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!

Thanks for the really really great tool, @lvpokka! Is there a json template/example that contains all of the supported tags? For instance, I'd like a PAI progress indicator and I wonder if it is possible.

nope) i hope someone from followers will make such item) to get element, just download watchface with needed element, and copy json from it

BTW> 2.1.5 released

"Time": "DelimiterImage" is still not displayed in preview.

Code: Select all

    "TimeDelimiterImage": {   //  visible in preview
      "X": 95,
      "Y": 168,
      "ImageIndex": 92,
    },
    "DelimiterImage": {       //  NOT shown in preview
      "X": 0,
      "Y": 168,

MiBandWFTool cannot unpack the MI stock WFs of the "Photo Watch Face" series (Style1 ... Style5).

Yes, it was not supported by purpose. It's not possible to get data from photo wface because its just a dummy and all compilations was performed on uploading to mi band 5

I saw in the official's WF for Mi Band 5, that the numbers can be turned. It will be nice if you can include this option in the tool

Do not understand, still

Turned = gyrate = deranged

Are you sure that it's just a dummy?
I think that there is in the MB5 an overlay with a PNG with alpha blend to give all white pixels (except in the photo) the selected color.
It would be nice if it were also possible to easily change the colors of our custom WFs.
Could you do some research there?
After all, the error message indicates that there is an unknown parameter for "Background".

The bottom alignment bug in preview ist NOT fixed !

see viewtopic.php?p=6371#p6371

yeap, watchface is not containing background in itself(as it was in mi band 4), even if you uploaded it to mi band 5
also there is allot of images of position of elements, and it looks as configuration, not as builded watchface

i need proofs, please upload images and protos of a problem,
also i need bin files with problem

Posted: **26 Aug 2020, 12:45**

"Alarm" - preview bug
"Text": OK
"ImageOn": OK
"ImageOff": OK
"ImageNoAlarm": The red line in my example should start at X=0 and Y=17, but starts at the position defined in "Text"

On MB5 all works like expected.

Posted: **26 Aug 2020, 21:12**

Next preview bug:
"StepsProgress": - "CircleScale":
MB5 stops drawing the progress bar if "EndAngle" is reached, preview drawes around...

Posted: **28 Aug 2020, 02:50**

excuse me，Can AQI data be displayed on the MIBAND5? Only three animation files can be json? thanks.....

Posted: **30 Aug 2020, 07:48**

Suggestion for improvement:
The display of the MB5 has rounded corners.
It would be nice if the corresponding pixels were also set to black in the preview.

Will be nice if the next version of tool adds some function to shortcuts, and other for modify the complications (as the original theme for Mi Band 5)

Posted: **06 Sep 2020, 01:12**

hi,
could u pls. modify a new tool based on the version of GTR-Watchface-editor,
The design is very convenient, intuitive, and has a “Shortcuts" function, you can click somewhere on the screen to enter the corresponding program. as franluciani mentioned
Thank you very much!

Hello. I have a little problem with the version "Mi Band 5 WF Tool v2.1.6".

I downloaded the following watchface:
https://amazfitwatchfaces.com/mi-band-5/view/577

I can extract it to JSON with no problems. But if I want to pack it back into the BIN without making any changes, I get the following error message:
"Fatal | [ERROR] Watchface is greater than 615kb, it will not be accepted by Mi Band 5, please reduce size! Current size: 724kb.
Fatal | System.ArgumentException: [ERROR] Watchface is greater than 615kb, it will not be accepted by Mi Band 5, please reduce size! Current size: 724kb.

at FBdrVENTOSQNAwAAQU.BV9w4uUq25cVnqdLQO.F4U4xmNtm (String []) "

Does somebody has any idea?
