Tronbyt - replacement firmware and backend

I have not figured this out. How do I complete a Full Erase?

43

Just displaying a few random lights usually means the flash did not succeed.
this command should do a full erase.
pio run --target erase --environment tidbyt-gen2

I eventually got it to work by doing a RESET with an updated copy of Tronbyt.

I’m wondering if anyone has a simple, “I’m not nor ever have been a coder” how-to on installing Tronbyt. I don’t even have a clue where you install it. On the Tidbyt? On my Mac? In a cloud? If anyone knows of a “Tronbyt for Dummies” explainer out there, please post.

Thanks!

I’m back to trying to move my tidbyts to tronbyt again.

When I flash my device I’m seeing that the brightness level is always very, very bright-– it doesn’t seem to be using the DEFAULT_BRIGHTNESS value from the secrets.json file.

I figured it out. All of my 6 Tidbyts are now Tronbyts! No more talking to the Tidbyt server!

Thanks so much for your work on this. Gives me hope that I can put my two units to good work.
