Hi everyone,
I just bought a LoRa32u4 from BSFrance but I can’t get it working properly. The activation via OTAA seems to work but the board rarely sends the payload. Only once of 100 times the board really joins ttn.
I added the line “LMIC_setClockError(MAX_CLOCK_ERROR * 1 / 100);” in the setup and changed in hal.cpp:
static const SPISettings settings(8E6, MSBFIRST, SPI_MODE0);
As it connects a very few times, the keys are alright. The messages in the serial monitor are:
Starting
Packet queued
End of setup
1438534: EV_JOINING
after EV_JOINING

The code I’m using is:

* This example sends a valid LoRaWAN packet with payload "Hello,
* world!", using frequency and encryption settings matching those of
* the The Things Network.
*
* This uses OTAA (Over-the-air activation), where where a DevEUI and
* application key is configured, which are used in an over-the-air
* activation procedure where a DevAddr and session keys are
* assigned/generated for use with all further communication.
*
* Note: LoRaWAN per sub-band duty-cycle limitation is enforced (1% in
* g1, 0.1% in g2), but not the TTN fair usage policy (which is probably
* violated by this sketch when left running for longer)!
* To use this sketch, first register your application and device with
* the things network, to set or generate an AppEUI, DevEUI and AppKey.
* Multiple devices can use the same AppEUI, but each device has its own
* DevEUI and AppKey.
*
* Do not forget to define the radio type correctly in config.h.
