@dsrc12 said in UIFlow 1.6.6: @m5stack I had problems downloading firmware updates for cores and drivers for the Arduino IDE over the last 5 days but today it all went well. All downloads worked and my test code on Fire also worked. I was able to download the latest version for Core Ink: 1.6.6.1 and it was able to connect and accept firmware from my Windows PC UIFlow IDE on-line (V1.6.6) but it would not execute any simple programs on Core Ink. It had problems with Core 2 and ended up abandoned it and completed my latest projects with Fire - it is a good stable platform and works with the latest firmware (1.6.6). Have you tried repeating the process with UIFlow 1.4.5? is the issue only happens on 1.6.6 or also on 1.4.5? I will look into it to see what's going on.

@revta Yes, it's seems to be configuration issue in your machine, please try to do the following: python -m pip install pyserial See if it can solve the issue for you.

@zontex I have set up another PC with Windows and as you said everything is fine there, I just prefer not to use Windows. I also tried the web version on my Ubuntu machine and everything works well there as well. I will wait to hear from you when a solution for the Linux Desktop IDE is available. Thanks again.

@ajb2k3 ok this is clear thanks but which firmware do I need to use if I want to use MP not with UIFlow but with Pycharm or Thonny for instance? Should I use the UIFlow fw provided by M5Stack or the default ESP32 MP fw from MicroPython.org ? Thanks

Zontex, Thank you so much for your help and for the explanation! Best regards, Raquel

Hello @ckuehnel Without opening M5CoreInk you probably cannot measure battery voltage with a multimeter. However you can use GPIO35 to read the battery voltage. Check out float getBatVoltage() here. BTW: I've opened my M5CoreInk today and added some photos to my page (link below). Measuring power consumption in light sleep, deep sleep and shutdown will be next. Cheers Felix

@mb It doesn't show internet connectivity because the M5Stack device is operating on AP mode (no internet connection) it expects you to open your browser and enter the IP address 192.168.4.1 so you could give it your wifi credentials, once the M5Stack is connected to your wifi network you can start using it using UIFlow

@ikabou Bug confirmed and reported, we will release a fix in the next update.

@soky157 That is not the code, it's the ID of the M5Stack device, if it's connected to your WiFi network you should see the code if not then it's in AP mode, you should look for the access point with the name M5-XXXX connect to it and navigate to 192.168.4.1 and enter your wifi credentials, then your M5Stack device will get connected to the WiFi and will show you the API KEY code

Hi @felmue thanks for your clear answers, I don't thin it's possible to stretch it longer than what you did, that's pretty much what is possible right now using UIFlow with this bar widget

Hi, I just ran some test and the LED doesn't work if the lithium battery in the base is below 3.8 volts. the microprocessor wont start up and so the M5StickC can't communicate.

@adamm Hi Adam, please send me email to roni@m5stack.com and I will personally take care of this issue for you.

Hi @dsrc12 Thank you for your very detailed feedback, we've done few changes on our server side configuration so now the download speed should be solved. regarding some other connections issues with M5Stack devices, we are looking into it and we definitely will put more care into the testing process before release, we really appreciate the feedback as it helps us to help you guys get better experience using our products.

Hi, I suggest contacting with the store directly as I suspect you have a faulty device - they could help you arrange a replacement.

Hello @sodoku that is actually not a bad idea. I'll keep that in mind. Thank you for suggesting it. Cheers Felix
