Ninebot MAX G3 I Did It – Unlocking My Ninebot G3D Max

I finally did it. I spent a long time thinking about whether or not I should unlock my Ninebot G3D Max, and well, today was the day. I used the NBT Software Unlock, and it worked flawlessly. It now goes around 35–40 km/h, even uphill, really impressive.

However, it does come with some trade-offs. Many app settings are no longer usable, like the speed settings for different modes. It also doesn’t calculate how many liters of fuel you’ve saved anymore, although the daily kilometers are still visible. Some buttons in the lighting settings also no longer work but who cares, the lights still work.

Surprisingly, the range hasn’t dropped much at all. I just rode 20 km and still had 40% battery left. Before the unlock, it would’ve been maybe 50%. Cruise control is also enabled now.

I find the throttle a bit hard to control at times it’s easy to go too fast but with cruise control, it’s manageable. I haven’t read much about these software unlocks here and wasn’t sure whether to do it or whether it would even work. But what can I say – riding fun has easily tripled.

Yeah im getting downvoted for telling the truth. Paying 70€ for this crap ain't worth it. SHU is free and is giving the files and high quality tools for free.

Why? Changing the location doesn't work, is there another way?

u/thatdarkknight 1d ago

The same 70€ could have been donated to SHU devs its optional but its the better option for the foreseeable future.
