Hi everyone,
does anyone know if there are plans to add support for the new Heltec T096 (https://heltec.org/project/t096/) to the RNode firmware?
I think the T096 looks very promising because it utilizes the same PA as the V4 but is based on nrf52 to save power in idle.
Thanks!
I have added preliminary support for T096 in my repo and flasher.
Transmission and reception has been tested "on the table" between two Nomadnet instances. No range testing has been conducted. From the looks of it, the T096 uses the same front-end as a Heltec V4.3.
There are issues with screen flickering on refresh that I haven't been able to fix. Maybe someone more experienced can take a look.
I also haven't looked into the PMU yet.

I have updated the firmware for the T096 and now it supports colored elements and uses the native 160x80 resolution of the panel with additional indication of battery voltage and TX/RX boxes on the display. It is now my daily-driver RNode.
