Hello @SE
thank you for sharing. The answer is not really surprising though - the required SDCard detect pin is not connected at all according to the schematics of M5Stack (Fire, Gray, etc.) and M5Core2.
Interestingly it is connected in M5Paper, so SDCard detection should be possible there. But before you get your hopes up - SDCard support is not available yet in the UIFlow alpha version for M5Paper.
Thanks
Felix
