How to install Custom Watchface ?

(At your own risk... We aren't responsible for bricked devices and we won't help in case of other problems)


Mi Fit
⤳ In Mi Fit Application go in "Profile" -> "Mi Smart Band 5" -> "Store".
⤳ In "Store" tab tap on a Watchface.
Disable Bluetooth.
⤳ Tap on "Sync watch face" button.
⤳ Open your Files Application and go in "Android" -> "data" -> "com.xiaomi.hm.health" -> "files" -> "watch_skin_local" -> "58" (if you have an Mi Band 5 CN NFC, else "59" if you have an Mi Band 5 CN/Global).
⤳ Open the Watchface folder (for me "3twFUMCxR5hTSN2f00GPgszD2xzOfz01MU6QlONk") and replace the .bin file by your Custom Watchface (don't forget to rename it like the Official Watchface .bin file, for me "3twFUMCxR5hTSN2f00GPgszD2xzOfz01MU6QlONk.bin" !).
Enable Bluetooth.
⤳ Return in Mi Fit Application and go again in "Profile" -> "Mi Smart Band 5" -> "Store".
⤳ In "Manager" tab tap on Watchface previously downloaded then on "Sync watch face" button.
Be happy 😊 !

How can I install the watchfaces without re-writing the existing files? How can I make my custom folder name without those encrypted numbers?
