I tried to install this fork by installing Sonota firstly in my Sonoff Touch T1, compiling this fork from Arduino IDE and then WiFi upgrade from Sonota firmware but I had no luck to boot after upgrading. Maybe it works for you.
I'm interested too, can't find the way of uploading into sonoff t1 via ota.

OTA is working as in the master branch. Therefore you should not see any differences there
OTA works for me as well. What kind of problem do you have? It might e that you want to install Tasmota for the 1st time. 1st time I installed Tasmota using the serial connection because I read that there are problems/is not possible to install Tasmota for the 1st time using OTA (anymore).
I install tasmota sonoff-mini (Full sonoff is over 500K in size) via serial to overwrite the original then use OTA to load stefans great version
So I have to buy a sonoff dual and then via OTA I can directly install this firmware downloading it from stefanbode GitHub?
If you buy an ITEAD sonoff it will come with EWelink firmware which will not allow OTA of tasmota. So you have to the serial link upload first (See Tasmota GitHub/youtube for loads of info on uploading)
There is sonOTA which used to work directly with EWelink but last time I look it had been blocked.
BTW. I started off using a dual but I'm going to use the T1's (EU Dual) as it's will be a direct replacement for the current 230V switches in use now (just need to add neutrals to each switch). This gives manual/Auto control and if the home automation crashes (I'm using Hass.io) then the touch buttons can still be used to control the shutter.
I am using Dual R2 with the addition of RF (buttons), so I can also control shutter with RF (up/down) in case of a crash of home automation (not tasmota/ESP) There is RF support build into tasmota.
Ok i checked on mirko's wiki, for a sonoff dual r2 sonota should work with the firmware 2.0.1. For other firmware I have to flash by serial. Now I didn't understand if stefanbode fork Is already included in the tasmota firmware that sonota installs via OTA or I have to change to firmware file.
No, it doesn't include in Sonota. You should install stefanbode fork binary after sonota installation.
Ok once I have installed tasmota, what to do? I should be able to connect to sonoff page through ip and select the device and the wifi ssid and password. How to install the binary?
You have Firmware button where you can browse to the binary file, and upload it.
Ok thank you for the help!!
I would like to use a itead sonoff dual (putting only the pcb board into the wall) and connect my phisical switches to the pins button 0 - 1 and ground. Should It work? And also, moving manually the blinds should I see the percentage of opening changing on tasmota page (or on homeassistent if I integrate tasmota on it)?
The binary I got last week from Stefan's zip file does not work, see his wiki shutter section Go to the bottom of the page to sonoff_template reference. You have to compile the binary yourself. Both buttons will then work. HA will see the position if you manually change the shutter using the buttons - use the sketch that Stephan has created
position_topic: stat/sonoff/SHUTTER1 The is the line that HA uses to keep track of shutter position
Sorry but how to compile by my self the binary file?
Most information can be found on original Tasmota wiki: https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/wiki Here is for example how you set up Arduino IDE where you can build binaries yourselF: https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/wiki/Arduino-IDE
Sorry but i'm finding difficulties... Does the file firmware.sonoff.bin in the bin direcory works for shutters if I upload it through the tasmota user interface? Or do I have to compile following the guide for setting up Arduino IDE downloading the zip file in the code section of stefanbode repo??
In a previous post, you asked about how to compile the binary file, so I've answered this. But there is precompiled binary: https://github.com/stefanbode/Sonoff-Tasmota/blob/master/bin/firmware_sonoff.bin that can be loaded using "Firmware Upgrade" button in the web interface.
I found that Stefans precompiled one of the external contacts (not sure which one Button 0 or 1) did not work on the DUAL R2 that I had - as per Stefans notes. micdg96 If you want the version I did give me an email address and I'll send it to you (347K zipped)
Ok thank you. There is some way to send a private message?
Think I've loaded the binary into GitHub (never used github before !) https://github.com/lsd87/Sonoff-DUAL-Binary
Lsd87 thank you really! So with this firmware i Will Be able to use and itead sonoff dual r2 with both phisical switches working (i have to solder the switches on the button pins on the board) if I config like you wrote in the readme?
Its the one I'm using on my dual :-)
Hi, sorry for the stupid question but i'm new in the world of tasmota. In the Wiki I didn't find any instruction on how to install this firmware (I want to install the stefanbode fork in order to controll shutters) on a sonoff dual... Can you give me some explaination on how to do It?
