Any Future for G30LP's?
I bought one recently and started hearing about the firmware "updates" that continue to degrade the performance and features of what was one of, if not the best value scooter on the market.
The ScooterHacking Utility app reports my BLE at 1.1.7 and DRV 1.8.4 and which apparently means I can't downgrade to reliable firmware like 1.2.6 and the black plastic controller tells me I'm out of luck with STLinking (although one person has said it worked for theirs).
Is there anyone working on cracking through newer firmware versions or are the new G30 owners SOL? I would love to hang onto it but currently it's just not what I paid for and that breaks my heart to see the market going that way.

i got a newer one that was bound to the segway app and has the black plastic unflashable controller. i took that garbage out and bought a preflashed with cfw, original ninebot 3 capacitor heavy duty mosfet g30D controller, slapped it in and it’s like a stud horse now always at the most torque, dragging me up hills like a chariot, always pushing hard. you could do that…$120 from mymaxmods is better than buying a new scoot imo
revisiting this also the 30lp is much nimbler and the wheelbase is short enough to take it in skate parks with the same souped up speed you can put in a 30p but not constantly grinding the battery cover. idk just a thought
one more…grab a 30p battery and boost your distance from 367wh to 551. come on…you know you want to
So G30D controllers are compatible with the G30LP? I'm seeing a $60 one for the D and a $200 one for the LP on Aliexpress so that would be pretty helpful.
yes same/same for lp vs p
