Installing Custom GTR Watchfaces

[[email protected]]

I have a GTR watch. I have downloaded the watch faces I am ingterested in but do not know how to install so the amazfit app will see the files and I'm able to install through the app.

nstalling the Watch faces via Amazfit:
Download the custom dial.
Go to Amazfit to synchronize an official dial
Open in filemanager /Android/data/com.huami.watch.hmwatchmanager/files/watch_skin_local directory
Find the official dial you just synced, there is a bin file after opening.
Copy the name of the bin, delete it, then decompress our custom dial and rename it to the original name.
Go to Amazfit, find this dial to re-synchronize

I am hung up on copy the name of the bin, delete it (delete the whole file or just the nanme) then decompress our custom dial (how do I decompress, my file manager Solid Explorer I see no option for this) and rename it to the orignal name ( what orignal name, name of the file I dleted?)

Is there any video that could walk me through the steps so I can successfully download and install your watch faces.

Thanks for your help.

The. bin dial file does not need to be decompressed. Direct renaming replaces (covers) official dial files.

So the steps are completed.

This method is not working. 'Couldn't Sync, try again'. I have latest firmware 1....37

The important thing is, that you find the correct directory/folder.
At the beginning I first used wrong folders and copied the bin into it, synched it and still had the old watchface...

BTW After you found the correct folder, always use only that folder resp. in Amazfit always the same watchface to update downloaded watchfaces. So it will be easier.

Do you use a tool called Total Commander?
With this you always have two windows (folders) between which you can swipe over and over. (swipe left and swipe right).
For me it is the watch_skin_local directory and my Download directory on the SD Card, where I save my bin (and png) files I sent per Email from my computers.
Tipp: With a long tab on a file you get different options as copy, move, rename, delete and so on.

Really good resp comfortable you could organize it, if you always save the picture of the watchface too (and give the bin and the png file the same and useful names), so that you in your "download" directory always have a picture (png) and the watchface (bin). So you always can scroll through all your watchfaces (with picture) and the one you want to updload you only have to copy to the watch_skin_local directory and rename it. Then you can upload it with Amazfit.
BTW Total Commander remembers the two last directories you were in. So always, when you start it you are at the correct locations.

For me this is the best solution.
The App "Amazfit Watch Faces" again and again, is not really able to upload the watchfaces correctly. So I stepped back to the way I discribed above with Total Commander and Amazfit.

It would be clearer if you sent a photo of the clock!

No^^ Stratos Wf = *.wfz // GTR wf = *.bin [ different format ]
