DIY: Marauder with Screen and GPS For Flipper Zero

Many of you would have seen the humongous ESP32 add-on module with touch screen and GPS for Flipper Zero shared in discussion groups, forums, etc. Well, this tutorial will provide you with all the information you need to build one yourself.

This build consists of mainly 4 parts. The TFT LCD 2.8" 240x320 SPI ILI9341 Touch Display cost me around US$5.50, the ESP32-WROOM-32U module cost around US$3, the NEO-6M GPS module cost around US$2.20 and an 8dbi 2.4GHz Wifi Antenna which cost around US$2. All of these parts can be easily found in online marketplaces like Aliexpress, Amazon, etc. Here is how you need to wire them up together. How you wish to lay this out or mount on a prototyping board is entirely up to you. As long as the connections are correct, you are good to go. The GPS module is optional, and mainly, it's used for the war driving functionality.

Next, you need to download all the firmware needed from here. Please download the Bootloader, Partitions, Boot App and Firmware files for v4 (Yes, v4 files, not any others) and save it on your computer.

Now, press and hold the BOOT button on your ESP32-WROOM-32U module and connect it to your computer using a data-capable USB cable (some USB cables can only charge), then let go the BOOT button. Open Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browser and go to ESPWebTool. Click the CONNECT button, then select the ESP32 usb serial connection. It should look something like below but can vary a little between different computers and operating systems.

Select the firmware files for each slot exactly like below (take note of the 0x1000, 0x8000, etc. and their corresponding .bin files), then hit the PROGRAM button.

When completed successfully, you can unplug the USB cable from the ESP32 module and now you can connect your Marauder module to your Flipper Zero. Please ensure that your Flipper Zero is turned off before you connect it, and also turn off your Flipper Zero before disconnecting it. The 3.3V pin is also used by your Flipper Zero's SD card reader and connecting/disconnecting external modules that use this pin while the Flipper Zero is on can potentially corrupt the SD card. So, if everything went according to plan, your Marauder module should boot up and everything should look like below.

NOTE: If your Marauder boots up, but when you try to touch the screen and get no response, try tapping around the bottom part of your screen and see if the touch panel seems to be in inverted position from the actual display. Should this happen to you, just flash your ESP32 module again following the steps above, but use the v6 firmware. This should resolve the issue.

In this build, I just prototyped this on breadboard, but you can of course make it permanent by soldering it on to a prototype board and 3D print a case for it. This setup is essentially just using the Flipper Zero as a battery pack, instead of using the Flipper Zero to control Marauder. The large screen does make some things easier to do, compared to the small screen of the Flipper Zero, and there may be some functionality (not much) that is not currently in the Flipper Zero Marauder companion app. Here is a video showing the different menus in Marauder.

Personally, I don't think I will actually want to bring something so big around with me, along with my Flipper Zero. I think what makes Flipper Zero special is just how compact it is and all the different functionality cramped into it. This would probably be better off as a standalone unit by just hooking up a battery, but that's just me. Well, that's it for this tutorial. I hope you found this helpful.

Here's a good intro to Marauder if you are unfamiliar.

Trying Out Flipper Zero’s Mifare Fuzzer

Wanted to play around with the RFID/Mifare Fuzzer apps, but obviously not wanting to do anything illegal, so I used Arduino and parts I have lying around to make a security system simulator, mostly by following this guide.

The fuzzer app is brute forcing to try and gain access. While it can work, it does take a long time if you need to test a lot combinations.

What other test rigs have you built to try out Flipper’s capabilities?

Flipper Hackers Collective Group Suspended

Hey guys, some bad news.

Our group has been suspended by Facebook for trademark infringement, though I would argue "Flipper" is generic. Anyway, I have converted our other group "Flipper Hackers Exchange" to "Makers & Hackers Exchange", so please use that as our backup for now, while I try to appeal the suspension. Thanks!

Switching Firmwares Easily On Flipper Zero

You can actually switch between different firmware from within Flipper Zero itself. Just download all the firmwares you want, unzip/untar them, then copy the entire firmware folders to your Flipper Zero Micro SD Card's "update" folder. Now, you can just open the file browser on your Flipper Zero, browse to the folder of the firmware you wish to install, click the update file, and select "Run", then "Install". That's it! 😊 The video below shows me switching from stock firmware > Unleashed > Xtreme > RogueMaster. I have sped up sections of the video of the install process to shorten the video. I would recommend making a backup of your Micro SD card before doing this in just case anything goes wrong.
