Use compact scalar crypto, reviewed GNSS version parsing and shared CLI reply copies for RAK3401/RAK4631 repeaters. Preserve keys, protocols, commands and configured capacities.
Both Reduced images save 11,580 bytes. SWD measurements on the RAK3401 found scalar-only signing still near 50.9 ms and key exchange near 38 ms. Keep compact field arithmetic off: its extra 4.3 KiB saving adds about a quarter second and delays radio servicing.
Validate Full and Reduced production OTA packages on both boards, focused crypto/GPS/CLI tests, and linked ARM crypto outputs. Include the RAM benchmark harness and scoped results. No live RF packet-loss qualification is claimed.
Repeated preamble/header activity can keep a requested primary or TempRadio
change busy indefinitely. Bound unfinished-RX admission for accepted LR2021
changes while preserving completed packets, TX, BUSY and exclusive owners.
Ordinary scans and CAD keep their existing admission rules. Expose the failing
stage and native status through get radio.apply.
Add saved radio.xtrim capacitor calibration and measured radio.freqerror in
signed Hz from the last valid LoRa packet. Preserve native trim by default,
restore explicit calibration after resets/Morse, verify saves before applying,
wait two seconds for the acknowledgement, and roll back failed changes.
Calibration motivation and prior upstream work:

Packet-status format follows Semtech's LR20xx driver and RadioLib staging.
Tests execute production activity/admission and transaction paths with noisy
RX, completion races, protected owners, failed setters, RX restart and save
rollback. Physical W12 retuning and RF calibration still require confirmation.
Detect OLED or the original stock TFT touch assembly in ordinary V4.2/V4.3
images. Add saved live display.type auto/oled/tft/off selection and report
the active selection in board output. Keep sensors on primary I2C, preserve
shared power, and isolate TFT FSPI from radio HSPI through sleep and changes.
Consolidate future picker/build choices only with application capability
proof. Retain exact legacy OTA identities and separate R8 hardware images.
Document controls and physical qualification limits.
Validation: five serialized Full builds with capability/size/RAM checks;
focused host tests, existing R8/T-Deck/OLED regressions, build-profile suite,
and picker/provider tests. V4.3 OLED live changes and off/auto reboot
persistence passed on Mercerwood. Physical TFT qualification remains pending.
