Other than that yes, and it builds, it is just too big :-) Get 10.3.1 out of your path.

maybe easiest is to change provision script to prepend downloaded compiler path instead if appending it to the PATH

Ok, i'll give it a go. Thats a tight build if the compiler changed the size enough to make it not fit!

Welcome to my world. It's a constant fight to try and get everything in - if you look back at the commits you'll see I've spent literally months making small commits to try and shave a few bytes off here and there.

I figured that what embedded developers do for fun ;)

I'm able to flash the bangle1 and get bangle one there. I just commands @gfwilliams runs before sending a watch out. What the setup to make a watch function as if its getting send to a customer. The way I'm doing is doesn't include all the launchers and apps. So i can go to esperuino IDE and upload stuff. I just don't see any of the apps.

To flash i run this
echo "load bin/espruino_2v21.84_banglejs.hex" >> gdbinit
echo "load bin/espruino_2v21.84_banglejs.elf" >> gdbinit
echo "load bin/bootloader_espruino_2v21.84_banglejs.hex" >> gdbinit
echo "load bin/bootloader_espruino_2v21.84_banglejs.elf" >> gdbinit
echo "load bin/espruino_2v21.84_banglejs.app_hex" >> gdbinit

I remember from this post you do a make .... flash then do a gdb file load. But the flash command only works with segger tools because it uses "nrfjprog"

if you just do a BOARD=BANGLEJS RELEASE=1 make that's enough to build bootloader+app+softdevice in one, so you just upload the final file

To install JS, you have to do that from the app loader - just "install default apps". On BJS1 there's not enough flash to store a 'factory reset' image like we do on BJS2

So my bangle 1 watch seems to be acting wear when i program it. I see the booting part fine. So i know the screen is ok. Just when it loads after that the screen just produces garbage. I cab load a program on it fine just the screen doesn't seem to want to display data correctly.

So I've reset the flash

• require("Storage").eraseAll();
• installed "installed default apps"

Is this with your modified firmware, or with a build directly from what's on Github?

Posted at 2024-04-29 by user156811

This is directly from github

This is directly from github

you can also try binary from https://www.espruino.com/Download and upload over DFU
If that looks OK then it is probably something with your build environment.
If it is broken too then you possibly have some HW issue like bad flex cable contact etc.

I just tested and this happens to me too! 2v21 is fine

In bootloader mode the display driver is very simplistic and 'safe'

When Bangle.js runs I believe we push the display as fast as we can get away with (adding some NOPs where it was too fast), and it seems that the new compiler we started using since 2v21 is a bit faster and manages to cause problems! I've added some NOPs and it's fine now!
