Could you please try to burn the factory_test from the m5stack burner and see if the screen can react?

@zontex
That's working fine! Tried this several times with succes!
When compiling the examples I use the board "M5Stack-Fire".

When I try to run the example "M5EPD_TTF" then it is not workin, blank screen. Have you tried this example found in the example directory?
The SHT30 example is working fine.

All thing related to the canvas like fonts, drawing etc gives the problem.

Do you have could run all example files?

Powersoft

@zontex
Have running all demo programs
Here the results:

Button: failed
DISPLAY_URL_JPG: failed
HELLOWORLD: pass
M5EPD_TTF: failed
RTC_BM8563: pass
SHT30: pass
TOUCH: failed

This is very strange!

@powersoft Will try to re-produce and will let you know the results ASAP.

@zontex

Is there progress on this topic?

Found the solution. After setting into the preference the right url and loading the m5stack I was able to choose the M5Paper. Examples are running now👍

I met the same problems with my new M5Paper.
Please, can you be a bit more specific with "After setting into the preference the right url..."

I my boards I see different M5-products but not the M5Paper. Will this change by your solution?

@jop after change the board manager URL, did you reinstall the board? (update to the latest version.)

check this tutorial:

@m5stack thnx, I solved this problem - indeed I had to load board definitions
