@teastain
UIflow 2 / Select device / RED dot next to the CoreS3 graphic. Same applies to CoreS3

silly question but you are logged in to Uiflow2 with same login credentials as in M5Burner (bind)

see my core2 example core2_0.JPG

before you give up.

For the dot to turn green of any M5Core in the My Device list the M5Core needs to have a wireless connection and an established connection to the UIFlow2 cloud server.

On the initial UIFlow2 screen on the M5Core there are two symbols, one for wireless and one for the cloud server, in the top right corner (next to the battery symbol).

  • the wireless symbol needs to be not crossed out.
  • the cloud server symbol needs to be without question mark.

Below are the steps these two icons go through after boot up / reset of the M5Core:

UIFlow2_WirelessOK_CloudNOK_20241018.png Wireless ok - Cloud not ok

UIFlow2_WirelessOK_CloudOK_20241018.png Wireless ok - Cloud ok

Thanks
Felix

@PhilB79 you have to use M5Burner when loogged in so firmware update "binds" your device in to your uiflow account and then it is visible on the list if connected to internet.

Yes I use the full process of Erase, Bind and Burn. Tried many time but still the Red dot in device select.
I'm about to give up and put the lot in the bin and go back to ESP32s

Like a generic serial monitor test?
