Is this complete yet?
I have to watch a twelve minute video to understand this?
Will the bluetooth allow for wireless headsets?
Sadly, no.
Thank you for the video and information
that UI looks pretty cool. Reminded me of LVGL library.
Is it necessary to use a power adapter inside the box for a 12v Lithium battery recharge ?
No power adapter needed if your battery voltage matches what your Audio Amp and Bluetooth board need. Check the manufacture's specs of the board you choose. Godspeed!
@@JuliansRandomProject My amp stays between 15 and 36 volts my battery is 26,8 volts.
Link on big battery pleas??? 👍
Big battery for the T-Deck? I think I used this one amzn.to/3ynLRXS
@@JuliansRandomProject thank you bro'
I watched this video last week and I think I remember you're in Austin. I've gone to the website and messaged the meshtastic group here, but no response so far. Are they still active? A friend and I would like to meet some people to talk about it.
The AustinMesh folks are pretty active on Discord. Here's an invite: discord.gg/CqkTk3aw
Are you still doing repair work? I got a 746pro with the same issue, no transmit power. I don't have the tools nor half the skill set to solve it myself...
Sure am... but I have to cut off new incoming work occasionally. You'll want to fill out an intake form here juliansradiorepair.com and we'll send you a work order number if a slot is available. 73
unfortunately the antenna you linked is out of stock. Not sure if they will be back soon? Enjoyed the vid, nice attention to detail. Now I want a 3 d printer, lol
Meshtastic related stuff has been flying off the shelves and prices have double in a year. Could settle down soon... or maybe not.
Getting any closer?

Very good! Thank you. I myself have been actively using LVGL for a long time (I even sent PR) and I’m interested in joining your project. I just have to wait for the device to arrive
Exciting! Thanks for being a subscriber!
You don’t have Nintendo switch oled
First view of New UI at 5:47
do you know where i can get one
Join kiosk collecting groups on reddit and (although the platform sucks) facebook. Say hi and let the members know what you are looking for and then just hang out there, check in weekly and one will pop up. Godspeed
Thank you. The wife put the positive wire on the negative post on our car battery so I pray that the fuses are just blown.
I just ordered a ps vita 1001 and it’s labeled not for sale on the top right of the sticker on the back. What does that mean
Its either from a kiosk or from a press kit
So power mosfet has cooked on one side... I got it apart without issue. Problem was not enough solder on back of chip so the failed end had overheated... It happens My question now is what temprature solder paste to use to replace the new device to board and heat spreader... I have some chipquick 138 degree c but notice the max channel temp on spec sheet is the usual 175... But instructions, say to keep device below 140 which is sensible... Anyone have any experience in this area... Regards Bob
Bob, I only use chipquick to remove components, then clean and remove all chipquick and apply fresh 63/37 solder. hope that helps.
Esse rádio é um ótimo custo benefício 👏
Did he ever say what the piece is that goes on the dish??
Yep and it's in the description. antenna from Amazon: amzn.to/3Avavlz

Very nice ,waiting on my radio to arrive, thanks for the info.
You lost me at soldering 😭
I bought a TD-H3 maybe 5 months ago, and I love it! I've probably got 9 or 10 HTs, and it's probably my favorite. Especially considering the price. Actually, I'm probably going to buy another one......or two.
They really nailed it with this one. Top radio for 2024 for sure. And so affordable I bought a few for neighbors to give them a life line for times when cell service goes down or to use as dinner bells for the kids :)
How close are we to this firmware being available?
educated guess.... months maybe.
@@JuliansRandomProject Just release it already and block all bug reports for months 😂.

Thank you!! Worked great on my kids!
Omg you skip the antenna installation! Does it screw in or snap in?
Snaps into the circuit board (tiny Ipex connector) and screws into the gold SMA connector sticking out of the 3D printed part.

I'm a baby nubie female non tech older gal who's in charge of preparedness in my little family group. Always trying to close gaps and looking for alternative communication. I know these aren't for real long range but would help for monitoring and close communication needs. My problem is being so unfamiliar with terms, tech talk and just how the dang thing works has me sitting on a limb. I don't want to purchase, get the license and then stare at the radio like a cow at a new gate. Is there a group, teaching site, slow step by step instruction that can give this ole gal some confidence to buy and do all the things with these radios?
Hi Diane! Right now your best bet is to watch some "GMRS for Beginners" videos and to find a Dad at church thats just geeky enough and has the heart of a teacher to walk you through it. No one is reinventing the wheel here with radio. Folks are just adding on new features and moving things forward. You can do it! If you'd like some 1:1 help I'd be happy to hop on a quick call with you. Shoot me an email: info@juliansradiorepair.com
I’m new to Meshtastic I went crazy and ordered 20 heltec v3 and set 5 of them up for solar repeaters and routers. Then I got the tdeck and just started playing with that. Printed my own cases and even got my wife into it. The t deck was the only thing she wanted to use and I’m happy about that. Where I live zero cell service so mesh has been awesome. If there was an accident or car breaks down there is no way to call out for help. So between Meshtastic and GMRS I feel safer. I love the new look honestly I’m excited to try this new firmware. Just for fun I’ve been printing cases for GMRS hts that also fit a heltec v3. It’s been fun experimenting. So now I walk around with a GMRS btech pro and a heltec v3 built into one case. Just found this channel thanks to some random person talking to me on my mesh lol. Still searching to try and figure out if my memory card in my tdeck does anything?
Love the independence! Same, I've built dozens and deployed a few key high altitude repeaters. Glad you're getting the family on board. I saw the same HT/Meshtastic cases, I have it on my to-do list. Waiting for a smart one that utilized the TID Radios.
i just bought this radio a week ago, i love that it has more frequency range than the usual low end cheap radios like the widely known uv-5r, and the fact of being programmable with chirp over USB C is really hand something i already did was listening to air traffic, it sounds quite well considering the airport is at 10km and with a mountain in between ive also talked with someone who had a uv-5r and it worked quite nice being at 6km of distance; no repeater used, just radio to radio
whats the software download link?
Should appear here when ready: flasher.meshtastic.org/
@@JuliansRandomProject Thank you...is there a general ETA on it? Any chance to be able to test it out now, as it is ...unfinished?

@@JuliansRandomProject awesome! thank you ! will check it out , all thumbs upped :) hm...tried it but it seems to just end up making the keyboard glow, and nothing else happens after a flash :(
I've seen a few of these solder tutorials. A lot of them seem overwhelming with all the details but this one seems the most doable so I'm gonna give it a shot! Just one question, what temperature did you set your soldering iron to? What would you recommend?
Glad it's built up your confidence! Temp: 650F with plenty of flux. Godspeed! Let us know how it goes.
The no fan with light loads is a nice feature of this, because it's fan is LOUD. The perfect size to run a full sized fridge and a few LED light's. It may not be pure sine wave, but I never noticed any buzz or interference like other un-pure inverters I had.. It sucks the fuses did not protect it from my shorted out lamp. Oh well. They're cheap on ebay.
I’m wanting to buy a use Wii U on Facebook marketplace but I know they’re all going to be scratched and scuffed. How difficult is it to do a shell swap? Thanks in advance
Not hard at all if you go slow and move a part at a time. You got this!
looks neat, can't wait this beautiful firmware to be published.
I wonder if someday we’re going to find out these unbelievably cheap Chinese radios are bugged. When you see extremely underpriced priced Chinese computers and tv boxes, they usually have malware. Surely some radio nerd would have found that by now though, right?
If a bug existed it would need a high bandwidth way of getting sent back to the mothership. Easy for always plugged in devices with an internet account, less for battery powered, few miles range walkie talkies. My concern is an undocumented "kill tone" that if heard would erase the firmware and leave you with a brick. Unless the company/hobbyists publish the source code (and some have) this is possible.
@@JuliansRandomProject Yeah, that could be a legit issue. Good point
Hey i'm in the NE Austin area. i don't have instagram, how can i get a hold of you?
Come to the next AustinMesh meet up. I'll be the handsome one named 'Julian' . www.austinmesh.org/
Great Vid! Can I ask which Antenna U have on your Tid H-3 in the semi background there?
You're talking about stubby Bob! I got you. amzn.to/3zzWN4O Obviously not winning any long distance records but for around the homestead it's perfect! Good luck
Any idea when it'll be released.
Thanks for the sub! No firm date yet. But it's getting more buzz and support so hopefully soon. I'm not a software developer so I can only support with cash donations :) And spreading some of the excitement.
Awesome thanks. I will look up the V4V and donate. I think it will definitely make the Tde k what it supposed to be.

About three months ago I paid for my GMRS license and yes I got a email confirmation, as yet I have nothing to show for it. I did try a GMRS License Search but it shows No matches found. Thanks FCC for stealing my $35
FCC has a clunky website. Check some of the tutorials here on YT to see if a box wasn’t checked or a step skipped. Holding out hope that they’re being slow and you get something in the mail soon
Hey Man! Cool video. I picked up one of these a while ago and have done pretty much a total over haul of the guitar. But I have one question and , watching this video I am sure you can aswer it. What is the actual name of the 5 pin on board attenuator that you were adjusting for the volume whilst in DC mode? I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere hence I cannot get a replacement one. Thanks ,if you are still responding to this vid. Perry Fenton. Peace and love... always
Hey Perry! Are you talking about the blue box with an adjustment screw on the top? If so that's called a potentiometer. They typically have three pins. The amp circuit is pretty simple and I bet you could find a full replacement if its small enough to tuck in there and runs on 9 Volts. Something like this: amzn.to/3VCfFrh God speed brother!
Just ordered my T deck and happy to see this new UI.
I need to replace the off/on volume pot, what is it and where to buy ? Thanks.
You'll need to completely remove it so you can take measurements and find one that it about the same size. Or compare it to photos of other onese for sale on Amazon :) amzn.to/3KSEVVc and take photos of which wires go where before removing it. Good luck! Let us know how it goes.
I want that like now is there anyway I can find and download that even with bugs I don't care that looks amazing and so much more useful on a t deck
See if you can find a copy of firmware-t-deck-2.3.12.0e6f6e1.zip

Just picked up a couple T-Decks and kept seeing these great UI systems on others online and wondered how they got that. You will have to keep us updated on the release of this. I might be able to get my father to use it with a better UI.
You have to build it from source, the only difference between what is stated in the official documentation for compiling the firmware is that you have to switch to the tft-gui-work branch after cloning the repository and than proceed to compile using the wiki's instructions.
@@andreasantaniello8318 1. Switch to tft-gui-work branch; 2. clone device-ui repo into firmware/lib/; 3. choose your target platform; 4. compile; 5. flash
Thank you for this great introduction and the donation! Much appreciated!
The community really appreciates your hard work and attention to detail! Hope I can do more to support soon.
you are the one working on the T-Deck firmware? where can we donate?
Liked and subscribed!
Woah
You figured out the recipe of the secret sauce!
Meshtastic depends on cellphone tech and the internet, both will not work in an emergency or a gov. takeover situation. Hence it is a fun toy but worthless.
sorry bud. Meshtastic os 100% off-grid. I talk to folks daily on the mesh network with no internet or cellphone connectivity. This is UHF radio comms with data a data overlay for text messaging. What parts do you think need internet or cell?
It's funny how the loudest people are usually those that are clueless
Actually you can send messages without cellular or Internet service.
Why would you say something so incorrect so confidently?
Why do you people post a comment *BEFORE* understanding what you're commenting about?
So how much are you going to pay me for the five minutes I waited listening to your incoherent rant for global begging?
Begging? Is English your second language? I’m talking about value for value. If you don’t get value out of Meshtastic software then you don’t provide any value to them. So… not ‘begging’ :)
