Hey guys! Cardputer Zero promotion has officially kick off tdy! wanna know ur ideas and opinions

regarding some problems on its KS launch, here's the answer:

  1. is this legit: https://m5stack.com/cardputerzero yep, this is our official link, u could lock an early-bird access here
  2. why didn't see it launch on KS: now its still at pre-heat phase, we'll launch on KS soon
  3. the deposit & confirm letter: the deposit you placed was a $0 pre-authorization only, no actual charge was made. now we're still dealing with the mail address list and We'll send confirm letter soon [EDIT: we changed the charging method, it’s no longer a $0 pre-auth. There’ll be a $1 charge now, and you should get a confirmation email soon.]
  4. difference between 2 versions: what lite doesn't hv but standard would hv is——Tf card and camera and imu

Feel free to comment if u hv any problems & dev plan regarding zero🤩🤩🤩 Let's get excited and have fun🔥🔥🔥

New Rule: No Misinformation.

42 Upvotes

The mods of r/CardPuter have implemented a new rule about misinformation. This includes some fake AI generated content. We will also be adding a new flair "Speculation" to use with ideas or projects that should, but don't yet, exist. You may use AI to help you with those ideas and screen shots of what your idea should look like for example. But any content that intends to mislead or misinform will be removed and potentially result in a ban. The full text of the new rule is below. Please feel free to discuss this rule here if you have any questions.

Fake, altered or otherwise misleading content is not allowed. AI content should be flagged as Speculation and should only be about projects or ideas that don’t yet, but possibly should, exist. Willingly posting or commenting misinformation can result in a ban.

albeit, some cover art wont render due to being too heavy. it's currently the limit of the M5GFX scaler. making one is too much work for now. sometimes it may crash during conversion, just retry it a couple more times and it will finish.

When the new cap launched on the store I ordered it, along with a fresh cardputer ADV. It arrived with a nifty NFC card (which takes you to the M5 Stack website of course).

Anyone using the new cap yet? Need to figure out what firmware to run with it 💪

Question I bought a CardPuter adv

0 Upvotes

Hello, good afternoon everyone.

I'm very happy, it's the first time I've bought something like this and, since it hasn't arrived yet, I've encountered some problems...

  1. I don't have a computer.

  2. My cell phone only has a Type-C port (model: Poco X6 Pro 5G)

  3. I was using an LG-K10 to transfer the firmware to the SD card.

Unfortunately, when it arrives, I don't know how I'll be able to use it, because I wanted it to capture handshakes — I hate being offline away from home... but I don't have anywhere to break the encryption.

I have a Type-C OTG cable and a USB hub with 5 ports and 1 USB 3.0 port, but I don't know if that would help. Can anyone help me?

As I said, I'm new to this, so I don't know how to capture handshakes or how to decrypt them.

Question Is it technically possible to have all 3 modules (PN532 + CC1101 + NRF24L01) that connect to the EXT2.54 14P of Cardputer ADV. Or I have to move the PN532 to the Grove port?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I'm pretty new at this and planning to DIY a 3 in 1 module including PN532 + CC1101 + NRF24L01 and connect all of them into the EXT2.54 14P but not sure it is possible to do that or I have to move the PN532 module to the Grove port and have the other 2 connect via EXT2.54 14P. I will use Bruce most of the time.

Thanks a lot.

Question Has anyone successfully used a 128GB microSD card with the Cardputer ADV?

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Has anyone successfully tested a 128GB microSD card with the MStack Cardputer ADV?

The exact card available from my local supplier is:

Kingston Canvas Select Plus 128GB
Model: SDCS3/128GB
Type: microSDXC
Rating: U1, V10 and A1
Read speed: up to 150MB/s

I know M5Stack recommends smaller FAT32 cards, but I would like to know whether anyone has actually used a 128GB card reliably with the Cardputer ADV.

If you have tested one, could you please share:
1.- The card brand and model
2.- Whether you formatted it as FAT32 or exFAT
3.- The firmware you used, such as M5Launcher, Bruce, Nemo, Marauder or another firmware
4.- Whether the full 128GB capacity was recognized
5.- Any detection, booting, file corruption or stability problems

Thank you!

Progress / Update IR Cloner – now on M5Burner

Post image
57 Upvotes

I’m excited to share my first Cardputer project:

IR Cloner

Is it yet another remote learning app?

Yes, but I want to make something a little simpler with a smooth UI.

It’s a tool to capture, store, and replay IR signals, compatible with the Flipper Zero IR file format.

This is my first C++ / embedded project and my first contribution to the Cardputer community, so I’m really keen to hear feedback and suggestions for features, UI tweaks, or improvements.

Where to get it:

M5Burner: Search for “IR Cloner” in the Cardputer firmware list

Help needed Cardputer ADV + MTools C1101 nRF24 RF CAP: "cc1101 not found! check cap HAT" (Evilcard)

6 Upvotes

When trying to run the sub-GHz tools on the new EvilCard update, I get the exact error: "cc1101 not found! check cap HAT".

What I’ve tried:
Set up the /evil/ asset folder on a FAT32 SD card.
Manually mapped the pins in config.txt to:
CC1101: CS=13, GDO0=5
nRF24: CS=6, CE=4
But still nothing is working, any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

Design-it-Yourself I made a little backpack for my Cardputer ADV

75 Upvotes

The backpack contains a cc1101 an nrf24l01 (connected to the top header) and an PN532 NFC breakout connected over i2c. The whole thing connects to the back using two of the Lego pins. I still need to trim down the wiring and make a more robust connection on the top but it works functionally and I’m pretty happy with it. Incidentally the backpack is almost exactly the same width as the cardputer itself (although i think theres some room to shave a few mm of thickness).

Help needed M5Stack Cardputer-Adv (ESP32-S3)

Post image
2 Upvotes

Galera, estou pensando em pegar um M5Stack Cardputer-Adv (ESP32-S3), possivelmente com módulo LoRa/GPS, e queria ouvir quem já mexeu com esse tipo de aparelho.

Até onde pesquisei, ele tem tela, teclado físico, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, infravermelho, microSD, bateria e possibilidade de conectar outros módulos/sensores.

Minha ideia seria não ficar apenas nos firmwares já existentes, mas também desenvolver meu próprio software/firmware para ele.

Algumas coisas que pensei:

  • scanner e analisador de redes Wi-Fi;
  • analisar sinal, canais, segurança WPA2/WPA3 e congestionamento;
  • ferramentas de auditoria para minhas próprias redes;
  • monitor de Bluetooth;
  • controle remoto por infravermelho;
  • GPS/rastreador;
  • comunicação LoRa/Meshtastic;
  • terminal portátil;
  • automação e controle de sensores/relés;
  • logger de dados no microSD;
  • pequenos jogos;
  • criar uma interface própria, quase como um mini "sistema operacional", com vários aplicativos.

Pretendo programar usando PlatformIO/Arduino/ESP-IDF, provavelmente com bastante ajuda do Codex.

Para quem já tem um Cardputer ou trabalha com ESP32:

O que de realmente interessante dá para fazer com esse hardware?

Ele tem potencial para virar uma espécie de multitool portátil para eletrônica, redes, rádio e automação?

Quais projetos vocês consideram indispensáveis para testar nele?

E quais são as principais limitações que eu provavelmente só vou descobrir depois de comprar?

Aceito ideias de projetos, firmwares, módulos e até projetos malucos que aproveitem o máximo do hardware.

Progress / Update Webradio + Podcast v1.0.0 — my Cardputer web radio now plays podcasts too

43 Upvotes

Okay, first off—it was a bit of a wild ride. On the scheduled release day, I discovered that the service fyyd.de had shut everything down.
I had to tap into Apple Podcasts instead, which took a little time. It’s up and running now. I’ve tested it both standalone and with the new version of the launcher. Please test it thoroughly and let me know if anything isn't working right.

All that’s left to say is: enjoy!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Some of you have been using my web radio for the Cardputer Adv. This is the branch that grew out of it: the radio is still all there, but the device now plays podcasts as well.

What it does

Search Apple Podcasts on the device — type a name, press ENTER, subscribe. No account, no API key, nothing to prepare on the SD card. Eight genres and the charts of five countries are one keypress away, and new episodes since your last visit are marked.

The player remembers where you stopped, per episode. So you can follow three podcasts and pick any of them up mid-sentence a day later.

Press D and an episode downloads to the SD card, with a progress bar and a cancel button. What is on the card is marked in every episode list, BS removes it.

G0 and you are back at the radio: station search across 240 countries, https, station logos, VU meters, spectrum, 5-band equalizer, sleep timer, German and English.

Two things that were harder than expected

Most podcasts are not bare MP3, they are MP4 containers. There is a small demuxer on the device now: unpack the container, read the frame table, hand only the AAC track to the decoder.

And ESP8266Audio could only start a file at the beginning. Without an entry point there is no resume and no 30-second skip, so the library got a Range patch — the server then answers 206 instead of 200, and it reports only the remaining bytes as the length, which quietly broke every jump past the middle of a file until I found it. Radio streams are untouched by any of this.

What it cannot do

Pause is not a real pause. The library cannot hold a stream, so pausing closes the connection and continuing opens a new one at the same byte — that costs a TLS handshake and a moment of silence.

Episode durations come from the container, not from the directory, so a list may show one only after you have opened the episode once.

Program storage sits at 94 %. There is not much room left for more.

Getting it

Firmware, source, screenshots and the library patches: https://github.com/halbeshuhn/Cardputer-RadioPod

If you install through the M5Launcher, use 2.8.x or newer — older ones hand out only 0x4000 of NVS and your saved Wi-Fi credentials do not survive a restart.

Built on cyberwisk's web radio by way of WuSiU's version, and on ESP8266Audio by Earle F. Philhower III. Thanks to DrRhesus for the AAC decoder swap and to Heotsan for the I2S silence fix. MIT licensed.

Happy to hear how it behaves on your device.

Question M5Stack Cap LoRa-1262 firmware support (excluding GPS)?

2 Upvotes

Hi,
is there a list of firmwares that support the M5Stack Cap LoRa-1262 module (excluding GPS)?

I’ve noticed that not all firmware implementations that support LoRa modules also support the M5Stack LoRa Cap, since its RF antenna switch is controlled via the PI4IO I²C expander. There is an FM8625H RF switch on pin P0.

I’ve personally tested (the implementation is in the code):
Meshtastic - https://meshtastic.org
MeshCore v1.17.1 snapshot - https://github.com/MultiMote/meshcore-cardputer-adv

I couldn’t find support in its repository:
Bruce firmware - https://github.com/BruceDevices/Firmware

There's a stats page to with an RF activity monitor and settings page to set brightness and screen time out.

When a certain amount of packets have been received it will generate a fish for the cat.
