M5StickC/ATOM on MacOS Catalina can't upload/ ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header solution (Solved)
-
@world101 Remember to remove the .dms file extension, which is wrongly added by Safari/MacOS. Then you should be able to execute the file by right-clicking and choosing "open in Terminal", then follow instructions.
-
Just want to confirm this solution as working for M5Stick-C and M5Atom... I'm on latest macOS 10.15.3 (19D76).
-
@sergey-maysak Theoretically this solution applicable , and we already has test , you could try it.

not working to me M5Atom LITE on osx 10.12.5
-
where is the G0 on M5Atom LITE??
-
@cepics Why do you want to upgrade ... 10.12 can support the ATOM. This upgrade tool is for those systems that don't recognize the port such as MacOS Catalina
-
I have problems to upload code on M5StickC and M5Atom LITE.....
no serial port available in tools/port menu..I have also burn with easyloader (on a win machine) to reset the modules
osx 10.12.5
arduino IDE 1.8.9 -
@cepics you could try setup the baud to 115200. then try again. or contact our store. we will help you solve it. as soon as possible
-
I'm on macos 10.15.3 and I'm asking myself too, where is G0 on the M5Atom Matrix? Although I was able to apply the described firmware, I'm not able to connect via UIFlow IDE nor Arduino IDE (1.8.9).
By the way: almost no image gets displayed on Safari from the documentation — neither iPad nor mac.
-
@herrlehmann M5Atom Matrix have not provided G0 Pin to outside. so the solustion 1 is for m5stickC. and could you use windows os test it again? maybe is the driver software problem .

no way!!! Atom serial port doesn't appear in the serial port list..... more than one cable tested....
-
No, the is (un)fortunately no Windows machine. I'm a little confused about the fact, that the above mentioned firmware is running without any problem. So there needs to be a connection between mac to m5atom in some way — or how is it writing to the device?
-
My new m5stick-C are showing up on the MacOS (10.15.3) as M5 Serial Converter, and in the Arduino IDE (latest edition). I have applied the updater as suggested in this thread, and still get this response when trying to upload from the IDE to the device: "fork/exec /Applications/Arduino 2.app/Contents/Java/tools-builder/ctags/5.8-arduino11/ctags: bad CPU type in executable
Error compiling for board M5Stick-C." -
@rschdev clearly. this is a compiling error . you should check the error information , and check you program.
-
@herrlehmann did you installed the FTDI driver? you could try delete both below files. then connect your device try again.
/Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext /Library/Extensions/FTDIKext.kext -

I had access to a Windows machine and was able to use the easy loader on my M5Atom Matrix. It is working on Windows.
For my mac:
Yes, I installed the FTDI driver, but they did not work. I've removed them as suggested, but it didn't change anything. There is still no device appearing in /dev/, so it is not accessible. -
@m5stack did you dig any deeper into this? I'm still unable to use the M5Atom Matrix on my mac with Catalina. I started over again by installing and deinstalling stuff, but no new device appears. The system recognizes the M5Atom Matrix by naming a M5 Serial Converter with following information:
Produkt-ID: 0x6001
Hersteller-ID: 0x0403 (Future Technology Devices International Limited)
Version: 4.00
Seriennummer: 79525701B4
Geschwindigkeit: Bis zu 12 MBit/s
Hersteller: M5STACK Inc.
Standort-ID: 0x14500000 / 6
Verfügbare Stromstärke (mA): 500
Erforderliche Stromstärke (mA): 100
Zusätzlicher Betriebsstrom (mA): 0I also applied the firmware update many times successfully.
@m5stack : Any other ideas? I'd like to play with it.
-
@herrlehmann did you have try to install the FTDI driver : https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
-
@nsfilho don't update to 10.15.04....
-
@m5stack : Yes, I did. By further investigating the driver, it looks like they are not working due to signing issues. I found this thread https://www.ftdicommunity.com/index.php?topic=409.msg1171#msg1171
I'm waiting on this rerelease, than I'll let you know. Thanks.
