Failed to connect to ESP32-S3: No serial data received #75

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

I got a couple new LilyGo T-Display-S3 and can not get them to load with the Arduino IDE 2.0.3. I have updated the board manager and as much as the https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO / T-Display-S3

I have tried everything on the website and getting a fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32-S3: No serial data received For troubleshooting steps visit: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esptool/en/latest/troubleshooting.html Failed uploading: uploading error: exit status 2 I'm not sure what else to try. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!!

I get that sometimes. Press left hand button, while holding down, press reset button. Then release left hand button. Then send your code. Also, make sure you have a good cable.

I made a start up guide for this exact board: https://github.com/teastainGit/LilyGO-T-display-S3-setup-and-examples Maybe read through it and try again. This board is VERY fussy and unforgiving of procedure Cheers, Terry.

Well I read through your text file. I had done a update on the standard "TFT_eSPI" Arduino library. Do I just go back in uninstall and go back to what version? Thanks!

If you still have the zip file from LilyGO s GitHub just unzip it and copy the TFT_eSPI from the Lib directly and overwrite whatever file you have in your Arduino Library. This happened to me. I joking tell users to resist the temptation to do the Arduino Library Update! LilyGO’s version is special because it is 8bit parallel not SPI.

Cheers ! Terry

Didn't you say it was a programming issue, which is code independent. I also load just a "new" setup/loop only program and run that...with the reset combination above your display won't show anything, but at least it gets your chip back. All the loading and reloading won't help. The Arduino programmer is telling you what the issue is

I'm still having issues. I'm going to stop for the night, Thanks!

The board is not fussy, it is using a S3 which needs a 100% correct setup. Blame espressif for the unneeded trouble with OPI flash/psram.

Provided a few PRs to Arduino and Platformio repo to correct some bugs and get finally every combination of flash/psram combinations available for the S3 going. It is a mess...
