Since IOS update 16.1 speed and distance are now correct again.
Sorry if I answer only now, maybe you already found the answer.Hi,
First time poster here trying to get the lay of the land. I think I understand the situation in regards to 2022 models with the Master Mind TCU. BLEVO will not work with these models. I have a couple of questions about the possible workarounds being suggested please:
1 - Replace Master Mind TCU with basic TCU as suggested by Paolo. This sounds very promising but I don't see any ride reports confirming this is feasible. Has anyone actually tried this approach?
2 - Levocirapotor integration: I've read through the threads and do not fully understand the level of integration with Blevo? Are all of the Smart Power features fully functional with this solution?
Am I missing any other options? Thanks!!!
(I did post this in another thread which I think was the wrong place)
Sorry but I didn't know about this change... I will try to find the information to update the ride type with the correct attribute..Hi
With the latest version of Strava (Android app), we can now choose if it is an eMTB activity or a "normal" ebike ride.
I use BLEvo to automatically upload my activities to Strava and I don't have the choice to choose between an eMTB ride and a normal ebike ride. STRAVA records all my activities as eMTB rides. I use a Turbo CREO SL for my daily commute and I would like to have the choice in BLEVO to choose how to record the activity in Strava: eMTB or eRoad Bike.
Is this possible?
Thanks

Maybe this is caused by the new iOS... I have to release a new version for the new iOS..I've been using BLEvo for a long time without any problems, but the other day it started crashing while trying to record a ride. I restarted it several times but it would not record the ride. So I deleted the app and re-installed it.
Today I was able to record my ride but I am getting an error when I try to upload to Strava:
Strava Upload Error
Error uploading activity in Strava. Error 1.2: (null)
I have tried "Remove authorization" and then "Add authorization" again, but I am still getting the same error.
I am using an iPhone 12 Pro iOS version 15.5 and BLEvo v3.7.9 iOS.
Please help!

I tested the Apple Watch functionality more than 2 years ago and it worked.. But from all the posts I understood that the new version of the Apple Watch doesn't send the HR data in real time and so BLEvo is not updated correctly. The best thing for HR data for BLEvo is to connect the HR bluetooth device, directly to BLEvo and not to the OS of the phone.Apple Watch HR and Blevo - Still not working - Can we resolve this once and for all and get definitive answers
I’ve been using Blevo for 3 years and have never managed to get the Apple Watch HR to work properly. I’ve read all the threads and most say its at best unreliable.
FYI, I’m an IT professional so generally know what I’m doing and I’ve now tested more than on 6 iPhones, all IOS versions, 3 or 4 Apple Watches, and have spent too many hours trying.
@Paolo -
1. Can you confirm that it should work reliably ?
2. Do you need to run a workout on the watch as I’ve found this does nothing
3. Are there any settings that should be set in the watch/iphone?
I’ve also tested with 2 dedicated BT HR monitor and they too have been unreliable although significantly better.
What happens is, as others have reported, that Blevo initially sees the Apple Watch and shows the correct HR but it then does not update. If you go for a long enough ride it may record a few times (about once every 30-45mins) . Al;so if you pause the ride or interrupt in other ways, when you start the ride again it often records HR once more. As we all have reported the iphone gets updates very second or two.
Hopefully Paolo or others can put this long standing issue to bed as its very much desired.
This is because the healthy of the battery is not more 100%...Another question: I have a 500W battery, why does BLEVO only show 480/480.
For the .fit upload it doesn't work if you kill BLEvo when the phone is in pause.. Maybe there is some battery optimized to kill BLEvo.. If BLEvo is kept running the .fit is not corrupted. In any case you can use some fit tools to correct the fit file and upload it in Strava..Tiny improvement suggestion.
If you ride with gpx route, default suggested name for the saved ride could be same as the name of the gpx file.
btw.
There is tiny bug. If you use custom tile server address and change some other settings, blevo will "forget" that you have used own map address. Maybe there is some trouble with config file and it won´t save "custom map" setting correctly.
.fit upload to strava won´t work if you have paused ride of turned bike off between the ride.
Only if you change the speed limit.. You can use Levociraptor for all the other functionality...Hello, I have a question, can someone confirm if using blevo+levociraptor on a levo 2022 loses the manufacturer's warranty?
Thanks for the edit. You should you special file manager to access to all the file.Today I changed the smartphone for my levo. But with the new android I'm not able to store the openandromaps anymore. At the old phone the file directory was blevo/map. Now at the new phone the directory is android/data/com.dopa.android.blevo/files/Blevo/Maps
But it's impossible to copy anything to this direction, because it's out of range for the data manger. Android now has a depth limit for this and the OBB files.
How can I solve the problem? Has anybody a solution?
Best regards
Michael
EDIT: I found out it's a problem of Android 13. You can handle it only with one program, it's called fv file manager
Hola Paolo ;I just got your BLEvo app on my iPhone and I have install the velociraptor on my Turbo Creo 2021 Specialize SWORKS and will like to know if your BLEvo could be applied to my bike ;I have read that you should not use your mission control at the same time and most important to know is if the battery life get consume since o to 42km/hr or just when it reach more than 42km/hr and above ;it feels that battery is drain from the biggining ;today I hade only ridden 13 kms and my battery consumption was more than 20%Hi at all,
the original BLEvo thread reached 150 pages, so it is very long to read for the new users so it is better to create a new one.
The link is here
The Official BLEvo Thread
With many members now using BLEvo I thought that we could use this thread for all discussion, FAQ etc on it. Great that we have the developer of BLEvo @PaoloBLEvo now registered to answer any questions or to give feedback to. Welcome Paolo and thanks for joining.www.emtbforums.com
We can start to discuss about BLEvo in this new thread, with some suggestion and question about it.
You can ask also for question about the integration with Levociraptor Gen2. Some details can be found on www.levociraptor.com
Feel free to ask questions on EMTBForums but before doing so, please check if your question is already covered by either:
BLEvo manual Instruction manual in english
or BLEvo FAQ FAQ in english

I will post the news... Now we are in testing phase and after some trouble, the tests are going well.. I think for the end of February the "present" can be available for everyone..When can we unwrap this amazing present?!?
This is really good news. I was able to swap out the Mastermind TCU for the LED TCU on my '22 Expert and it works perfectly with the Levociraptor. It would be nice to have the Mastermind capabilities for the further though.I will post the news... Now we are in testing phase and after some trouble, the tests are going well..

No, a blevo app I can download from the Garmin store and use on my Garmin device. I already have a Garmin and use the Ebike data app and it works great, but I do feel that Blevo be able to do it better than the current offerings.@ebikeZA what do you mean? Are you thinking blevo with more native garmin feature for trails? Like blevo/garmin connect mashup?
Blevo seems like a super powered Mission Control. What would be the garmin equivalent of Mission Control?
I use the Ebike Field.Oh, crazy. I did t even know there was a garmin App Store. I have a 530, what app are you referring to? @ebikeZA
