Help!
-
Hello everyone,
I have an M5Stick Plus2 (ESP32-S3) and I tried to flash the Bruce firmware using an Android phone with OTG. I use esp32 flasher app.
Here is exactly what I did:
Device: M5Stick Plus2
Flashing from Android phone (OTG)
Bootloader: AUTO
Baud rate: 115200
Compression: OFF
Erase Flash: ON
Used a Plus2 / ESP32-S3 compatible .bin file
Flash process completed successfully (no error)
After flashing:
The green LED turns on
The device is detected over USB
But the screen stays completely black
Power button works (LED reacts), but no display at all
I also tried:
Erase Flash multiple times
Power reset (long press)
Flashing again with the same settings
Result is always the same: LED on, no screen output.
From what I understand, the device is not hard-bricked, but possibly:
Wrong/incomplete display initialization
Missing stock firmware / partitions
Firmware incompatibility with Plus2 screen driver
My questions:
Is this a known issue when flashing Bruce on M5Stick Plus2?
Is reflashing the official stock firmware (via M5Burner on PC) the correct recovery method?
Is there any way to fully recover the display without a PC, or is a PC required?
After restoring stock firmware, can Bruce be safely reinstalled again?
Any help or confirmation would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
