v3.5.2-beta - Final release

After taking a quick break from the project and overall coding in general, I decided to clean up the project and introduce a new feature: BLE Spam.

Overview

With this release, one of the biggest issues has been tackled: Program space. I've seen what people have said regarding program space. I've introduced a new configuration option (not in config.cpp, but in config.h) that enables or disables the usage of libraries. That way, if you aren't using any screen libraries, you won't need to install any of them. This will also save a bunch of program memory with it.

Along with that, I was able to patch an M5Stack device-related issue regarding the M5StickC Plus and M5StickC Plus 2. In doing so, the device can now detach from its USB cable and rely on the battery for power.

I've also implemented BLE Spam (specifically for IOS), a new feature I've been anticipating adding but never really had the time to do. It can spam on newer devices running the latest IOS updates but it doesn't crash it unless your IOS version is affected by BLE Spam/unpatched.

With that said I'd like to officially thank everyone for the support for this project. I know it's a bit old by now, but I'd like to step down from the development of this project and move on to additional interesting and thought-provoking projects.

Until next time.

v3.4.2-beta - Online Configuration

Starting with this release the Minigotchi will wait for you to input your whitelisted networks in a (minimal) WebUI. Your configuration will be put in the Minigotchi memory. This is still a WIP and not everything can be put in it.

Overview

With this release, one of the biggest ground-breaking changes I have made was the WebUI. With this, you can modify the configuration which is persistent across boots. It even seems to stay after you reflash. This allows you to modify your device after it is flashed with something like the M5launcher. I will start adding .bin files to that repository soon!

Another cool feature I added was Minigotchi and Palnagotchi detection. Instead of just looking for Pwnagotchis, it will also look for Minigotchi and Palnagotchi-specific information in their advertisements. In your configuration you can also modify the faces your Minigotchi will use, which is cool because this allows for more control over what you want your Minigotchi to look like.

Because of such modifications, I have made changes to the install guide. Be sure to check that out before installing the Minigotchi firmware.

I would also like to thank @bmorcelli for their recent contributions to this project. His addition of the 3.0.x patch for the arduino-ESP32 board library allows Minigotchi to run on more ESP32s.

Speaking of the community, I have also made a discord server, make sure to join! I'll post more updates there and it will allow me to get into contact better with the community.

See you around.

v3.3.2-beta

Fixing pretty much everything for the ESP32.

Overview

For starters, the ESP32 works pretty well. It can advertise, deauth, etc just fine. I'd argue that I prefer using the ESP32 over the ESP8266, it has much more processing power, usability, and better support for what we're doing.

Features include but aren't limited to

• Screen support for SSD1306, WEMOS_OLED_SHIELD, CYD, T_DISPLAY_S3(including stuff like off brand displays), M5STICKCP, M5STICKCP2, M5CARDPUTER, SSD1305, IDEASPARK_SSD1306, and SH1106
• Fully working advertisement, Pwnagotchi scanning, and deauthing.
• A multitude of fixes for numerous bugs in the previous release
• Many new boards (ESP32-based) are supported

I'd also like to thank @matrix224, @ATOMNFT, @J-Terrell, @DSCustoms, and @0x5k for their contributions to this repository, their support has made the process of development a lot easier for me. I am grateful to have many contributors and testers by my side through this whole process.

This project has been one roller coaster of a ride, and I'm very happy with the results of it. Development will continue, but since everything is stable I will do mostly patches.

See you on the other side, @dj1ch

v3.2.2-beta - Port to ESP32

Overview

After a couple of weeks, we now have support for the ESP32! Essentially it does the same thing as a normal Minigotchi, except just using native ESP32 WiFi libraries for packet injection.

I expect this to be supported on most ESP32 development boards, I haven't tested on any of them but they have compiled successfully on the Arduino IDE, and it works on the Flipper Zero WiFi developer board.

There is a potential for bugs as I have not fully tested this, I am relying off of other people to test for me. If there are any, please let me know ASAP!

Note: I have noticed that people have found a channel-switching issue and I will get started on fixing that.
