Companion application for Huami Devices (such as Amazfit Bip, Cor, MiBand2/3 and GTS and GTS), Pinetime Infinitime and Bangle.js.

Amazfish from 2.0.3 s now ONLY distributed in the "chum" repository!

Updated Installation Instructions (Aug 2021)

This application requires several supporting packages.  Until Aug 2021, these were available on openrepos for the latest SailfishOS release.  Updating these libs is a big pain, so they have now moved to SailfishOS::Chum.  If you dont know what that is, read this https://build.merproject.org/project/show/sailfishos:chum:testing

To install Amazfish, first install the "chum" repository from the link above and "pkcon refresh" then install Amazfish.

I apologise about thie extra step, but it makes updates much easier.  Pacakges in chum are automatically built for each SailfishOS release and instantly available.  In the future, Amazfish may also be distributed this way, but for now, it can still be installed from here, for the current SailfishOS release.

If you already have Amazfish installed, and need to update, you will also need chum, but you may have to drop to a command line and "zypper dup" and accept and changes to the package vendor.

Supported Devices

There are 3 tiers of supported devices:

Gold

These are devices I have, have tested and will try not to break any functioanlity for an include:
* Amazfit Bip
* Amazfit GTS
* Pinetime Infinitme
* Bangle.js

Silver

These are devices which are properly implemented in the application, but I do not have and are tested by the commuity, and include:
* Amazfit BipS
* Amazfit Bip Lite
I do not promise not to break funcaionality in these, but will fix where I can

Bronze

These are devices which use a protocol that is close to another suppored device, and so is treated like that device.  Your mileage may vary with these devices.
* MiBand 2/3/4
* AMzfit Cor
* Amazfit GTR

***BUILT FOR 3.4 PLEASE READ OLDER USERS***

Amazfish needs to be built on OBS against a defined set of libraries.  Becuase there is a delay between a Sailfish release and that release being available on OBS, there will be a delay to supporting the latest versions.

For releases of the current version built against other Sailfish releases, use the repositories at :

https://build.merproject.org/project/show/home:piggz:harbour-amazfish and
https://build.merproject.org/project/show/home:piggz:kf5

***PLEASE READ for 1.7.0 Update***

The new sport display feature requires the MapBox component.  The easiest way to get this is by installing PureMaps from rinigus repository.

Powered by KEXI

As of version 0.5.1, actiivity data is retrieved into an sqlite database.  Becuase I think it is important to allow individuals to be in control of their own data, and that they should have the ability to analyse it themsleves, I have chosen to store data in a KEXI compatible database.  This will allow you to copy the database from the phone, and open it up inside KEXI on Linux/Windows/Mac and perform queries and reports on it.  This added ability means i link to a couple of KDE libraries, which should be installed automatically.

Firmware Download - READ FIRST - I am not liable if you brick your watch ;)

Read this for info about which files to flash https://github.com/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/wiki/Amazfit-Bip-Firmware...

App has been tested using an amazfit bip and GTS, downloading the latest (0.1.1.45) official firmware.

The firmware is split into multiple files on these devices.  With the official MiFit app, all are downloaded at once, and everything works fine.  With this app, you have to send each file individually.  The firmwares are available by extracting the MiFit apk, and looking in the assets/ folder for files named Mili_chaohu.*.  When you select a file, its type and version will be determined, and you will be prevented from sending invalid files.

The firmware (.fw) requires a matching fotn (.ft) and resource (.res).  Send the firmware first, the app will send a reboot command at the end of the transfer, and the watch will boot up into a mode where it needs the matching font and resource sent.  Just wait for the app to connect again, then send the font and resource. 

The following types of file exist:

firmware, resource, a-gps data, fonts

So, to re-iterate, the firmware flashing order is:

  • .fw
  • .ft
  • .res

Server Side Pairing Code

The newer devices (GTS, BipS etc) requires a server-side pairing key which requires inital pairing with an android device.  To get the key, follow the instructions here and enter into Amzafish when prompted, WITHOUT 0x at the beginning.

See https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/wiki/Amazfit-GTS

AGPS Download/Transfer

The official amazfit app can download and transfer the AGPS files to the watch automatically.  The amazfit web site limits download of the files to those with accounts.  A python script has been developped that can download the AGPS files, these can then be transferred to your phone, and downloaded to the watch using the normal "Download File" option.

  • Obtain the script from https://github.com/argrento/huami-token
  • Download the AGPS files using the -g paramter, this will download 2 .zip file.  The only one required is cep_alm_pak.zip
  • Extract the zip and transfer the 2 .bin files to the phone
  • Send the files gps_alm.bin and cep_pak.bin to the watch.

Pairing Issues

Pairing works for myself, sometimes I have to try twice.  If pairing doesnt work at all, then try:

  • keep the app open, and pair again in the BT settings page of sailfish
  • in the sailfish BT settings page, delete all entries and try again
  • turn off/on BT on the phone
  • factory reset the watch

Check if after all this, pairing works from the sailfish BT settings page.  It should pair and connect just fine from there.  f that doesnt work, my app wont either.

Not all features currently implemented

***May not work on all devices***

Uses Bluetooth Low Energy to communicate with the watch, this is known to be problematic on some devices.  it is known to work on the Xiaomi Mido.  Probably also works on the FP2.  Official devices unknown.

Implemented

  • Pairing
  • Notifications
  • Calls
  • Some settings
  • Retrieving activities
  • Heartrate Chart
  • Alarms
  • Watchface download
  • Firmware upload
  • Activity Sync

Todo

  • More Settings
  • Support other devices (maybe eg MiBand2, as it is similar)

Tip:
On your device, create a symlink in /home/nemo to /home/nemo/.local/share/harbour-amazfish
This way, you can easilty copy the database off the phone using MTP.

Button Actions

Bip and GTS notify when the watch button is pressed. This is captured by amazfish which allows running actions on theses presses. An action can be ran on 2,3 or 4 presses. To confiure the actions, goto Settings > Application > Button Actions.

A custom script can be used, the script must be called harbour-amazfish-script.sh and be in the home folder. Example which sends a OTP code to the watch as a message:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" == "4" ]; then
    CODE=`python3 -c 'import pyotp;totp = pyotp.TOTP("XXXX Authenticator code here XXXX");print(totp.now())'`
    dbus-send --session --print-reply --dest=uk.co.piggz.amazfish /application uk.co.piggz.amazfish.sendAlert string:'' string:'Google OTP' string:$CODE boolean:true
fi;

Does it work now?

carmenfdezb's picture

Hi @piggz!! Thanks for your excellent app!! It works perfect with my amazfit bip, but for some reason, Amazfish doesn't show info about steps in the first page:

https://ibb.co/YbSVJ6R

What am I doing wrong?

piggz's picture

Nothing, its just I moved the steps info to the page on the right.

carmenfdezb's picture

Ok, thanks for your answer!

D_R's picture

I have some trouble with telegram:I'm blocked now...
But I investigated the problem: I can't find any database. Uninstalling and reinstallin amazfish doesn't help. Is there any script to recreate the database?

vige's picture

The new disconnect notification is awesome - I would have forgotten my phone already twice today without it :-D

D_R's picture

How can I catch you on Telegram?

piggz's picture

@adampigg

D_R's picture

Yes I can

D_R's picture

Happy new year... Thank you for the update of Amazfish. The database problem is still existing in v1.0 on XA2. I can't see any graphs an plots.

piggz's picture

can you catch me on telegram with sone logs?

ferlanero's picture

Contribution to buy an Amazfit GTS and ships it to @adampigg, so that he can work on adapting Amazfish and make it works on the GTS.

This should make Amazfish working for the new #Xiaomiwatchcolor (Bip2 or Lite) https://leetchi.com/c/amazfish-for-amazfit-gts

Branja's picture

I finally installed Sailfish X on my Xperia XA2, and I can confirm that I can pair neither Amazfit BIP lite nor Xiaomi Mi Band 2. I tried pretty much everything.

 

edit: And as I saw on Twitter, the developer of this app has broken his watch by accident. :(

piggz's picture

Its ok, i glued it back together!  Im sure you will get it to pair, perhaps supply logs via github.

Branja's picture

Amazing! I know it's a noobish question but, how can I do that?

 

edit: I successfully connected Mi Band 2 but I still can't connect BIP Lite. It says authfailed. I read about it online a little bit (on the Gadgetbridge wiki) and it turns out that all the newer devices, including BIP Lite, need an official app in order to pair because they require a server-based pairing. Now, there is an easy way to obtain a pairing key on an Android-based phone via a cracked Mi Fit app. Is there a way that You can implement pairing keys into your app or should I sell my BIP Lite and order an original BIP watch? p.s. Sorry for bothering you and demanding certain things. I am just a noob who feels love for this kind of technology. I will help you out however I can.

piggz's picture

ive just read up on server based pairing, and i should be able to implement it, but you will have to expect to wait a little while.

Branja's picture

Not a problem, kind sir. I will wait as long as it takes. Please, let me know if I need to test something out.

alex000090's picture

Good morning!

I try flash new firmware for watch, but when I open FW.latin file (first), the program write "Invalid" in type string. I use last version of the program.

Branja's picture

Guys, I am planning to buy a Sony Xperia XA2 and an Amazfit BIP Lite. Can somebody confirm that these two will work together?

jpn9s's picture

I can confirm that Amazfit Cor with Amazfisf app works quite well in my XA2 Sfos 3.2.0.12. I suppose Cor might be quite near Bip, but I do not know Bip Lite.

Thank you for your reply. I am a bit worried because I read that those new devices (BIP Lite, Mi Band 4, Amazfit GTR) require a server-based paring at first. This means that one needs to pair either of these devices with a Mi Fit app and then obtain a pairing key (at least, that's the case on Android). I ordered an Amazfit BIP Lite, and I want to buy an Xperia XA2 and to run Sailfish on it. I would be hugely disappointed in case I cannot do that, and that I need to return to Android.

Does it work with a Band I 4?

I no longer get my AmazfitBIP paired. Amazfish runs on the XperiaX with Sailfish 3.1.0.11. The clock is displayed in the Bluetooth settings under paired devices. It is also found by the app and the following text is displayed:

Connecting to watch...
/org/bluez/hci0/dev_F0_1A_...
pairing

That's all there is to it.

 
What have I already tried...

- Switch Bluetooth off and on again
- In the settings of the "Stop and Start Service" app

When I connect the clock in the shell via bluetoothctl, I get the following:

[Amazfit Bip Watch]# info F0:1A:...
Device F0:1A:... (random)
Name: Amazfit Bip Watch
Alias: Amazfit Bip Watch
Paired: yes
Trusted: yes
Blocked: no
Connected: yes
LegacyPairing: no
UUID: Vendor specific

Besides, the clock now shows connected, only the app unfortunately does not.

What else can I try? On the PC with Android emulator and "Gadgetbridge" it can be connected without problems.

Thanks Ronny

Does the device mac address match in all cases?  You could try fully resetting the application with

dconf reset -f /uk/co/piggz/amazfish

Thanks for the answer. I reserve that as my last option.

I have tried pairing the phone with another device. After I have removed this connection, the Amazfish app connects automatically. Unfortunately, the activity data does not arrive completely in the database. After about 25 hours no more lines are created in the Kexi-file and nothing is displayed in the diagram. In the home directory 7.4GB are still free.

So I probably can't get around it...

Yeah, i have a known issue with how times are saved for the last sync, ill be working on it soon

This is amazing software and works VERY well.

The one issue I'm having is that when setting the Distance Unit to Imperial (under Device Settings) it does not seem to save the settings.

The settings on the watch don't change and the app is defaulted back to Metric when going back into the settings.

Very nice app for my Amazfit Bip. The connection to the app works, but the data transfer only works sometimes. When I first retrieve the data it works, the second time it stops working. And if he has loaded the data the first time, then he does not display it in the diagram. I'm looking forward to more updates.

The sleep data seems to be not working... Claims I've slept from 15.9. to 24.9. ~14 hours each night and today is 16.9...
