I'm not sure if its appropriate to post the following but it helped me a lot so I figured I would share. Based on other research I found for changing serials with the ninebot ONE and other models...I was able to get a new control board activated with ALL the features. The chinese clone board I had purchased was ALREADY activated but it was with a serial for a model that did NOT have "Disco light" control, so that option was missing in my app. However it had mode switching (eco, normal, red S Sport). Changing the serial to the original Bird serial number gave me the Disco Lights back, but removed mode switching.

So going by this picture:

I was able to change the 4th digit from the E that the clone board had (or the R the bird serial has) to a T, which gave me both Mode switching and disco lights, and also put the picture of a ninebot scooter in my app when connected (no pic comes up when its a bird controller)
Very nice pieces of information, thanks for sharing!

A purely theoretical question. On the subject of BMS programmings it possible to change the serial number of both batteries with a similar method as the motherboard or in some other way.
Alternatively, if you can write a different battery capacity to bms, it would be useful to use some kind of tool to help increase the number of cells, but so that bms can see this capacity

Enter your old serial number exactly as you had it. How to change it you have described in the guide.
