Stop doing UI work nobody asked for. The 5 s housekeeping tick was
reading env sensors (I2C, 10-50 ms), the battery ADC (regulator
toggle + 8 samples, every 60 s), and re-rendering the display
unconditionally — all while the display might be off and nothing
on-air had requested any of it.
Now:
- render_sensors() reads env sensors only when the user is on
that page (event-driven, never fires during idle)
- battery refresh is lazy on ui_pages_render() with a 30 s
freshness guard; explicit ui_set_battery() calls also count
- the unconditional OLED rerender from housekeeping is gone;
real state changes (messages, BLE, button press) still fire
schedule_render() directly
Telemetry / stats paths read fresh ADC + sensors on demand and
were never using the UI cache, so over-the-air consumers are
unaffected.
1. USB takeover opcode mismatch
ZephyrCompanionUSB.cpp checked payload[0] == 0x03 with a comment
claiming CMD_APP_START, but CMD_APP_START is 0x01 (0x03 is
CMD_SEND_CHANNEL_TXT_MSG). The USB handshake silently dropped the
companion app's first frame on every connection; the app appeared
broken over USB until the user happened to send a channel message.
2. CMD_SET_ADVERT_NAME didn't propagate to BLE adv data
Name changes were persisted to prefs but the advertising payload
and GATT device name kept the old value until reboot. Added
zephcore_ble_update_name() and called it from the handler.
3. No advertising-health watchdog
If bt_le_adv_start() ever failed transiently (HCI timeout,
controller pacing), the device would silently stop advertising
and stay undiscoverable until reboot. Added an adv_running flag
and a 5s watchdog in the companion housekeeping handler that
nudges adv back on if it stops outside a connection. Tracks
Arduino nrf52's equivalent 10s watchdog.
