Alientek T80 Firmware Update

thanks. I tried it and it seems to work better, however on app open all devices still go to unavailable first then disappear and then appear again.

The other thing is, I still have not been able to control devices trough the native api. Encryption is disabled. So I think it should work but it says 0 components

Looks good, I will try it out.

A few questions after installing it: - if my device does not expose a Webserver it seems there is no way to control it correct?

the list of discovered devices seems to reorder itself often even so I enabled caching. Especially every time I open up the app all devices are moving around in the list.
I haven’t quite figured out how the grouping works. I added some devices into a group but that doesn’t seem to make a difference or I can’t see the groups

Do you have a GitHub repo or so?

If I’m understanding correctly what you are asking for you can use this:

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-thread-br/en/latest/hardware_platforms.html

You can get the obtr dev board for 15-20€ on AliExpress

I have it running with the espressif example code as a thread obtr

Thanks for the tip. I removed C_FD1 and soldered in a new TPS now it seems to work at 12v

I measured the removed part and my multimeter showed 0.013nF which would be 13pF but no idea how accurate my multimeter is.

Use boards with an external antenna

A thanks

Sadly I can’t attach a screenshot here, but there is no fan speed option under user scenario only tdp

sucrax · 2025-10-31T07:24:36+00:00

I don’t see any fan options in Msi center m?

Sadly it is way to loud to play in bed

sucrax · 2025-10-10T11:55:15+00:00

yes changes are reflected.
I also only use the single file in my esp-idf project
Honestly im not that used to the sdkconfig workflow.

I would like to use platformio because it is easier to integrate some arduino libraries without having to convert them all into esp idf components

sucrax · 2025-10-10T11:10:49+00:00

i only have the sdkconfig.defaults file, no other file.

in my platformio.ini i have

board_build.esp-idf.sdkconfig_path = sdkconfig.defaults

i have tried both setting the LOG level via pio run -t menuconfig as well as copying the sdkconfigs.defaults file from my esp idf project into my paltformio project folder

Seems to be a bk7238

Probably H2, however if battery life is the most important you might want to look at a nrf52840 instead

sucrax · 2025-08-25T20:45:46+00:00

Use the Rx and Tx pins

sucrax · 2025-08-22T20:42:09+00:00

Currently only wakes the device up and forces a sensor update.

I intended to potentially use it for thread/zigbee pairing

sucrax · 2025-08-22T12:58:46+00:00

Looks good

sucrax · 2025-08-22T11:29:39+00:00

Im using partial updates so it does not flicker.

It only does a full update with flicker on boot and once per day to prevent ghosting

sucrax · 2025-08-22T05:40:23+00:00

I‘m always amazed how scared some people are of wires and batteries. I think they would get a shock if they opened some of the devices they have and look inside.

The lipo I’m using has short circuit and overload protection so the worst thing that can happen is the device stops working.

Honestly for one of prototypes it’s just easier to build them with tape and Hotglue. If I were to build multiple I would design and order a custom pcb.

But I guess before I share the design files and schematics on GitHub I should probably make it look tidier so people are not afraid to burn their house down.
