Very tempted by this app... if I simply switch from EU to US region, will this make it harder for me to get repairs etc, or can I just switch back before doing that?

Assuming that it's not so broken that you can't actually get into it to change the setting back, then yes, you should in theory just be able to change it back to EU region.

Looking forward to trying this at the weekend. Sorry if this question has been asked before but iv downloaded the app but there is no “send a licence request” option in the main menu. Does it only show up once the bike has been connected to the app? Thanks

Hi vadll,

he translation is not completely clean. The text is too long for the dipslay.
You can not "force" another language. wanted to change to English. Apparently the IOS language is taken.

I've posted a new version which allows to change language manually. Moreover, I fixed some "localization" issues...

Interested in purely the 32kmh option,bit confused with all this downgrade etc but my drives etc is the latest version and I’m using an iPhone,will this work for me then? Do I need to be connected while I pay for the licensing? I’ve connected and had a look and requested licensing and have the email but I’m not connected ATM

1. No any DOWNGRADES/UPDATES are required. You can derestrict any supported bike with any FW on it
2. To get a license you have to connect to your bike and click on "Send a licence request". After that connection to a bike is not required. You'll get information about how to pay and etc.

It really is super easy once you figure it out. As @vadll says really. I wanted the same as you and had the same reservations. Now this very subtle change has been made the bike is transformed.

Yes I love everything as it is now I’ve adjusted some of the power settings with E-TUBE,I just find my cruising speed on fire roads/tracks etc is about 17mph so I’m in and out of assistance, so I’m guessing I’ve got to use the E-TUBE app to load previous versions of firmware so I can’t do this.

It's so hard to understand what do you want..
If you want to derestrict your bike using STUnlocker - read my post above.
If not, use E-Tube to change assist settings and enjoy your bike

Derestrict = raising top speed and vice versa. As I said above, and many times everywhere, downgrade is not required for changing speed limit to 32km/h

I’ll be getting a new 2020 eMTB with Shimano E8000 next week or so.
How does the ST UnLocker look for current firmware versions?

Nothing has changed, current E8000 firmware is still 4.7.1, last update was September 2019. Unless Shimano suddenly updates the DU-E8000 firmware between now and when you get your "2020" bike, then it will still be on 4.7.1.

I’ll have to check to see which display it comes with (E7000 vs E8000).

Does the E7000 still require the firmware downgrade?

The previous comments (and the ST Unlocker site) said that (IIRC) The E7000 display required a firmware downgrade to get the speed settings to work. The E8000 display did not.

Show me where it says this specifically, so there's context.
