MiBandWFTool

Tool Description
1. The tool is based on a modified version of AmazfitBipTools, thanks to the original open source .
2. The tool supports unpacking, packing of the official watch face bin file.
3. Mi band 4 supports 16,581,375 colors.
4. Mi band 5 supports 15,499,008 colors.

How to
1. Unzip MiBandWFTool_X.X.zip.
2. Download .bin file from catalog or get standard watchface file.
3. Drag the .bin file to WatchFace.exe (in step 1. , get the decompressed file)
(if there is only one log file, the decompression failed).

4. There are two ways to modify the dial.
  • is to modify the corresponding image file and replace it with what we want.
  • is to modify the corresponding json file and modify the position of the image.
5. After all the modifications are completed, drag the modified json into WatchFace.exe in step 1 to get the corresponding bin file
(the file name depends on the name of the bin. If the .bin file is not generated, the package is wrong)

6. Copy the newly generated bin file to the corresponding directory of the mobile phone, and the synchronization will be completed. (This step is not very clear, you can refer to the original tutorial) above, you're done!

Hello,

is there something we can do about that:

"3. Drag the .bin file to WatchFace.exe (in step 1. , get the decompressed file)
(if there is only one log file, the decompression failed)."

You can use console istead, so just put necesary .bin file together with WatchFace.exe and run command like:
WatchFace filename.bin

form that directory.

If the version of .bin file is correct (it is expecting that it is mi band 4 watchface file), program will extract files into /filename directory.
If not, you will see error output on screen and in log file.

Hi guys,
I have a problem with bin file: all is perfect (even previews) but when I try to sync faces with Android and iOS steps are missing.
(you can find mine in the miband5 faces to have some proof)
Suggestions about it?
Thanks

Pay attention to unknowns values. If you omit this the steps doesn't will appear on Mi Band 5. Download any WF and check the unknowns values for activity/steps

The code in MB5 is not exactly the same for MB4. Have a little differences. I recomend download any WF to MB5 and adapt this to the WF that you want to do
