custom firmware
you can use the ACKspace modified firmware by setting https://ackspace.nl/WiPhone/WiPhone.ini
into the ota.ini file (or via the telephone)
Current applied patches:
- LoRa 868MHz
- ackspace.nl fake NAPTR (hardcoded IP)
- fix fiddly unlock (mentioned here)
Work in progress:
- LoRa menu (currently crashes the phone, don't use)
notes
- read documentation here
- report bugs at https://github.com/ESP32-WiPhone/wiphone-firmware/issues
- enable/disable automatic firmware settings at
Menu
»Settings
»Firmware settings
- before you use LoRa, make sure to edit
Hardware.h
, look forRF95_FREQ
and set it to 868MHz for EU:
#define RF95_FREQ 868.0
(See this (somewhat sparse) issue)
- enable UDP by adding
u=UDP_SIP
to an account indata/sip_accounts.ini
(not yet tested)
Get started
- download source code
- run
V="0.8.30"; unzip WiPhone-$V && rm -fr WiPhone && mv WiPhone-$V WiPhone
- open
WiPhone/WiPhone.ino
using Arduino - once: set up IDE (see documentation for details):
- Open preferences (CTRL+,) and add https://wiphone.io/static/releases/arduino_platforms/package_WiPhone_index.json (comma separated) into Additional Boards Manager URLs
- go to Tools » Boards » Board Manager and install
WiPhone
- Arduino option Tools » ESP Sketch Data Upload: download ESP32FS-1.0.zip into the ~Arduino/tools directory with
mkdir -p ~/Arduino/tools && unzip ESP32FS-1.0.zip -d ~/Arduino/tools
- TODO: esptool.py serial:
sudo pip install pyserial
(check your default python version)
- Select Tools » Boards » Wiphone » Wiphone arduino
- compile with (CTRL+r)
custom mods
command line build
The provided repo contains several patches and a semi-automated build/upload process to create your own custom binary (without opening the Arduino IDE) This includes:
- caret cursor color fix
- lockscreen fix (mentioned here as well)
- LoRa 868MHz, menu is WIP
- ackspace.nl fake NAPTR (hardcoded IP)
- loudspeaker fix (mentioned here)

5V injector
To charge the Wiphone (with 5V, including charging indicator), without using USB (since xopr's UART is broken), he soldered 2 cables with female dupont ends to the 5V rail (not VBUS). With troubleshooting, he also noted some useful pads/components, more or less reversed engineered: File:Wiphone testpads components.svg
Here is the result
