What is the difference between these two boards? (the blue & the purple)
Is one superior to the other? Do they both have bluetooth and work with the app?

From my research, blue is OEM Xiaomi, purple is a knock off. It seems every post I have seen with a purple, the poster has issues with connecting to the app.

Thank you!

I figured as much, seeing as how the purples are about half the price and the blues actually say "ninebot" on them.

I will stick with blues!

Stick with blue. The purple has the power plug end that would come off of a bird board, and doesnt connect to the OEM plug without the bird part. People have had issues with those boards frying because of the headlight as well.

I have a purple, it won't let me flash any firmware.
It does work, though.

I was just about to try... (Price is Right "wah-wah trombones") Mine beeps and flashes the lights 2 times and it shuts off when you let up on the button. Thanks for the heads up. The dog is going to love extra cuddle time! I mistakenly got a purple clone board. It really annoys the neighbor when I press it and it beeps. Dog isn't fond either.

I'm about to freak everyone out.

So a blue circuit board is not enough to tell it's OEM. There is so many blue clones that it makes finding the real deal a frustrating task.

The only way to tell is by checking the Ninebot Logo. Refer to the following post on how to tell:

These lilac/purple boards have a different architecture (tm1637 chip, legs different etc) then m365 pro original/clone boards.

By default ble version shows as 910. You could change the BLE to 090 with st-link using correct hex file which you can find here

https://electro.club/forum/m365_pro_ble ... iya?page=2

https://electro.club/data/forum/message ... Purple.zip

pin connections are at the back. The order is:
3.3v - SWDIO- SWDCLK - GND

After upgrading ble to 090 all my problems gone.(i had stuttering problems in d and s mode)

You can not use camialfa v74 BLE files etc. since architecture is different.

You could BMS 126 (7800mah) for standard m365 here:
