Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Good Morning Georgy.?
I love what you are doing here. The CW decoding is unmatched!
With the new release, I am having some issues with CW and FT8. Using a straight key, the coding feels like it sticks, but doesn't with the?legacy firmware. Also, FT8 shows activity on the waterfall, but isn't decoding. I also don't seem to be putting any FT8 signal out as I have in previous releases. I don't remember needing to change any settings, other than to add my grid and callsign. Is there something else?
Connecting to Wifi was easy, and adding 60m was also simple. Thanks again for these enhancements!

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Once I noticed, that when battery voltage was relatively low (without external power) and I turn on WiFi - radio shuts down, like you described. I guess, it might be a hardware protection of the low voltage on the line, that power MAIN board.

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Strange things, but don't know if 0.28 related because did not happened to me before. Today forgot ext. power in, switched it on and left for a few hours just listening. Sound was playing all the time, but when I saw black screan, pressed Power button to switch on screen (thought it gone off), but no reaction, no other buttons or knobs were functional, wifi connection to router was gone, but radio still playing sound. Connected ext. power in and pressed Power and seen full booting procedure on screen with radio still playing last frequency. Wifi connection and full functionality restored. Disconnected external power, radio still playing, battery gauge show 5.7V 0% and some time after, all repeats, screen is off, but radio still playing sound. Looks like only software (linux) do shutdown but not hardware, which still functions, but can't be controlled. About year ago I used poweroff command through ssh and result was sth familiar but don't remember details. Unfortunately not catched screen behavior. Looked into app_logs on DATA part but strange, found nothing. My charger setting is Shadow. Let internal battery charge a little and switched on with OEM latest firmware. When battery gone down to 6.2V countdown appeared and shutdown proceeded. After OEM on/off cycle checked again with 0.28 while watching screen. Something changed, this time there is no screen off with audio playing symptom - radio just dies completely at 5.5V without? any warning - repeated 4 times.

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Command from x6100_webserver is for developers mostly. So, if you want to launch it on your PC - you may execute these commands.
If you want just use webserver, that already launched on the radio - just open in your browser. Of cause, your radio and phone/pc/mac should be connected to the same network.

If your X6100 is connected to wifi - open go to "File Browser" and download ADI file. You also can use radio IP address (from the WIFI screen) instead of `x6100` in the address.
Or you can turn off the radio, insert SD card to the PC/Mac and copy file from the DATA partition.
Sometimes Windows assign a letter only for the first (BOOT) partition. If you see only one partition in the explorer with boos.scr and 2 another files - open partition manager and manually assign a letter to the DATA partition (3rd on the SD card)

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Georgy,
For not running the?
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
The x6100_webserver was installed into /usr/bin and it runs with the
x6100_webserver --db params.db command and I can connect to the webserver from my PC.

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Looks like you are trying to launch webserver on the X6100. It's already installed and running, you can just open in your browser.

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
Georgy,
When I run the "python -m venv .venv" I get an error: Error: Command '['/root/.venv/bin/python', '-m', 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1. The directory .venv was created but not completely populated as there is no "activate" in the .venv/bin directory, just some python links.

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0
When Xiegu came out with the 6100.....it was ok.
But now, Georgi has taken a diamond in the rough, and polished it....and keeps polishing it to a sparkling diamond.
I call mine the Georgi 6100. That's how much I enjoy the radio.
And thanks to Oleg also.

Georgi!
I can't get the touch screen to work, which is necessary to configure the wifi among other things.

Re: Root access after firmware update.
Big thank you to everyone who helped. Radio not plugged in was the issue.
I now have better audio. I was on the verge of buying the Yaesu FTDX-10 for its enhanced transmit audio but am happy with this modified firmware so can keep the x6100.
The radio has the latest V1.1.9 APP and I can confirm the modified firmware works great with it.
If there is anything I can do in return I'll be happy to help.
Thanks again!

Re: Root access after firmware update.
Are you plugged into a power source, it's necessary, if not the radio switches off.

Re: Root access after firmware update.
Thank you for the extra info.
Managed to get file copied.
The only remaining issue is when I select the new firmware and select upgrade, The radio instantly turns off. When I switch it on the upgrade was not done.
Any ideas?

Re: X6100 alternative firmware v0.28.0

If external keyboard is not attached - on screen keyboard should appear. Perhaps, you need to unplug keyboard and reboot radio.

Radio have no touch screen. To type a password for WIFI rotate MFK knob to select a character and press MFK knob to enter.
