lioku 6 Posted February 11 Has Inmotion or some third party documented the Bluetooth protocol used on the V8 or their other EUCs? I love geeking out on the stats from DarknessBot and the official app, but I find the logging interfaces in both to be lacking some functionality. Being a software developer by trade, I thought it would be fun to play around with some interface ideas. But after reading the forum posts about GyroMetrics, DarknessBot and WheelLog, it seems like the developers of those apps had to reverse engineer the communication protocols for the various brands with a Bluetooth LE sniffer and lots of trial and error. It might be fun to dig into that, but I'm curious; has the situation changed at since those apps were originally written? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blueblade 14 Posted February 11 👍a fellow "geeker outer". I've also enjoyed looking at wheellog data, and have been thinking of ways to throw some analytics against it to uncover more insights. I'm more like an administrator/systems engineer that likes to write code than a developer though. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was quite some time ago and they are still maintained (except gyrometrics). Mainly support for new wheels like the z10... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm tempted to take my old Android phone out with me just to try out WheelLog. Exporting data is one of the features I really crave, as that would allow me to -- as you say -- apply my own analysis after the fact. My current phone runs iOS, and I'm definitely not upgrading any time soon due to -- cough -- saving for a new wheel Thanks for the confirmation, @Chriull. Seems like reverse engineering or partnering is the way forward if I want to pursue this. Edited February 14 by lioku Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
