Thanks to a PR, we recently merged, Gadgetbridge 0.57.0 is the first release which supports the new Mi Band 6. We call support limited, since it does not yet support flashing the firmware or watchfaces and not everything is tested yet. But thanks to your donations we were able to order one, which will (once it arrives) enable us to test and improve device support!

This release also fixes flashing watchfaces on GTR2/GTS2 and probably other newer Huami devices, and adds support for flashing the new AGPS bundles which seem to be mandatory for GTR/GTS/GTR2/GTS2/Bip S with updated firmware versions. While you previously had to flash the GPS almanac and CEP files, with the new bundle format (UIHH), it is possible to flash all needed AGPS files in one go. To obtain the files, we recommend using huafetcher. If you want to play with alternative solutions, we also published code which packs UUIH AGPS bundles here.

Since Gadgetbridge 0.56.2 also was a huge release without blog post, we would like to mention the changes regarding the Fossil Hybrid HR in the last release!

Arjan Schrijver contributed two huge additions for the Fossil Hybrid HR: The possibility to reject incoming calls via SMS, a feature previously only available for the Pebble. Arjan also added support for syncing application icons to the watch - meaning that the watch will actually show a down-scaled gray-scale icon of any app (which looks fantastic for the Element app).

Thanks everyone for your contributions!
