Onewheel XR Haptic Buzz: DEATH 💀 of nRF and DigiTilt?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Do we lose Digitilt and nRF when we sacrifice this CLASSIC 4209 Onewheel XR to update it with the new Haptic Buzz firmware? We're testing if it kills NRF and DigiTilt, and we're crossing our fingers that it doesn't! Stay tuned to see if this update is a game changer - don't forget to subscribe!
Love you guys. Jeff, you should do a video on how to vesc your xr. I think it would benefit the xr community a lot. Thanks float on
Imagine if FM actually TOLD us what the update will do to our boards, that would be wild… But they’d never be open and honest with us.
ikr
That's why I moved to Floatwheel
agreed - would be nice to view a completely detailed firmware list of all updates, changes, improvements with explanations
FM to FloaTWheel FTW !!!

Thank you so much for this! I'm still just using OWCE to check battery status and change ride modes until I VESC tho
I threw caution to the wind and said F it and hit update for my
4012 and hopped in the shower, updated without bricking and went for a rip on delirium, pushed it harder than i usually do and couldn’t make it sing(I’m a lazy road cruiser) so I switched to sequoia to see if it actually makes noise and sure enough it will make a fun bzzz-bzzz when pushed past the limits. For my style of riding I can maybe have some extra confidence that I’m not riding beyond the board, I’m 240lbs and pushback is hard to decipher.
Someone needs to test large battery mods and also whether Rewheel still works.
Was walking somebody through attempting to flash firmware on a 4165 yesterday and ReWheel wouldn't connect. Need to confirm myself as well, but it's not a positive sign. That said, ReWheel would really only come in handy for reverting to older firmware on some XRs. There are no firmware customizations available.
@@fixmypev it's strange that XR doesn't have any customizations. There are very few firmware differences between the Pint and the XR. I think the only reason is that the Rewheel developers don't have an XR to play with. All of the same customizations should port to the XR without much effort.
@@maddmikemu someone should send them an xr!
@@maddmikemu Absolutely, the official shutdown of the ReWheel project created a major roadblock to progress. It's a combination of both the inability to provide ongoing support from the original developers and the potential legal risks that deter any further exploration. Without a dedicated team and the necessary resources, the customization possibilities for the XR (and even the Pint X) remain limited. It's a challenging situation given the potential benefits that could have been unlocked with continued development.
For real. This is the truth!!
Thanks for your input, Im also rocking my new wheel i got from you guys and I love my Float black and green/yellow jacket, i wear it at my morning job everyday that i ride to. Im the guy who has the Back to the Future style XR board if i had popped by with it. Ill be back shopping again for sure!
I updated my xr firmware.xr with a jwchip and jwxr battery. I was nervous but figured I would convert it to a vesc as well if things didn’t work out. Updated no problem .
Have you tried to ride the full range? Previous XR 4162 firmware did not allow more than 7ah of usage and your JWXR battery is 10.5ah.
Curious myself also. Did it effect range?
Chi battery is confirming that the update acts like the previous 4162 XR firmware and limits the battery capacity to stock range.
My jw battery in a 4212 xr running Gemini 4165 And a FFM chip and I have seen no change in my average battery range
Way to take one for the team!
Here's something interesting...Pre-4210 boards only request the firmware update (encryptedfw4165.bin) while 4210+ boards request the firmware update as well as a new bootloader (encryptedfwV6.bin). So far, this doesn't seem to cause any known differences in the way 4165 operates for different version XRs, but it's worth noting. Seems to be a way for the older and newer XRs to all run the same firmware...which makes me wonder if we could potentially make use of that bootloader to allow us to install older firmware on 4210+ boards... (this would only be possible if the bootloader doesn't block access to ReWheel). Food for thought. 💡
The IMU changed with 4210, so that is one thing that prevents it from running 4134. I remember someone got 4134 loaded onto their 4210 and it thought it was upside down. But maybe all they needed to do was run the nRF tilt to recalibrate that...
Really hope an XR to to be,rewheeled at least get a taste before you vesc haha
I am so interested in if this will work!! I hope someone figures out if it will! 💯
I'm curious if my 4212 with an owie chip will be affected??
@@matix10104 I wouldn't recommend trying to find out. There's no genuine benefit gained in your position. Unless you want Haptic Buzz that badly.
Hopefully we'll see you soon testing the most expensive onewheel of the last video
Thank god. I updated without thinking.
can you do a how to vesc series please🙏
I wanna see a video where you update a CBXR, and then ride it. Let's say a 4211 or 4212. IF you can please do.
No way would I get this. Nope, no thanks, nada. Thanks Jeff! Srsly, was truly worried.
Is it possible then to reflash the old firmware if you update and don't like the buzz? Thank you for the sacrifice, btw
I think its not and that was his concern about update or not int this video.
Thanks, personally I'm happy to get HB, but was worried about battery upgrades.
Still haven’t heard an XR haptic buzz happen
What did you use to set the tilt? The process i learned is way more complicated than that.
Thanks, Jeff!
Are you guys going to sell fully built vesc boards? I'd jump on that!

I'm in!!
I just did the update and now I miss all of the diagnosis it show before
Shoot, what you doing with the controller and bms?
vesc is the best update ;D
Imagine a company rolling out a firmware update and nerfing your board
Dang, how many Onewheels do you have connected to your OneWheel app? I assume the wheels are shared, so how does that effect the odometer reading in the app? Just curious. Thank you.
Just went to ride after months of not being able to. I had no clue about this software update….i did the update so I could see why my board was not turning on.
My 4209 with a CBXR chi battery is no longer working….it won’t turn on unless it’s plugged in and I get an error 16 code. Then nothing, the board is a brick now…😢
more floatwheel videos please
was kinda pumped about keeping CBXR stock FM controller around just to have not anymore Vesc everything it is then 🤣
Hey Jeff, Did you lose the ability to see the Cells in OWCE? Thanks for the updates 🤙
Jeff the previous XR 4162 firmware doesn't allow larger battery mods such as CBXR or VnR to use more than 7ah, so just a little more than stock battery range.
I seriously doubt FM would take away their latest error 23 limiting battery to 7ah, so if this 4165 XR firmware acts like the 4162 firmware it is not safe to update if you are using a battery mod or a chip. Even the older 4209 hardware gets updated to the same 4165 firmware as the latest XR hardware, so the old hardware version isn't going to help with battery mods.
Yes, this remains untested (that I'm aware of) but you're probably right
@jeff willing to test a 4212 cbxr chipped too, before vescing it ?
We are a lot to wonder how it would go …
Happy monday guys ! I just ordered WTF rails and Im still using my stock BMS and battery. when i install the rails will I need to do anything like recalibrating the board or can i just install and go ride ?
I love kombucha 😂 I actually love it plan @ room temperature 😏 everyone calls me crazy but I think of it as the natural holy grail 😉👊
So if I downloaded the update before doing the level tilt app im stuck with the stock gt rails now, right?
Would you say that the update would still be avail although my board has a CBXR battery?
Mines not working anymore, my friends a onewheel doctor and he said I need to get a new BMS and get a stock battery and that might fix my 4209
@@dariuslee2413 man that sucks. Mine actually took the update like a champ but riding with the Haptic Buzz is something else .
Hope you get to Vesc your board soon brother
Float on
Downloaded the new update, foot pad light was staying yellow (but that may be due to a new pair of shoes). When I went up a steep hill I got error 23 incompatible Hardware which is odd as this pint has never been craked. Any thoughts???
Shoot! I got the message on my iPhone app about this update. It was trying to update the firmware while I was on the board without even asking! 🤯🤯🤯 fortunately, it failed in the middle of it, so I closed the OW app, cancelled automatic updates of the app, but I guess it’s too late and every time I’m gonna open the app, it’s gonna try to update the firmware of my board! 🤬
How can I continue to use the onewheel app but NOT get this firmware update on my XR???
Please help 🙏🙏🙏
You cannot continue to use the official app and skip the update
Turn off mobile data usage for the app and turn off wifi
@@Slirp07what Jamie sed
I haven't connected my XR to the app yet, out of fear of the update. If I do, will it allow me to ride and change ride modes or am i basically stuck with whatever setting is currently has?
I didn’t get the update for some reason. I have a 4209 board. Feeling like VESC is the way forward anyway.
Paranoid thought: just because they haven’t broken a feature today doesnt mean they wont tomorrow. Trust no one. 👽
I order some wtfs for my GT and I have the new firmware, so am I not gonna be able to nrf it? And if not will it still feel okay or will it feel weird?
wahoo good news ❤
Still haven't updated my 2020 XR lol. I have to wear my android watch to read my XR app info HAHA
The XR+ Doesn't even have the hardware to haptic buzz right?
Thank you Jeff, great test. Is there a way to digitilt the Onewheel GT too?
There was until FM decided to kill it :(
@@TheFloatLife I used to use em too. Great app for sure. I wonder if the developer can make a work around for future update.
People saying buzz isn’t bad are lying. It’s so annoying, I only updated because I got a FW. I’m considering reverting
Is there a good way to revert? I sa fix my pev's video, and he said he had a previous backup of his firmware from before the update. Is that the only way you think? Cause I definitely don't have a backup😂😔
I agree with you. I really dislike the buzz. I might like it if we could set it to different levels of speed, and intensity
@@skyguyriver Nope. Not the only way. 😉
I don't experience any buzz during my regular usage (commute) except for very brief moments (going up a ramp too quickly), so I do appreciate it as a safety feature.
That's on a Pint X though (and on pavement).
On a regular Pint it would go off all the time (my personal preferred speed is around Pint's top speed), so would probably even annoy the f outta a slowpoke like me.
(Both my regular Pints have dead BMS, so that's preventing me from finding out 😂)
Point is, there *are* users and use cases where it's *not* bad.
Generally speaking it is bad of course, because it can't be disabled or adjusted, so it will be a constant PITA to those riding top speed, offroad, etc.
Also: since there is a very obvious buzz now, *why can't we disable pushback* (which can become a *hazard* when going downhill or maneuvering)???
Can you upgrade a 4212 I am looking to buy one, but not sure if I should just buy a GT or FW
If I have Dubs and a tilt kit, will the update affect me at all?
does it brick a cbxr board do we know?
Also need to know
The pint with the quart upgrades didnt brick, but they did lose the additional range. I imagine the CBXR will be the same
May have to cycle off and on on a ride.. ive had to do this in s few instances lately with a cbxr and also carrying a cbxr and byob on a regular board.. field charging i had to double cycle the other day for it to read the battery properly immediately after a field charge from the byob and external cbxr
@@TheCobaltsaberso pint with quart after update does not brick? Thx, dont have the chip
Am i correct in saying nrf connect is disabled for gt with the latest firmware?
Yes
Can you still see individual cell voltages?
wait so what other apps can xr users use to check battery life?
OWCE
Sounds like we did lose individual cell voltage in OWCE though
Got an older 4209 with a cbxr and no chip. The update popped up and I freaked out. Deleted the app real quick lmao.
Its a sign that you support the right company 😅
I have the same set up. I'm afraid to even open my app, but does that mean you can't change ride modes anymore?
@@theob1712you can still do it on the OWCE app or manually turning your board on its side. Plenty of videos on how to do that.
@@theob1712if youre on iPhone you can disable internet before opening it, or even make a Shortcut to automate launching it
Mine is different bms and original battery. Haptic buzz update works. Just don’t know about cbxr jwxr battery’s…. 🤔
That should also work, someone mentioned it in the comments.
Vesc is tha way
Updated mine and now the pushback is insane. I hate it.
Just updated my XR and tried to test it but its tricky...I usually go ~14...15mph....i pushed to 16 and nothing...I am afraid about dont feel/hear the new thing and nosedive lol...how obvious is the haptic feedback...do you clearly feel it or is subtle enough to miss it?
It's obvious. Switch to Sequoia and you'll get buzzing at 14 mph. I've only had my XR for about a month and was using Cruz as my default but started getting haptic buzz especially going uphill or downhill so I've had to move to Mission and it's been fine. Only get buzz when trying to get up my driveway which is really steep and at the limit of what my XR can do.
@@radben951 good idea! I will switch mode to test it. THANKS!!
I did 2000 miles in one year LOL. I had two big crashes the first month. first an unexpected bump in the night literally watching the moon...I flew and broke my right writst....3 weeks later an unexpected crack the street. No broken bones but a lot of scraped skin. A LOT :) I was using Delirium. Its the most aggresive mode but not the safest...after that I switched to mission and my ride changed forever.
Also, they took ALL the extra numbers and angles in the diagnostic page.. why?
They don’t want you to have access to information because it’s scary and dangerous
Because **** you thats why
Where do i get that app
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Another one of our species "tip of the spear" 🤣
People want to know if the update will mess up a cbxr battery
It hasn't been 100% confirmed, but we believe it will not break the board, but it will reduce your range to stock
@@TheFloatLife 😂
Thank ya Jeff! Unfortunately I don’t see why they couldn’t just force an update that prevents the nrf from working, but for now it won’t and that’s sick. Vesc is the way
Guys any one updated the firmware on a 4212 with owie chip and a CBXR? Much appreciated. 🤙🏼
Talk to me about this tire on the shelf behind you.
Pioneer
Now we know... I don't know
My xr has no buzz, but when it gets to 25% it plays the sound bite from tgeir safety vieeo "hAPTIC buzz is a feature that " blah blah.. its better than it buzzing
they should add a test buzz button to actually know what is it about without pushing the limit.
I have a 4212 XR with a JWFFM chip and battery and am worried that it will have problems if I update it. Does anyone here know what happens if you do this with a board with my specs? I can still see the battery % in the widget but I really miss tracking my ride mileage and my lifetime miles :(
What happens if you delete the OW all, download again, put flight mode on, turn BT on and run the app? Does it tell you to update the FW?
There are also other comments with your question and someone has been successful with update.
I will try this, this week and see what I find
Following. Im curious about this also.
So if I update my re wheeled GT it won't brick it?
Don't, this is a video on the xr not the gt
I'm aware that this is an XR. Just wondering about GT seeing this isn't about the GT.
what app is that? my nRf app doesn't look like that
following
OWDT
Im still just gonna continue to use onewheel community edition
I downloaded an old version of the onewheel app (android only) definitely don't want my board buzzing at 25mph thanks
Technically with an XR it's supposed to buzz at like 16 miles an hour
16mph?!! WTF?!! Why not little wheels on the sides for balance also, like in 2 years old on a bike?!
@@TheFloatLife that's gross, don't want everyone around me to ask why my board is now making a weird noise
@@NIGHTWHEEL... Don't worry, with 16 miles no one is "around" you. Literally everyone is in front of you and gaining.
any way to not update this? i turned off my updates but a fucking android update screwed all my dont update settings wtf
Why the Onewheel is so big?
Why the big is so onewheel?
Vesc all da boards 😛
I have over 700 miles on my XR.. I think the update was forced on future motion and unnecessary.. some people just shouldn’t ride onewheels
Does it do it on the gt??
It disables nRF on the GT which is lame
@@TheFloatLife Yeah thats what I thought. So once you update your gt, there's no way to digitally level it outside the onewheel app?
Had to update my XR last night. After the update gave me an error 16. Rebooted the board it went away. Took the board out for a ride push "my" limits didn't notice any buzz. Maybe it's my imagination it seems to deliver power better.
Please consider posting with digitilt is..
lol same here...tried to push limits to buzz it but buzz was not there. Maybe I ride in a safe zone but its hard to test because nobody wants to nosedive to see if is working
I agree, my board is riding smoother more quiet than before the update. Got up to 17 with no buzz. I didn't wanna go further as I'm still recovering from a 26mph nosedive a few weeks ago.
@@bretley361 Welcome to the club :) there are two kind of onewheelers: those who nosedived and those who will nosedive
The update bricked my board 😭😭😭
Does Digi Tilt/rewheel on the GT still works after the update????
nope. FM killed it
My GT feels super nerfed and way less torquey after haptic buzz it’s wacko
Yeah, I believe it
The onewheel has ZERO safety
so does almost all ski sports.
The main safety feature is between your ears 😂
All that hate lol 😂
Debating doing my non cbxr board for shits and gigs.
Force you to do something(update)? Sounds like communisum. Stay poor vote democRAT.
Sell me the controller from this board please! My board (4208) just had the OW999999 error
I still don't see the update on my XR for some reason.
Good for you man! I just got it. I should have stopped the automated updates in the settings of the iPhone> App Store app.
Everyone with the name Patrick doesn't get it.
