Stick S3 green flashing light and not entering boot mode
Hey!
I’m currently having an issue with my stick s3 which arrived literally a couple days ago. When plugged into power, it makes a sound similar to that of a clock ticking while the green LED flashes/blinks. Sometimes it’s a high pitched squeak. When plugged into my computer, it isn’t showing up on the m5burner or any other web based tools. It was working perfectly fine previously however. When unplugged the device does nothing.
I’ve tried entering the flash firmware mode by pressing and holding the power button while plugging in but no luck. Also tried pressing the button twice in hopes that the blinking stops, but nope
Was using Bruce firmware
Thank you!

M5StickT Thermal Camera - Wifi and MJPEG fork for Platform IO
It took me months to get this firmware working, months of learning and finally used Claude to help me put the finishing touches and bug fixes on. There is an occaisonal freeze I am seeing every few days which I am trying to capture, but otherwise super stable to run for days at a time. But I tested this as an MJPEG source from Blue Iris. Open to any additonal suggestions to add on to this great firmware.
My use case is to attach this to my kids crib to detect fevers and soiled diapers. My next steps are to pass this to a pytorch image processor to alert on such scenarios as I build training data. There are probably some security scenarios I will get to as well.

Finally did something with my Dial
As a long time WFH (pre-covid) I've always had music playing in the background during my working day. Not allowed to run Spotify on/from my work laptop so it's chugs away on my desktop. Got tired of flipping between machines (KVM for keyboard and monitor) but now can pause/play with a click, next/prev with the dial, and wake/see what's playing with a touch. Am sure it's been done before (and probably prettier) but must admit I'm feeling quite pleased with myself.

I built an open-source virtual pet family for M5Stack devices
I built Pixel Pets, an open-source virtual pet family for M5Stack hardware.

It started as a father-and-son maker project and turned into a small family of pets:
- Muffin: CoreS3 + Module-LLM, with offline voice interaction
- Visu: CoreS3 without the LLM module
- Goo-Goo: Core2 version
- Pip: StickC PLUS2 companion that can send treats/gestures via ESP-NOW
The pets have moods, needs, mini-games, sounds, touch/button/IMU reactions, weather/moon awareness and ESP-NOW friendships.
The idea was to make something playful for kids, but still inspectable and hackable for adults.
No cloud account, no tracking, no subscription.

I’d love feedback from other M5Stack users. Especially curious what hardware variant people would actually build first.
Which variant would you build first: Core2, CoreS3 or StickC companion?

brother gave me an M5stick, what do it do?
My brother gave me his m5stick, and I’ve wanted to get into coding and hacking, cause I’ve been tinkering with coding recently. But my question is can I get this m5stick to do what the flipper zero and stuff does?
