🤖 Ah, yes, another #GitHub masterpiece that promises to revolutionize #communication with a mishmash of buzzwords like "Bluetooth LE" and "Reticulum." 🙄 Because clearly, what the world needs is yet another over-engineered app that only three people will ever actually use. 🚀

Over the past couple of days I've been quietly working on and adding support for a new device (OVERMAX Touch 2.6) to Gadgetbridge... and today I've seen the first tangible results! :ablobfoxbongohyper:

I waited a bit to post anything about it as I wasn't sure if I'd even be able to do it (it is my first BTLE RE project!) but while there's still stuff to be done, I've got to a point where I'm rather confident I can at least reach some basic level of support :neofox_cofe:

The watch itself isn't exactly a popular model iirc, but its companion app is not even available on the Play Store anymore (and it's rather sketchy too if you ask me) so having it supported on @gadgetbridge is already a big plus due to that!

(Btw that's my SO's smartwatch, in fact that's what made me start this project to begin with... and doing something that will help them is more than enough of a reason for me to keep going! :neofox_blep: )

Implementing Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast on Linux Systems

For the record, and as far as I've found out, #AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 chips (present in the most recent @frameworkcomputer #Laptop13, for example) dont support #BluetoothLE.

Which is a pity and turned my so promising synth-geeking-lunch-break into a exhausting-forum-search-session-to-fix-something-that-couldn't-be-fixed.

*sigh*

🔒✨ Oh, look! Jack Dorsey's back at it again, this time with a Bluetooth LE mesh chat app that screams "IRC nostalgia" while trying to convince you it's the future of secure messaging. 📡💬 Because clearly, what the world needs now is yet another messaging service to fix vulnerabilities — we just hope it won't crash faster than a GitHub Actions script. 🚀🤦‍♂️

This WAS a #PrincessCruises onboard tracking medallion. It's now recycled electronics. #BluetoothLE and #NFC, it was convenient as hell onboard, but I couldn't help but worry over the database it was connected to on the backend.

Very close to having solid #BluetoothLE support in @aprsdroid. SQ2CPA did the heavy lifting. I'm making a few changes to get it working reliably with TNC3/TNC4 and hopefully other dual-mode devices. #hamradio #aprs

The bag.builds guy (Davide) makes some amazing modifications and attachments for his system.

On the rear - not seen:

#glinet 1800 WiFi router
#AntSDR
Then here we have;
@hak5gear WiFi PineApple
#CatSniffer (BTLE, other)
#CC2540 BTLE sniffer
(Into RasPi5-01)
2 #Alfa AXML WiFi adapters
2 available USB (for expansion)
(Into RasPi5-02)
(3) #anker Battery Packs
(Much cheaper on Amazon used)

Not pictured is the #GDPWin3 running #KismetWireless @kismetwireless
(attached to 5Ghz WiFi on the GLI.net WiFi router)

All the RasPi and the antSDR are feeds to the KismetWireless server running on the portable hand held.

Lilbits: Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S now comes with up to 8GB RAM, modular laptop maker Framework to expand into new categories

The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S is a SODIMM-style version of the Compute Module 4. It has the same processor as the standard model, but the form factor restricts the I/O capabilities, so it’s not quite as versatile. And when it first launched in 2022, the Raspberry PI CM4S was only available with 1GB of RAM.

Now Raspberry Pi has announced that the CM4S can now be purchased with 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB of LPDDR4-3200 memory onboard. But you’re probably not going to find them in stores anytime soon – they’re positioned as a commercial product and sold in boxes of 200 or more.

Here’s a roundup of recent tech news from around the web.

New memory variants for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module family [Raspberry Pi]

Raspberry Pi notes that the goal was to make things easy for “industrial customers who are migrating from Compute Module 3 or Compute Module 3+” solutions by offering a version of the CM4 in the same form factor. But even with the new memory options, there are some downsides to the form factor: it lacks a PCIe interface, Ethernet connections top out at 350Mbit/s, and USB capabilities top out at USB 2.0, among other things. 

Confirmed: Google to Release a Pixel Tablet Without Dock, Sell Pen and Bluetooth Keyboard [ Droid Life]

Retail listings suggest that Google will soon begin offering the ability to buy a Pixel Tablet without the Speaker Charging Dock. New digital pen and Bluetooth keyboard accessories may also be on the way.

Here’s a first look at Bluetooth audio sharing in Android 15 [Android Authority]

First look at an upcoming Android 15 “share audio” feature that could allow phones to broadcast audio using Bluetooth LE’s Auracast feature, which lets you share audio with multiple nearby devices at once.

Framework won’t be just a laptop company anymore [The Verge]

Modular laptop maker Framework plans to expand into “additional product categories,” but isn’t ready to say what they are yet. Desktops? Smartphones? Tablets? Watches? Something else entirely? I guess we’ll find out… eventually.

Faking Bluetooth LE With An nRF24L01+ Module - Despite the name, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) has very little to do with the origin... - https://hackaday.com/2024/01/11/faking-bluetooth-le-with-an-nrf24l01-module/ #wirelesshacks #bluetoothle

Still no success - the #BLE sniffer shows me a CONNECT_IND packet and then nothing else. Encryption? If yes, it has to be a static key as there was never any key exchange between app and camera (the wifi key is "1234567890"). No idea on how to continue. #BluetoothLE

Hmm, how I love #BluetoothLE - my #homeassistant noticed someone in the neighborhood bought an Inkbird iBBQ-4

#electronicaFair: Interested in the next generation of #Bluetooth audio? Drop by booth B4.428 to see a fully #opensource Bluetooth LE (Low Energy) Audio solution implemented using #Linux, BlueZ & #PipeWire!

#BluetoothLEAudio #BluetoothLE #electronica2022

The #smartHome will have about a dozen of these #RaspberryPi units throughout:

• Raspberry Pi 3B(+) - runs #DietPi and #Chromium to #homeAutomation dashboard, and #Snapcast for audio.
• Touchscreen provides access to control lights & audio
• Room speakers are powered by connected iQAudio #DigiAmp+

Hope is that built-in WiFi & Bluetooth may also be used for internal positioning of phones, #BluetoothLE devices etc. in future.

PipeWire is getting ready for the next generation of #Bluetooth audio! Initial support for #LEAudio devices has now landed upstream: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/merge_requests/1360
