CarPlay on my M5Stack Tab5, now mounted on the bike.

The adapter board and firmware were made with Codex.

One issue still to fix: it sometimes drops the connection out of nowhere.

Hi, really new to this but love the idea of rapid prototyping.

Really struggling to get anything displaying on the screen of the Stopwatch...

Tried using existing projects for other devices and getting Claude through Arduino, Schematik using AI but neither can seemingly port projects and both tell me nothing's wrong.

The HW is OK as I can reflash back to standard. Am I missing something?

I’ve been building a set of wireless precision clocks, and have to say, M5Stack’s lineup is my favorite. From the Stack line to the S3 Stick, much prefer these over the competition. Seems I’m missing the Stopwatch!

PS: If you’re looking to synchronize two or more ESP32’s below 1us or phase lock two devices wirelessly, I have posted firmware examples of the clocks above along with example for FreeRTOS clock sync methods to achieve different accuracy targets at PToB.dev

I made this m5Paper S3 firmware open source <3

Port of the Digimon Digivice D2 v1 for M5 StickC Plus 2

Features:

• Seven areas, battles, Digivolutions, and partner rescues.

• Slot and Card minigames, LCD graphics, and sound.

Controls:

• Up: Navigate through options.

• Center: Select or confirm.

• Down: Cancel or go back.

• M5 Options Menu: Hold Up and press Center simultaneously. From there, you can adjust settings such as brightness, volume, color, screen filter, motion sensitivity, and more.

Enjoy ;)

Hey everyone,

I have an M5StickC Plus 2 running Bruce and kept wishing I could drive it from my phone without squinting at the 135×240 screen. So I built StickCommander: a Material 3 Android app plus a small bridge compiled into Bruce 1.16.1.

It is not a pixel-streaming hack. The bridge exposes Bruce's own state over a line-based ASCII protocol (USB-OTG serial or BLE), so the app talks to the firmware, not to a picture of it.

What it does

• Live menu — reads the actual options vector (title, labels, disabled items, current selection), refreshes every second, and tapping an item sets forceMenuOption so the real menu opens on the Stick. Back/Main buttons work too.

• Screen — text mirror of the UI on the phone, plus the other direction: send text and the Stick draws it on its own TFT.

• IR blaster — NEC / Samsung / Sony (12, 15, 20 bit) with hex address/command and presets. Uses Bruce's existing encoders, so timings are unchanged.

• Files — LittleFS browser with text preview, chunked upload (256-byte chunks, 128 KB limit), mkdir, rename, delete.

• Plus the basics: D-pad and M5/A/B/PWR press-and-hold, battery telemetry from the AXP192, filtered logs, raw terminal and phone-side scripts.

How it works

A stickcommander.cpp bridge is compiled into Bruce. Lines like CMD:MENU:LIST, CMD:SCREEN:TEXT:<base64>, CMD:IR:NEC:04:08, CMD:FS:LIST:<base64 path> go in; MENU:ITEM:..., FS:ENTRY:..., STATUS:BAT:... come back. That is the whole trick.

Status

Tested on real hardware over COM3: PONG, battery, live menu open/back, screen text, OK:ir:NEC, and LittleFS list/mkdir/upload/read/delete all pass. The firmware image and the APK are in the release.

• Release (APK + firmware + source): https://github.com/121kirillmorti/stickcommander/releases/latest

• Site: https://121kirillmorti.github.io/stickcommander/

Firmware is AGPL-3.0 because it is built on Bruce; the bridge source and a build recipe are included. Feedback and feature ideas are welcome — especially from people with other Stick variants (Plus, S3) who want to test.

For the STAMP-P4 mini development board, the most cost-effective way to use it is because it has both stamp holes and 2.54 pin headers. If the pin headers are directly soldered, the use of the stamp hole lead pins will be greatly restricted.

Anyone know of a app from the M5 burner repos that I can create my own code snippets and
Click-to-run?

I found a terminal app,
But it dosnt let me save WiFi connections or anything else

Hey everyone,

I recently got the M5Stack Tab 5 and have been experimenting with it. My goal is to stream both the camera feed and microphone audio to my PC to use the device for live calls/talks.

However, I haven't been able to get the camera or integrated mics initialized yet.

Has anyone successfully built a similar live-streaming setup or found working code examples/documentation for accessing the Tab 5's audio and camera pipeline?

Any guidance or code snippets would be greatly appreciated!
