[Eckythump]

Just popped up on my Instagram feed.....

Finally

Has anyone already updated the firmware?

 

[Eckythump]

I haven’t yet as have been messing with the other app and I think this update kills it.
Interested to know what other improvements there are.

It is not necessary to update the engine firmware, just update Etube and you can set ECO levels even on old firmware. On the other hand, 4.7.0 could block the operation of unofficial applications.

I’m not seeing any update to the app in the App Store?

 

[Eckythump]

I need to edit the title as yes it is mainly the app. There is a firmware update too.
I may give it a go as I don’t need the other app for this bike.

 

[Eckythump]

The Instagram post says available from the e-tube website so it is probably only the PC software which is immediately available. I guess the App will have to go through the usual Apple approval process.

 

[valium64]

Actually only the PC software, later on they say will come mobile app.

Thread title edited to reflect only a PC App update so far??

I've had a look on the E-Tube Project website, and the release notes for this new update state that you can adjust Eco to Low, Medium or High levels. So it's note completely clear how much adjustability it will offer.
I'm hesitant to upgrade at the moment because my Freemax works perfectly and offers incremental adjustment.
So it will be interesting to hear from anyone who has used this new official Shimano function.

Has anyone tried out the new 4.7.0 firmware? I have heard rumors of it making the trail mode even more intuitive. I have a bsdass box fitted, which i have been informed may not operate after the 4.7.0 update.
I am not going to update until i know for sure the badass box will still work.

That's a bit worrying!

I dont see why it wouldn't work, as the BAB isn't in any way connected to the software or motor, its just tricking the sensor.

The E-TUBE Android APP that allows to change ECO setting IS ALREADY AVAILABLE

 

[PeterM]

I was more interested in the change to trail mode in the way it adjusts how much power to assist by sensing your input. It already does this but i heard it was furthur tweaked. Anyone with experience?

 

[stiv674]

Just updated to latest firmware, it now allows eco to be adjusted and also the display speed up and down...

Haven't ridden bike with new settings yet though.

 

[stiv674]

I should add that the eco settings are the same as trail and boost, choice of low, mid and high only.

 

[Spiff]

What do you mean by "display speed"?

 

[stiv674]

I think it allows you to adjust the display speed to the correct GPS speed of yours is under or over reading... Maybe
