FAQ
What do Chinese and international (CE) versions of watches mean?
The difference is very simple, but difficult to master:
The hours the Chinese language version will be Chinese at any locale (the language of the shell) in addition to English.
The clock language of the international (CE) version will be English to any locale (shell language) of the phone other than Chinese.
The watch version information is determined by the HW (hardware) version and is stored in the user's private storage area next to the mac address.
What is the relationship between firmware files and the MiFit app?
The official MiFit application always contains the firmware files of a certain version and if the firmware version is lower in hours than in MiFit, the update process will start automatically. If you set Mifit earlier, he won't ship to watch their older firmware. The firmware itself consists of files .fw,.res,.ft, gps. When loading files with third-party porgrams (not via MiFit) during hours, it is necessary that the versions of the files correspond to each other. Sometimes, for example, when modifying the firmware to a file .fw adds an offset coordinate signatures of the main menu (to Russification), respectively the file .res must be taken from the same firmware version and with the signatures menu, under the modified offset in the file .fw. In case of an error, the clock menu will be shifted from the center to the right or left
How important is the sequence of firmware files?
In the post with the firmware you specify the sequence in which official MiFit update the firmware. When downgrading (lowering the firmware version) in most cases, the reverse sequence works, but sometimes the firmware is loaded only if the first fill the file .gps - this procedure is also indicated in the posts with firmware.
The main menu items are pictures (stored in a file).res and can be edited), subparagraphs are text (sewn in the firmware).
What does "Turn Off" mean when you set the trigger to hold the button?
If this option is selected, the button will not work for a long time, i.e. it is a quick start shutdown, not a clock shutdown. the post vitec
What is the polarity for the connection charge? See here
What was the default order of menu items? Response to question
When you replace the phone or upgrade the phone's firmware need to decouple the clock from mefite?
The clock is not tied to the phone and not to a specific MiFit, but to the Mi-account. It is enough to install MiFit on a new phone, log in to your Mi-account and connect your watch. Untie need only if you give/sell/give the watch to another person who will link them to your (other) Mi-account.
