        Quick one, do you know where the source code for m5base is?

        ALso, with ampy, have you been able to get into directories past /flash.

        WHenever I try and list things inside say lib(/flash/lib), it say it isn't a directory?

            which micropython version are you using? if you did a custom flash not from the official m5stack burner you may have forgotten to flash the .spiffs file which contains all the folders and files you want to put on the filesystem

              Hey Luke,
              thanks for getting back to me. I flashed with the flash.sh (I'm on linux) including all the .spiffs file.

              However, when I try to get I get the following.

                Strange, which version of the firmware are you using, could you post the log from flash.sh process or the command you used, maybe the files are not getting written to the correct memory addresses, usually it should look like this

                "--chip esp32 --port %port --baud %baud write_flash -z 0x1000 %PATH\bootloader.bin 0xf000 %PATH\phy_init_data.bin 0x10000 %PATH\MicroPython.bin 0x8000 %PATH\partitions_mpy.bin",
                "--chip esp32 --port %port --baud %baud --before default_reset --after no_reset write_flash -z --flash_freq 40m 0x170000 %PATH\spiffs_image_0x170000.img"

                    I have a feeling however, I did not do this properly. However everything seems to be working fine besides not being able to get into the system, and not being able to change font..

                      @foxhound Maybe, you need install python2.7 for compiling this firmware. A year ago, I compiled a micropython firmware with python3. And the serial monitor displayed some error which seem like yours.

                        Good idea, thanks mate!

                        Also, can you tell me how to properly change the font? I'm trying to increase the size.

                        lcd.font(FONT_DejaVu18)
                        

                        Doesn't compile

                         lcd.font("FONT_DejaVu18")
                        

                        Doesn't do anything?

                          lcd.font doesn't work. try something like

                          from m5stack import *
                          from m5ui import *
                          
                          clear_bg(0x222222)
                          
                          
                          
                          btnA = M5Button(name="ButtonA", text="ButtonA", visibility=False)
                          btnB = M5Button(name="ButtonB", text="ButtonB", visibility=False)
                          btnC = M5Button(name="ButtonC", text="ButtonC", visibility=False)
                          label1 = M5TextBox(118, 116, "Text", lcd.FONT_Default,0xFFFFFF, rotate=0)
                          
                          
                          label1.setFont(lcd.FONT_DejaVu24)
                          

                          Here I am using a label for text.

                            The fonts used on the m5stack are bitmap fonts and therefore are not scalable, they are whatever size they were converted in. A while back on our forums one of our users loboris who is an active developer in the micropython community developed a cool tool to convert any font file in any size you want to a .fon bitmap font format, you cant find it here http://forum.m5stack.com/topic/388/cahnge-font-size-in-python/20

                              Awesome, of course, I needed to call lcd.FONT_DejaVu24.
                              However, I did manage to get lcd.font(lcd.FONT_DejaVu24) to work fine for me. I just called it at the top of my script and all is well.

                              @lukasmaximus
                              Thanks, I'll take a look at that, so far DejaVu24 is working well for me. But if i need to make it larger I'll be sure to check that out.
