ProtoPirate

for Flipper Zero

⚠️ Warning: Important Security & Project Update

Main repo is located at: https://protopirate.net/ProtoPirate/ProtoPirate

All others are read only mirrors!

ProtoPirate is an experimental rolling-code analysis toolkit developed by members of The Pirates' Plunder.

The app currently supports decoding for multiple automotive key-fob families (Kia, Ford, Subaru, Suzuki, VW, and more), with the goal of being a drop-in Flipper app (.fap) that is free, open source, and can be used on any Flipper Zero firmware.

App is intended for educational and security purposes only, and has no signal transmission enabled by default. This prevents users from accidentally desyncing their keyfobs, making it safe for non-specialists.

Features

📡 Protocol Receiver

Real-time signal capture and decoding with animated radar display. Supports frequency hopping.

📂 Sub Decode

Load and analyze existing .sub files from your SD card. Browse /ext/subghz/ to decode previously captured signals.

⏱️ Timing Tuner

Tool for protocol developers to compare real fob signal timing against protocol definitions.

• Protocol Definition: Expected short/long pulse durations and tolerance
• Received Signal: Measured timing from real fob (avg, min, max, sample count)
• Analysis: Difference from expected, jitter measurements
• Conclusion: Whether timing matches or needs adjustment with specific recommendations
