GTR/VL BIN Watchfaces converter for Stratos 3 & Verge

This is a Windows tool which will make most (hopefully) of GTR47/GTR42/VL (VergeLite)* BIN watchfaces compatible with Stratos 3 and Verge converting BIN files into WFZ files

You can convert more than one BIN each time

Use this tool just for personal usage otherwise you will have to ask for permission to watchfaces devs

* The few VL BINs I have tested could be converted but they freeze in screen lock/SLPT mode

Requirements

Windows OS (Tested on Widows 10 x64)

Stratos 3 or Verge watch

ADB drivers

Phone running on Android

If Weather doesn't work, AmazMod and Openweather API Key for weather data in Stratos 3

Some watchfaces may not work if this is not correctly set

Supported firmwares/ROMs

Those firmwares which have WearStore watchface support

Stratos 3:

A1929 running latest US firmware​

A1928 running latest CN firmware​

Verge:

A1801 running latest CN firmware​

A1811 running latest US 3.2.7.5 firmware is now supported. Check Post #2​

Tool Scripts

Launcher.bat = Run this to launch the tool

Clean.bat = This will delete ALL files and folders of the tool. So be aware of this as you will lose ALL your WFZs

How to use the tool

Download the tool

Unzip it

Connect your watch to PC

Run Launcher.bat

Put all BIN watchfaces you want to convert in wfs folder. Avoid long text names (Option 5)

Choose the number depending on converter version you want to use to convert the watchfaces (Option 1-4 for Verge / Option 1-2 for Stratos 3)

Converted WFZs will be copied to conv folder and pushed to watch when conversion process is done with "-S3" or "-Verge" and "v0.4x" corresponding to used converter version string in WFZ name

Disconnect your watch from PC

Exit the Launcher (Option 0)

Select the new WFZs from your watch or Amazfit app

Tips

Run v0.4a converter as a start, if some data is not correctly aligned, convert those watchfaces with another converter version with no alignment fix feature and see if that one works better.

Verge users, if you have issues with converted black color digits/time hands in AOD, just use another converter version with no black digits fix.

Some converted WFZs may not contain any preview pic

Note that the tool will convert all the BINs in wfs folder each time you run conversion script

Conversion time will be different depending on the BIN amount and type (GTR42 BINs don't need rescaling neither GTR47 for Verge) to be converted, your CPU and your HDD speed

Before converting the WFZs I recommend you to set up AmazMod and Openweather data in Stratos 3

Some features supported on GTR/VL may not be supported on Stratos 3/Verge like arch overlay and others, and you may face some glitches or not correctly scaled data
