I'm from Sri Lanka and my country is not in the region list of mi band 8 global version. So I tried to pair it with China or India but neither didn't work. So I tried pairing it with Argentina (the first country in that list); and it worked. Hope this helps to anyone having trouble with pairing.
Thankyou so much! My brother bought Mi Band 8 from Dubai and brought it to India. I was fed up of trying to pair it with my Redmi Note 12. Rebooted, Resetted, Restarted it but nothing happened. Hopefully found this video and changed the region to United Arab Emirates from India and it got paired successfully. Thanks alot. God bless you!
Thanks, I had this problem since I changed the region to my home country. didn't knew it was the cause of sudden disconnect. it works after I change the region to China. one note though, I had to forget bluetooth device from phone to able to connect again, if not it would stuck in try again.
Thank you for this video. Has your band 8 ever done those thing where it sends a notification that it’s not being worn correctly despite you’re wearing it properly especially when you want to check your heart pressure? Or when you’re running on a treadmill, and from anaerobic it goes to light, despite you’re maintaining the same speed on the treadmill??
@@SMARTWATCH_SERIES does that always work? I had to recently reset mine and come back to your video on how pair it with the app. Did the band 7 ever do that?
Hi. My Bluetooth in Samsung Galaxy A6 is on i cant find on search list device Smart band 8. My previous smart band6 is at list. The Mi Fitness App find and sync band8 but not the Google Fit. How smart band 8 will appear at Bluetooth list
I am not able to pair and the app instructions says only if phone region is set to china and app region is set to china, the pairing works. In my phone location settings, i dont have china country itself. Any idea how to resolve this. Which version of mi fitness app are you using ?
@@SMARTWATCH_SERIES I am having the latest version which i downloaded after scanning the QR code in the band ..3.24.2 is the version that got downloaded
For iPhone users who do not accept the agreements: Change the Dark theme to the light theme from Screen and Brightness. You can then enter the application and accept.
Alternative solution for Pakistanis: Connect from Bluetooth First. Then go to app, if you've already selected China like me and was already using Mi band watch and now want to add another. Then select Taiwan China. A different region and it's good to go. You'll be paired immediately.
Mine still doesn't work. I tried keeping it charged, wifi on, forget device and try to reconnect, change location and it still doesn't work. What else can I do?
i also cant pair it when i choose China region, then yes i can see the watch and when i hit the Xiaomi smart band it popping up "Update this app first" i already have the latest, so im stuck
No you can't, just change the language on the device and you're good to go. When the global model is available on the app you can re-setup the Band with your country of origin. Don't worry you won't loose your data.
@@SMARTWATCH_SERIES And how can i change the language from chinese to english if i cant read a single line of chinese?, because now my watch is all on chinese and i dont know how to change it back to english
Please dont buy Band8 unless you are in staying in china. Outside china you cant connect the band to your app and the band becomes useless. I wasted the money buying this after seeing videos like these from few youtubers that it would work outside china as well.

Yeah I have noticed that a couple of times and that's one of the inconsistencies of the Band. What I do is re-adjust it

Thank you!
I accidentally reseted my mi band 8 pro and it is not connecting after that. even this method is no working
Same bro 😭😭
Something like this happened to me, I will advice
1. Reseting the Band
2. Turn off and turn back on bluetooth
3. Close and reopen the band
what about the zepp life app?
It is the same
Alternative solution for Pakistanis: Connect from Bluetooth First. Then go to app, if you've already selected China like me and was already using Mi band watch and now want to add another.
Then select Taiwan China. A different region and it's good to go.
You'll be paired immediately.
Thanks brother 🎉
Thanks!
If you are still struggling with connecting it. You may try to put "Singapore" as region.
Thanks for the tip
Mine still doesn't work. I tried keeping it charged, wifi on, forget device and try to reconnect, change location and it still doesn't work. What else can I do?
Clear cache for the app, that might help
Do you have to keep the Region set to China in the app at all times then ? Because as soon as you change it to your region the band disappears.
Unfortunately, yeah, the region must remain in China as long as you won the Chinese version of the band
So how about the language?
I tried this but still it’s not showing in my Bluetooth list , can it be some other issue ?
Close the app and reopen it, also restart the Band, keep going that and it will show up and then you can go ahead and pair the Band to your phone.
i also cant pair it
when i choose China region, then yes i can see the watch and when i hit the Xiaomi smart band it popping up "Update this app first"
i already have the latest, so im stuck
Please restart the band and try again
Men you rock
thx!
omg tysm this saved me!!!
My band 8 is stuck on qr screen and not showing prompt when i pair it even though it says its connected. Any fix??
Please restart the band
thank you i still cannot, maybe waiting 2-3 days
That shouldn't be, please follow the instructions
Thank you man!
Happy to help!
Thanks it worked!
Tq❤
🤝
Thanks man. 🤗
Any time!
Bro my band is connected but not getting paired what to do
Restart the band, and also turn off and turn on Bluetooth on your phone
Even though i changed the region to china still its not pairing or detect the device. Im from the Philippines.
Please try rebooting your band, and try again
Mine is still not working i have launched the app changed the region.. the watch has not been launched in india
After changing region, close the app and reopen it again
Then also its not working.... 😢
mines still not paired even after following these steps.. it still doesnt show up on my phone
Restart the band
Why this video has so little views? Thanks.
That's what the algorithm thinks
Me is not working I now waiting for 3 days 😢
Please try restarting your phone
It also helped me to pair, but now I cannot change the language from Chinese to English.
Does anyone know how to solve this?

It's unfortunate

You will lose all your data from other regions.
You won't. Once you login to your Mi account you should see all your tracked data.
Thanks!
thanks mate
