FW Mod English Firmware 2.4.0.32 / 1.8.0.34 (Fine Font) | Mi Band 3 & Mi Band 3 NFC

[rendal]

Ok thank you! Also I'm sorry, I had the model wrong. I originally flashed Wuhan but it would not flash because my device was actually hanoku, so that is what I have now. Sorry I totally forgot to tell you this! And no problem on the time, I really appreciate your hard work. Also the firmware I used is fake version too, not sure if that matters.

Edit: I just tried the res file, and my mi band says connect to app to update. It didn't seem to work even though you said it was compatible.

This Resources does not support a "fake" version of firmware. You must use the firmware with the standard version. The "fake" version blocks unwanted automatic Firmware updates.

Hi! It seems like whichever firmware I flash into my MB3, it always shows dots for the dates. I want to use slash.

EDIT: Sorry. Now I see it's a known issue.

 

[ivan0kurnia]

Okay, now I am having another issue. Whenever there is more than one notification in the list, the text looks like this:

[fujanto]

Hello .. I was using the 2.3.0.6 UTF-8, thus current fw 9.9.9.9(prevent updates) however the resources res 2.3.0.6 werent prevent the mifit to updates.
Kindly fixes the res file to prevent mifit updates., Ie res 2.3.0.6 to 9.9.9.9

Thanks you for your good works.

How it looks? Still Chinese letters? This Firmware does not support special letters. For special letters, you must install UTF-8-enabled firmware, such as EN with UTF-8 support here Firmware 2.3.0.6 | Bold Font (EN, CZ, SK, PL, HU, TR) | Xiaomi Mi Band 3 | GeekDoing
Specifically, the Bond Font EN firmware with UTF-8: Mili_wuhan_2.3.0.6_mod-v03_bold_EN.zip

Is there any custom firmware which makes the band vibrate when it disconnects from the phone?

 

[rendal]

Is there any custom firmware which makes the band vibrate when it disconnects from the phone?

Yes, it exists, but only in an older version of the firmware and only on 4pda.ru in the Russian language version.
I also plan to implement this feature and more.

 

[piyushtwri]

Yes, it exists, but only in an older version of the firmware and only on 4pda.ru in the Russian language version.
I also plan to implement this feature and more.

Thank you very much even for planning of implementation. I have already lost two of my phones on different occasions just that feature would have saved mine.
And yes job notifications are also very important i wouldn't miss if that feature was there.

 

[Diwakarm577]

I do not understand your question? Try to write a different question.

Please increase then maximum number of notifications limit

 

[rendal]

Please increase then maximum number of notifications limit

16 announcements are not enough for you?
Unfortunately, more notifications are not planned.
It is not user-friendly and the number of notifications limits the capacity of RAM for use by the microcontroller. Notifications are stored in RAM.
