hi can u share how to build doggle on zsun?
ok thanks for the respon.I really need to update the first post of this thread.
My new test candidate zsun arrived only yesterday. I am in the process of building packages again. Sadly, I am also preparing for a much needed vacation at this time.
I would actively recommend that people either flash one of the "with battery" variants of the A5V11 hardware, or program and solder together one of those trinket/feather kits in the meantime. The zsun will require hardware modifications that require almost superhuman soldering skills. I have a plan of action on how to proceed, but am way behind the others at this point.
My objective with starting this thread (get at least one DIY dongle working) has been met-- We have working prototypes of several unique designs. I would encouragev those who have developed prototypes to post nice, clean how-to posts of their own, so that people who arent interested in the actual hardware hacking aspects of dongle developent and just want to get to having a dongle of their own can quickly get to it without wading through 15+ pages.
that's a good one. thinking about it i probably could have used the charge grip battery...I did the same but with a joy con battery and thinking about putting the trinket m0 inside my switch
ok thanks for the respon.
i already read but from the cost is chep if i use zsun. if use trinker m0 is expensive.
The A5V11 hardware is like, 7$.
Contains a battery already, comes in an injection molded housing already, and is completely solderless. Just needs a custom firmware flashed onto it, and a pigtail cable.
Have you got it working? I flashed @jcrorxp bin file but now there is no Wifi and when I connected it via ethernet I am unable to ssh/telnet into it...
I followed this guide: https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/unbranded/a5-v11
The English (QualComm) Factory Firmware part and I flashed the firmware and used
u-boot 256.
Thank you for the detailed reply
I found a cheap version here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/PL2...nverter-Serial-Adapter-Cable/32834894166.html
I will try different IPs and see if that gets me anywhere since that cable will take a while to come....
Does it come with a default Payload do you know? Because it doesn't seem to do anything when I load up RCM either...
Yeah I thought it came with the default fusee payload but I am not getting anything so something is definitely wrong...I guess I will just have to wait for the UART cable.
Is the one I posted above decent or would this one suit better?

Edit: Yeah I noticed it didn't have 3.3v this one does seem to have it though...
Thanks for the help
I used the trinket m0 which works a treat, however now I want to try and build another one using the trinket m0 but this time instead off soldering the data+ & data- wires to the micro usb port on the trinkets, I after using a Usb 3 1 Type C Male Connector To Micro Usb Male Adapter.
but all I can find are these two versions.
Usb 3.1 Type C Male To Micro Usb 2.0 Female Adapter
Micro USB Male to Usb 3 1 Type C Female Data Adapter
i could always remove the micro usb female port from the Usb 3.1 Type C Male To Micro Usb 2.0 Female Adapter and replace it with a micro usb port.
but I was hoping someone may have come across the Type C Male Connector To Micro Usb Male Adapter to save me the hassle of soldering.
this is my version 1, could do with a slightly smaller battery but it will do till I find other bits to do a version 2 of it.
So I got this router: http://s.aliexpress.com/mMfaQFZB
I flashed the firmware on it but when I connect it to the battery and then the Switch in rcm, nothing happens.
How can I do that?Do you have ssh to the unit? I am interested in the output of dmesg after plugging in the NX.
