M5Stack MultiApp Firmware

Calin

I am working on a raw M5Stack multiApp firmware, based on @TomSuch M5StackSAM library, that include Oscilloscope, some WiFi tools, DHT, some games...

https://github.com/botofancalin/M5Stack_MultiApp_Firmware/tree/master/Precompiled_MultiFirmware

Its ALL made in one program and i still have LOTS of space to spare on the ESP32 flash memory.
Talking about the computing power... till now i use only one core. So all of this can run even on ESP8266 :)
I plan to add some heavy apps that will use the second core too.

The source code is available at https://github.com/botofancalin/M5Stack_MultiApp_Firmware

The project was eventually ported to Visual Studio with VisualMicro plugin

The project story:
The project was initially made on VS Code and PlatformIO - a very very nice IDE with a VERY fast compiler
Still... i had to fix the PlatformIO integrated ESP-IDF...
and today... the PlatformIO decided to stop working on VS Code (after a VS Code update).
Was still working fine on Atom...
Atom don't support intellisense so... i moved to Visual Studio and VisualMicro

I am open for sugestions what apps should i include into this project.
The ESP32 flash still have lot of free space.
At some time i added an Mp3 Player but i had trubles setting the volume on ESP DAC so i remove it till i find a solution

For now, i am planning to add Wifi Support (by user/pass and by WPS)

@calin Hi Calin,

Nice work !!!!!! I am interested.

I think there is quite a lot of interest in menu programs for the M5Stack. We will see how many view this topic.

Looks like you have some good apps and graphics in place already..... glad to see the packet monitor there.....

Anything else under "Meters" ? Have u seen a multi meter app ?

Be interested to see what else you come up with.

Calin

Yes. There is a multi meter included... still working on it...
I just collected a bunch of apps and included them all in one firmware.
I was just curious how much this ESP32 can handle...
Till now, i'm impressed how good it is :)

I will need some suggestions for menu icons/images tough...

daslolo

That's a lot of apps.
This guy managed to render 3D in flat shaded, this would be a great way to show off the title menu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t1_XNc3vNw ... on composite video :)

OMG alll those apps fantastic! Please, please please share that goodness!!!!

@Calin, I REALLY like this project. My M5Stack (2018) is not very happy with the bottom and battery so I will most likely keep it powered via USB most of the time. Having multiple tools available via the menu is fantastic. Some data logging to SD apps would be great, including the meter app. It would also be great to have a simple logic analyzer available. Thanks for your great work! I need to setup a VS environment now ;)

Check out the evolved project : https://github.com/botofancalin/M5Stack_SuperApp_PlatformIO
That one is made on Visual Studio Code and PlatformIO
This one contain a web server, Wifi settings, WPS, etc...

hm... logic analyzer... it can be done...
what exactly do you need to analyze?

Any other suggestions ?

pkourany

@calin, I have seen code for doing a simple I2C sniffer/decoder and possibly one for OneWire. Those would be really useful next to a simple 4-channel logic analyzer with trigger set, sampling rate and small buffer. Suggestions!!! I'm working on it.

Since oscillo works, you can also graph FFT and from that detect Hz +THD.
Benefit: detects the quality of the electricity and helps troubleshoot and predict issues.

I started a project on that, measurements are out of wack, maybe we can work together on it?

Dont work precompiled software. My log file is:
rst:0x10 (RTCWDT_RTC_RESET),boot:0x17 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
flash read err, 1000
ets_main.c 371

First, compile and write any example from M5Stack library to your m5Stack, using arduino IDE or any any other preffered IDE.
Then flash the precompiled firmware to address 0x10000

Check out the flashing instructions jpg

Murzik

@calin Complete M5Stack-SAM. This software worked fine. Complete on flashing instructions jpg.
Dont worked! Any more ideas?

Calin

It might be the chip revision i tested the multiapp only on M5 with chip revision 1
The MultiApp source code is available on github.
Compile the code and upload

M5Stack MultiApp Advanced released: http://forum.m5stack.com/topic/194/m5stack-multiapp-advanced-firmware
Back to PlatformIO IDE :)

With Web Radio and wifi auto-connection WPS!

The app seems to be broken. I have tried compiling it as per the instructions on a windows 11 and on a mac. I get the same errors on both. Can anyone please help me? Here is the error code from VS.
