Clash not quite working. For the clash menu e.g. Volume and Gesture sleep

Hey Fett263

I was doing some testing for ProffieOS master 8 from Git-hub and the control for the Volume Menu didnt occur. What I did was hold power + clashed , the saber then made the force.wav sound and the saber ignited. According to the props/saber_fett263_buttons.h the gesture sleep and the volume control are hold power and clash.

So I reverted back to latest release (7.14) and try to use the volume menu but that also didnt work with the same behaviour. My fear was that board was busted. I tested the clash threshold on G = 3 G = 2.8 G = 1. I still couldn’t use the volume menu or gesture sleep menu.

To ensure that the clash detection on the board wasn’t broken i turn it on and confirmed the clashes would happen with the blade and without it.
I will download a new os from the latest is there anything on my config that I should look at.

Usually the first question when stuff like this happens is: What does the serial monitor say, unfortunately I know that’s not an option for you…

I’ve been meaning to try to write something that saves the serial monitor output to the SD card. Maybe I’ll have a go at that again…

I could try getting the usb to ttl thingo

That might easier for both of us.
Checking files on the SD card and trying to figure out what happened when is likely a fair amount of extra work.

yeah I got the usb to ttl from amazon, it should be at my place in 2 weeks. but it was cheap.

Force is a triple click, is it possible there’s an issue with the button? It’d be hard to do a triple click when you’re trying to keep the button held.

so for this issue and the os8 testing I got a usb to ttl so that I can connect the pins to the laptop. it’s coming within a few weeks from amazon, I’ll be able to do more testing without a usb. though if my button is busted all that testing will be for naught.
