Releases
FoxFW-v2.1
FoxFW is a Flipper Zero firmware fork focused on Sub-GHz, NFC and a companion
app ecosystem. v2.1 is a large release; the highlights:
Companion app
- FoxFW now pairs with the new FoxFW Companion Android app over Bluetooth or
USB. Capture and decode Sub-GHz fobs, mirror and drive the screen, browse the
SD card, update firmware, work with NFC and LF tags, and drive a Fox ESP32 -
all from the phone. Heavy jobs (PSA, Hitag2, KeeLoq) can be offloaded to it.
Sub-GHz
- Much wider protocol coverage, including a large automotive and gate/garage
decoder expansion and full parity with the internal engine. - New Fox SubGHz Grabber: one-button capture with auto-sweep.
- Garage/Gate/Other improvements: per-protocol transmit, live-Read frequency
hopping, and emulate/save fixes. - New Sub-GHz KeeLoq tool and keystore utilities.
NFC
- Added the MTools app (magic-tag check, UID changer, NDEF emulation).
Stability and RAM
- The long-standing qFlipper RAM issue is resolved, along with a boot-race fix
and a round of memory and fragmentation work, so the heavier apps have more
room to run.
Apps and UI
- Redesigned, vehicle-aware TPMS app with a guided Select Model flow.
- New and refreshed Fox and community apps, consistent Fox-style buttons across
the firmware, and a range of desktop and menu polish.
Device
- USB/COM-port drift fixed on renamed Flippers.
- Renaming the Flipper no longer reboots it.
Install
- Web flasher: https://foxfw.github.io/fox-web/flasher.html
- qFlipper: drag the attached .tgz onto the device.
- On-device: Fox Update Downloader checks for and installs this release.
Attached files
- flipper-z-f7-full-local.dfu, flipper-z-f7-update-local.tar,
flipper-z-f7-update-local.tgz (hand-attached), plus the version-suffixed SDK
assets added automatically.
FoxFW-v2.0.13
FoxFW2.0 v2.0.13
This release focuses on Sub-GHz car remotes and memory stability: a reworked remote-transmit flow with far fewer false IDs, a long-hunted heap-fragmentation fix so your largest free memory block recovers after connecting qFlipper, new protocols synced from upstream, ProtoPirate v4, a complete Fox-logo refresh across the firmware, and the first (experimental) keyfob-firmware emulators.
New
- More protocols (synced from Unleashed): Indala 224-bit RFID; Erreka KeeLoq programming mode; two new Sub-GHz Garage protocols (keyfinder2 and doorbell32); NFC MIFARE DESFire Light reading and FeliCa Standard card emulation.
- SubRATT adds three fixed-code protocols: AllStar Firefly, Elplast, and Linear Delta-3.
- USB Mode (Fox Settings) gains two new buttons - Music USB Mode and Media USB Mode (launching the Fox MP3 USB and Fox Media USB apps). The screen now scrolls, with a scrollbar on the right.
- ProtoPirate updated to v4.0.
- Experimental - Pandora ARM & Pandora PIC keyfob-firmware emulators (Apps -> Sub-GHz). These are early: most keyfob firmwares won't launch on-device yet because of the Flipper's RAM limits. They're included for experimentation and ongoing development, and ship with example firmware files.
Fixes
- Fewer false car-remote detections. KIA/Hyundai V5 and several others now validate before firing, and PSA shows "Unknown Signal" until you decrypt it, with clearer prompts.
- Fiat V1 "Error in protocol parameters description" on emulate is fixed.
- No more random reboot/BusFault when opening Sub-GHz with qFlipper connected (a radio-driver race).
- Sub-GHz <-> Garage hand-off fixed: crashes and "Cannot parse file" are resolved, backing out of a handed-off file returns you to Sub-GHz (not the desktop), and a low-memory guard prevents a hard power-off when loading a saved file on a busy system.
- Largest free memory block recovers after qFlipper / a serial session. It used to lose about 20 KB to a stranded block and stay that way until a reboot. Total free memory was never affected; this restores the contiguous headroom large apps need.
- The WiFi status-bar icon no longer occasionally draws on the wrong side of the battery after a cold boot.
- CC1101 receive is hardened against bad-hardware / noise data that could crash Read.
- RAM Monitor no longer faults when saving a heap map.
Improvements
- Car-remote transmit redesign: "Full" always does a faithful raw replay, "Send" does a clean re-encode, and decryption is on demand - more reliable TX with fewer surprises.
- Less background memory churn: the desktop no longer re-allocates wallpaper / clock / WiFi buffers behind a running app, and no longer polls the SD card every 2 seconds - smoother, with less transient fragmentation.
- Fox logo everywhere: result and status screens across NFC, RFID, Infrared, iButton, SubRATT and ProtoPirate now show the Fox logo (including the NFC "Don't move the Tag!" screen). The Dolphin mascot is gone from the first-party firmware.
How to update

FoxFW-v2.0.12
FoxFW is a feature-focused Flipper Zero firmware. v2.0.12 centers on Sub-GHz automotive/KeeLoq accuracy, two important crash fixes, and a sizeable NFC RAM reclaim, plus ESP32 flasher auto-detection and a few new apps.
Highlights
Sub-GHz — stability
- Fixed a BinRAW out-of-bounds read that could crash Read on noise (both AM and FM) after a few minutes.
- No crash when a loaded file names a protocol that has no encoder.
Sub-GHz — automotive & KeeLoq
- Kia V3/V4 captures now re-read, send in Full, and save correctly (fixes the v2.0.11 "Protocol not found").
- ProtoPirate-saved files now open in Sub-GHz (Kia V3/V4, Kia V6, PSA 23/36).
- Generic KeeLoq decoding added to the main Sub-GHz app; keystore rebuilt as a 245-key plaintext master.
- Decoder fixes: PSA BF2 CRC, Kia V5 indicator, Honda static checksum, Fiat V0; key-list expansions (Fiat/Renault Hitag2 8→95, extra Kia/manufacturer keys).
- Toyota TX encoder added; Ford V0 fix; FAAC SLH/Genius key selected by name; ProtoPirate updated to 3.8.
Sub-GHz Garage
- Four more gate decoders: Nord ICE, Allstar/Firefly, Prastel, Ditec GOL4.
NFC
- MFKey32 collector, MIFARE Fuzzer, and the Moscow-transit parser moved out of nfc.fap — about 13.4 KB more free RAM, which fixes the intermittent "Plugin Not Loaded" when opening saved cards.
ESP32 companion
- Fox ESP32 Flasher now auto-detects the connected chip and picks the right firmware/boot address (and fixes a wrong-address updater bug). Updated board labels.
Apps
- CAN Commander updated to v2.3.1, Seed Capturer added, NightVision Finder updated to v1.2.
UI
- Fox logo now shown on all emulate screens.
Special thanks: @777 for the Kia V3/V4 debugging, and @mob for sharing his KeeLoq-RX codebase (with permission) that drove several of the decoder fixes.

FoxFW-v2.0.11
FoxFW2.0 v2.0.11
A small follow-up to v2.0.10: fixes for Sub-GHz Garage Read on external
modules, menus that return you to where you came from, smoother loading, and
two memory fixes. It also does two one-time things the first time it boots.
The first time you boot v2.0.11
These happen once per SD card and never again:
- Your default wallpaper is reset to the fox logo. Cards updated from older
builds still had a "YOUR LOGO HERE" placeholder as the default. If your
Default.xbmwas anything other than the fox logo, it is kept as
Default2.xbmin thewallpapersfolder, so nothing is lost. A different
wallpaper you selected yourself stays selected. - The Sub-GHz RSSI Threshold is set to -65 (the new default, was -75). You
can change it again afterwards like any other setting. -65 is a little less
sensitive, so a weak or distant remote may need to be held closer.
Fixes
- Garage Read no longer ends almost instantly with "No Match" on some
external CC1101 modules. A few stray pulses as the receiver started could be
mistaken for a signal. Read now ignores the first moment after the receiver
starts and ignores captures that are too short to be a real signal, and
simply keeps listening. - Back from a Settings page returns to Settings, with the item you opened
still selected, instead of dropping you on the desktop. Fox Settings opened
from the Apps menu returns to the Apps menu the same way. - Largest free memory block no longer drops after a Garage Read. It used to
fall from about 131K to about 78K and stay there until a reboot. Total free
memory was never affected; this restores the contiguous headroom large apps
need. - A small memory leak in the app loader is fixed (it could occur when
qFlipper or a serial session connected while an app was loading).
Improvements
- Garage Read copes with noisy modules and locations. Read now measures the
background level of the radio it is using and only reacts to a signal clearly
above it (never below your RSSI Threshold). A capture ends once the signal
has dropped away, and after 5 seconds at most. - A "Decoding" screen during Garage Read. While a capture is being decoded
you now see a progress bar and which protocol group is being tried
(for example 3/11), instead of a screen that looked like Read RAW. Back
cancels. - No more desktop flash while loading. Opening Read, Read RAW or a saved
file from the Sub-GHz Garage section shows the loading wheel straight away
and keeps it up until Garage opens. Returning from a Settings page to the
menu no longer flashes the desktop either.
How to update
- On the Flipper (with a Fox ESP32 attached): open Fox Update Downloader
and select Fox Custom Firmware. - In a browser: the FoxFW web flasher at https://foxfw.github.io/fox-web/flasher.html

FoxFW-v2.0.10
FoxFW2.0 v2.0.10
HOTFIX Updated 30 September 2026. v2.0.10 has been refreshed in place with
follow-up fixes (see "HotFixes after update 30th September 2026" below).
If you have already installed this update, please install it again.
In Fox Update Downloader it will say "Up to date" - choose
Download Anyway (and Re-Download if it offers a copy
you already downloaded) - or use the web flasher.
This is one of the biggest FoxFW releases yet. It adds a brand-new way to use
your Flipper as a USB drive for speakers and TVs, a proper USB-mode switch, a
deep round of memory work that claws back RAM headroom after qFlipper sessions,
a more capable Sub-GHz bruteforce/randomize app, several new Sub-GHz protocols
and conveniences, external-CC1101 support for the Garage app, and a broad
consistency-and-stability pass across the whole Fox app suite.
HotFixes after update 30th September 2026
- External CC1101 now stays on External in Garage/Gate/Other. In the first
v2.0.10 build the module was detected (Read showed Ext during the
countdown), but Garage dropped back to Int as soon as Read started, and
Receiver Config kept snapping back to Internal. The check that asks "is the
module still there?" was giving the wrong answer for a module that was
already in use. That check is fixed, so a connected module stays selected
through Read and in Receiver Config, and the Int/Ext label now always
shows the radio that is actually receiving. - ProtoPirate (Fox Edition) updated to 3.7 (from 3.2). See the ProtoPirate
section below. - ProtoPirate and Sub-GHz now open each other's saved files. A
.sub
saved in ProtoPirate opens directly in the Sub-GHz app, and a.subsaved in
Sub-GHz opens in ProtoPirate for the protocols both apps share.
Highlights
- Two new USB drive apps — Fox MP3 USB and Fox Media USB. Turn a folder on
your SD card into a read-only USB drive named FOX that plugs straight
into a Bluetooth speaker, car head unit, or TV — and it now builds instantly,
no matter how big your library is. - USB Mode in Settings. Switch between qFlipper Mode and Mass Storage Mode
from Settings → Security & Privacy, without the CLI. - Big RAM-headroom win. A ground-up fix for heap fragmentation means the
largest free memory block recovers after you connect and disconnect qFlipper,
instead of slowly shrinking over a session. - SubRATT replaces the old Sub-GHz Bruteforcer — one more capable app, with
9 new protocols and a Randomize mode. - New Sub-GHz protocols and features — General Motors and Mitsubishi V0-a, a
reworked Renault V1 with a SEED bruteforcer, Fiat V1 button remap,
duplicate-save protection, and Auto-Save. - External CC1101 now works for Garage/Gate/Other (fixed properly in the
30 September update). - ProtoPirate 3.7, with saved files that open in both ProtoPirate and
Sub-GHz. - A lighter, cleaner system — the Dolphin XP/leveling system and the old
desktop animations are gone, freeing flash and simplifying the idle screen.
New: Fox MP3 USB & Fox Media USB
Put your files in a folder, launch the app, and the Flipper appears to whatever
you plug it into as an ordinary USB thumb drive called FOX.
- Fox MP3 USB serves everything in
/MP3/at the root of the drive. - Fox Media USB serves
/MEDIA/and itsMUSIC/VIDEO/PICTURE
subfolders (created for you automatically the first time). - Drop your files into the folder before launching the app. The drive is
built around the files already on your card — nothing is copied — so it
appears almost instantly whether you have five songs or five hundred.
(Earlier builds copied every file into a drive image, which took minutes for a
large folder; that copy step is gone.) - A Disconnect button ejects the drive and hands USB back to qFlipper when
you're done. - The drive is read-only, so a speaker or TV can't write files back to it
or mess up your card. - Long filenames are handled safely.
- These are standalone apps that keep everything they need inside themselves —
they add nothing to the firmware's internal storage.
USB Mode (Settings → Security & Privacy)
A new USB Mode screen lets you switch between:
- qFlipper Mode — normal (the Flipper boots into this every time).
- Mass Storage Mode — exposes your SD card to a computer over USB.
Mass Storage Mode cleanly takes over from an active qFlipper session, shows a
Disconnect button, and displays a brief LOADING hint while your
computer opens the drive. Your SD card now shows up labeled FOX.
Memory & stability
If you've ever seen free memory slowly shrink over a long session — especially
after connecting and disconnecting qFlipper — this release targets exactly
that. Several small, long-lived allocations that used to get stranded in the
middle of the heap are now set up once at boot, so the largest free block
recovers to its full size after a qFlipper session instead of stranding
lower.
It also includes real fixes for an occasional "Out of memory / Reboot" seen
after hopping between several radio/NFC/RFID apps in one session: a
heap-corruption risk in Sub-GHz's signal history, a leak in Sub-GHz Garage's
auto-decode recovery path, a leak in NFC's Mifare Classic dictionary attack,
and a double-free in the new SubRATT's attack setup. RFID itself was audited
closely and came back clean.
Worth knowing (not a bug): opening Sub-GHz or SubRATT always uses a fairly
large chunk of RAM up front, because every protocol decoder has to be ready at
once so the app can auto-identify an unknown signal. It's fully released the
moment you close the app.
There's also a new heap_map CLI command and a snapshot button in the
Fox RAM Monitor app for anyone who wants to watch memory directly.
SubRATT (formerly Sub-GHz Bruteforcer)
The old SubBrute app is replaced by SubRATT, which merges in the upstream
project's full protocol set and adds 9 more (Honeywell, Hollarm, GangQi,
Magellan, Intertechno V3, Feron, Doitrand, Mastercode, X10), plus a
Randomize attack mode alongside Brute Force. Its menus were redesigned to
match the rest of the Fox suite.
It's reachable from both the Apps menu and the Sub-GHz Mode Picker (labeled
SubRATT there now), and exiting it from the Mode Picker returns you to the Mode
Picker instead of dropping to the Desktop.
Please bench-test before relying on it daily — it's a large, freshly-merged
app; not every protocol's transmit behavior has been confirmed against real receivers yet.
Sub-GHz
- Update instead of duplicate save: re-receiving a signal you've already
saved now offers Update so it overwrites the existing file instead of
piling up new ones as a rolling code advances. - Auto-Save Every Signal: optional toggle (off by default), in both the
main Sub-GHz app and Sub-GHz Garage. With it on, every signal Read decodes is
written straight to your Sub-GHz folder as its own file, so you don't have to
save each one by hand. - Renault V1 Seed BF: brute-forces the classic Hitag2 SEED from a saved
Renault V1 signal, right from its menu. - Fiat V1 button remap (Unlock/Lock/Trunk/Close) for captures with a
recovered key. - New protocol — General Motors (Chevrolet/GMC/Buick/Cadillac): decode and
replay (the rolling cipher is proprietary, so this can't generate fresh
codes). - New protocol — Mitsubishi V0-a: decode and replay.
- Reworked protocol — Renault V1 (Hitag2): decode and replay across
315 / 433 / 868 MHz; the Renault V1 Seed BF above works on it. - Opens ProtoPirate's saved files (30 September update): a
.subsaved in
ProtoPirate now opens directly in the Sub-GHz app, with no conversion step.
Kia V5 captures saved with anywhere from 64 to 67 bits load as well. - Fixed the RSSI threshold silently resetting on every launch.
- Several settings now save the moment you change them instead of only when you
back out of the screen.
Sub-GHz Garage
- External CC1101 now works when you open Garage/Gate/Other from the Apps
menu — it checks for an attached module first, the same way the Mode Picker's
Garage entry already did. If you'd rather skip that check, the plain version
is still there as Garage/Gate/Other (Direct). There's also a new
Radio Module (Internal/External) setting in Garage's own Receiver Config
(now the first item) for a module you plug in after opening the app. It's
guarded everywhere: it won't stick on External if nothing answers, and a
module going quiet at any point falls back to Internal instead of crashing.
Read and Read RAW show Int/Ext on screen.
30 September update: a working module is no longer mistaken for a missing
one, so it stays on External once Read starts. - Multiple protocol groups can be enabled at once — Read tries every
enabled group. - Back during a read now stops the read and returns to Start with no
countdown; a failed decode returns to Start without the countdown (the
No Match popup with Save is kept).
ProtoPirate (Fox Edition) 3.7
Added in the 30 September update. ProtoPirate moves from upstream 3.2 to 3.7,
which brings:
- A new Renault V1 protocol, with the newer Renault variants folded in.
- A car models database.
- Brute force from saved files.
- A receiver sound option, date/time filenames, and a save-filename
dialog in Sub Decode. - Many crash and RAM fixes, including the receiver hopper crash.
- Mitsubishi V0 and Porsche Touareg were removed upstream and are no longer in
ProtoPirate.
Saved files now work across both apps:
- ProtoPirate → Sub-GHz:
.subfiles saved ...
FoxFW-v2.0.9
FoxFW2.0 is a fully custom Flipper Zero firmware built around security, usability, and deeper RF tooling — an evolution of the stock firmware with a large Fox-exclusive app suite for Sub-GHz, TPMS, ESP32 WiFi/BLE extension, and more.
Highlights since v2.0.8
Fox TPMS
- Guided Select Model flow (Ford, Renault, Citroën/Peugeot, Toyota/Lexus, Kia/Mercedes/Other) walks you through vehicle-specific instructions and tunes the scanner to that group's frequencies/modulations; Manual Scan keeps the old generic behavior.
- The LF 125kHz trigger pulse now actually works (was dead UI) — renamed "Relearn/Activate" to Trigger throughout, and the Scanning/Receiver screen automatically re-fires it every 5 seconds with a vibrate + "Reposition" cue on a miss.
- Fixed a crash on the Receiver screen's Re-Trigger key and a heap-corruption bug affecting radio setup.
- Redesigned the Scanning screen to match the rest of the suite.
CSIght_FoxEdition
- Replaced the old 60-board "Select your board" picker with the same ESP32 auto-detect every other Fox-Edition app uses — just plug in and go.
- Removed a leftover first-run "ESP32 DETECTED / Chip / FW / CSI" info screen; the app now goes straight from "Detecting ESP32..." to the main menu.
FoxLAB
- Brand-new "FoxLAB Companion" service — a from-scratch protocol relayed over UART, replacing the old Expansion/RPC bridge entirely, with a persistent SD-card activity log.
- Settings tab built out to full parity with the on-device Settings app: Display & Sound, Locale & Input, Menu Theme, Desktop Display, Alarm Clock, RGB Backlight, Power, Bluetooth, Night Shift, Device Name, Input, and a full Security & Privacy section (PIN, lockout behavior, and more).
- Device Name changes now wait for the app to close before rebooting, instead of dropping your connection mid-edit.
- Now advertises
foxlab.localalongside its fixed IP.
SubBrute
- Fixed a crash affecting 7 of the 9 brand groups, plus a heap-corruption bug shared with TPMS.
- New dedicated icons instead of the generic fallback.
Sub-GHz
- Fixed Saved → Emulate showing no buttons for almost every transmittable protocol.
- Restored automatic frequency-hopping on Read as a simple On/Off toggle.
- Fixed the per-protocol enable/disable list repeating one protocol's name across an entire group.
System / UI
- Fixed the shared loading spinner flashing for a single frame on fast app launches.
- Footer-button audit closeout — consistent rounded-pill button styling across the suite.
- Every Fox app now shares a common Apps-menu icon.
- FoxDeFlock now uses the same ESP32 two-channel auto-probe as CSIght instead of a manual pin picker.
Install
- Web Installer (recommended, no PC needed beyond a browser): foxfw.github.io/fox-web/flasher.html (Chrome/Edge)
- qFlipper: flash the attached
.dfu - Fox File Browser (wireless/SD-card) or Fox Update Downloader (fully wireless, no PC): see the Installing Firmware Updates guide
FoxFW-v2.0.8
FoxFW is a Flipper Zero custom firmware focused on Sub-GHz key fob tools,
a companion ESP32 app suite (WiFi/BLE recon, AI chat, file downloads,
captive portal and more), and a heavily reworked desktop/UI on top of the
stock firmware base. This is a big one: Garage Door Remote has been fully
rebuilt as a standalone app, TPMS scanning moved out of core Sub-GHz into
its own app, the ESP32 hub got renamed and promoted, and a new
screenshot tool landed alongside a batch of new bundled apps.
Highlights
New: Garage/Gate/Other (replaces Garage Door Remote)
- Garage Door Remote has been fully rebuilt and split out of core Sub-GHz
into its own standalone app - Garage/Gate/Other, reachable from the
Sub-GHz Mode Picker alongside Automotive. - 40 protocols organized into 11 switchable groups, each loaded as its
own plugin on demand - keeps RAM use low instead of holding every
protocol decoder in memory at once. - Read got a full redesign: silence-based auto-capture-and-decode, a
Read RAW mode, and idle Start screens for both that count down
("Start (3)" -> "Start (2)" -> "Start (1)" / "REC (N)") and auto-start -
press OK anytime to skip straight in, or Back to cancel outright. - Saved-file management (browse, Details, Emulate) and full custom
keystore support via the firmware's standard Sub-GHz keystore. - A dedicated low-RAM protection system - warnings, auto-recovery, and a
CLI soft-lock - keeps the app from crashing under memory pressure
during long Read sessions. - Works with an external CC1101 radio module, with its own status-bar
icon and settings. - Custom-button remapping (map a saved key's buttons to the Flipper's
d-pad) now works on every supported firmware, not just FoxFW.
New: Fox TPMS
- Tire-pressure sensor scanning, decoding, and field-editing, moved out
of core Sub-GHz into its own standalone app with a Fox-style UI.
FoxHub (renamed and promoted)
- Fox ESP32 Commander is now FoxHub, promoted into the main Apps menu.
WiFi menu (scan, saved credentials, recon/attack toggles), BLE menu
(device scan, tag detection - including FoxDeFlock's Flock Safety
detection), an HTTP/WebSocket bridge, a scripting engine, a Tags menu,
a raw terminal, and connection settings shared across the rest of the
Fox ESP32 suite.
New: Screenshot Tool
- Hold Back+Up together for 1 second, from anywhere - lockscreen,
fullscreen apps, or any windowed view - to capture the screen and save
it to /Screenshots on the SD card as a .xbm file. - A brief on-screen "Screenshot" confirmation box appears along with a
blue-flash-and-vibrate notification, so it's obvious the capture
landed without interrupting whatever's on screen for long. - View saved screenshots straight from Fox File Browser, or convert them
to .bmp with the new Fox XBM Converter below.
New: Fox XBM Converter
- Converts saved screenshots between .xbm and monochrome .bmp.
- Wired into Fox File Browser - .bmp files get a proper icon, and an
"Open With" picker appears for .xbm/.bmp files when the converter is
installed.
New bundled apps
- NFC Magic, FlipNote, RFID Detector, FlipTDI, Mass Storage, Weather
Station, SPI Mem Manager, DAP Link, AVR ISP Programmer, and Signal
Generator all now ship as part of the standard app set.
Garage/Gate/Other polish (this cycle)
- Fixed the Read/Read RAW status bar showing "Int" on the very first
Read of a session even with an external CC1101 attached. - Lowered the Read/Read RAW low-RAM warning threshold (10000 -> 8000) -
external CC1101 sessions run closer to the old threshold than internal
ones did, which was causing spurious "Uh Oh!" warnings during ordinary
use. - Redesigned the Read screen's top status bar to match the Automotive
Receiver's layout, and cleaned up a stray border line on the envelope
box.
Sub-GHz (core)
- Transmit screens for protocols with no custom-button remap data (e.g.
Kia V5) now show a proper blank d-pad grid instead of no d-pad at all. - Fixed the last remaining copy of the Kia V3/V4 Emulate "Protocol not
found" bug. - Frequency Analyzer and Modulation Analyzer no longer drop button
presses (including Back) during their brief launch window.
Also in this release
- FoxDeFlock fully documented in the ESP32 help guide (setup, scan
modes, detail screen, precision notes, known v1 limitations) and
fixed a build failure on Unleashed. - Minor updater-screen spacing tweak; two new names added to the
Friends of FoxFW credits.
Installing FoxFW 2.0.8
Recommended - Web Installer (no software required):
Open https://foxfw.github.io/2.0/flasher.html in Chrome or Edge on
desktop. Connect your Flipper via USB, click Install Now.
Manual - qFlipper:
Download flipper-z-f7-update-local.tgz, open qFlipper, and choose
Install from file.
DFU Recovery (Flipper won't boot):
Download flipper-z-f7-full-local.dfu, hold Left + Back on the Flipper to
enter DFU mode, then use qFlipper's Install from file. Once this
completes and your Flipper is booting successfully, install FoxFW via
the .tgz (Install from File) as normal to make sure the bundled apps
reinstall correctly.
If qFlipper shows an Unknown Error during install, delete the /Update
folder from the root of your SD card and try again.

FoxFW-v2.0.7
FoxFW is a custom Flipper Zero firmware built for power users, adding deeper Sub-GHz tooling, a full ESP32 companion suite, and a redesigned Fox Settings menu on top of the stock experience.
Highlights in v2.0.7:
Fox AI Chat — a new app to chat with Google Gemini right from the Flipper's screen over an ESP32's WiFi connection. No API key setup required, it talks to a shared Cloudflare relay. Every conversation is saved to chat.ai on the SD card.
FoxDeFlock — a new app that detects Flock Safety BLE surveillance tags over an ESP32 connection.
Fox ESP32 Firmware bundled at v1.2.2 — required for Fox AI Chat, and includes an accuracy fix for Flock Safety tag detection.
ProtoPirate updated to upstream v3.2 and renamed "ProtoPirate (Fox Edition)".
Added the MP3 Player app.
Main Menu Apps: pinned items now use a star icon, apps can be given custom short names, and a couple of labeling bugs are fixed.
Text input: fixed a rendering glitch and improved focus behavior when a field reaches its max length.
Fox Clock: added a Back-button hint, and long-press Back now exits.
Install via the Web Installer, or flash flipper-z-f7-full-local.tgz / flipper-z-f7-update-local.dfu (and then .tgz) manually. Full docs at foxfw.github.io/fox-web
FoxFW-v2.0.6
FoxFW is a custom Flipper Zero firmware built for power users, adding deeper Sub-GHz tooling, a full ESP32 companion suite, and a redesigned Fox Settings menu on top of the stock experience.
Highlights in v2.0.6:
Fixes a v2.0.5 regression where the RGB Backlight Mod (Rainbow/Wave effects) stopped turning off with the display backlight and would run indefinitely, even in standby. RGB now follows the LCD backlight's on/off state again, matching v2.0.4.
Fox Alarm Clock's "Keep Backlight On" setting now keeps the RGB backlight in sync automatically.
Reworked the Fox Clock screen's Left/Right shortcut — Left turns the backlight off immediately, Right turns it back on (following the Keep Backlight On setting) — without changing the saved setting itself.
Thanks to sebedebx for the help debugging the RGB backlight module.
Installing: Use the Web Installer — no software required, just connect via USB. Choose Standard Update (installs flipper-z-f7-update-local.tgz) for a normal update. Alternatively use qFlipper and select "Install from file" and choose the flipper-z-f7-update-local.tgz file. Only use DFU Recovery (flipper-z-f7-full-local.dfu) if your Flipper is unresponsive and won't boot normally; DFU only restores the firmware itself, not your installed apps, so run Standard Update again afterward to get your apps back.

FoxFW-v2.0.5
FoxFW is a custom Flipper Zero firmware built for power users, adding deeper Sub-GHz tooling, a full ESP32 companion suite, and a redesigned Fox Settings menu on top of the stock experience.
Highlights in v2.0.5:
Fox Alarm Clock: the old "Clock Lock" screen (long-press Down) is now Fox Clock, with a full alarm clock built in — multiple alarms, each with its own time, day-of-week repeat pattern (or one-time), and independent Active/Beep/Vibrate settings. Alarms fire in the background no matter which app is open, and the ringing screen appears the moment you're back at the idle desktop.
Fixed RGB Backlight Mod cutting out after about a minute and showing the wrong color.
Fox Settings menu reorganized for a more logical layout, with a few items renamed (Main Menu Apps, Battery & SD Icons, ESP32 UART).
Hold Right on the idle desktop now cycles through your Custom Wallpapers — a quick way to switch without opening Fox Settings (replaces the old configurable Favorite — Right Long shortcut).
Wallpaper Painter (foxfw.github.io/fox-web) can now import your Flipper's currently active wallpaper straight into the browser editor.
Install via the Web Installer, or flash flipper-z-f7-full-local.dfu / flipper-z-f7-update-local.tgz manually. Full docs at foxfw.github.io/fox-web.
