From research I can see that I can't connect these to my raspberry pi directly...
Can someone please help as I wish to order the staff and get the project started!

Gas sensor parts complications help: Demo board/ evaluation board and test board (for Arduino)
There are these 2 parts that are used in conjunction with the readings incoming from an acoustic, transducer gas sensing element: a demo board/ evaluation board along with a test board designated for Arduino connection. I am having difficulties with understanding what each part does and what’s the purpose that they serve. Help!

New WiFi connection
I have a problem with WiFi connection. I am using my RPi 4 to controll my 2 3d printers. I did have everything set up. Now I came back to my home country, brought my printer and RPi4 and I am unable to set up WiFi connection, so I would be able to connect 3d printer and continue doing my projects. I have already tried wpa_supplicant and with ethernet cable but neither of those methods worked. Does anyone have some advice?

Pi3b dead?
Hi all thanks in advance for looking at this post and any help you can provide!
I have an RPI3b that I've been using as a pihole- booting off an usb drive. I noticed yesterday the pihole was down so I powered off the pi and examined the flash drive it reported that it was in read only mode (there is no hardware switch on this drive) so given past experiences I've come to the conclusion since its not a software lock the flash must be erroring and the drive's controller decided the lock out any writes to preserve the data on the drive.
So I thought if I got another new usb drive and flashed it with the official rasberry pi imager I could start again. unfortunately after imaging the new drive the pi will not boot into raspbian it will just sit at blinking cursor on a black screen. I already checked the 3v3 power pin on the gpio and its still reads ~3.3v.
I'm a bit mystified as how to proceed any help would be appreciated!

Need help with PIO for SPI ROM chip reads
Background -- I recently discovered https://github.com/stacksmashing/pico-serprog and since I have a ton of picos and no rom programmers I thought I'd give it ago, except flashrom doesn't detect it as a programmer. Then I discovered the fork https://codeberg.org/libreboot/pico-serprog except that it doesn't implement all commands. So today I forked it: https://github.com/opensensor/pico-serprog and implemented remaining commands.
I think started refactoring the primary rom read command S_CMD_O_SPIOP -- seems to be the problem is related to flashrom reading the entire 16 MB rom I can read from the chip as long as I read a subset that can fit into pico memory and send it one go -- as soon as I chunk the payload the communications with flashrom break.
I've started trying to implement pio spi in a branch, but I am kind of confused. It compiles, but no data is received for the large chunks, meaning the new pio code I added isn't quite right: https://github.com/opensensor/pico-serprog/pull/1/files

Raspberry Pi 3 Camera module not working anymore on bullseye (used to work on buster)
Hello,
Is someone aware of an issue targeting this model of camera ? An article seems to indicate a compatibility issue but it sounds strange https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi-bullseye-camera-commands/
How can I diagnose this compability issue ?
I have:

DHT11 on Rust: Timeout Error
I've been trying to use a DHT11 temperature sensor with rppal. My code is the following:
rust
fn main() {
let mut pin = Gpio::new().unwrap().get(18).unwrap().into_io(Mode::Output);
let mut led = Gpio::new().unwrap().get(17).unwrap().into_output();
let mut sensor = Dht11::new(pin);
for _ in 0..10 {
led.set_high();
let measurement = sensor.perform_measurement(&mut Delay::new());
println!("{:?}", measurement);
led.set_low();
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1));
}
}
but measurement keeps being set to Err(Timeout). I have tried using different IO modes and using different libraries too. This crate is dht11, but I have also tried dht-sensor and simple-dht11, to no avail. I also haven't managed to get a measurement with a different language, Python kept crashing in the venv because it couldn't detect the environment.
I connected the VCC to the 3.3V supply, the ground to GND and the data line to GPIO 18. I'm pretty confident it's correctly connected cause I have an LED on my DHT11 that lights up, but I cannot make any measurements whatsoever.

not booting; flashing error code
i bought a "raspberry pi model b+ v1.2" from ebay, and on attempting to boot it seems to be flashing an error code that i haven't been able to identify by googling. i've attached a video; it looks like three short flashes, one long flash, two short dim flashes, and one long flash. even if that's just a three-short-one-long that's consistently repeating poorly for some reason, that combination didn't seem to be listed. does anyone know what this means?

Is it possible to make Raspberry Pi 5 portable?
So, I have a Raspberry 5 8gb RAM I am getting in 2 days for Christmas. I was wondering something.(This is a question for people who already own the product by the way.) Is there some way so far that we can make the Raspberry Pi 5 portable? Has anyone done it so far? Is anyone planning on doing it? If so what would I need to buy, gather, or pre-order? Is it even possible? If it’s possible what would be the minimum mAh I would need in a Lithium Ion Battery)

Pi 3 B+ : 100Mbps instead of 1Gbps
Hi,
I'm new to Raspberry and just got a second hand 3B+.
I checked Raspberry Pi website, and 3B+ should come with a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (although it's locked to 300Mbps because is going through USB).
On my Pi3B+, the adapter is shown as a Fast Ethernet Adapter, thus allowing only 100Mbps.
I tried this on Debian12, Raspbian Bullseye, Ubuntu 23.10, and have the same thing.
Also, on the switch, it shows 1Gbps connectivity ...
Any idea ?
Regards,

Pi 5 with sound
Hi, so I'm planning to build a cyberdeck with a Pi 5, and I'm planning to use laptop speakers from a broken laptop I have, and realised I would need an audio amp. I was wondering which of these would be a better pick:
The one with a blue heatsink is a TPA3110 with 8-26V DC, 30W+30W 2.0 amp XH-A232. The red PCB one is a DollaTek 10W+10W 2 Channel 12V DC module. Since the Pi 5 doesn't have an audio jack anymore, I would need to use a USB adaptor to get the audio cable or use GPIO pins. I don't plan to have access to the rotating volume control so I feel like the space on it is gonna be wasted.
I'm planning to power the build off a power bank. I know 30W is going to be better for sound but I'm also conscious of power spend. Not to mention that looking at power banks they seem to be capped below 30W so I'm not sure if getting 30W capability would be even worth it.
Here's two power banks I've been looking at:
Lower wattage, less outputs, less capability but name brand - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anker-Portable-PowerCore-High-Speed-Charging/dp/B0BYP4Y1N8/
More wattage more capacity more outputs but haven't heard of the brand before - https://www.amazon.co.uk/VEGER-30000mAh-Charging-Portable-Compatible/dp/B0C4DWD4XY/
To be specific the laptop speakers I'm utilising are QT-7326AW-1-W and these are the links to the boards:
Dollatek - https://www.amazon.co.uk/DollaTek-Electronic-Assembled-Amplifier-Portable/dp/B07DJ4NJXR/
TPA3110 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Amplifier-TPA3110-XH%E2%80%91A232-Computers-Electronic/dp/B093ZK99B8

RPI 3 B+ Not working. Only red light.
I powered my RPI 3 B+ with a Fast Wall Charger, Model: Q5003-US, Input: AC 100-240V.50/50Hz.0.5A Max, Output: DC 3.6-6V=3A, 6-9V=2A, 9-12V=1.5A
I did some research and the RPI only needs 5V,2.5A... So, I think I fried it. But if that was the case, then why is the red light still working?
I re-flashed the micro-sd, nothing. I used another micro-sd, nothing. I went back the the 5V,2A head and nothing works.

Terminate code mid way through with a button press
Hi all, I have the following code (hopefully this is formatted correctly in discord)
import time
import board
import digitalio
import usb_hid
import sys
from adafruit_hid.keyboard import Keyboard
from adafruit_hid.keycode import Keycode
btn1_pin = (board.GP16)
btn2_pin = (board.GP15)
# Set up the button
btn1 = digitalio.DigitalInOut(btn1_pin)
btn1.direction = digitalio.Direction.INPUT
btn1.pull = digitalio.Pull.DOWN
btn2 = digitalio.DigitalInOut(btn2_pin)
btn2.direction = digitalio.Direction.INPUT
btn2.pull = digitalio.Pull.DOWN
keyboard = Keyboard(usb_hid.devices)
while True:
if btn1.value:
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
keyboard.send(Keycode.A)
time.sleep(01)
if btn2.value:
keyboard.releaseall()
(Eventually the A keycodes will be swapped for scroll down arrow commands to I can scroll up and down a page) What I'm finding impossible to do is to stop the code mid way though with the press of btn2. is there a way to do this?
thanks.

15-30 second delayed "Live" Video playback
Hey all, just wondering if this would be possible. I have never used a raspberry pi properly before and have 0 knowledge on them or their capabilities just for a bit of information.
I need a way to take a live video feed from a camera or webcam, and play it back with a 15-30 second delay on an external monitor, this would need to be able to run with no internet connection and be robust enough to run for 6 hours per day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I'm UK based if that is of any help or hinderance. Thank you all in advance
