Add the framed BLE mOTA transport and companion control path, complete the full-profile build and runtime fixes, and document and test the OTA workflow.
Integrates Mike Carper's transmission-reliability work (direct retries with
SNR-adaptive backoff and CR, flood retry controls, alt-path replies, flood
channel gates) plus its upstream/dev base (as of 2026-07-06) on top of the
observer stack. The flex branch is untouched; this branch is the experimental
integration line.
Conflict-resolution decisions, for future re-syncs (git rerere is enabled and
has recorded these):
- NodePrefs adopts keymind/upstream member order + retry/flood tail. Member
order is in-memory only: /com_prefs stays field-by-field with the same
canonical file order both sides already share through offset 294; keymind
appends the retry tail at 295+ (new canonical size 676). Flex fleet files
load unchanged; retry fields default via direct_retry_prefs_magic.
- loadPrefsInt keeps the fork's legacy MQTT-gap recovery but moves its
detection boundary from 'extra > 5' to 'extra > LEGACY_MQTT_GAP_3SLOT (864)'
so keymind-size tails take the normal read path. COM_PREFS_TAIL_BYTES
retired.
- Dispatcher/RadioLibWrappers: fork watchdog additions + keymind TX overrides
and CAD busy counter are unioned; RxReservePacketManager::queueOutbound
follows upstream's new bool return (false when shedding).
- CommonCLI: fork observer dispatch + versioned /mqtt_prefs machinery kept;
keymind CLI (retry/flood/radioat) taken; duplicate CAD/FEM handlers and
sanitise lines deduped (kept keymind placements to minimize future diff).
- MyMesh (repeater/room): fork alerter/OTA/observer wiring kept; keymind
scheduled-radio system replaces the old pending_* temp-radio members;
applySavedRadioParams() replaces raw setParams at startup.
- ESP32Board: fork manifest-OTA + keymind powerOff/deepSleep and stopOTAUpdate
unioned; startOTAUpdate keeps fork's STA-aware IP with keymind's idempotency
guard.
- build.sh taken wholesale from keymind (fleet builds use GH Actions).
Verified: Heltec_v3_repeater_observer_mqtt, Heltec_v3_repeater,
heltec_v4_repeater_observer_mqtt, Heltec_v3_room_server_observer_mqtt build;
host migration harness (13 MQTT + non-MQTT scenarios) passes with updated
expectations (676-byte /com_prefs; odd-size files normalize on save, not
load); native unit tests 13/13.
Switch these existing variants from `nrf52_base` to `rak4631_hw` (which adds
ENABLE_OTA + the in-place flash store + the EndF post-build hook), so they get
OTA-over-LoRa. Scope is limited to variants already covered by the
Adafruit_nRF52_Bootloader_OTAFIX in-place apply — no new variants are added.
OtaTargets.h is regenerated to include their target ids.
Reverted prior dev merge, then merged current meshcore-dev dev. Resolved
CommonCLI by restoring MQTT prefs flow with upstream com_prefs layout
(rx_boosted_gain at offset 79), rxgain CLI, poweroff/shutdown, and FEM
variant files from upstream.
Made-with: Cursor
Enable GPS time synchronization across all variants by passing
&rtc_clock to MicroNMEALocationProvider. When GPS gets a valid
fix, the RTC clock is now updated automatically every 30 minutes.
Updated 16 variants: rak4631, lilygo_tbeam_SX1262, rak_wismesh_tag,
lilygo_tbeam_supreme_SX1262, thinknode_m3, heltec_v4, thinknode_m1,
lilygo_tbeam_SX1276, meshadventurer, nano_g2_ultra, heltec_v3,
promicro, xiao_c3, heltec_tracker_v2, keepteen_lt1, heltec_mesh_solar.
As all NRF52 boards now have OTA support, let's remove the subclass
and integrate it into the base class.

The schematic shows the LC circuit for the internal DC/DC regulator
to be available. Enable it to save power.

The startOTAUpdate() is the same for all NRF52 boards. Use a common
implementation for all boards that currently have a specific
implementation.
The following boards currently have an empty startOTAUpdate() for
whatever reasons and therefore are not inheriting NRF52BoardOTA to
keep the same state: Nano G2 Ultra, Seeed SenseCAP T1000-E,
Wio WM1110.

Use a common begin() method that can be called from derived classes
to contain the shared initialization code.
