On an android phone, follow this steps:
- put the phone in airplane mode
-activate Bluetooth
- install MakeCE res with Gadgetbridge
- install MekeCe fw with Gadgetbridge
- reset Bip
- put the phone in normal mod
- unpair Bip from MiFit, Gadgetbridge
- pair as new device

This is a downgrade, do at your own risk
Bip will be set on English also with official firmware

Or easier way :

Just unistall MiFit
Install Notify & fitness for amazfit (or the second app that does the same).
Just use it and it automatically switch to EN

Yes, I just realized notify & fitness for amazfit is the best option.

- put the phone in airplane mode

- install MekeCe fw with Gadgetbridge

Amazfit Firmware from Russian to English

Hello there.

I am working in a RES that I have converted already into English.

This RES is great because it lets you display icons and activities in FULL SCREEN maximizing the screen of our watch.

However, this RES needs a specific Firmware (.FW) because the offset and coordinates have to be changed in the firmware for the RES to be displayed at full screen.

I have it in my watch installed and it is perfectly working changing completely the appearance of the watch to a great and unique design, but the firmware is in RUSSIAN.

I have tried to translate the firmware using the tools in this forum, but i am lost and I do not know what to do..... I am not a developer and it seems very complex to me.

If you can help me to understand how to translate ( for dummies) or you help me with the translation, I will appreciated and I will share the full RES and a manual for you to update it.

See attached a few pictures as well as the .FW that I need to translate. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hello,
I can get all the way until the last step:
Gadgetbridge firmware update is giving error as trying to update firmware .res-file: "Problem with the firmware metadata transfer".

What should I do?

    Waiting for the official release of the English ROM, some developers have come to do in trying to translate the firmware and make it available to everyone. The first ROM was born in English and immediately after that in Italian (the main developer, being Italian, was expecting it). I want to thank @dpeddi to make 2 tools the first to extract image from the firmware and the second to automatically translate from chinese to others languages. You can find this 2 tools on Amazfit Bip's github page. To flash the Bip's firmware we will use Gadgetbridge App (thanks to Freeyourgadget team)

    HOW TO FLASH THE MODIFIED FIRMWARE
    - Download the zip package and extract it in a pc folder;
    - To flash a modified firmware you will need of mifit and gadgetbridge app;
    - Before proceeding with the flash, it's better if you update your Bip at the last version available through MiFit;
    - Now you must set your Bip like discoverable (or gadgebridge app will not find it);

    - Then open gadgetbridge app, give it all permissions needed, and sync your Bip with gadgetbridge app;
    Screenshot_2017-09-09-00-20-30.png

    - Now copy .fw and .res files on your phone and open them through a file manager like X-Plore or Es File Manager or others. You must select "FW/App installer" option like screen below;
    Screenshot_2017-09-09-00-21-11.png

    - Now click on install and wait the end of the process (it may take a few minutes);
    Screenshot_2017-09-09-00-21-17.png

    - You must do this update for both files (.fw and .res) better if you update before the .res and then the .fw;
    - Remember after you have updated the .fw the Bip will automatically rebooted, this will not happen when you update .res file;
    - When you finish the flash, you can uninstall gadgetbridge app and enjoy your new translated Bip :fingers-crossed:


    NEW LANGUAGE

    Official English support is here. All You need to do is update your mi fit app. Just follow instructions below

    1. Install mifit apk version 3.1.3 on a Android phone;

    2. Change the phone language to English;

    3. Use the mifit app to pair with the watch

    4. After synchronize the UI language on the watch will become English. 100% English.

    This update is currently only available for Android phones. The manufacture is still working on iOS. I will keep you update if there is any news.
    If you cannot find the update in GOOGLE PLAY, you can download from this site
