How do I acquire one of these x-plates? I am just about finished with my build and my recycled amazon plates leave something to be desired.

I have 2 robo’s now and a 3rd soon with new emtb.
My xenogotchi where do I get the bt key from. There is no screen. Maybe it came with a bit of paper sure as fuck can’t find it in my workshop. I also plugged in a display I2C it didn’t display anything. Sound is working but can’t connect. Manual is only for OG gotchi.

2x of em included in the baggie the Xenigotchi arrived in.

OLED will work if you plug it in but CLK and DATA are swapped between the OLED Pinout and qwiic connector.

Why the Robogotchi I made by myself cannot be connected in app?

Well, there could be a number of reasons. There’s no restriction in the FreeSK8 Mobile app- it will connect to a Robogotchi or any compatible device regardless of who manufactures it.

Are you seeing the Robogotchi broadcast is BLE beacon? Have you obtained the PIN code generated when flashing the Robogotchi?

Maybe I failed to flash the Robogotchi or there is a problem with my flash?And the oled can’t light up.

Before flashing,I can search the BLE in app but I can’t connect it.After flashing,I can’t search the BLE in app.Can I find the flash program in FreeSk8 github.

The Robogotchi firmware repository contains a Makefile that uses openocd to flash the firmware. There are multiple openocd config files provided to allow jlink or stlink programming. Execute make, make upload_sd and make upload should be all that is needed.

Once flashed JLinkExe in in conjunction with JLinkRTTClient can be used for debugging.
