HermanTheGerman Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Strange. So one can only upgrade if he accidentally meets the server, when it is "open" ? Strange behaviour. So it looks I was lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me some tries on different days to upgrade vom1.02 to 1.05. also some tries on the day it worked... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volker Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I tried updating for about three weeks, suddently on Monday 6pm I succeed ? It takes about 5minutes. Updated my KS16S from 1.0 to 1.05 the wheel feels a bit smoother... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoberAce Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 another thing that I noticed is that is more easy maintain cruising speed without speed limit jumps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circuitmage Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 So, a bit more checking and I understand now...there was supposed to be a 1.48 release, as announced on FB, but people cannot download that (I tried also), so it looks like their whole FW update process is messed up. Will need to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrelwood Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Been trying for hours and hours since yesterday with my dads previous Android phone (app v.1.47), and I already got to tap "OK" to update, but the update never started. The "new version" turned to 0.00 right then, so I guess I just barely lost the server. Been following the guide from previous page. Today I've only been getting an error "Synchronous distance failed, please check connecting". Since I haven't got a slightest what it even tries to mean, I suspect it is from the app and not from Android, which I'm using for the first time. Anybody else getting this? I saw the new InMotion app today. I am hysterigiggling in my flabbergasteechless. How can two apps for two similar products, just how is it possible that, so inconcievably, just two apps, that the other can be such indescribeably just ... excisting. Like that. Night and oranges difference. No, more than that. Oh, nevermind. No wordslessnesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yasbean Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I have been getting the "Synchronous distance failed, please check connecting" message, too, but it never seemed to affect me. I can not understand what it means, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since getting the wheel to upgrade at all seems to take days and days of repeated trying. the behavior of 1.04 (1.05 is the same) is that it accelerates and brakes slower, in a more progressive way, they have eliminated in a certain way a little the sporty character of the wheel. The pedals of the wheel have hardened, now they are harder, it remains more straight, but it is difficult to perform radical zig zag. It's safer, less in braking, because you need more space, but less fun, I do not like it. My personal recommendation if you come from version 1.03 or lower is ? Don't Update!

What do you mean exactly? Quote The pedals of the wheel have hardened, now they are harder, it remains more straight Do you feel this on all riding modes? A few people on page 1 of this thread mentioned noticeably more torque especially riding upgill, and softer pedals. Completely opposite of what you describe.

I mean exactly this, accelerate and brakes more progressive with 1.05, I don't know why @HermanTheGerman see a behaviour completely different than mine, is very opposite to my point of view tonight I going to make a test review with a friend of mine, with his Kingsong with 1.02 and mine 1.05, stay tunned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circuitmage Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 @RoberAce Thanks for the post, good review. I look forward to the 1.20 vs 1.05 comparison. I will hold off on upgrading from 1.03 for now, I do like my acceleration. They should at least have kept if for the advanced riding mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you test both hard and medium modes, as that might be the key to opposite opinions. The hard mode seems now to be harder and the medium mode softer. That would make the hard mode more difficult to accelerate fast, as it doesn’t let you lean. A softer medium mode would let the rider lean more before accelerating, making it easier to accelerate fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riding in the hardest setting can make it harder to accelerate and brake if the pedals stay "more" upright. You need to put more pressure to cause a tilt that the device detects, and thus it may seem it accelerates or decelerates slower than earlier. I used to ride in the hardest mode (well, on Firewheel there were only two modes and the "soft"-mode was WAAAAYY too soft), but I currently use the medium-mode on the KS16S and KS16B, as I found out it's 1) not too soft and, more importantly, 2) makes it a lot easier to accelerate going up hill. Try with the medium mode if it feels better with the new firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
