wadamesh beta_43 (test channel) turns the browser control panel into a full remote app and fixes map tiles on the Heltec V4.

Flash it from flasher.wadamesh.com, or grab a -merged.bin below (flash at 0x0). Boards: LilyGo T-Deck and Heltec V4 TFT.

New - web control panel

The browser panel is now a full remote app, so you can run the device from a phone or laptop without picking up the T-Deck. Proper Chats, Contacts, Terminal and Settings tabs.

  • Contacts: search, sort and filter; each contact shows distance, coordinates and last-heard age; tap for the same actions as on the device (favourite, block, reset path, remove).
  • Discovered nodes appear in the browser with a one-tap Add to save them as contacts, so you can build your whole contact list from the web app.
  • Chats: pop-up notifications (with an optional beep) on a new message, and the open chat refreshes on its own as replies come in.
  • Acknowledgements and repeats-heard now show for messages sent from the web app.
  • A Settings page for the everyday options that make sense remotely, including live radio changes.
  • A quick-command button in the Terminal that drops common commands into the input.

Fixed

  • Heltec V4 map tiles: tiles downloaded but only the top of the map rendered (the rest stayed black). The 2 MB-PSRAM V4 was running out of contiguous memory for the tile grid; tiles now reuse a small fixed pool and only load what is on screen, so the whole map fills in smoothly again.
  • Heltec V4 remote/VNC: typing from a physical keyboard in the browser now works (it previously only worked on the T-Deck).
  • Remote-access screen on the device is clearer: the IP address is at the top, the explanation is shorter and more accurate, the toggles sit above it, and the address box only appears once remote access is on.
  • Terminal help now lists every command, on both the device and the web terminal.

Changed

  • The web app header shows the same signal, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and battery icons as the device status bar, and the title reads WADAMESH.
  • Contact and chat sort/filter controls open a menu to pick an option instead of cycling on each tap.
  • New developer Tile debug overlay toggle in Map options (off by default) for diagnosing map-tile issues.

This is a test-channel (beta) build. Devices on the beta update feed will offer it; stable stays on beta_40.
