Screen blinking white and black once every 2 seconds, but not booting #5

Closed dtshepherd closed 3 weeks ago

I have a LilyGo S3 and I'm able to build and flash to the device:

Here's the TFT_eSPI version I'm running (latest):

I have commented out User_Select.h and uncommented User_Setups/Setup206_LilyGo_T_Display_S3.h and rebuilt. Then re-programmed, but still doesn't help.

I am loading this from MacOS, but I had no issue with the board being recognized after I loaded the proper driver (and gave it permission). Any ideas before I go deeper into debugging?

The flashing screen means your S3 is crashing and rebooting itself. You should see something in the serial monitor showing a crash dump and a reboot.

For the board, select the "ESP32S3 Dev Module" instead of the "LilyGo T-Display-S3" and then try reuploading it. You may have to first put your S3 into a forced upload mode by removing power to the S3, holding down the top button (assuming the S3 is in the orientation of the buttons being to the left of the screen) and then plug the S3 into your computer. That will let you then reupload the code using the "ESP32S3 Dev Module" board.

I tried flashing both "ESP32S3 Dev Module" and "LilyGo T-Display-S3" (though the diff looks the same for those configs when I look at the "boards.txt" from Espressif. This is the serial output error for both board configurations:

I'm running the latest the latest for esp32, which is v2.0.16, so I decided to downgrade to v2.0.7 from your MacOS YouTube video and that fixed things. I'll try to slice which version broke things.

ruthsarian commented 3 weeks ago

Probably broke on ESP 2.0.15. A similar issue was reported with a 2.0.15 install previously. I guess I need to sit down and figure out what's causing this crash with ESP 2.0.15 and above.

dtshepherd commented 3 weeks ago

Oh shoot, how did I miss that issue... Sorry. If I get some time this tonight/this week, I'll try to debug. I was trying to get the Droid Toolbox setup for my 6yo for the Disney trip next week :)

ruthsarian commented 3 weeks ago

No worries. Have a great trip!

Thanks @Elcid8687, that's what I did to get it working.

Debugging this a bit tonight and these lines trigger the heap corruption: https://github.com/ruthsarian/Droid-Toolbox/blob/main/Droid-Toolbox.ino#L3130-L3132. Maybe something isn't allocated correctly for the new version for advertising? Digging further...

ruthsarian commented 3 weeks ago

Excellent work! Thank you for fixing this issue!

Elcid8687 commented 3 weeks ago

I have successfully tested with latest board version TDisplay and T3DisplaySent from my iPhoneOn May 8, 2024, at 12:15 AM, The Forgettable Mister Ruthsarian @.***> wrote: Closed #5 as completed.
