RESOLVED - someone pointed out that the example code I was running included a line to wait for the serial port to be enabled.

Code always does what you tell it, not what you mean lol.

@TomKatt BTW, I love your Blown Away by Maxell.
The ‘Canvas’ is M5’s name for TFT_eSPI !
Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the reply! My Fire v2.7 initially had some difficulty loading with UIFlow V2 - it would just reset with blank screen. Somehow I did manage to get V2 burned and am experimenting with it now.

EDIT - if I accidentally selected Public during initial setup, how do I change that to Private mode ?

EDIT 2 - never mind, figured it out. Wasn't the most intuitive option but I reset as desired.

@ajb2k3
LOL - Silly that I never thought to check out the forums at Arduino proper... Most questions are probably generally related to generic ESP32 discussions, but there also seems to be a fair number of M5Stack users as well ;-)

Perhaps I'll see some of you folks there...

@TomKatt

Cheers!

@TomKatt check M5Stack github

Couldn't decide, so I bought both lol.

Each seems to have some different strengths - the Fire has more ports, the cool magnetic base and physical buttons that often work better than touchscreens. As such it's great for tinkering. But the Core 2 seems a bit more 'polished' for portable applications.
