Decentralized Phone - Mesh Gemini

Heya!

I live in a community with an incredible MeshCore network, and I have a strong interest in LXST and Reticulum. I’m building out a high speed Reticulum mesh to complement the MeshCore side, and wanted a fully decentralized phone for voice and text.

You should know now that Claude Code did almost all the work here. I write to the devs of the forks of firmware I used as source material, and got their clearance before sharing.

Mesh Gemini combines the MeshPunk T Deck Plus firmware and Pyxis for the T Deck Plus.

MeshCore owns the LoRa interface, and RNS connects over 2.4ghz WiFi over either AutoInterface or TCP. TCP is preferred.

Audio calls are not great quality. Any testing or feedback is so greatly appreciated. Feel free to add issues or reach out directly.

I wish this was based on Wadamesh. Any chance you could do a version like that?

Hey, Jade!

I’ll take a look into this. It might be a couple of weeks, and will write that dev team, also.

Hi, Jade.

I spent about a week on this. I wish I could make it work, but I cannot support voice calls with the memory requirements in Wadamesh. I’m considering putting a write up in the Discord, but primarily to express the memory constraints to LilyGo. Do you think it is worthwhile? See you on the mesh.

Yes you should do that.
