M5Apps - multiple apps installer
-
this might be a dumb question but is there any way to get a bin file for m5 launcher
-
@bigchease no, you have to flash full firmware (bootloader, PT, nvs, and the rest). Thans why you have to use some other flasher like M5Burner or esptools.

Hi, are you talking about M5 Launcher project or something different?
I'm confused (new user) as the version numbers seem very different between what you say and what I see on M5 Burner.
Thanks
PS is there any chance of something like this for Tab5? -
Would this project ever be open-source? I was trying to create such a firmware manager for my Tab5 device and was encountering troubles, the M5Launcher's approach was strange (seems like it needs a custom bootloader which I don't have) so I wanted to check M5Apps out. It would be the best if M5Apps are open source.

If this broke your cardputer here is how to fix it:
Before plugging your cardputer in hold the GO button and then plug in the cable. Cardputer will enter the download mode and you can then flash everything you want!

Hello,
Nice job !!! very interesting approch with no burning in between apps
But memory is a real limit
How to uninstall unused app from memory ?
Thanks

@cricri There is FDISK utility built-in.
You can list all the partitions and delete those are not used anymore. System partitions are read-only, so you will not delete anything extra.
Also you can create new partition at any time. For example, the Game Station requires spare partition for cache. so just add it in FDISK with a few clicks.@dzepetko said in M5Apps - multiple apps installer:

By default the SDK (ESP-IDF) makes firmware bundle with default partitions, But the thing is: application could not use it at all or use one of them. So we can cook a binary with only partitions that really need by the app. This can save much space.
