my new Core2 has just been delivered and I believe my Win10 install is working fine (I can successfully burn and run other downloadable apps such as draw_by_touch or Core2FactoryTest) but burning UIFlow_Core2 v1.7.1-core2 (or any other previous version actually) doesn't work :</p>
<p dir="auto">the device turns on, screen turns on too but only displays an empty black screen (not the expected UIFlow logo or anything)</p>
<p dir="auto">(please find below the M5Burner log that reports it was successfully burnt -- please see log below)</p>
<p dir="auto">could you  think of something critical I am missing here?<br />
many thanks,</p>

I'm not sure, but it seems that the display mechanism in Arduino and the display mechanism in UIFlow are different, and even if Factory Test works normally, it may not work properly in UIFlow.</p>

I tried v1.7.1.1, v1.7.1, v1.7.0, v1.6.6 and they are all the same and have a black screen.<br />
It's HW problem?</p>

Core2 that has not been displayed with UIFlow for 2 days since I bought it, suddenly, yes suddenly, when I reset Core2, something was displayed, and every time I reset it, the display was distorted or displayed upside down. After several resets, the display is now showing normally.</p>
<p dir="auto">I feel that there is an unstable part in the display-related HW. Firmware is UIFlow_Core2-v1.7.1.1-core2.bin.</p>

<a href="https://github.com/tuupola/micropython-ili934x/blob/master/ili934x.py" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://github.com/tuupola/micropython-ili934x/blob/master/ili934x.py</a></p>
<p dir="auto">I copied the above library to Core2 and ran the following code from the serial console.</p>
<pre><code>import ili934x
from machine import Pin, SPI
spi = SPI(miso=Pin(38), mosi=Pin(23, Pin.OUT), sck=Pin(18, Pin.OUT))
display = ili934x.ILI9341(spi, cs=Pin(5), dc=Pin(15), rst=Pin(4))
display.fill(ili934x.color565(0xff, 0x11, 0x22))
display.pixel(120, 160, 0)
display.print('1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ')
     :     :     :
display.print('1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ')
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">As a result, the characters are displayed as shown in the image below.<br />
I'm not sure what this means, but can it help analyze the problem?</p>

Core2FactoryTest and draw_by_touch work fine, but UIFlow_Core2 v1.7.1.1-core2 (I also tried v1.7.0 / v1.7.1) doesn't work.</p>
<p dir="auto">However, it seems running with black screen. I tried connect to Core2 from UIFlow Cloud and run the program. print() can print text to the serial console, but M5Label will show nothing on the Core2 screen. just black screen.</p>
<p dir="auto">I tried burn with low baudrate (115200), but nothing changed</p>

<p dir="auto">After many attempts, I finally tried the 1.7.0 version, and it worked ! Maybe try this version instead of the latest one.</p>

<p dir="auto">just to be clear, when you run the Factory Test the screen in your M5Core2 works, correct? correct. here's a screenshot of the test running:</p>
<p dir="auto">![alt text](<img src="/assets/uploads/files/1609747949307-img-2857-small.jpg" alt="0_1609747947765_IMG-2857 (Small).jpg" class=" img-fluid img-markdown" /> image url)</p>
<p dir="auto">After burning UIFlow, have you tried to reset your M5Stack with the reset button?<br />
Also have you tried to fully shutdown your M5Stack by pressing and holding the power button, then power it on again?</p>
<p dir="auto">the device has been reset and turned off and on multiple times indeed.<br />
so weir, I reckon...</p>

I indeed erased and burnt UIFlow mutlitpl times from different Windows laptops with the same (bad) results :(<br />
could it be a faulty unit then? even if the FactoryTest reports total success?</p>

<p dir="auto">hmm, that is strange. I've just verified with my M5Core2 and after burning UIFlow_Core2 v1.7.1-core2 it restarted with UIFlow just fine.</p>
<p dir="auto">Have you tried to re-download the UIFlow firmware? (Although I don't think that is the issue as my burning shows exactly the same amount of data written as yours, and the hash is verified as well.)</p>
<p dir="auto">Maybe try to erase your M5Core2 from within M5Burner first the burn again?</p>
