    • RE: XR constantly losing app connection?

      So I had this spec:

      IPhone 7+ (no BT-issues with it at all elsewhere)
      iOS 12 - updated
      OneWheel SW: Andromeda 4117
      HW: 4208

      As other posters have. I JUST got a new Pixel3XL, and the BT issue is resolved. I can go like 30' away from the board and it stays connected. I can turn off/on lights from that distance - and my mapped rides never hyperspace from one point to another - they are all accurately logged. This makes me suspect that however the OW communicates to iOS may be different than with Android. Frequency? I have no idea - but it is perfect now and it was f&^45cked before. This also makes me think that FM may be able to develop a firmware/software fix for this. I had the return ship repair labels printed and ready to send to FM for repair from Canada - but gave this a try with the new phone - and it is now a non-issue. HAs anyone else had this problem with a newer Android phone?

    • RE: XR constantly losing app connection?

      I got a note from FM that acknowledges that at least my board (SN/HW#) is buggy and will repair IF they deem it below spec and of course at my cost to ship from Canada to the US. I’m really not sure it will be worth the cost.... but will get the quote anyways.

      @OneDan When riding like this - can you properly log a ride (ie. make a big figure 8 over a few blocks) without the recorded ride showing just a single line or some other skipped/curtailed path? Does your watch always keep connection that way with phone down low?

    • RE: XR constantly losing app connection?

      I'm finding that apple watch shows 'NO CONNECTION TO ONEWHEEL' even when the lost connection warning doesn't show on the phone. Apple watch can keep BT connected to phone for over 30' - but XR disconnects when stationary at distance of less than 10', and when moving, less than 3'. FM has been in touch with the ticket I posted by email a month ago - just asking for my SN, HW version, etc. They are aware of the issue and testing it out, apparently. Will post again when I know more. PS - I think this is related to the APP/GPS 'teleporting' rides or not properly recording distance, but am not 100%.

    • RE: XR replacement for *rear bumper only* with more durable plastic

      @tomfoolery High Density Polyethylene.... float plates help for sure but I'm sure I'll grind away to the screws before too long

    • Direct Sales for Canada

      I know it’s a smaller market, but how hard would it be to ship a few thousand units to Canada with pre-cleared duties (if even applicable on a huge shipment) and offer expedited shipping to Canadian customers? Surely Kyle you have a few friends in Vancouver/Calgary with warehouse spaces? ;)

    • RE: PROPOSED SHAPING - One-Direction Mode - Why? Efficiency, Safety!

      @Gwinntanamo true. But there oughtta be a subtle way to tell OW, « I’m at a red light, disengage » without the heel raise... I don’t have the answer but its a good question...

      +1

      New XR (less than week old)
      Hardware - 4208
      Firmware - Andromeda - 4117
      iOS: 12 on 7+

      BT disconnects often, but rides are fragmented almost always unless the app is open/running and screen not locked. In other words, rides are cut short even when I don't get a notice that the board has disconnected from the app. Have tried w. different location settings, with light on/off, still drops ride/gps data.
