Is my Mi Band 4 bricked? - Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
to make it short, I have a Mi Band 4 since around 2 weeks and I was quiet pleased with it - until now :/
So the Band is locked down and only shows the message: Connect to Mi Fit and update. (There was a new update this week)
The thing is, my smartphone is not linked to the Band right now (it was before) and I'm not able to get a connection.
Mi Fit on the other hand tells me, that the linking failed and I should do a factory reset on the Band - the Band I can not control...
There seems to be nothing I can do with the app nor the Band itself to get the whole thing working again...
Any ideas?

Can you try and unpair the band from the app?

You could try pairing with this modified Mi Fit app. Not sure it'll help, but worth the try.
https://www.freemyband.com/2019/08/mi-band-4-auth-key.html

I had to reset my phone, that's how I lost the pairing.
Maybe the Band still thinks it's paired, but it's not :/
Tried the modded app and just like with the actual app, pairing gets instantly denied.
So the phone at least still finds the band
I've tried a different smartphone as well

When a Mi Band is "stuck", it is usually recommended to let the battery die (to force a reboot) and they try again. But that can take more than a month, battery life is insane.
I've just realized, that I already had a message "connect to mi fit and update" - when FW update process got interrupted. I couldn't do anything on the band and Mi Fit refused to connect to it (pairing was ok though). After I disabled and enabled Bluetooth on the phone, connection was established and FW upgrade luckily finished fine.
Do you have Mi Band paired in phone bluetooth settings? If yes, try to unpair it from there. If not, try to pair it You might try these steps as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iQuoSxm4Dk
The last resort would be probably a warranty replacement.

So to finish this topic, I would like to mention that I send it back and already got a new Band.
But thanks to everyone who tried to help me :good:
Everything I tried to pair the Band failed. Playing around in the Bluetooth settings, the Mi Fit app (even the modded one), Gadgetbridge and Mi Band Master. Nothing worked.
I even managed to drain the battery in two days, but that didn’t help either
My pro tip to drain the Mi Band 4 battery really fast:
Place it in your sink and make sure, that a drop of water hits the display every second or so.
This way the display will be activated and kept active for hours!

Happened to me too.. my band dead after the battery empty and can't boot again till now. Anyway i can turn it on again?

My mi band 4 is stuck on "pair first" and pretty much tried everything can get it connected or restarted. Any ideas what to do?

You'll need to be more specific, what exactly did you try and how it started?

Hi,
It started about two days ago while my son was playing with the mi band 4. I don't know how he did it and neither does he. As I stated earlier I can only see a green pairing logo inside a circle and at the bottom it states "Pair first" and secondly I can swipe down and and it shows me an orange shield logo with text saying "regulatory" under it, which in turn shows me logos of Europe and Russia and India etc. Besides this I cannot see or view anything else.
At this moment I am trying to drain the battery with water , by having it on slow drip.

SOLVED IT. My son reset the device to factory setting., so I managed to get it back by connecting it to MiFit app, but before I was trying to connect to it via direct Bluetooth.
Thanks for your help.

Hi i found a way to get your mi band 4 active again, you have to open mi fit and make a new band , then down in the menu and find update mi band (if your mi band don't work, turn the Bluetooth off and on again), in the update menu said that something is wrong, maybe firmware or resources, then you have to install notify for mi band and find update firmware on tools page, and download the firmware, resources and font, after this my mi band 4 activated again, i just make this xda account to tell my way to you, hope it works...

My Band 4 is also bricked the battery went flat but eventually it was able to be recharged. Now the Band is frozen and not pairing or synchronising with my phone any more and only displaying 2 screen views, one with a green circle with chinese writing and one with a orange shield with chinese writing which when tapped displays the CMIT ID. No matter how many swipes or taps it wont reset. How do I bring it back to life.

Also I same problem I only see the orange shield and the green key to synchronize, there is nothing else
The old phone broke! I don't know how to restore it!
If I try to pair it, it connects but gives an error and says to reset the bracelet to the factory data, but how do I do it?

Ciao,
È iniziato circa due giorni fa mentre mio figlio suonava con la mi band 4. Non so come abbia fatto e nemmeno lui. Come ho affermato prima, riesco a vedere solo un logo di abbinamento verde all'interno di un cerchio e in basso dice "Prima coppia" e in secondo luogo posso scorrere verso il basso e mi mostra un logo a scudo arancione con il testo che dice "normativo" sotto di esso, che a sua volta mi mostra i loghi dell'Europa e della Russia e dell'India ecc. Oltre a questo non riesco a vedere o vedere nient'altro.
In questo momento sto cercando di scaricare la batteria con acqua, facendola sgocciolare lentamente.

RISOLTO. Mio figlio ha ripristinato il dispositivo alle impostazioni di fabbrica, quindi sono riuscito a ripristinarlo collegandolo all'app MiFit, ma prima stavo provando a connettermi tramite Bluetooth diretto.
Grazie per l'aiuto.

How did you do?

After a long research I found the solution. The thing is that the band is stuck in Pair First screen, so it is impossible to do Factory Reset on it. On the other hand the Zepp Life APP (Mi Fit) do not pair to it saing that you shoud Unpair it first or do a factory reset. Then it is impossible to proceed even using a hammer to open the device. Until now!!!! The trick is that you have to create a new Mi Fit account on Zepp Life app but when it ask you witch country you live YOU MUST CHOOSE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES. Don´t use your real contry because it will not work. Good Luck!

GPS Navigator Quick Patch(Multi-language)

actully, it is a 50kB tiny software once came with official rom......working on wm6.
it have only a simple dialog. Auto-select Multi-language.(i see some resouse in Ita, Ger... ...)
Function:it downloads a 3-days global sattelites position data into your mobile, (use GPRS about 1kb), then in next 3 days, the navigator software(like tomtom) will get sattelites signal in 5 seconds!!! no matter how you shutdown or reboot.
i have no idea how it works, but it really works wonderful !!
After data downloaded, it can be exit (the data will still working), so it won't occupy any memory.
as i said in my other threads, my english sucks, and maybe something i am posting is a ages-old-news to others, but please dont laugh at me
Works great!!!!!!
Thanks.
Can you please clarify from which "official" WM6 rom you took that out from?
Hope you are not talking about MIO A701 and it wasn't placebo effect

it is from a Dopod (oem from HTC) simplify chinese and China Mobile Company oem software wm5 rom. Should exist in some other language rom but so far no further infomation about souce.Delivered too many times before i get it.
nothing Copyright&About info in this software, but it is very well designed and someone spend lots of time to make it good and with so many languages. although it is old, the server which it gets data from is still working fast and the satellite position data is uptodate every hour. so i guess it must come from something big, like HTC company or a global orgnization.
it is ok for you to doubt its effect (because i did too)
For example, if you usually need about 2 minutes to let navigator working after a cold-reboot. Install this software and update once, then do as many reboot as you want, however the navigator will take only 5 seconds to get satellites, except you are staying in house or you run the navigator after more than 3 days from you last update.
the compare result should be obvious, But i am glad if u tell me it is not working on yours, cause i cant figure out how it working.
no problem to install the log on my trinity, but the download of the satellite base is impossible by GPRS or wifi !
thanks.
does it download data via HSDPA?
Just tried this on my Trinity. Installs fine and downloads ephemeris data via ActiveSync fine but doesn’t appear to decrease TTFF…
There’s been plenty of banter around why A-GPS (whether it’s from your carrier or pre-downloaded) won’t work with the Trinity driver for the GPSOne QualComm chip, but I thought I would try anyway. Love to be proven wrong
download ok after a soft reset.
but in TomTom, no change; so don't work on (my) trinity ...
Hi,i think like quickgps that is a placebo effect with qualcomm
installs and downloads the ephemeris file fine.
Not sure it actually doing anything- as posted by numerous other folks.
Even so, it was a very good price ;-)
this morning i tried once more, and it takes 30 seconds, didn't works as good as yesterday. but still faster then normal.
i believe the reginal setting should be setted to real location.

for me it's work fine : I've just instal and try it with TomTom. It take 20sec to do the cold first fix. If it's a placebo it's a good one!
My usually cold first fix was in 1 or 2 min.
ps : I use UDK WM6. Gps settings : com9, 57600baud / TomTom settings : other NMEA GPS, COM9, 57600baud
My S300+ is now as fast as my old MioA701.
Does not seem to work on my Trinity here in the UK,
still takes for ever to get a fix.
Guys, I don't want to pour cold water on to your dreams - but this cab is for Mio, presumably A700/A701 that contains a SiRF-III chip. This would be useful to P3300 aka Artemis - but should have no effect on those Qualcomm chips.
If someone do get the version from Kaiser working on Trinity, I'm more than happy to know
Just installed, downloaded satellite file.
Did a very very cold fix (a few months without launching TomTom) : took 5 min to fix.
My 2 cents : definitely placebo effect
SeeGSEE
I tried to use this on my P3300 for a couple of weeks and it never worked. Gave me some error about network connection not made. I just uninstalled it and went back to using the Quick GPS Fix file that redirects the DL from different servers (unknown) from HTC's. Don't know how effective it is but it downloads at least.

after i dowload the file i close quick gps...then before start tomtom i have to start quick GPS? quickGPS no need run in background? i start quick gps only for download file?
ITA
una volta scaricato il file, prima di avviare tomtom devo avviare sempre quick GPS? oppure non serve avviare quick GPS? va avviato solo per il download? non necessita sia in background?

[Q] Call drop problem

Hi everyone, i'm new in this forum.
I am writing to you for a problem with my galaxy nexus (update to the last versione stock rom):
It often happens that during a call, it closes by itself for no reason. No error appears, nor anything in particular that you show. Only the call closes by itself. it happens again if I do a call back after a few minutes or even a few seconds, this closes.
Se provo un'altra volta la chiamata non si blocca più e continua fluida come dovrebbe, senza uno schema.
What could it be? hardware or software problem?
thanks to all in advance,
Daniele.

There is a little known SIM-card setting that tells your phone if it should prefer GSM / calls or data if it can't get both.
You might want to try to disable mobile data for some calls to check this. Call your operator if it happens more often if data is on. They can change the setting on a per SIM basis. (This setting is swapped e.g. for "data" SIMs)

I have the Mi Band and i used it with MIUI ROM on my old phone. And on my OPX with OOS, FLYME, CM 12.1 and H2OS. On OPX any ROM I could not make app notifs vibration to work. It counts steps, sleep, vibrates when you get a call and vibrates for alarm it you set it in the app. Smart lock worked i think only on CM. Maybe works in OOS too. But on the previous phone on MIUI the smart unlock was muuuch better. I had to get the band close to the phone to unlock it (under 10cm maybe less).
So in conclusion it works fine but when we get MIUI for OPX it will be slightly better.
Cheers!
Unlock feature with bluetooth device is the feature of the new Android itself. It's called Smart lock and it should have every android smartphone with Lollipop or higher .-)
You have to use a pin or code and after you can use smart lock ,for notification you have to launch the app and you don't have to kill it (sorry for my bed english ?)

Hi,
How did you set the mi band to unlock the phone? My band is connected, I can view info, get vibrations on call, etc. I have a pattern lock. When I go the smart lock section, I get a pattern lock which I unlock using the set pattern. After that I tap on Trusted devices, then Add trusted device but the mi band doesn't show up in the list. Am I doing it the correct way?

Well I had problem adding the Mi band to trusted devices to use the smart unlock feature.
This trick (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXiOdXLrV_8 ), or rather a version of it which is described in one of the comments, did it for me.
1. Try pairing it with the bluetooth.
2. If it fails to detect the band, then put the phone in aeroplane mode.
3. Switch on bluetooth and try connecting the band.
4. If it gets connected, fine. Otherwise, come out of the aeroplane mode.
5. Turn bluetooth off. Turn it on again after a 20 seconds.
6. Try connecting now.
7. If it works, fine. Otherwise repeat from Step 2. OR Try other variations.
Hope it helps.
My wife uses her OPX with MI band . I recommend this app:

vastly better than the bogstandard one.

Lg G7 Think drop calls

hello everyone I have a problem with a new lg g7 that I have always kept as a backup device for my girlfriend. When her LG fell and broke, I replaced her phone with a new one. It has worked correctly for several weeks and now it does a very strange thing: the navigation works, but it does not receive calls and cannot send them. The strange thing is that the signal levels between the two phones are identical but one works and the other doesn't. I read about a similar problem on lg g7 solved by updating the google app but with mine it doesn't work. Strangely, if I put the sim in the other g7 it works but on the new one it doesn't. Just like when the problem was google's fault but I can't solve it. I also thought of trying to put a no brand firmware on the new g7 but I would not want to create problems on the phone since it is branded tim. In case of debrandization, if I put the phone back with the original firmware, does it return exactly as before or could I have some problems? Thanks and everyone and sorry if I wrote a lot.
