cvhviz. The M9's magnetometer was documented on the board and nothing had ever
talked to it. The driver is written from the datasheet's register map rather
than SensorLib, whose setOutputDataRate() writes the ODR into the OSR bits, and
the axis orientation is measured on hardware at four headings rather than
inherited from a declaration Meshtastic marks unverified and never uses. The
+-32 G range looks absurd for a 0.5 G planet until you measure the board's own
hard-iron bias at about 7x Earth's field.
Also carries several fixes found while testing on hardware: every Lua app opened
on a white page on keypad-nav boards (the focus highlight harvested the app body
as a target and reverse-video filled the page), a use-after-free in the Lua net
worker when an app closed mid-request, an unfreed http_get buffer, canvas pixel
buffers GC'd while LVGL still drew from them, one RTC I2C read per contact, and
map re-open costing 2.5 s on every visit.
Three changes on merge:
- The map tile-keep gate read `total && total < 4 MB`, so a board reporting
zero PSRAM -- the most constrained case there is -- landed on the roomy side
of the test and kept its tiles. Dropped the non-zero guard.
- gpscompass is 55 KB of Lua, more than every other app combined, and it wants
a magnetometer the seeded boards do not have. The author deliberately left
it out of lua_builtin.h; that intent now lives in the catalog as
"seed": false rather than in whether someone remembers to regenerate, since
the generator runs from a pre-build hook as of this branch.
- consoleModeToggleCb was defined inside a !HAS_TANMATSU region while the
Settings row that binds it compiles on every board, so the Tanmatsu link
broke. Moved it out. The console boot path is gated on CAP_CONSOLE alone, so
the switch now does what it says there too.
Built on all seven S3 envs plus both ESP32-P4 targets.

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.

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.
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.
