GC-03 here. I was not able to flash the file in the folder "install" as written for the GC-01. It was too big to be able to copy completely to the usb flash. |

Thanks for your report! Could you please check the Hungarian translation? The translation file is available here: https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/blob/main/platform.io/src/system/strings/hu.h |

Most of the Hungarian seems okay, albeit not necessarily Hungarian sounding (e.g. duty cycle I'd keep in English, this is a tool for people with a level of understanding of the topic, they'll know the English terminology and the Hungarian version doesn't make much sense even in the context). One note: For the chess game... I think for English, as well as Hungarian, it would make more sense to call this Difficulty (Nehézség) instead of Strength. Just my 2c. |

In the context of chess, strength is the preferred term! |

The GC-01 with the APN processor shows the battery charging regardless of the state. When not plugged in, it looks as if it charges. Edit: when the battery is full and plugged in it shows a solid battery without a flash. When disconnected it shows a flash through the battery, so exactly inverted, and the vibrator buzzes shortly. When plugged in again, no haptic feedback is noticed. |

Just flashed on my GC-01 with APM32F103R8. Fought with install for a while, eventually discovered that pasting the .bin twice in a row before disconnecting USB got it to boot. "Does the battery indicator correctly show USB-powered / charging status?" - Icon does change state when connecting/disconnecting USB but the icons appear inverted. Charging icon when unplugged then normal grey battery icon when plugged in. Everything else behaves as expected, thank you for the release! |

To those with a APM32 GC-01: does the battery indicator work with test2? jdogg836: does the battery indicator work with the original firmware (V1.5)? |

APM32 Geehy GC-01 here. With test2, battery indicator still shows charging even when not connected to a charger. In addition, I am getting a firmware checksum failure. |

@Gissio Yes the original 1.5 works as intended. |

When connected to USB, does it distinguish between charging and charged? |

I have 2 GC-01's, both APM32, one brand new, one from ~2 years ago, previously flashed with RadPro, and working well. Battery indicators on both now show always charging on the beta firmware. EDIT: Battery icon was working on an old version of RadPro. Not working on 3.0.2 either. |

I’ve just flashed my FS-5000. Unfortunately, it no longer powers on afterward. The only thing that still works is the LED when it’s connected to external power. On battery power, the LED lights up when I press a button, but nothing else happens. I suspect that the voltage is not being read correctly and the software assumes there is no power at all. A few hours earlier, I built the test version and set base->SQR1 = 0 (was channel) in adc_set_setsampletime to get it running. That resulted in the same behavior. |

ok... had to find a point on the board to connect NRST, found one at C22 behind the LCD. Mass erase worked. I'm back. |

I have the same problem. With the beta, only the green LED is on while the power button is pressed. |

I'd suggest putting a little delay (2-3s) at the very beginning of main() for the beta builds. So that it’s a bit easier to reconnect to the MCU if something like this happens again. |

I'm really sorry to hear that. I've double checked and don't see how SWD could have gotten disabled. I'll report back once I have news. |

many thanks for this fantastic job..... I own both APM and CH versions of GC01, 3,1beta1 works on both units. ..just a couple of things I've noticed.

If your tube is 87 mm, use M4011. If it is 107 mm, use J305. It seems there are Chinese clones of the J321 with both 87 mm and 107 mm versions. What matters is size. Will be expressed more clearly in the next release. |

The battery indicator on my GC-01 (APM) is stuck on charging even if the device is unplugged |

I have the same issue. Also, when I left my GC-01 running overnight, in the morning it was powered off and had factory reset itself - not sure if it's related. Battery should have been fully charged before I left it, but it was instantly powering itself off again (and factory resetting each time) when I tried to just power it back on. Charging it at the moment and will report if it does it again. Also APM32 version. |

Gissio, CH owner here. I can confirm seeing the same battery indicators as 1n5aN1aC did with their APM32. Unplugged - random number bouncing with the most common reading 0 and usually stays low. For those having issues with the test firmware: I used to get the booting to a black screen issue but I haven't had this issue with my GC-01 CH since I started following this process:

So it allows distinguishing between fully charged (~2700) and not usb powered/charging (~5). Great! |

Mystery solved! On STM32 MCUs, input pins are typically configured in analog mode when used with the ADC. However, it turns out that configuring a pin as a digital input with internal pull-up still allows the ADC to sample the voltage. This is exactly what FNIRSI does in their firmware to detect the “not plugged in” condition. I wasn’t aware this was possible, so I had assumed analog mode was required. Will be fixed in the next release. |

Keep up the good work and hopefully the GC-03 will be working just as well soon! |

I recommend not loading the firmware i[-fnirsi-gc01-en-3.1test6 the fnirsi gs 01 ch32 for now. I transferred it to memory, but the device stopped booting. Windows reported an unrecognized device, and the flash drive doesn't appear. Maybe I did something wrong. |

@oleg-shevchenko: The sound indicator only shows up when you toggle pulse sound. This is done to avoid permanently taking up valuable screen space. |

@jdogg836: That’s really great news you are sharing! Thanks for testing. Btw, antialiasing made it back to the CH32 (barely, because there’s only a few bytes left)! Does it look ok? |

@Gissio Now that you mention it, I noticed something but I couldn't put my finger on it. Looking again now the fonts look much better, the difference is especially obvious on the Day theme. Thanks for all of the effort you're putting into this! |

To those with a Bosean FS-5000: We need to locate the bug that stops Rad Pro 3.1 from booting. Could you please install this test firmware? It should blink and do nothing else.

Thanks for pointing that out! But I think the issue is timing-related. You mentioned earlier that 3.1beta1 runs when built in debug mode: the difference in timing is probably the key factor. |

Disabling ADC1 before calibration and adding state checks to the enable/disable functions fixed it for me. Might not help a lot, but at least it boots. |

Thanks a lot! Now I finally understand what was going on: There is a bug in the new ADC handling logic (needed for the FNIRSI GC-03). It was trying to turn off the ADC even when it was already disabled, which - only on the STM32L431 - led to getting stuck in the adc_disable while loop. Thanks again for helping track down the root cause. Really appreciated! |
