[SOLVED] Flashing with other tools than Arduino IDE results display fail #16

Closed ghost closed 2 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

When flashing with the following tools, bad things happen (display black or garbage)

EasyLoader_M5StickC_FactoryTest.exe
M5Burner (any rom flashed from StickCPlus)

When using Arduino IDE, I can flash any Example without problems. Tried with different baud rates for upload, different partitions with Arduino IDE, always the same, Arduino IDE works, the other tools failing.

Pease advice. I want to flash at least the latest UIFlow rom.

Hello @drax2gma

M5StickC and M5StickC Plus are two different devices. The Plus version has a bigger display. Please try the EasyLoader Plus version, e.g.

Thanks Felix

Hello @felmue

You were absolutely right, I've used the wrong firmware :( Interestingly that was the one what seemed to work. But the real problem was the 3rd party "long" cable. While I used the factory provided short one, everything went fine. Thanks for your help!
