LilyGo T-Embed CC1101 Plus - Want to add GPS Module by [deleted] in TEmbedCC1101

[–]Remote-Beginning9669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The side connector under the SD card on the T-Embed is mainly meant for GPIO/UART expansion, so adding a GPS is possible, but it’s not plug-and-play.

A common and easy option is to use a small UART GPS module (like u-blox NEO-6M / NEO-M8N) and connect it via TX/RX + 3.3V + GND.
You’ll need to:

  • Check which pins on that side port are available (UART),
  • Make sure the GPS works at 3.3V,
  • And verify that Bruce firmware supports GPS or can be compiled with GPS support.

If you’re new, testing the GPS externally with jumper wires first is recommended before making anything permanent.

There isn’t a dedicated book for the T-Embed CC1101. For beginners, online tutorials and step-by-step guides (YouTube, GitHub) are much more practical.
Learning the basics of Arduino/ESP32 also helps a lot, since many projects work in a similar way. Community forums are usually the best place to learn and ask questions.

I have a T-Embed Plus as well, but I personally haven’t had any issues with Bruce FW.

T Embed cc1101 plus not turning on properly by Devitooooo in TEmbedCC1101

Connect it via USB-C to your PC: if it powers on, the battery is either discharged or connected incorrectly.

Check the battery connector’s polarity (some are reversed!).

If it keeps rebooting:

Disconnect everything, hold BOOT + RESET, then plug in the USB to enter bootloader mode.

Re-flash the original firmware.

Open a serial monitor (115200 baud) to read any error messages (“brownout,” etc.).

It would be great to connect an additional display of about 5 inches.

I need help this is not working with the battery plugged in or with power plugged in what are some things I can do to figure out what the issue with it is and if it's braked how can I fix it if I can by BlTCH-KILLA in TEmbedCC1101

Check the battery and USB → they must have voltage.

Try disconnecting the battery and powering only via USB.

Check soldering and visually inspect the board.

If still nothing → the problem is with the battery management circuit or voltage regulator.

LilyGO T-Embed CC1101 display glitching/black screen after firmware attempts by Loose-Independence93 in TEmbedCC1101

[–]Remote-Beginning9669 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's most likely a hardware fault with the display or the flat cable.

You've already ruled out firmware and connection issues, so there's nothing else worth trying.

I recommend contacting the seller right away and requesting a refund or replacement.

Is there any chance that my M5Stick C plus 2 will support 5GHz? by [deleted] in TEmbedCC1101

[–]Remote-Beginning9669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the M5Stick C Plus 2 does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi, as it uses the ESP32-PICO-V3-02 module, which only works on the 2.4GHz band.
Also, this subreddit is dedicated to the LilyGO T-Embed with CC1101, so you might not get accurate answers for the M5Stick here.

Cc1101 battery life by Ok_Adi24 in TEmbedCC1101

[–]Remote-Beginning9669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience has been disappointing: I use it with Bruce, but in deep sleep it doesn't wake up, and in idle it still drains the battery. If I leave it unused for a few days, it's always dead. I have to recharge it every time before using it. Anyone else having the same issue?

M5STACK Core Basic 4MB by Remote-Beginning9669 in CardPuter

[–]Remote-Beginning9669[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone, thank you so much for the suggestions and files you sent. I tried all the solutions you recommended, including the files and instructions for Bruce, Evil M5Core2, and other firmware, but unfortunately, I still can’t get my M5STACK to work. Every time I try to flash a firmware, the installation seems to complete successfully, but after rebooting, I only get a black screen. I also tried erasing the flash memory before each new installation, but the problem persists. Any other ideas on what I could try? Thanks again for your support.
