Minimum version of Android to run flasher

[aristideau]

Hi
I own a Ninebot G30 max and would like to know if there are any minimum requirements to run any of the Android flashers as I own an iPhone and have no experience with Android devices and am looking at buying the cheapest (new or second hand) Android device to flash my scooter.
Also looking for a recommendation for the best app to use, or are they all pretty much the same?
Also do I also need to have a Windows 10 machine as well?
thanks in advance

Dude, you really should do a ton more research before diving into this. I hate to say it but it sounds like you might be in over your head.

For what it's worth, you should get a fairly newish Android phone- anything above Android 8 or 9. and yes definitely a Win 10 computer with bluetooth. Then you'll need to download ESdownG, XiaoFlasher, and Ninebot Flasher for Win 10.

Also, you'll need an ST-Link usb dongle and some basic soldering skills.

I would start by watching some Youtube vids on the subject read the posts here in scooterhacking very thoroughly. You will be modifying some very high voltage/amperage electronics and it's a very sensitive and precise procedure.

I would study long and hard before you decide to brick your scooter. Good Luck!
