Hello all,
I’ve just found a deal near me and iv’e bought a used Waveshark jetboard, the issue is that it requires an app and an activation procedure, and Waveshark is now out of business and site is down and i can’t even download the app.
Anyone have the APK file of the waveshark app so i can try to understand if there is a way to unolock it?
Thanks but is not the Waveshark app for the jetboard, is a similarry named app for messaging… sadly not so useful
Just use the iOS version then as thats still available on the app store.
while the Company and activation does not exist anymore i need to tweak the App in some way, so an android app was ‘‘easier’’ to decompile and understand.
found the APK in an old repository, but all the servers are down, so sadly no way to retrieve the firmware… If Anyone has ever connected their phone to a waveshark board can please check if in the firmware folder there are some files?
Thanks
Hey Mate,
Just wondering if you ever found a solution to this as I am currently facing the exact same issue. I got the board and it is heavily speed restricted. From a claimed 60kph to about 7kph.
Cheers.
ended up changing the whole electronics… but i learn a lot of informations from my disassemby, what is telling u the app?
Thanks for the reply.
What makes me think it’s the app is the fact the board was brand new and it would need an update of some kind to have the speed restriction removed. It could be something else. I am just unsure of what that may be.
Cheers
Hello.
I have a board like this, too.
And I’m thinking of changing the electronics too.
Can you tell me which one you used? And if you find an app, can you send it? I’d like to study the code.
send me your email in PM we can speak vie email so i can share the modded apk
i’m reverse engineering the whole mess that this board is… is likely you have yout battery unbalanced thus speed restricted, what is your remote/ app sayng?
Hey I just got a wave shark board and I need the app as well to activate it. If youre able to send it to me that would help so much. davedisilvestro@gmail.com
sadly i had no luck activating it, requires the servers to be live while during the activation process the app is flashing all the firmwares of the system. i ended up replacing part of the electronics. Is your board never been activated?
Hi Filo, we have the same problems with our WaveShark. I have asked the AI what we could do.

What do you think? Let’s exchange ideas. Is your board running now? Where do you live? We live in Ibiza (Spain) Hugs Edyta
now my board is working but i’ve swapped part of the electronics with a working one, and tweaked a lot of pieces.
Chat gpt is wrong, a 13kw vesc is going to be More expensive and will not fit in the enclosure.
so honestly i’m not sure what might be the best approach for you.
If you are expert in electronics i can share with you what i’ve learned so far but is going to be really complex
Is your battery working well charging and balancing?
