@felmue Thanks, my brain had collapsed
I see a few comments on Squareline studio and so looking at it.

It was a brand new display out of the bag. There is a chance I may have killed it wiring +&- back to front but the backlight still works

@teastain Ah Ok thanks, I avoid arduino like the plague so didn't notice.

Hopefully that means that people can read the example and simply port to arduino.

Hello @ajb2k3

nice! And thanks for the tip with the # before the note.

Thanks
Felix

@flypeek No knowing anything about the arduino I just get errors.

Never mind, I found the missing int from bytes blocks and it works.

@robski please reread the post as I have actually mentioned those details.

Thanks for sharing your findings—this is really useful information, especially for anyone working with ESP32-S3 devices.

The distinction between the two drivers (JTAG/Serial and the low-level modem driver) explains a lot of the issues people run into when trying to reflash firmware. It sounds like the main challenge is getting proper access to Bootloader mode when the second driver isn’t installed correctly.

On Windows and Linux, driver installation can sometimes be tricky depending on permissions or conflicting drivers. It might be worth checking if the correct USB CDC/ACM or WinUSB drivers are being assigned, or trying tools like Zadig on Windows to manually bind the device to the right driver.

Also, holding the BOOT button while connecting (or resetting) the device can sometimes force it into Bootloader mode if it’s not entering automatically.

Good call on warning users about Flipper/Marauder firmware—getting locked out of reflashing can be a real headache. Hopefully, with more testing, a consistent driver setup for Windows/Linux can be identified.

Looking forward to any updates you find!

I’ve built a great extensible architecture with M5 and basically any sensor. It was mentioned in my reply

It’s one thing to capture some data, it’s another to do the same in a scalable collective user base. That requires a distributed collection and messaging environment. Sensing and Controlling are two major branches of that challenge.

So I think this community challenge needs to think bigger than a few M5 devices. 😄
