ProtoPirate

for Flipper Zero

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.

Supported Protocols

Decoders:

• KIA V0
• KIA V1
• KIA V2

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
