The Official BLEvo Thread

[PaoloBLEvo]

From yesterday, the version 3.6.4 of BLEvo for Android is available.
Having tested the app on Android 8 I found some graphic issues that I fixed.
Here are all the news.

- Added configuration to ask at the end of the tour whether to rename the tour, copy the GPX and upload it to Strava
- Added configuration to choose whether to display feet or meters for altitude
- Added link to youtube page
- Now the TCX is saved every 3 meters and not every 6 as before
- Increased the maximum value of the second battery to 1500wh
- Bugfix: from a standstill it did not correctly rotate the map
- Bugfix: White background (BM displays still remain black)
- Bugfix: Arrow color
- Bugfix: Track size on new Android

Enjoy your ride with BLEvo..

I do not support derestriction, but I know how to derestrict any 2019-2020 levo. you can DM me for details. But again it is at your own risk. And yes... it works, you can reach 30mph easily before you top out from gearing. Also this is probably not legal to ride a derestricted bike in your area, so again, AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Sorry but if also Mission Control is not able to connect to the bike, I think the BV6000s has some Bluetooth issue.
In my case the connection works only if there are not interferencies in the Bluetooth connection.. e.g. in my house I'm not able to connect.. in the garage yes.. maybe the wifi, maybe the watch with BLE in advertsing mode.. I don't know the root cause, but I can't in my house.. I don't know if this can help you..

I got the BV 6000 S working the only way to do so was to erase the phone and restore it to factory original and then everything worked once I downloaded BLEvo

 

[PaoloBLEvo]

Thanks to Ed, the user manual in english has been update and reorginized in order to be more clear..
Here below there is the link..
It is also available directly from the app with the button in the home page
Thanks again Ed.. you have a pizza and a beer ready for you in Italy..

Mine rarely connects, I've basically given up and I'm using my Iphone 11Pro

In my experience my iPhone X and iPhone 11 Pro , connects quickly. My iPhone 10 camera stabilization started not working intermittently ,after about eight or 10 months of being mounted on the bars so I went to the BV 6000s , what TCU version are you running? I would make sure Blevo is up-to-date and your TCU is up-to-date (that’s done by the Specialize dealer)
Try downloading BLEvo on your iPad and see how it connects?

Oh I guess I miss read your post your BV 6000s does not connect?
Have you seen post I believe it’s #2741 On battery optimization

My bike was updated when I purchased it in early September... it worked for a while but now it doesn't connect...

I heard about this new firmware, but I didn't received any feedback about the speed unlock.. if someone knows something about this could post some information? Thanks

 

[RobbieJay]

@PaoloBLEvo Now I’m worried, my bike is current having its motor replaced under warranty, and I’ve been told it’s being updated to this new firmware, so I guess I’ll know when I get it back after the holidays, but that’s worrying...

In the mean time there is a French’s group who are using the new firmware on FB, I don’t speak french and I don’t use Facebook, maybe you could engage with that community if you use Facebook and ask them or may even they can beta test the firmware’s and newest BLEvo etc?

My buddy just picked a new Levo and his app cannot find the bike, also a new iPhone.

Connection issue with Levo 2019/2020

 

[TheBigBoss]

Personally I think the BLevo app is amazing and it seems the developer answers personally, which is rare.
Can anyone direct me on some really efficient Smart Power settings that still gives a bit of assistance but let's the battery last a lot longer?

Got it! It is working like mine now. There is one oddity, we are unable to adjust the minimum power assist in smart mode for the trail setting, all other settings work perfectly.

Thanks again, and I love the app. I hope my friend will too. Peace

Maybe you have to modify the percentage value of TURBO..

Yesterday Martin did a test on motor's firmware 7.1.1 (Levo 2018 or previous)
This is the result..
"
Hi Paolo,
today I have tested the blevo speed function on a non public fireroad. There was no cut off in motor support when I reached 30km/h. I could easily accelarate up to 45km/h. That means the BLevo Speed feature is fully working under the new firmware 7.1.1 with the Brose Drive S Alu. I was afraid, because the wheelsize in MC under the former FW5.0.4 always depended on the speed setting in BLevo. Now the min wheelsize in MC stays at 2.000. But this is no problem for speed settings above 29km/h.

Thank you for your great App! Happy Christmas!

Martin

Mission Control will show always 2000 when it detect value under this threshold..

I've been having an issue with mine recently, I've got a road setting of 8% - 30% - 100% but when I start riding and go down from turbo, which it always starts on, it goes to 90% and then 80% on eco, I then have to reload the settings and eventually it will go to 8% but even then when going to trail it goes to 18% not 30%...

Any ideas??

I think you have the Smart Power active...
Please check the configuration of the Smart Power.. if you don't want it, please desable it..

Thanks for your reply. I was using smart power but it is now turned off.

If you have time to understand it and try it, you will save the battery...?

I thought it gave me to much assistance when I didn't need it...

The random assistant problem is occurring since I've stopped using it... ?

 

[Dee Scee]

what maps are you guys using these days? (especially in nor cal)

i was using osm hike bike and i was happy with it. it was tedious downloading the tiles, a slow process w my bv600s, but it worked well. then recently, i’ve been unable to download tiles and areas that i had previously downloaded were not there.

im qdeciding if i should keep working on osm hike bike or try some new maps...

 

[Kave]

I have been riding with Blevo almost every ride since I got the bike in may. Today I didnt find my bike phone, the BV6000 so I just took a ride with my Garmin edge instead. Huh, I find the standard modes so bad, trail is way too powerful and eco too slow.
I had to start Blevo on the iPhone so I could use smart power again.
Thanks Pablo, I think you should get revenue from all Levo/Kenevo sales.

 

[Vilt]

How do you use "MTB Tiramisu"? I downloaded the Tiramisu package and installed in in the maps directory... that's it?

This is the same geeling I had when I rode a not BLEvo bike.. ?

You don't need to download any special package.. just select the Tiramisù theme under maps configuration..

Ah.

And it's supposed to be mostly white/black with colored roads? It might not be for me or my area then, it looks mostly... unfinished.

@PaoloBLEvo A minor issue but when distance is set to miles in iOS BLEvo, Strava average consumption is labeled wh/km though BLEvo correctly shows wh/mi. The values are the same and are the correct wh/mi but labeled incorrectly in Strava.

Wish the USA would switch to metric like most of the world. Maybe I should do my part and go metric, damn everyone else around me. ? ?
