ANDROID XENO USERS: TIME TO UPDATE!
🚨 PSA: The XENOV3 firmware version v1.3.1 is now available! 🚨
When updating, please note the following steps for RGB versions:
- First, go to the firmware page in the app and click on RGB (located at the bottom of the screen).
- Then, select 1 Button RGB.
- Your saber will reboot (reconnect), and after that, click on Firmware Update to load the proper firmware.
No extra steps are needed for PIXEL versions—just update and go!
Update Highlights:
-
New Action Detection: Introduced a "knock/poke" action detection algorithm. Now, when you poke the ground, the saber automatically triggers dragging or stabbing effects. Poking the wall triggers melting effects, and a light wave cancels these functions. The light wave also cancels the locked state, and this is compatible with function customization.
-
Enhanced Sword Effect Control: Added a feature where pressing and holding the main button triggers the sword effect. Releasing the button cancels the effect.
-
Force Lightning Block: Now, while holding the main button and rotating the blade up, first left and then right, you can trigger the Force lightning block effect. Releasing the button cancels the effect.
-
Mutual Exclusion for Effects: Stab effects and pushing away the sword now have mutual exclusion, ensuring one doesn’t interfere with the other.
-
Optimized Stab Detection: Improved the stab effect and resolved conflicts with pull-off sword detection. The sensitivity of stab triggers is now linked to the pull-off sword sensitivity.
-
App Sensitivity Adjustment: Optimized the value and adjustable range of the app's tapping sensitivity, affecting how easily poking, downward stabbing, tapping, and melting actions are triggered.
-
Battle Mode Activation: To enter or exit battle mode with the saber active, hold the main button for 500ms.
-
Coexisting Modes: Combat mode and blocking mode can now coexist. In these locked modes, you can still turn off the saber by holding down the main button, and the lock mode settings will be retained after shutting down.
-
Bug Fix: Fixed an issue where holding the main button to maintain an effect could cause a forced shutdown.
-
Sword Dragging Effect: Redesigned the sword dragging light effect to make it more prominent and noticeable.

Troubleshooting
Q – My saber will not turn on or charge.
A – When you first receive your saber, please charge for at least 6 – 8 hours to ensure battery is fully charged.
Q - Yes, I charged the saber and it still does not turn on.
A – Follow the below steps:
- Unscrew the hilt grip and inspect the battery. Does it make good contact with the battery contacts in the electronics?
- Remove the battery by tapping the hilt against your hand to "knock" the battery out (do not use implements to pry it out as you risk damaging the battery, electronics or yourself).
- Gently bend the battery contacts outwards so they are less flat inside the chassis.
- Reinstall the battery, paying attention to the polarity (+ and - are marked on both the battery and the chassis).
- Attempt to charge again.
If these steps do not work, please contact us at here.
Q - Saber has no sound?
A – Saber may be in mute mode. Turn off the saber, then hold the button for 0.5 seconds to change sound volume.
Q - Saber loses either red, blue or green color, does not light up at all, or has no swing or clash sounds?
A - Charge the battery for one hour, as this is likely a low battery issue. Removing and reinstalling the battery may fix it if the issue is not related to charge.
Q - When charging, saber cues 'charging' then immediately indicated 'ready'?
A - The battery is not making contact properly with the plates inside. See above steps to fix.
Q – My speaker is having a lot of static sounds?
A – There is not enough voltage getting to your soundboard. Charge the battery to fix. More of a common issue with neopixel sabers.
