Unable to flash with m5launcher

[anotherdoesnm]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
I tried to compile and install lvgl_micropython for my T-Deck Plus (because want to port one project which are based at lvgl_micropython) but it's failed (m5launcher shows update failed)

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
Successful flashing

Exact make and model number of the MCU that you are compiling for or the firmware is running on.

• Model: Lilygo T-Deck Plus

For ESP32 MCU's The PSRAM and FLASH SPI type, quad SPI or octal SPI.

• PSRAM: Octal
• FLASH: Quad

I need to know the OS and OS version of the machine that compiled the binary. If using a VM then I need to know the OS and OS version the VM is running. (WSL == VM)

• OS: [e.g. iOS] Debian 13 in Proxmox LXC

Build Command

python make.py esp32 BOARD=ESP32_GENERIC_S3

Also have build for quad psiram because planning to port two devices at the same time
Upd: also reported to launcher repo

I don't know what the m5launcher is. The firmware flashes using esptool. when you do a build the last line outputs the command that you will need to run to flash the ESP32 you need to go into dev/serial to locate the specific port your esp32 is plugged into and update that command with the port your esp32 is attached to..

If you are using WSL i suggest downloading an app called WSL USB which will allow you to forward the USB port the ESP32 is plugged into so you are able to access it from WSL.

I don't know what the m5launcher is.

M5Launcher aka Bmorcelli Launcher is firmware for esp32 devices which allows quickly switching between firmwares by just uploading .bin files to sdcard
Most firmwares just works out of the box (except some which are used non-standarted partitions like RetroGo or Tactility)

[kdschlosser]

well then this falls into the same category as RetroGo. the partitions are created on the fly so the partitions are going to be different based on the MCU being used and the options that are being used.

[anotherdoesnm]

@kdschlosser maybe but retrogo doesn't crash while installing, they just have bugs (which are fixed by custom build)

[kdschlosser]

I have never used what you are trying to use and I can only imagine it is going to be exceedingly slow because of the binary size being as large as it is and loading it from an SDCard reader attached to the esp32 over an SPI connection is going to be grewling.

[anotherdoesnm]

okay, i flashed directly as you want
it just doesn't appear as serial device after flashing
Also seems beta version of launcher flashed without errors but i didn't got excepted result

[anotherdoesnm]

maybe i'm too "green", idk
