Build issue about infinitime HOT 12 CLOSED

Sure no problem :-) I'm sorry that you had to get the first batch of PineTime watches, the upcoming batch will have built-in wireless flashing support.

Now that you have figured out how to build the firmware in the cloud, maybe you could experiment with Clock.cpp and make your own watch face :-)

Sure I understand. We have a newcomer who developed their own Watch Face without a PineTime, by simply editing Clock.cpp and building with GitHub Actions.

We'll have a tutorial on that soon (written by our newcomer). Check with me on Twitter or Mastodon for updates :-)

Hi: Building the firmware on Windows may be tricky... Would you like to try building in the GitHub Cloud with GitHub Actions? Here are the steps...

Oh sorry if you browse the article a little more you'll see this fix, please try this...

If we see this error...

/home/runner/work/Pinetime/Pinetime/src/drivers/TwiMaster.cpp:1:10: fatal error: sdk/integration/nrfx/nrfx_log.h: No such file or directory
 #include <sdk/integration/nrfx/nrfx_log.h>
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make[3]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/pinetime-app.dir/drivers/TwiMaster.cpp.o] Error 1

Browse to...

https://github.com/ACCOUNT_NAME/Pinetime/blob/master/src/drivers/TwiMaster.cpp

(Change ACCOUNT_NAME to our GitHub Account Name)

Edit the first two lines...

#include <sdk/integration/nrfx/nrfx_log.h>
#include <sdk/modules/nrfx/hal/nrf_gpio.h>

To...

#include <nrfx_log.h>
#include <nrf_gpio.h>

Click Commit Changes to save the file.

This triggers a new Firmware Build, which should succeed now.

Thank you for your answers !

Yes I noticed this just after I wrote my comment, it works and I managed to download the ZIP file.
The last problem is that Nrf Connect seems to have change a little bit and I can't find the way to download the zip with the DFU. on Android.

from infinitime.

Cool great! I think you need to flash the wired way the first time, after that nRF Connect will work.

Look in the "Other Options" section questions 4 and 5...

Do you have a Raspberry Pi? We will need to unprotect the Flash ROM with pinetime-updater as explained here...

https://github.com/lupyuen/pinetime-updater/blob/master/README.md#remove-flash-rom-protection

Then we can use pinetime-updater to flash the file pinetime-app.out (note that it's not the same as the other ZIP file)...

1. Download the artifact pinetime-app.out from GitHub Actions.

2. We'll get a ZIP file. Extract the PineTime Firmware Image inside: pinetime-app.out

3. Flash with PineTime Updater...

   • Run ./run.sh. Select Latest Bootloader to flash the latest bootloader

   • Then run ./run.sh again. Select Downloaded File and pinetime-app.out

   • Flash to address 0x0

If you're still stuck, come chat with us on the PineTime Chatroom on Discord / Matrix / Telegram / IRC: https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/PineTime#Community

Yes I still stuck because I have no Raspberry available right now..
I just managed to launch the Cmake command with OpenOCD but it changes nothing.
I posted a thread on Pine64.
Thank you for your time !

from infinitime.

The project is very interesting but unfortunately I can not yet build the code on my Windows, and even if I build it, I don't really know if it is possible to flash it over USB.

But thank you for all your answers !

from infinitime.

@thibww67 I have not tried it myself, but I think you should be able to build it on windows using windows subsystem for linux (WSL).

from infinitime.

I did not try to compile this project on windows, but this would be a nice addition. PR welcome :)

The documentation about NRFConnect is valid only if you've already programmed this project on your Pinetime. The stock firmware does not work that way.

You'll need a SWD debugger to program the firmware into your pinetime. And, as the Pinetime comes with the memory protected, you need a debugger than is able to unlock it (jlink, raspberrypi,...).
The memory won't be locked in the next batch, but it's not available yet...

I'm closing this issue as there's no activity for more than a month. @thibww67 reopen it if necessary.
