PicoBoot v0.4

Warning

Some people are experiencing issues with v0.4 firmware, in such cases it's recommended to use v0.3 instead. The issue is being investigated.

This release introduced a few important improvements to the modchip code:

• Pins GP6 and 7 no longer need to be connected together. New installations should use GP6 only. You are not required to update your existing wiring as the firmware is backwards compatible.
• Split modchip code from injectable payload. This enforces better interoperability with payload providers (gekkoboot, cubeboot).
• Firmware file is now 80% smaller
