Hi

I had seen this, they used the method of Denniss and Alexander. These are two methods that have allowed a firmware downgrade to bypass the address of the update server to a server hosting the old firmware named with a higher version to cause the application to believe that a new firmware version was to be updated

Anyone tried Darknessbot? The newest version let me set my max speed on my Kingsong at 35 km, but it should only allow 30 on the 14c. I'll give it a go with the mini tonight and see what happens. 

Haha, no that’s not how it works on the ninebot.

It says it is just an optical sensor that counts the wheel turns.

It may be used to control almost everything, no only the max speed, but the speed in each moment, the distance, etc, so I don't know what will happen if you remove them.

the most probable thing is that ninebot stops working (it should do, I presume)
