#pinedio — Public Fediverse posts

list of tech goals over winter break:

[] home server setup (wip)
[x] #LoRa #Pinephone back case meshtastic connection
[] figure out LoRa #PineDio usb communicator
[] pinephone fingerprint back case
[] actually maintain #framebufferphone
[x] read the Pragmatic Programmer
[x] figure out what's wrong with my #ppkb (charging circuit :/)
- and probably more i'm forgetting

i've got a bit of work to do

i just placed my second-ever order from the @PINE64 store, including a #rock64 and needed power supply and casing, a new #ppkb as mine has unfortunately stopped working long past its warranty period, a #pinedio pinephone add-on case, and a #pinepower desktop power supply. can't wait to recieve and start tinkering with my new toys!

📡#PineDio gateway .img available. (02.26.2022)

#Debian + #RAK2287 Concentrator + #GPS enabled/packet forwarder running.

Switch between #Chirpstack private #LoRaWAN + #TheThingsNetwork easily.

#Blog post w/screenshots of chirpstack-onion command demo on #PineDio Gateway image.

As mentioned, it's optional, but creates a very simple, single command pathway to adding #encryption + worldwide #chirpstack access.

#Chirpstack as a Tor Hidden Service?

Run this simple #bash script.
:tor: 🙂 📡

🔐 Automates process for you, generating encryption keys/onion, for end-to-end #encryption + NAT punching (no firewall changes needed).

Tor hidden services can be a valuable way to add security/encryption, while keeping access restricted only to those you share your onion and login/password with.

11.30.2021 .img includes:

* Updated #Chirpstack (enabled by default)
* Automated grow rootfs to disk size
* New SSH key for every PineDio flashed (created first boot)
* Timezone set on first ssh login
* Default password force changed on first login
* Chirpstack: https://IP:8080 (your own #LoRaWAN)
* #TheThingsNetwork (optional)
* #pinedio ascii art

Here's what we discovered from the Pogo Pin Probing ... For #PineDio Stack #ST7789 Display Connector 🤔

https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/pinedio#problem-with-st7789

Nope nothing appears on #PineDio Stack's #ST7789 Display 😭

https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/pinedio?15#does-it-work

#PineDio Stack uses the 3-Wire Interface for #ST7789 ... Instead of the familiar 4-Wire Interface

https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/pinedio?11#st7789-display

#BL604 GFX Library is indeed Bit-Banging 9-bit data to #ST7789 ... But #PineDio Stack Display is still blank 🤔

https://github.com/lupyuen/bl_iot_sdk/blob/3wire/customer_app/pinedio_st7789_bitbang/pinedio_st7789_bitbang/demo.c

#PineDio Stack SPI Port is exposed on the GPIO Connector ... Shall we connect a Logic Analyser to troubleshoot #ST7789 Display? 🤔

Packed #ST7789 9-bit data looks correct ... But nothing appears on #PineDio Stack Display 🤔
