Releases: meshtastic/firmware
0.7.5 beta
FINALLY! Fixed a super nasty bug in the bluetooth library code (that I didn't even realize was there). Any packets sent from phone to device had a fair chance of corruption if they were larger than 20 bytes. With recent longer packets in the 0.7.x tree this manifested as "mysterious loss of bluetooth comms".
Other fixes:
- Don't leak BLE handles (found while debugging the big bug)
- Fix out out packet errors if stress testing on big meshes
- Fix a hang that could occur (rarely) white trying to enter sleep
0.7.4
- Change nodenum and packet ID to be 32 bits (this should be backwards compatible with the apps, and this should be the last protocol change before 1.0). Longer nodenums enable the upcoming MQTT/internet gateway feature, longer packet IDs make the encryption more secure.
- @rradar and @slavino Improved the README. Thanks!
- Remove the rev1 BLE API (hasn't been used by recent apps)
- When using the USB version of the protocol, prevent the device from sleeping
- When using the USB protocol, disable the "next screen" button
0.6.8 beta
This is a quick small release to fix a serious bug that can cause repeated device reboots - introduced in 0.6.7. If you've installed 0.6.7 you should update to this release, otherwise it isn't critical.
0.6.7 beta
First beta release! 0.6.7 beta
- More progress on the full DSR implementation (which will make unicast messages more efficient)
- Add support for 4 byte node nums and 4 byte packet ids (will help security and enable things like UDP and MQTT)
- Support for @syed's nrf52 board
- Some changes ot the sx1262 driver to help @Dafeman's board effort
- Improve NRF52 debugging environment
- Add support for LCD displays
- Use receive duty cycle to make power draw on sx1262 radios dramatically lower
0.6.4 alpha
This is a major release with a lot of improvements (though possibly higher than usual chance of bugs). You'll need to update all nodes in your net with this version (or a later version) because at a protocol level there have been some changes. This is hopefully the last time the protocol will change before 1.0.
Major changes listed below (many smaller changes also):
- @mehuman improved the device install scripts and documentation
- @Dafeman fixed bluetooth pairing when you are unlucky and the PIN was a number less than 100000.
- Cryptography is now basically feature complete (though not reviewed by a crypto expert). Every channel is protected by an AES256 key and a rolling cypher.
- NRF52 based boards are now mostly supported (in addition to the ESP32 boards)
- TBEAMs will now charge faster than they used to
- Reliable messaging is now mostly complete (both unicast and broadcast). You'll need to update the android app though if you want to take advantage of this - see other thread.
0.6.3 alpha
A quick fix for the problem that everyone noticed ;-). Bluetooth receives were busted in 0.6.2.
0.6.2 alpha
Update: forum users report problems with this release so I'm removing the bin until I investigate.
-
fix the dropped packet bug. we now always listen before transmit for a few milliseconds. We also randomly jitter transmit times so the odds of two transmitters starting at the same time are super low.
-
Use ints for lat/long, which will improve accuracy on the map in the app (app update required)
-
limit max power on the rf95 to 17 dbm because 20 requires that we promise a 1% duty cycle or the part might overheat.
-
If we fail at convincing the GPS to switch to ublox protocol fallback to NEMA. I bet this will make the new tbeams with "neo 8m" GPSes work. Though I now kinda suspect those GPSes might be fake and they are just putting in cheaper generic NMEA GPSes
0.6.1 alpha
I had hoped to let this release bake at my house for a few days but... I botched the heltec builds per https://meshtastic.discourse.group/t/no-display-on-firmware-ttgo-lora32-v2-us-0-6-0-or-firmware-heltec-us-0-6-0/167/5
So this has all the recent changes. Seems to be working quite nicely on my nodes though. Notably: it does not have my fix for sometimes dropping messages, that will be released by monday.
Changes since previous release:
0.6.0...0.6.1
0.6.0 alpha
A lot of changes since the 0.4.3 release. Not urgent to upgrade unless you want to use the new python API.
0.4.3 alpha
oops, recent builds were all using US frequencies. If you are outside the US, you should upgrade ASAP (and really really - soonish I'll turn on software update from the android app)
Thanks to @spattinson and @eugene for the report. I'm sorry about my mistake.
