# Work in progress
This is a custom firmware being developed for the [LilyGo T-Deck](https://www.lilygo.cc/products/t-deck), currently it is experimental & buggy while we are in beta status.
If you are familiar with or use [Internet Relay Chat](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC), we have a team of developers working on this project in **#comms** on **[irc.supernets.org](irc://irc.supernets.org)**, join us if you have ideas, bugs, or want to get your hands dirty & develope this project with us.
# Flashing the Firmware
###### Using VS Code
1. Add your user to the `dialout` group: `sudo gpasswd -a YOURUSERNAME dialout` *(You will need to re-login after adding your user to the `dialout` group for it to take affect)*
2. Install [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/)
3. Install the [PlatformIO plugin](https://platformio.org/install/ide?install=vscode)
4. Hold down the trackball on the device, turn it on, and plug it in to the computer.
5. Press **F1** and select `PlatformIO: Build`
6. Press **F1** and select `PlatformIO: Upload`
7. Press the RST *(reset)* button on the device.
###### Using ESP Tool
1. Take the `firmware.bin` file from the release page and download it.
2. Install [esptool](https://pypi.org/project/esptool/): `pip install esptool`
3. Hold down the trackball on the device, turn it on, and plug it in to the computer.
4. Confirm the serial device in your `/dev` directory *(Your device will likely be `/dev/ttyAMC0` or `/dev/ttyUSB0`)*
5. Flash the device: `esptool.py --chip esp32-s3 --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --baud 115200 write_flash -z 0x1000 firmware.bin`
6. Press the RST *(reset)* button on the device.
# Command & Control
###### Menu controls
The device will scan for WiFi networks on boot. Once the list is displayed, you can scroll up and down the list with the `u` key for UP and the `d` key for down.
###### IRC commands
| Command | Description |
| --------------- | --------------------------- |
| `/info` | Show hardware information |
| `/me ` | Send an ACTION message |
| `/nick ` | Change your NICK on IRC |

# Debugging over Serial
1. Install screen: `apt-get install screen` *(or whatever package manager you use)*
2. Plug in your device via USB.
2. Turn the device on, and run: `screen /dev/ttyAMC0 9600` *(again, this can also be /dev/ttyUSB0)*
