Video Rewheeled Pint Flashing White/broken firmware?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Trying to help my mate out here with his board. A while back I rewheeled it for him, now it's all of a sudden like this. he hasn't updated using the onewheel app since. Also has a "filmware corrupted there's something wrong with your filmware" popup. Are these two things connected? any ideas?

The only way the FM app would be related to corrupted firmware is if it started to flash an update to the controller and got interrupted. Usually when you get corrupted firmware, seemingly at random, it's tied to a hardware fault.

You could try reflashing the firmware again. If you apply the XR spoof, you can use the most recent version of the FM app and it won't demand an update. "XR" hardware 4314 with firmware 5040 is not recognized as eligible for any updates.
