4.2 compatible with Pi Zero W 1.1?

I've tried upgrading my hotspot with three different SD cards, and none of them will boot. Hardware is Pi Zero W v1.1 with an STM32-DVM / MMDVM_HS - Raspberry Pi Hat (GPIO). DMR works flawlessly on 4.1.7

Any ideas?

Hotspot with built-in SIM - does one exist?

My hotspot won't connect to any wireless network any more (it is working via wired ethernet), but even when it did work I could never get it to connect to my iPhone wirelessly. Is there an all-in-one solution where the hotspot itself contains a SIM card? Surely this would be a money-spinner for some...

Re: Hotspot won't connect to wifi, screen stuck showing Startup

I bought an ethernet adapter, and now I can use my DMR radio. WiFi still doesn't connect, but at least I have a working system.

It took a while, but I just did this and now the hotspot won't even boot.

Hotspot won't connect to wifi, screen stuck showing Startup

Odd problem here. Hotspot stopped responding, so I power cycled it and now the screen shows MMDVM and Startup. I connected to the built-in AP and the Configuration page shows that WLAN0 is disconnected. Nothing has changed with my Wifi router (everything else connects fine) and clearly the Wifi chip...

Re: Should the Trx box be blank?

We were troubleshooting via phone, so he was calling but I wasn’t receiving and vice versa.

Re: Should the Trx box be blank?

Must be. I’ll look again at the radio programming. Thanks for all the help.

Re: Should the Trx box be blank?

This is bizarre. Just after my last post I disabled YSF and everything started working - sort of. The hotspot remains in listen mode, I can Tx and Rx from the Parrot without problem. I tried a talk group and seems as though I can be heard, but I can't hear any replies. When my buddy in the UK is up ...
