RideLink: reconstructing TVS SmartXonnect scooter communication
RideLink reconstructs TVS SmartXonnect scooter communication in an Android companion app. Protocol notes derived from static analysis of TVS Connect 8.13.2 map BLE GATT characteristics, connection steps and navigation and telemetry frames. The app forwards map directions and phone events to the display and records ride data.
