I first noticed this in the latest build of 2.0.4. On the splash screen there's a line of corrupted pixels here:
PXL_20241206_131447909

They're not dead pixels on the display, once it's past the splash screen it goes away. Always appears in the same place.

On 2.0.3 the splash screen disappears too quickly to see if it's there, but I did notice a similar bit of corruption on the main screen:
PXL_20241206_131608655

This also goes away after a second. I guess something with the video memory isn't initializing quite right.

Unit is a FNIRSI GC-01 with the Geehy processor and an M4011 tube. If it helps any, the code on the display ribbon cable is ENH-TV240B026.

Is this an issue?

Thus the minor in the title. I know it's probably low priority but figured I should report it anyway. Might be a trivial fix.

Thanks for the report!

¿Can somebody confirm this did not occur in 2.0.2?

It's not on the splash screen like 2.0.4, but does appear on the measurement screen for a second like 2.0.3.

In 2.0.4, does the spot always appear at the same spot, or does it move every time you turn on the device? Does the spot's pattern stay the same or does it change (another photo might help)? Is there any spot afterwards?

I insist: could you check if there is any spot in 2.0.2? This would help a lot in diagnosing the problem.

This is in 2.0.2, that's what I meant by this.

The glitch has the same appearance and the same position every time.

Can somebody check if this also manifests on the Bosean FS-5000? Trying the landscape release would help a lot.

This is on 2.0.2. Dotted line always appear on startup. Double dots above decimal separator always appear on first measurement update. The small dots after number 4 appear rarely and randomly.

I can confirm that I am also having the same issue, I also am sure that I have official gc-01 device, came with j321 and it has flashed to newer official firmware successfully in the past. I'm on 2.0.3, everything else seems to function correctly otherwise

Processor brand / model: Geehy APM32F103RBT6 NT4CP 5090 D1 - 2234
Geiger tube: J321
Display model: ENH-TV0240
1B026 V0.3
Internal port layout: #VCC – GND – DIO – CLOCK (VCC: square)

Just Ignore the resistor as i havent had a chance to remove it, i was grabbing power from the led to the buzzer to allow buzzer during detections before updating to this firmware

Can somebody try this: https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/actions/runs/12775724387 (click below on radpro-firmware-snapshot) and see if it fixes this issue?

White screen. It is detecting counts but is otherwise unresponsive.

Same issue here as well with the snapshot, nothing but blank display with backlight but can hear clicks and see led activity

Thanks for the reports.

There was a very silly bug. Could you please try again? https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/actions/runs/12780156091

This one works and the artifact is gone from the splash screen but this one is still present.

Probably unrelated but in this new build I am also getting a weird font artifact. It's present when there's "14" anywhere in the reading but nowhere else as far as I can tell.

Those images were very useful! I was able to reproduce and fix the glitch involving the 1 and 4 characters.

Can you try once again? https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/actions/runs/12816891832

This one seems to function properly for the 1 and 4 case, but i am seeing the dots on the initial screen again, as in this post: #163 (comment)

The Pulses menu is messed up. Haptic leads to Pulse LED, Pulse LED leads to Display flashes, and Display flashes leads to Haptic.

Fix'd, but a new minor problem. When turning it off, if the power button is held down for slightly too long, it'll register it as an on press and turn on again. Which is slightly annoying.

Excellent bug report. Thanks for your help.

Did you try the new features? Alarm dismissal, more rate/dose alarm options, configurable alarm signaling, keyboard lock mode?

Do the graphical glitches still appear?

Excellent bug report. Thanks for your help.

Thanks, I'm told I have a knack for finding bugs. Speaking of, another more serious one. It seems the cumulative dose is not saved upon power cycling anymore. Every time it starts with zero counts.

The new features all work, however I'd like to suggest a change with alarm signaling. The way it is now the Acoustic setting applies all three levels of alarm, Haptic applies itself and Visual, and Visual just applies itself. You can only choose one of the three as if they were radio buttons. Instead I feel it would make more sense to be able to select any combination of these such that one could apply them individually. Furthermore I'd like an LED alarm option because I'd prefer not to have the alarm flashing obscure blinks from the pulse counts.

The glitch is still there. I had no idea this would be such a bugbear to hunt down!

There was an error with the watchdog timer (which resets the microcontroller in case of malfunction). Could you try again with 2.1beta5? https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/actions/runs/13228168353/artifacts/2561063487
