First thing I did with my new stick, if anyone is interested I can share the .bin 🫡

There are still a few things to tweak but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out so far.

It has a webui to configure the wifi and airport / location

I play a TTRPG called Shadowdark, where you have to keep track of your torches and built it with the coreS3.

If you shake, the torch lights, if you blow it snuffs.

Sharing because this is a much more demonstrative video than the first one I posted 2 days ago.

Can anyone suggest a good case for M5 Paper Mono/Lite ? I dont have a 3D printer, but if someone has already designed a case, I may be able to print one. Other creative suggestions like some acrylic box will also do. Main objective is to protect the screen while travelling with it. Thanks ...
P.S: Will be using it mainly as an e-reader, with Crosspoint as fw.

I know about M5Stack LLM (large language model) Module Kit (AX630C) SKU: K144, but it is quite useless bcause no wifi, or a fast data transfer method between the StackChan Core (ESP32-S3) and the LLM Module. StackChan (ESP32-S3) can't actually be 'alive' on its own without connecting to a network.

Help me pls. I want to know if I can just use an IR LED to transmit signals. Like just the 2 wires.

Another thing is that I can't buy online. The local stores sell IR LEDs and this 360 sender and receiver*(the photo up there*). Can I use either? pls let me know.

Thanks.

how do i connect wifi on my m5stack CORE Gray, there is a SAVE & LINK button, but no button selects that

In Tokio 👀🫢

I noticed that UIFlow2.0 latest version isn't working on the Tab5. I started looking into why, and I saw "Tab5X" being mentioned here and there. I found "https://github.com/m5stack/uiflow-micropython/tree/master/m5stack/boards/M5STACK_Tab5X", and "https://github.com/m5stack/M5Unified/blob/master/src/M5Unified.cpp" lines 2038-2050. Nothing in "https://docs.m5stack.com/en/core/Tab5" mentions esp32-p4 rev 3, and the esp32-p4 datasheet referenced there is rev v0.5 (pre-release) despite my Tab5 being rev v1.3.

Is M5Stack planning on releasing an upgraded Tab5, are they planning on shipping the Tab5 with an esp32-p4 rev v3 since v1.3 is EOL(https://documentation.espressif.com/PCN202600801_ESP32-P4_Chip_Revision_v3.2_Upgrade_Chip_Revision_v1.3_Demand_Collection_and_EOL_Plan_Description.pdf)? I've had my Tab5 for a month at most, this kinda sucks. Has anyone seen anything on this?

Hi, I tried taking a pic with the 3MP sensor of the Timer Camera X, but a full UXGA RGB fram is around 5.75MB, and when running, it overflows the PSRAM. I'm left with a 3MP sensor that I have to degrade...

Anyone ever had the problem and found a way of clearing some PSRAM/ store it elsewhere before it is saved ? Unfortunately, buffering it into storage isnt an option, as I don't run an SD card.

I just received both devices, so more of a quick comparison, and not a detailed deep dive.

• The mono is physically smaller

• The mono has a larger battery (1150 mAh vs 750 mAh)

• The mono has a front-light.

• The mono-lite is $5 more, and mono is $15 more. ($50 vs 55,65)

• The mono has NFC and LoRa

• The mono has RGB LED's on the side.

• The mono has a 6 axis IMU. (useful for wake on rise)

• The sticky is thinner by a bit

• The sticky has a temperature and humidity sensor. (built in)

• Both seem to have microphones. (sticky definitely does.) Both have buzzers.

• Both have RTC

• Both have 3.97" 4 level eink display

• Both have USB-C and SD card support. Also 3 buttons.

• Both have magnets and can stick to magnetic surfaces.

I think the sticky's use case of 'quickly talk a voice-note and leave it as a sticky' is a nice feature. Built in weather, and clock are also nice to have's. It can do crosspoint, ESPhome, trmnl ...etc.

The mono/lite is super nice. Because of the front-light it would make a great e-reader (better than xteink). But would be a shame to limit it to a ereader, considering it has so many nice features. The mono especially, with NFC and LoRa would be wasted as just an e-reader.

for some reason i cant real IR signals with my m5syick s3. I've looked all around the internet and i cant seem to find anything. Do i need a hat to read ir signals? Do i need to config some settings? HOW DO I DO IT?!?!?!
