NOTE: 5:00 / 7:17 - If you're unlocking a Pint X, you will need to go to the 'Flash' tab instead of the 'Backup' tab. The 'Extractor' is not compatible with the Pint X.

Where do you get 5076 from to flash to the board? “Flash” only allows you to “Choose File” but you can’t “Backup” a Firmware to modify or reload.

@@fixmypev back to what Kevin asked. During this video you state that you CAN do this with the pint x, but you are showing only the Pint being autoflashed through ffmwheel, which pint x is not compatible, you have to upload the firmware through the "Flash" section. Where do you find the file to flash onto the pint x? Are you able to show the process of getting the "downgraded" firmware onto a pint x?
@fixmypev

The Pint X is compatible with the ‘FLASH’ function of FFMWheel, but nothing else. The Gemini - 5076 file can be located on the ‘RESOURCES’ tab. As for the process: - Unlock w/ Unlocker Tool - Navigate to ‘FLASH’ tab on FFMWheel - Flash Gemini - 5076 The only difference between this and the OG Pint process is that you can’t ’BACKUP’ or ‘PATCH’ the Pint X. Only ‘FLASH.’

This literally saved my riding. I wasn't enjoying riding outside of my commute because of haptic buzz. My Pint X would dip the nose if i even hit a crack in the pavement because of the haptic buzz. I also thought that i had wrecked my battery during the winter since my board would just feel sluggish even at 70-80%. Now, it may be placebo, but my board feels much better down past 50% now and the nose doesn't give out to cracks in the road. It also seems like the battery just lasts longer in general. Now a quick tip with the Pint X process, have the unlocker tab and the flash tab open and pair the board to both tabs and get the flash page ready and loaded all the way to the point of clicking the flash button. Then do the steps for the unlocker and then hit flash right away once the unlocker shows the green text. I think it all has to be done in less than 20 seconds give or take. That's how I got mine to work after many attempts since I didn't realize I could pair to both tabs at the same time. Thanks for saving my board!

what do we do with the final step choices are dump the bootloader, dump settings or reboot? Then how do you bybass the app demanding to update?
just posted this on reddit but wanted to paste it here as well: I've had my pint since 2020. Once I got the knack of it I wanted more range. Didn't necessarily care about going much faster but range anxiety was real. A couple years later a friend of mine installed the chi quart battery along with a new Burris wheel from TFL and that changed everything for me. Fast forward a couple years later and OW came out with their haptic buzz update. I mistakenly installed it and had no clue that by doing so would basically mean my quart wasn't being fully recognized. Like so much that I started getting power surges in places I hadn't before. The same friend took my board, flashed the firmware (thanks ffmwheel!), and made it so that pushback doesn't occur until 20mph. I have always been a slower rider usually averaging around 11-12mph. Now I'm riding at 14-16 and I can't even begin to describe how this has increased my overall confidence in the board. It's a wonderful and freeing feeling that I never experienced early on and it rides leaps and bounds better now. At this point, I don't feel a huge rush anymore to upgrade to a bigger board because this one is serving me so well right now. Just wanted to share my thoughts and experiences with everyone...cheers!

This is very helpful thanks for the video! So I have a few questions. Does the app show the accurate firmware it is now on? (My app says my firmware is a 5040 after I went through your "Onewheel Firmware Modification: Improve Performance of Your GT & Pint." Does this make my board compatible with 3rd party batteries now? (Quart's website says confirmed working with 5314/Gemini 5050). Lastly, what's a safe pushback value to set my pint at? Theoretically with a quart and stock battery? Thanks so much.
@fixmypev
3 ай бұрын
Yes, the app shows the accurate firmware. 5040 is correct so you can use an extended range battery. As for the top speed value, I generally don’t recommend exceeding the Pint X value (1462) on the Pint. It’s all about risk tolerance though.
Thanks! I didn't update my pintx so I'm good, but is there a way to prevent the black notification from showing in the fm app?

Personally, I just flip airplane mode on when first connecting to the board. Then, I can make any changes I need to make (lights, ride mode, etc) and then I minimize the app so it can run in the background since I like recording rides. Don’t forget to turn airplane mode off so you can still use your phone after. 😅
Thanks for the video. It went very quickly and included examples of rewheeljng and connecting to program that may it be necessary depending on the board? Can you post a step by step, in text, for pint and one for PintX, please? Including links and verbiage around what to do and where to click?

I think you pressed the Reboot button after the firmware finished flashing (at least that's what I did). The video kind of glosses this part (around the 8 minute mark), so I wasn't entirely sure what to do. I think the correct answer is nothing. The board is good to go at this point. Thanks for posting this though! I started freaking out and then saw your comment. Once I followed the whole Rewheel guide, everything was good to go!

Airplane mode is what I use any time I want to open the app. Otherwise, I keep it connected, but minimized to avoid the ‘UPDATE’ popup.
So basically if you get the newest Pint X with Haptic buzz, there'll never be a way to mod it?

They can’t patch old firmware. So, as long as you don’t update your firmware to an unsupported version, you’re good.

@@fixmypev ofc but would be nice if this was always something that could be accessed. Probably not since we cant have nice things. Also why do you think new pints cant use it? You said the bootloader is different but why wouldnt they apply the same changes to the OTA update

@@NeedNot It ultimately is something that can always be accessed; provided that you download the offline files and don't update the Pint you're riding to an unsupported firmware version down the road (FM can patch future firmware updates to block this, but can't force you to update). And new Pints can't use it because Future Motion designed the bootloaders differently. The reason why they wouldn't apply the same changes is only known by them. When you do a firmware update, the bootloader isn't usually impacted. However, it was with some of the XRs updating to the haptic buzz firmware (Gemini - 4165). So, we can't put anything past FM at this point...
On the OG pint, I cannot pass dumping bootloader. Board have been downgraded and when I try to dump bootloader it is stuck on random values from 9 to 17% :( I think now its just bricked xD

This process has not been tested with 5315 hardware as far as I know. As a result, I am unable to advise on whether or not there is risk involved. If you’re willing to experiment (there is a risk of bricking your board) feel free to email me at www.fixmypev.com/contact-us.
