Connecting without Microsoft Health App

I've been tinkering with the microsoft band for a while and i'm trying to connect it to a raspberry pi 3 running android TV(couldn't find any Android phone images), now i've got most normal apps running on the rasp , the microsoft health app crashes when i start it.

Funny thing is though, the costum app i've made to track all the sensors stil gets data from the band when paired, but the band itself just: says "pairing succes! return to the microsoft health app to continue" So there has to be a way to bypass the app right?

So i'm trying to find a way to get the band linked to this device without the Health App. Or a way to get that app running on my Android image.

I got a logcat of the crash, but i'm not sure if that would be really usefull. Since i can't edit the microsoft health app itself ...right?

Reset the band. Pair the band to an android phone using health app. Unpair band from Android phone. Turn off Bluetooth on band. Turn on Bluetooth on rpi. Do a regular (not using health app) pairing the band and the rpi.
