Kaj SchittecatandClaude Opus 5 503b2fe1f2 touch: sound previews obey the master switch (#464), exact telemetry position (v59)
#464 (PD0RCM, T-Deck Plus): "I can hear the sample sound and the volume change,
but not incoming messages." That board has the hardware, and previews and
arrivals go through the same playback function on it, so the audio path was
never the problem.

Every preview on the Sound page played UNCONDITIONALLY: the sample, the volume
steps, and each per-type toggle. An arriving message checks the master Sound
switch and Do Not Disturb. So with the master off the page chimes at you the
entire time you configure it while nothing ever sounds on arrival, which reads
exactly like a broken notification path and is almost certainly what he hit.
A preview is now silent precisely when a real notification would be, and says
which of the two silenced it rather than just going quiet. The master switch
keeps its own confirmation chime, because that fires exactly when you turn it
ON, which is the one case where a sound is the right answer.

Telemetry position (v59, honza_87628, via Discord): the advert displacement of
#399 was extended to telemetry answers because a privacy setting a telemetry
request walks straight around is a hole rather than a feature. He then made the
fair counter-argument that an answer is not a broadcast: it is encrypted to one
contact who already holds the permission, and it only goes out because they
asked. Losing the ability to give trusted contacts a real fix is a real loss.

So make it a choice instead of an assumption. New tail field telem_loc_exact,
OFF by default, so the private behaviour is what you get unless you say
otherwise, and the broadcast advert stays displaced either way. The switch sits
directly under "Share my location when asked", where the decision belongs.

Schema 58 -> 59. The host test enumerates every appended field and caught the
change, as designed; all three of its migration assertions are updated and it
passes.

WADAMESH

A real touchscreen UI for your mesh radio. · open source · GPL-3.0

Touch-UI MeshCore companion-radio firmware for the LilyGo T-Deck / T-Deck Plus, Heltec V4 + TFT and eight other boards (ESP32-S3).

An LVGL touch UI — map, chat, contacts, channels, settings — split out of meshcomod. The app depends on a MeshCore fork via PlatformIO lib_deps.

Boards

See DEVICES.md for the full support matrix, install paths and per-board status.

Architecture

This repo holds only the app: the companion_radio glue, the ui-touch LVGL UI, each board's glue/variants, and platformio.ini. The MeshCore core is not vendored here — it's pulled as a library via lib_deps from the ALLFATHER-BV/meshcomod monorepo (the same repo as the non-touch firmware), pinned by a lean source-only core-* git tag. The touch-app files this repo owns (TouchPrefsStore, WifiRuntimeStore, the transports, …) are dropped from the lib via -DMC_VENDORED_TOUCH_APP so they aren't compiled twice. The build is byte-identical to the original in-tree meshcomod firmware.

Lua apps use the on-device SDK described in LUA_APPS.md. For WAV/MP3 playback, including a ready-to-sideload transport test app and exact SD and internal-storage paths, see AUDIO_PLAYBACK_TESTING.md.

Build

PlatformIO pulls the core fork and all libraries automatically:

pio run -e heltec_v4_tft_companion_radio_usb_tcp_touch   # Heltec V4 TFT
pio run -e LilyGo_TDeck_companion_radio_touch            # LilyGo T-Deck
# or just `pio run` to build both

Flash with the NVS-preserving 4-component chain (bootloader / partitions / boot_app0 / firmware at 0x0 / 0x8000 / 0xe000 / 0x10000) so saved Wi-Fi credentials survive — not a merged image, which 0xFF-pads and wipes NVS.

License

GPL-3.0-or-later — see LICENSE. wadamesh is copyleft: anyone who distributes a build or a fork must also make their source available under the GPL. This keeps the UI open and concentrates community effort instead of fragmenting it into closed forks.

wadamesh incorporates and depends on MeshCore (MIT, © Scott Powell / rippleradios.com) and other third-party components — see NOTICE for the full list and their licenses. MeshCore-derived files keep their MIT notices; the combined work is distributed under the GPL (MIT is GPL-compatible). The MeshCore fork that wadamesh builds against stays MIT on purpose, so its Wi-Fi/BLE hooks remain upstreamable to MeshCore.
