi Fit was to have smart alarm functionality - where it wakes you up when you're in light sleep some time before your set alarm. That worked a lot better with MBM for me, also, I set an "emergency" alarm 1 minute after my Band goes off, in case it doesn't vibrate for whatever reason, on my phone, MBM actually rang an alarm, whereas N&F just started spamming notifications, lmao.

Mi Fit's weather provider was interfering with the one I set in N&F, it just kept reverting back.

Charts are indeed more simplistic, and there's no support for processing the workouts YET in MBM, but I just found it overall to stand a bit closer to my heart :D

Also, I couldn't really get N&F to work without having Mi Fit installed, but even knowing now, that it's an option, I still don't think I would switch over to it.
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
My Mi Band 4 arrived today. I was using the MB2 with Mi Band Tools due to the integration with Sleep as Android, and for notifications of several apps and calls.

Now with the MB4, I saw that the Mi Fit app seems to have the same functions (app and call notifications) and start to thinking about uninstall MBT.

My doubt is precisely regarding Sleep as Android since i would like to "track" my sleep.

You think that SaA is inaccurate? Do you know any other app better than that?

Also, what do you think about the steps measurements with the MB4? I know that for this price range we can't ask to much, but it doesn't seems very reliable (and let's not talk about the heart rate sensor because is even difficult to know).

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Well, from my experience SaA doesn't register wake up times in the middle of the night. Not only brief ones (take a sip of water or go to the bathroom and back), but even if I literally walked around the house for tens of minutes (with my toddler). Mi Fit and N&F showed correctly this period as a break in sleep, SaA considered it as a sleeping time. If it can't register this kind of disruption, I question other stats as well. The need for manual start and stop of sleep tracking is annoying too.

Recently I noticed that Mi Fit sometimes stops sleep tracking prematurely or starts lately. With N&F I get very consistent results and fall asleep/get up times are very accurate as well. Regarding light/deep sleep stats..they are all assumptions and each app gives different results, even if you select different version of sleep analysis in N&F. I do not really trust any of those stats in absolute values, but they should be "good enough" to provide trends. So even if they give us wrong results, as long as they are consistently wrong, we can still benefit from them as we see change in usual patterns (I can easily identify nights when I drank more than I should just by looking at sleep charts :) ).

Personally I find steps counter very accurate, when I manually counted 100 steps, MB4 and MB2 showed 100 as well. Sometimes they register "false steps", but at the end of the day it makes maybe 5-10% of overcounting, so IMHO "good enough" again. For tracking of longer walks/runs I consider it spot on.

I compared HR measurements between MB2, MB4, semi-professional (blood pressure monitoring device) and professional equipment (EKG) and they all provided about the same values while resting. You can verify it easily manually, there is no need for an extra device. Optical sensors have limits and in extreme conditions (heavy/fast hand movements, sweaty skin etc.) they can't provide accurate results, but for day-to-day usage they should be "good enough". They aren't intended as professional devices anyway.

Long story short, I use only N&F now and trust provided data as accurate enough for my non-professional usage. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Well, that was a very good explanation about what you think [emoji16]

Honestly, i never liked very much Mi Fit app and i still use Mi Band Tools because i need to spend (probably more than i wanted) time to figure out how everything works.
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Mi Fit seems much better now, it used to be way worse. However I do not like the fact that it uses almost as much CPU as Android system itself. For no apparent reason it uses CPU all the time (albeit small utilization, but very consistent). One must ask what is it doing in the background.. :) So I rather uninstalled it.

If you have to learn how to use a new app, I'd suggest giving a chance to N&F. It can be overwhelming at first, but IMHO it's worth the time and money. Once you set it up to your liking it's really great.
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Do you own or work at N&F? Just kidding [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]

Mi Band Tools is much simpler but N&F made me curious. I'll give it a try.

Just 2 more things:

-if you uninstalled Mi Fit, you now use customs fw to the Mi Band 4?

-Do you use N&F also as an alarm clock?

I've been using Sleep as Android not only because the ability of sleep tracker (being it reliable or not), the challenges to make people improve their quality of sleep, the warning about bedtime (in order to sleep the hours we want), the smart wake time period, and, finally, the lullabies.

Basically it's an AIO, instead of having a "bunch" of apps.

Thanks, and sorry for the testament. [emoji16]
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
It might seem that I have some profit from promoting N&F so much, but that's (unfortunately) not true. :D Just a happy user, spreading info around. :)

There are no custom FWs for MB4 (and probably never will be), so I'm still using only firmware provided by Xiaomi, just flashing it via N&F. I am subscribed to this topic on geekdoing.com, all the firmwares are listed there with download links. Be careful to wait for confirmation that newly released FW is stable and released in Mi Fit as well, one beta firmware bricked a few devices.

I tried smart alarm in N&F once or twice, but it worked just as a normal alarm (maybe because it was set up for 05:00 and there wasn't big enough time window to detect light sleep phase? ). As I don't need vibrations to wake me up, I'm sticking with standard alarm on the phone.

I am not discouraging you from using SaA, I was actively using it for years (even though purely as a sleep tracker), just that one should be aware of its possible limitations. It's still interesting app with some unique features and I really wish they fixed/improved sleep tracking with MB4. Sometimes I still track my sleep with sonar in SaA, I find it really fascinating that in ideal case they're able to detect even breathing. Just don't use it around dogs and small children, they are able to hear it :)
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
I thought that the fw upgrade option on N&F was for customs. If not, there's not much interest on having Mi Fit installed?!
[Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
N&F will flash any compatible firmware BIN file. I download the official FW and RES files, flash FW first, then RES and band is updated. Mi Fit does it automatically, with N&F you need to download and flash files manually.

I received this OTA update this morning. It contains camera & fingerprint optimizations as well as the July security patches , according to the changelog. The update file was over 4gb, so there must have been more changes right?:confused:
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] bauer18:
I received the same ota update, i downloaded it anyway regardless the file size.
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] orpheliaca:
I didn't get any update yet in UK. On which countries are you guys? I will try to use an VPN so maybe I an get it faster

Did you actually notice any of the improvements mentioned in the changelog?
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] trust_attrition:
It updated against my settings and will in the middle of the night, no clue how big it was or what it did, only that I know I confirmed that the settings were off every time the phone bothered me about automatic updates and yet it greeted me with a new update in the morning.

I need to either sell this phone or root it before the week is over or I will go insane.
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] Klaudas:
Today I got it in baltic states. Fingerprint seems to be a little faster but I'm not sure. And phone feels smoother. For camera changing from main to telephoto transition is faster, some new options for doing video and better autofocus in my opinion. They must have done something more than just fingerprint and camera update because 4GB is pretty big update.
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] Enricosteph:
Got it today in Germany. Fingerprint seams much better now!

[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] RMerlin:
Thanks for letting me know. Still nothing here with Fido, but if one Canadian provider started offering it, then they probably started the deployment and it shouldn't be too long now for the rest of us to get it (assuming we both have the C792 model that I have).
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] deejaygur:
just to be clear it was mistake on my part i have P30 PRO version (C792). Im sure update come soon for everyone since this update was released on july 31.
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] RMerlin:
Unfortunately that's not necessarily the case. The P30 Pro received multiple updates in the past 30-60 days, while my P30 only received a single one (9.1.0.164). Huawei are far more active at updating the P30 Pro than the P30, and some countries are getting even fewer updates than others. So, it could take weeks, if not months for it to finally appear on our P30s..

The P30 Pro received an update with the July security patches, while my P30 never received anything. I love this phone, but I already miss the steady flow of security updates that I used to get every month with my previous Nexus phones.

[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] Fl1nt91:
I got a problems after the update.

The phone doesn't show me notifications anymore. They arrives, sounds and vibrations, but it doesn't show me any kind of notifications.

And even the power-off popup menu doesn't appear when I press off the power button.. there mus be some problems with screen layers or who knows what

Help! I don't want to reset
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] Enricosteph:
Try to wipe the cache partition this fixes most problems after a update....

I do this after every update and never had any problems...

This will not reset the whole phone so you will not lose any data...

Power off your device

Press and hold the power button and volume UP button until recovery mode appears

Use volume buttons to highlight ‘wipe cache partition’ and use power key to select it

Reboot the system once the process is completed
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] Fl1nt91:
It worked!
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] orpheliaca:
Security patches, camera improvements (why they don't care to elaborate which one?) and fingerprint improvements shouldn't weigh more than 500-600mb.

If they made the update 4GB, which is a full ROM they obviously changed a lot of things more... why don't specify what is beyond my knowledge. Welcome to Huawei transparent communication with their customers about their products
[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] RMerlin:
9.1.0.185 just arrived on my C792 Canadian model, currently installing.

Could simply be that they recompiled everything with a newer toolchain or linked against newer libraries, causing image-wide changes to the files.

I still suspect tho that there are more changes than what the changelog states. Just looking at what was in updates on the P30 Pro these past two months (fingerprint reader improvements, camera improvements, etc...), some of these might possibly be in there. We are also supposed to be receiving voltage-based screen dimming at some point (versus the current PWM method).

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 AM ----------

I think the new voltage-based screen dimming is indeed there. There's a Flicker Reduction setting now under Display -> Eye Comfort. So, there might be a few more hidden changes in this update.

Hi all,

I have a major problem with my honor v10, a few months ago my fingerprint sensor button stopped working for no reason, but now I just use the navigation bar.

3 days ago all of a sudden I could not accept incoming phone calls at all, when I get an incoming call the dialer screen does not show up at all, I get a green banner along the top of the screen saying "touch to return to incoming call" I touch that and nothing happens....

I have tried everything possible to fix this to no avail, I even did a factory reset and that did not work....

Has anyone experienced this and any ideas on how to fix it? I'm guessing it is a software problem?

Thanks in advance for your help
