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;

Hei
I can confirm the issue with the installation of Amafish and version 4.1.0.23.

erdzas's picture

Hi,

I upgraded my phone (XA2+) to 4.1.0.23 and now I can't install the app.

I can't install the app, gets the following error:
Nothing provides libicui18.so.66 needed by libKDb3.3.3.0-1.6.1.jolla.armv7hl.

piggz's picture

Yup, make you choice, EA sailfish or amazfish! :)

I have to wait until the 4.1 SDK is available to build everything against that version.

sashikknox's picture

Can.you buid libicu with amazfish? And deploy it to amazfish as additional library?

piggz's picture

No, it causes major issues as you would have some system libs like Qt against one icu version, and the app against another, and nothing good can ceom from that.

kostas12ldb's picture

Gd evening piggz, and thank you very much, in advance, for your efforts! Great Job!
I am facing one problem with my Amazfit GTS (connected on an Xperia 10 Plus running the latest SFOS 4).
In a few words: I cannot send any files to the GTS.
First of all, the "Download File" function only seems to work when the connection between the watch and the phone is reset (turn BT OFF and back ON). Whenever I try to send a second file (without reseting the connection), I get the pop-up message "No file selected".
Now, when I try to send a file directly after a connection reset, your app recognizes the file type (watchface, GPS package, etc), but when I press the "Send" button, nothing happens. No pop-up message, no percentage movement. Nothing.
Any idea what could be the cause of this?
 

piggz's picture

Ill check ..,, they changed the GPS format, and currently there are no supported GPS files to send to the devices with the newer firmware.  The reason it doesnt allow a second file is that the watch just doesnt respond with an error, so the transfer hangs, I will have to add a timeout.  Watchface should work, I will chec that.

kostas12ldb's picture

For some reason, sending watchface files doesn't work either. :/
I tried the Download File function with various GTS firmwares (including the firmware you mention in your guides), but didn't help.
Anyway, your app is a lifesaver for us "hikers", even without the extra watchfaces!
Just "purchased" your app. Cheers for your fast response! :)

piggz's picture

I just tried to send a watchface to my GTS and it worked fine.  You will have to send some logs.  devel-l su, journcalctl | grep amaz

Problems with step registration for previous days. I checked my Mi Band 4 yesterday evening before I went to bed. 15 000 steps. When I look back today, the graph only says 7388 steps. Does anyone else have this problem?

piggz's picture

All shows the "iive" steps from the band for today, and the downloaded steps for history, so possible you are not syncing info

Hello,

So I got my Amazfit Bip working by the end of last year. But yesterday the screen just came loose of the watch (!!) and I decided to go for a new watch: an Amazfit GTS 2e.

I linked the watch to an iPhone (because we have no Android phones) and got the auth key via the mentioned python script. I removed the bluetooth connection from the iPhone to the watch. Then I started pairing with my Sailfish phone: I selected the GTS watch in Amazfish and entered the auth key. The phone is connected via bluetooth to my XA2 with Koli, I see the bluetooth sign and a tril to connect ot the watch, but nothing happens anyfurther. In the debug menu I see the correct Software Rev of the watch (firmware V1.3.14.04), but Connection State says: "authfailed". Is this because I paired with an iPhone instead of an Android device or is this because I was too eager and the GTS 2e is just not supported (yet)?

Yeah, sorry, GTS2E isnt a supported device, also, I dont have a timeline for it.

My fault. I hoped it would work as the app does support the GTS. If I can help with supporting the GTS2e (sending debug logs etc.), please let me know :)

Thank you for this great app and all the effort you have already put in it. In the mean time I think I will switch to a supported watch.

Are config->deviceDisplayWeatherShortcut() and config->deviceDisplayAliPayShortcut() supported for Amazfit Bip ?
I would like to have those activated for so called "right-swipe" (from the face), but couldn't figure out how to do it.
I see code related to those 2 shortcuts in mibandservice.cpp, but no idea if it's working or how correct it is.
Unfortunately nothing in the UI about those 2 shortcuts.

Hi, 

When I try to load a new watchface (.bin file) onto my GTS I get "filetype not supported for this device".  Is this a bug, something I'm doing wrong, or a feature that isn't implememnted yet?

Also, is there a way to turn on the "light up on lift"?  I can't find it in Amazfish or the settings on the watch.

Thanks for the app.

Steve

The functions of an Amazfit GTR seem rather limited. E.g., there is no settings entry or alarm entry in the main menu. It is possible to set these entries on a button by the android app but this is rather a semi workaround since there is only one button which can be configured but more menu entries that are missing. I know you dont have this watch, but if I can help debugging or something Id be happy...

Hello, Amazfish hasn't worked for me for 6 months since around the time 3.4 SailfishOS came out. So today I uninstalled Amazfish and moved /home/nemo/.local/share/harbour-amazfish, /home/nemo/.config/harbour-amazfish and /home/nemo/.cache/harbour-amazfish to a backup and reinstalled. But it is still not working.

The app does not display download data, e.g. it says it is downloading sports activities, but does show the data afterwards, the list is empty.

Any ideas how can I get it working again?

Sony X with Bip Watch, software v1.1.6.34. Sailfish Koli 4.0.1.48 with Amazfish 1.9.7-1.18.1.jolla

Ah, you are talking about flashing, not connecting..... flashing isnt currently implemented for the BipS

Ya, I was. I finally did have an Android device briefly (before flashing Sailfish X) so I got the watch flashed and "authorized". Then I was able to use the python humai script to extrat that (from the SFOS terminal!) and I was able to pair it with the phone. Stuff seems to happen, although the BT seems to disconnect and re-connect all the time, I don't know if that's normal for a fitness tracker, but the XA2 Ultra has some bluetooth oddities with SFOS. (E.g., can't pair with car audio at all.)

Anyway, I think I'm getting Amazfit to do some stuff now. I did have a few suggestions. I'd like to see the controls in the app give some more feedback when they work. Like "save" buttons could do something to re-asure me they really saved. And the download firmware function maybe could give a message for unsupported devices that they're . . . unsupported, rather then just not doing anything. UI stuff like that to help the user understand the app and feel more confident that they're really doing the right thing. (Particularly me, with no experience with fitness apps at all.)

Thanks, again!

Amazfish looks cool, and pairs up ok on a pinephone with SFOS just great, but what to do to get the user space firmware on Bip S? All it does right now is let me pick language and show a QR code. I don't have any g* or i* devices to "OTA" the official way, and it doesn't seem to be packaged in the APKs anymore that I've found mirrored on the internets . . . any pointers appreciated -- pm me at TMO (same username) if you've got some advice. Eager to get going with this app and this watch. Thanks!

If you dont have access to an android device to obtain the authentication key for the watch, you will have to use the following python script https://github.com/argrento/huami-token which can also download the AGPS data

I think I've found some proper firmware for the Bip S, but apparently I'm dense as to where to put the files for Amazfish to find them, since when I pull down the menu and select "Download File" in Amazfish the "Choose File: None" label is dimmed. No amount of clicking does anything. Should a get a file-selection dialog at this point? I'm using SFOS 3.4 on a PinePhone, so I guess I could also have a pinephone problem.

So, issue submitted, looking forward for help :) If it helps, donation is sure thing :) 

Malakay's picture

Please Piggz, can you help me??

piggz's picture

You need to send logs from the daemon, and tell me what watch.  For logs, "devel-su, journalctl | grep amaz"
