I just did the same - the app prompted me to do the main update, but then had to go and do the second update to get the 100Nm option.
A stronger Bosch SX and improvements for the CX coming on July 14th

Has anyone experienced problems installing the second update? It does show up but I get an error when trying to install even though all the requirements are met…
My Gen 5 has this part no EB11 100 00E

Ghost-Bikes (german brand, I Ride the E-Riot CF 2025 Full Party with CX5 800Wh) just told me on the phone, that I’ll have to visit my local bike shop (Bosch partner) so that he can connect it via his BOSCH-OEM-software to access the 100nm upgrade. The 750 watts are already there via iOS-Flow-app.
Reason is: When releasing/producing the bike Ghost didn’t allow that upgrade, so the bike shop has to quickly talk to the manufacturer to make a setting that allows the upgrade. Takes 10-15mins I was told. Gonna drive by tomorrow afternoon.
And maybe this circumstance also reflects the problems other users have with their bike (brand).

On my new Crestline S180 I’ve updated/downloaded the flow app twice after installing the update.
Also I get 750 watts but it’s still limited to 85nm on the sliders.
After months of anticipation and we get this frustrating update BOSCH.
What’s up?

I check again this morning and I am unable to update the motor to 100nm, also, deleted the app, reinstalled and still nothing. Have you had any luck with your Crestline?

Interestingly the app showed me the update. Then it didn’t work. After reinstalling the Flow app the update isn’t any longer available and not shown…

No change. I deleted and reisntalled the ap several times.
DJI vs updated Bosch review coming soon?
Might make a great comparison
I am following this debacle ......fortunately not in respect of a gen5 update since both my motors are gen 4. I'm in the UK using Android and not only is there no update showing on Flow but the version I have is the same as on the app store (1.27.3). The update for gen 4 is an increase in assist from 340% to 400% and the addition of EMTB+ so not as extensive as the gen5 update but there are probably significantly more gen 4 in use than gen 5s .
It is about time Bosch entered the conversation!!

The android update was said to follow the iOS update by a week. So I imagine next week it should be available.
Yes, the update is not as extensive for the gen 4 as the gen 5 but you have to give Bosch credit for still offering some performance updates to a superseded product they are no longer producing.

Still no sign of any update on Play Store here for either my Gen 5 or Gen 4 bikes and from the Flow app. it says I am up to date with version 1.27 (3) I guess I will have to be patient.

I'm in the same boat as some of you, got the 750w upgrade and boy what a difference! However I cannot yet access the 100nm upgrade. I called Bosch customer service and was told this is a rolling update and it could take a day or two for the ability to power up becomes available.

I get the option for the 2nd 100nm update - but get this error when I try and install it.

Exactly - have you found a workaround? Doesn’t matter because I don’t get the update dislplayed any longer
I have 1.27.3 (1101). With no update option for the app or the bike. This was after uninstalling and reinstalling. This looks to be another variable, the ability to even update the app to the proper version. I know app updates are available based on device and OS version compatibilities.

I strongly suspect the update is not yet rolled out to all regions and mobile service providers rather than being a variable or some specific requirement/criteria of your mobile phone or bike. I don't have it yet (still 1.27.3) and based on previous updates I don't typically get them until 3 or 4 days after others here have reported their availability!

Seems to be a huge problem in random locations and regions ( me included). Apparently there’s a second motor performance update that increases the Nm, some people have it pop up, others don’t.
Frustrating and quite disappointing really after all the hype leading up to it
