My mi fit can connect to mi band 3 but when I try to connect my mi ban it cant. Someone can help me
Okey, GadgetBridge is still experimental so do the following:
1. Restart phone before every try.
2. Set MiBand 3 to discoverable in Mi Fit app.
3. Allow MiBand 3 to receive calls, (this opens lane for data communication)
4. As final measure, use other phone/tablet for rom flashing.

P.S. Can you connect via MiFit app? What Android version do you use? Is it custom rom? Rooted?

Ok, uninstall GadgetBridge and download newest and install it (disable automatic start in menu)
Delete Mi Band from your bluetooth devices
Uninstall and reinstall Mi Fit and register mi band 3
Allow all permisions to Mi fit (location, calls and notifications)
Set call receiving on your Mi Band 3 (this connects mifit and band)
Set mi band 3 discoverable
Now open GadgetBridge click + and click on MiBand3.
After you click mi band 3 it will open new window, do not touch a thing go back
GG you got your mi band connected

In my environment, Mi fit and Gadget Bridge could not coexist.
Specifically, with Mi Fit installed on the phone, it was not possible to connect or update MB3's firmware with GadgetBridge.
Gadgetbridge shows that it is connected, but the mark of the band is displayed in gray, and it was impossible to update even if opened the fw file.
Once disable Mi Fit and restart gadgetbridge, the mark of the band becomes blue and the firmware can be updated.

I normally disable the gadget bridge, and when changing the firmware, disable Mi fit and activate the gadget bridge.
I'm glad if you can use it as a reference.
