## Meshtastic Ecosystem
|
||||
### Meshtastic Ecosystem
|
||||
|
||||
There are many technologies (and repositories) used in creating the Meshtastic ecosystem. Below is a breakdown:
|
||||
The Meshtastic ecosystem leverages a variety of technologies and repositories to provide a robust decentralized communication platform. This ecosystem is continuously evolving, thanks to the collaborative effort of developers, contributors, and the community, aiming to enhance and expand Meshtastic's capabilities for decentralized off-grid communication.
|
||||
|
||||
### Protocol Buffers
|
||||
Key components include:
|
||||
- **Protocol Buffers**: The backbone of communication and interactions, with changes and definitions managed in the [Meshtastic Protobuf Definitions repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/protobufs). For detailed information, see the [Protobuf API Reference](https://buf.build/meshtastic/protobufs/).
|
||||
- **Device Firmware**: Development for ESP32, nRF52, and RP2040 based devices occurs in the [firmware repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware), focusing on C and C++ code for hardware interaction and communication.
|
||||
- **Firmware Modules**: Extend the core functionalities of devices and mesh networks, implemented mainly within the firmware repository. Modules are essential for adding new features and integrating devices within the ecosystem.
|
||||
- **CLI Apps (Device Interface)**: The [Meshtastic Python CLI](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-python) enables interaction with device settings and functionalities, serving both as a utility and a library for application development.
|
||||
- **Web and JavaScript Apps**: Development for the hosted web server on ESP32 devices is done in [Meshtastic Web](https://github.com/meshtastic/web), with a JavaScript library for device interfaces available in [Meshtastic JS](https://github.com/meshtastic/meshtastic.js).
|
||||
- **Mobile and Desktop Apps**: Android, iOS, iPadOS, and macOS applications provide user interfaces for interacting with Meshtastic devices. Development for Android is detailed in the [Meshtastic-Android repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-Android), while Apple platforms are supported by the [Meshtastic-Apple repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-Apple).
|
||||
- **Documentation**: The source for the Meshtastic website and documentation resides in the [meshtastic/meshtastic repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/meshtastic). For guidelines on maintaining documentation, visit the [Maintaining Documentation](/docs/development/docs) page.
|
||||
|
||||
Most communication and interactions happen with protocol buffers. The [Meshtastic Protobuf Definitions](https://github.com/meshtastic/protobufs) repo is where all of the protocol buffer changes happen. See the [Protobuf API Reference](https://buf.build/meshtastic/protobufs/) for more details.
|
||||
This ecosystem is continuously evolving, thanks to the collaborative effort of developers, contributors and the community, aiming to enhance and expand Meshtastic's capabilities for decentralized off-grid communication.
|
||||
|
||||
### Device Firmware
|
||||
|
||||
The [firmware repo](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware) is where all of the device firmware development happens. This is where the code for the ESP32, nRF52 and RP2040 based devices is developed. It is mainly C and C++ code. Think Arduino. It is where the first level of hardware interaction begins and ends.
|
||||
## Supporting and Contributing to Meshtastic
|
||||
|
||||
### Firmware Modules
|
||||
The Meshtastic project benefits greatly from the contributions of our volunteers and the financial support from our community. As the project has evolved, the expansion of features and services has led to increased financial needs, including hardware for development, GitHub fees, hosting for public MQTT services, among others. This growth into a robust platform for decentralized off-grid mesh networking solutions showcases the dedication of our developers and the generosity of our financial supporters.
|
||||
|
||||
[Modules](/docs/configuration/module) extend device and mesh functionality beyond core functions. These are also implemented mainly in the firmware repo above. Typically, you would add functions in the protobufs repo and the device repo to implement module functionality. You probably also want to have some client or device, use or interact with the module. This is where Device Interface support comes into play.
|
||||
### How You Can Support Meshtastic Financially
|
||||
|
||||
### CLI Apps (Device Interface)
|
||||
If direct development contribution is not feasible for you, financial support is another invaluable way to help Meshtastic grow and thrive. We offer two primary options for monetary donations:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Meshtastic Python CLI** - The [meshtastic/Meshtastic-python repository](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-python) is a command line utility that allows you to interact with most of the device settings and functionality.

title: How to Update the LilyGo T-Echo Bootloader to the Latest Version
|
||||
sidebar_label: Update T-Echo Bootloader
|
||||
sidebar_position: 5
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
If you're experiencing issues with updating or flashing newer versions of the Meshtastic firmware, and your LilyGo T-Echo is not running the latest bootloader version (0.6.1), updating the bootloader may resolve these problems.
|
||||
|
||||
To check which version of the bootloader your device is running, place the device into DFU mode by double-pressing the reset button. Then, open the mounted drive that appears on your computer and check the INFO_UF2.TXT file.
|
||||
|
||||
## Updating bootloader
|
||||
|
||||
Below are the steps to update your bootloader.
|
||||
|
||||
### Method 1: Using the UF2 File (Recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download the Latest UF2 Bootloader File for the T-Echo from [Github](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/blob/master/bin/update-lilygo_techo_bootloader-0.6.1_nosd.uf2).
|
||||
2. Connect your LilyGo T-Echo to your computer via USB.
|
||||
3. Activate bootloader mode by quickly double pressing the RESET button on your T-Echo. The device should appear as a removable drive on your computer.
|
||||
4. Drag and drop the .uf2 file you downloaded into the T-Echo's drive. The device will automatically update the bootloader and reset.
|
||||
5. Once the device resets, the update is complete. Your T-Echo is now running the latest bootloader version and you can proceed with [flashing the firmware](/docs/getting-started/flashing-firmware/nrf52/drag-n-drop/).
|
||||
|
||||
### Method 2: Using adafruit-nrfutil
|
||||
|
||||
Should flashing the UF2 file to update your bootloader fail, you can use adafruit-nrfutil.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
|
||||
These instructions assume you have python and pip already installed. If you do not, please install the latest verion of python (which includes pip) from [Python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/).
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open a terminal or command prompt and install adafruit-nrfutil by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pip install adafruit-nrfutil
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Obtain the lilygo_techo_bootloader-0.6.1.zip package from [Github](https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/blob/master/bin/lilygo_techo_bootloader-0.6.1.zip).
|
||||
3. Connect your LilyGo T-Echo to your computer via USB.
|
||||
4. In the terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory where you downloaded the bootloader zip package and execute the following command, replacing /dev/ttyACM0 with the correct port for your device (Windows users might use COMx):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
adafruit-nrfutil --verbose dfu serial --package lilygo_techo_bootloader-0.6.1.zip -p /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200 --singlebank --touch 1200
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. Once the process finishes, the update is complete. Your T-Echo is now running the latest bootloader version and you can proceed with [flashing the firmware](/docs/getting-started/flashing-firmware/nrf52/drag-n-drop/).
