This branch extends the official MeshCore companion radio firmware for the **Seeed Wio Tracker L1**. Provides support for both the original OLED and the e-ink variant, with additional features and UI enhancements.
The e-ink variant targets the Wio Tracker L1 fitted with a 2.13″ GxEPD2 panel (250 × 122 px). All screens have been adapted for the e-ink panel:
- **Adaptive layout** — every screen reflows correctly in both landscape (250 × 122) and portrait (122 × 250) orientations
- **Display rotation** — configurable in Settings › Display; applied immediately and persisted across reboots
- **Scaled navigation dots** — dot indicators on the home screen scale with line height so they remain visible at all orientations
- **Clock seconds suppressed by default** — seconds are hidden to reduce per-second panel refreshes and extend display lifetime; re-enable in Settings › Display -->
- Extended language support with native Unicode rendering and input [Lemon font](https://github.com/cmvnd/fonts) alongside the original ASCII mode (Default font with transliteration)
- Enabled sensor screens with support for all onboard sensors (temperature, humidity, pressure, luminosity, CO₂) and GPS data
- [Messages Screen](./docs/plus_features/message_screen.md) — view and send messages, open message details, reply with quick messages or custom text, per-channel notification and melody overrides
- [Favourites Dial](./docs/plus_features/favourites_dial.md) — pin up to six contacts for quick access from the home screen
- [Settings Screen](./docs/plus_features/settings_screen.md) — configure display, sound, home page order, radio and system settings
- [Clock Screen](./docs/plus_features/clock_screen.md) — view time and date plus up to three configurable sensor values
- [Screen Lock](./docs/plus_features/screen_lock.md) — lock the device to prevent accidental keypresses, with a lock screen showing time and sensor data
- [Tools Screen](./docs/plus_features/tools_screen.md) — GPS trail recording and export, ringtone editor, auto-reply bot, and more
Both variants are built from a single codebase and share the same feature set. The `dual` in the filename means a single binary supports both BLE and USB serial — there are no separate BLE/USB builds.
> BLE connection has priority over USB serial. When a BLE connection is active, the USB protocol is suspended. When connecting to the companion app via USB, ensure to disconnect from BLE first or disable BLE directly from the device to avoid confusion.
1. Download the appropriate `.uf2` file for your display variant from the [releases page](https://github.com/MarekZegare4/MeshCore/releases)
2. Press reset twice quickly to enter bootloader mode (solid amber LED) - the device should appear as a mass storage drive on your computer
3. Copy the `.uf2` file to the drive to flash the firmware
Updating to newer firmware versions usually does not require erasing flash unless the release notes explicitly state otherwise. To retain your settings and data, avoid performing a factory reset after flashing unless you need to start fresh or encounter problems.
This fork tracks the upstream [MeshCore](https://github.com/ripplebiz/MeshCore) repository. To prevent upstream changes from overwriting this README during merges, `README.md` is protected via `.gitattributes`. After cloning, run once:
Contributions are welcome! Fork the repository, make your changes, and submit a pull request. Please ensure your code adheres to the existing style and includes comments where necessary.
> The screenshot feature requires the `ENABLE_SCREENSHOT` build flag to be enabled. Add `-D ENABLE_SCREENSHOT` to your PlatformIO build flags, then recompile and flash the firmware.
