  HRM Accelerometer Event Recorder fails with

  Uncaught TypeError: Puck.connect is not a function
      at connect (custom.html:253:8)
  

  So maybe a change in one of the app loader core updates?

  I don't know anything about scanning or encoding bar codes, but could you maybe get this working by displaying the bar code diagonally on the display to get 2*95 pixels without scaling? It might throw off the scanners when slightly misaligned but could be worth a shot.

  Idea: Implement loading tiles along a GPX track into openstmap. So essentially set a scale, move along the track and upload as many tiles as are needed to cover the track in every direction. That would be great for using it as a background for gpstrek or similar apps. I have a implemented a prototype of using openstmap as background for my overview map, but getting good coverage for longer tracks is slow (as in upload time) and needs lots of storage.

  The overall shape is done (for now) and brushed over once just to see how it can look and before doing more I will have to wait on ordered M2 screws and a matching tap to hold it together.
  I still need to find a solution for getting the button PCB attached and try out if my chosen method of getting a button in there will work at all. I think this will need one more build anyway, so this one is dedicated to experiments :)

  Some more changes on aluminium and CAD sides... Actually a bit of matching drawing to reality :)

  Not yet, but wrapping it in aluminium foil showed that it could work. Otherwise no way to tell how it will pan out with this dark magic RF stuff before I can actually close the case and screw it down 😉
  If there are problems I can always cut some slots into the case and fill them with epoxy to try to get it to work.

• Banglejs2: How to extend the AGPS validity time?

  in Bangle.js • 3 months, 2 weeks

  

  Not really, since the uploaded data only contains these 24 hours of data. If you can find another file containing more data for the GPS chip you could use that. If you use Android/Gadgetbridge you could use https://banglejs.com/apps/?id=agpsdata to automatically update the AGPS data in the background.

  Thanks :) I cut down the top case a bit to get it closer the final dimensions and started carving out a bottom plate with material left for mounting the board.

  Tried the first few cuts. Went better than expected :)
