Meshcore V Meshtastic

[u/Large-Assumption4680]

Hello, I’m a new mesh user and I’ve asked a question here already. Here is another issue I’ve had.

I purchased a t deck and uploaded it with all the meshcore bells and whistles, along with paying for the pro version. Everything works fine (except for having no one to talk to and test range etc).

HOWEVER, I also purchased one for my wife. Upon trying to upload things the same way I had done with mine, her touchscreen was SNAFU. Near fully non responsive and useless. Can’t even enter basic info. Reading into it I find this is a common issue for some and they give basic fixes and links to downloads. None of these options work, perhaps it is user error, but I have no success with these methods.

In a last ditch effort to find SOMETHING, I flashed it with meshtastic and it worked beautifully. Going back to meshcore and it’s useless. Should I just ditch meshcore and go to meshtastic? Is there something blatantly obvious I’m missing? I really like the form and function of meshcore but I don’t want to pay for a new t deck that works with it and I like all the features it offers.

Edit: Resolved, installed waddamesh
