OrcSDR nightly build

Nightly build from main. Includes changes headed for the next release. They've passed testing but haven't had a full release check, so expect the occasional bug. For the tested release, use the regular installer.

Your saved settings are kept unless you choose to erase. Like the regular installer, this writes only the bootloader, partition table and OrcSDR app and leaves the settings (NVS) area alone. When it asks Erase device, leave the box unticked to keep Wi-Fi, location and rotation.

Reporting a bug

On the Tab5, open Settings → System: the BUILD line shows nightly 8b0a713 2026-10-06 for this build. Put that line in your bug report so the exact commit is known.

Going back to the release

Install the release from the regular installer at any time. If settings act strange afterwards, install again and tick Erase device (you'll re-enter Wi-Fi).

How nightly works

  • Built automatically from main of hardcoreerik/OrcSDR each night (about 3:23 am Pacific), only when main changed and the automated tests pass.
  • Erik only merges to main what he's happy with and plans to ship. It just hasn't had the full release check yet.
  • When main is the same as the latest release, there's no separate nightly. Use the release.
  • Same Web Serial installer as the release: desktop Chrome or Edge, USB-C data cable. See the regular installer for step-by-step and troubleshooting.
