Closed Ciumaros closed 2 months ago

Ciumaros commented 3 months ago

Hello!!! After updating the fw to the latest revision I have noticed an poorly gps lock. Before fw update, the t-beam got a gps lock in 1÷3 minutes maximum after power on and now it passes 20-30 minutes. I usually comute to work and the comute lasts about 20 minutes, therefore now it does not even starts transmitting and I have reach my destination.

Hi,

can you tell me which version of T-beam do you have there on the board and which Environment did you use to upload it?

Ciumaros commented 3 months ago

Yes, the board is t-beam t22_v1.1 and I have compiled and uploaded the fw with visual studio and platform io latest versions

richonguzman commented 3 months ago

ok, but did you use the environment for the "ttgo_t_beam_v_1" ?

Ciumaros commented 3 months ago

Yes! Now I notice new simptoms behaving behaving weerd, even if it gets gps signal. It tx for first beacon then no tx except manual. Tonight I will try to recompile the fw and uploaded it and if continue I will revert to old version of fw... To identify device problem or fw problem.

if you dont for more than 50 or 100mts (depending on the settings of the tracker) it will only send one beacon each 15 min.

The configuration is outdated. It is no longer smart_beacon but smartBeacon that stores beacon information. Update the contents of the data directory and upload it.
