PS: One more question; will both devices run the same firmware? If not, will new and old device's firmwares be developed and maintained in parallel?
GitHub has no repository for the new firmware, which makes me hope they run the same one; thus reducing codebase to maintain + elongating FE update support.
Hi, Ken from Foundation Devices here.GitHub has no repository for the new firmware, which makes me hope they run the same one; thus reducing codebase to maintain + elongating FE update support.
I wanted to make sure that FE had a long life, so I put in quite a bit of effort to make sure that it would be able to run the newer codebase.
There will be two separate firmware downloads, but they will be built from the same codebase.
There are improvements in the new hardware that we'll be announcing soon, but, to the extent possible, we're trying to make the firmware on the two devices have similar features.
Note that there might be an initial delay of a few weeks in releasing the first FE version of this new code, but after that my intention is that new firmware versions for the two devices get released simultaneously.
Cheers!
