bug: detecting t-lora v2.1 1.6.1 as tbeam and nano-g1

[dcherrera]

when running the software in a background bash it detects my t-lora as a t-beam when auto detecting. when opening the software manually in terminal to get an output it detects as a nano-g1. I have tried 2 different cables and will try a couple more in the morning. no difference between cables when auto detecting with that bash script in the background.

I have a similar issue. My t-beam gets detected as tlora-v1 same detect out put.

Do your devices already have a version of meshtastic installed @dcherrera & @JebBaker?

The detection does not work great if you don't have meshtastic as they all identify themselves essentially as the same dev board.

[JebBaker]

That did it. As soon as I flashed it, which I assumed the board was flashed already, then the flasher allowed me to go into the device settings. Thanks.
