Revert back to 1.1.1, and then be F*****d dead in the water for the separate and distinct reason that the cellular is broken and won't reconnect prior to 1.3.0
I don't have the energy to describe how much wasted time, effort, and frustration has resulted on my end because Particle has destroyed the Boron's ability to be used in any real environment i.e. solar charging a LiPo battery.
Yesterday I had to drive 6 hours because the following code caused a REPEATED CRASH on Boron setup (i.e., had to physically put in safe mode in order to flash new code without the following):
detachInterrupt(LOW_BAT_UC);
delay(3500);
PMIC pmic;
pmic.begin();
pmic.disableBuck();
pmic.disableCharging();
This whole thing is an absolute disaster and any reasonable person in my shoes has NO IDEA how to make the Boron work in an actual deployment environment. The recent history of power issues, firmware updates destroying the charging, and the inexplicable crash/failure upon calling PMIC calls is simply too complex and difficult to adequately summarize.
I am now at a loss and wondering of all the Borons I bought are a complete waste of resources, whether I should switch to a completely different platform where I can manage to charge a LiPo battery and not have an endless comedy of errors of repeatable failures and crashes.
