Wrong region locks applied to Sub-GHz Tx

What issues do you have with this one?

Also can you share with us vendor name of this system?

got the same message before but now it work

How is this performed? I have an EU version and am in the US.
What do I need to do in order to reprovision it to the US?

I tried changing the firmware to the RC then to the GA and the region remained EU.

The region gets provisioned based on multiple factors like your IP address, your SIM card location, among some others. It gets provisioned on every update, but works much better if you’re updating via the mobile app.

Region Jersey (JE) not allowing sub-ghz in many frequencies (annoyingly 868MHz)
Jersey has same regulations as UK :uk:

Also as my flipper says I have region 3 hardware will I not have access to Uk radio bands? If so why was I sent a region 3 flipper in the UK)

Hi, I am from Malaysia too.
I just update the latest version0.66.1, the frenq 433 still blocked in Malaysia. Therefore till now I cant use it on the Flipper.

Pudiste solucionarlo?

I’m in South Africa. We should have the same frequency’s as the EU. It looks like we currently fall under “the rest of the world” those frequency’s are definitely illegal and interfere with cellphone coverage. I’m confused as to how to change it to the EU ones.

@Astra could you please also check the data for Thailand with the document from this link (Government document)

My car is in 433ghz so I assume it should be ok

It’s good to see that we are making progress with more countries and regions properly added. :slight_smile:
Here’s the governance document for Singapore https://www.imda.gov.sg/-/media/Imda/Files/Regulation-Licensing-and-Consultations/Frameworks-and-Policies/Spectrum-Management-and-Coordination/SpectrumMgmtHB.pdf .
See Chapter 7 for short-range devices.

@Astra Is there a list of properly provisioned regions in the documentation? This is so that people in different regions can know if they can help by submitting the relevant governance documentation.

I have the same issue with my device.
I’m based in Germany and try to use a garage door opener on 433MHZ.
It’s clearly legal in Germany but Flipper blocks the transmission.

Attached the document from the German “Bundesnetzagentur” stating the legality. It can also be downloaded here: https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/Sachgebiete/Telekommunikation/Unternehmen_Institutionen/Frequenzen/Allgemeinzuteilungen/FunkanlagenGeringerReichweite/2018_05_SRD_pdf.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=7

Hi! Can you please check that your region got provisioned correctly? You can do it by holding DOWN on the home screen, there’ll be a string like R0X:EU (with X being 1-4). If it says something else, please send the screenshot of that sceen here.

The full list of frequencies can be found in our documentation: Frequencies - Flipper Zero — Documentation

Germany should still be in the EU right? :slight_smile:
How can we fix this?

@Astra I still cannot use the Flipper the Sub-GHz for my gate remote in Malaysia freq (433.5)
It still show “Transmission Block for the Region”.
I have checked with the MCMC documentation. It is a legal frequency range for amateur use, similarly in Singapore and Taiwan region.
Please unblock/update the Flipper for Region R03: MY
Technical document for Malaysia Weiterleitungshinweis

by the way, it appears that the windows program uses device regional format to determine region, because my flipper was set to R04:DE when the computer used was not in germany. please add option to select correct region, because I am sure that there are many expatriates and foreigners abroad who would benefit from this, thanks. even when I have now changed my regional format to fix this, it is still set to germany. how do I fix this?

if anyone is having the same issue, I used my cell phone and fixed it, it even allowed me to update it to the same version, only changing the region.
