I'm at almost 2,300 miles, running 1.2.2. I, too, replaced my battery this year due to degradation. I left it charged 100% most of the winter when not riding. My bad. Hey, more than 2200 miles and you had to change the battery? You got your money's worth. How about the total run time? That would be interesting to compare. Mine is at 98 hours at 330 miles in about 13 months. The total run time includes some few minutes here and there testing the app, calibrating the wheel, resting my feet and so on. I don't ride everyday, used to ride several times a week but now usually just ride on the weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy smokes! That's like 4,350 MILES! Geez! I'm an amateur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an amateur I think you are a Platinum Knight according the the app. That's pretty close to the top of the N Coins award top tier, I would not call you an amateur. If you are about ready to get a different wheel, maybe you should go to firmware 1.4.0 just to see if it is any different. Ninebot has stayed with this latest firmware for over a year now, I am beginning to think it will never be updated again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe they spending more time on S2 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I did get a message that a new version of the app was available so I updated the app, it is now at version 3.7.7, the old version was 3.7.6. No difference in the screens as far as I can tell. Maybe they are rolling out the new firmware country by country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn, I would like that update, I guess mine is so new that it doesn't need an update. I was hoping it would give more tiltback options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, you can now try to upgrade your 9b1 to 1.4.1 (and even go back to previous versions) by following this guide: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the link, it was very interesting to know that changing the firmware is possible. It would be fun if the firmware could be changed in the app anytime you wanted, just by selecting the version in the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as soon you change your smartphones wifi-settings to default, you will get no notifications and your app will show correct fw version info. So it's nothing scary here since the firmware writing process itself is done by official ninebot app. So don't be shy, give it a try! And ask if there are things you don't understand.

steve454 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Thanks @Vik's, I am happy with the 1.4.0. The 8khz sound is very quiet and I think the power improved a little. I don't want an earlier version, but if a new firmware does show up I will install it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
