Building for ESP32 S3 Fails

There is no display driver for ili9433. I will have to add it.

[Type-32]

I thought I was using DISPLAY=ili9341 ?
I ran python3 make.py esp32 BOARD=ESP32_GENERIC_S3 BOARD_VARIANT=SPIRAM_OCT DISPLAY=ili9341 INDEV=gt911 and it gives me the similar "failure with exit code from ninja."

Here's log for running that line of command
idf_py_stdout_output_1155.log
idf_py_stderr_output_1155.log
the stderr output file log seems to have nothing in it.

line 477 in the terminal.log file.

RuntimeError: Display not found "ili9433"

apologies for that, that was my fault. that was the output for the command when I ran it the first time, which I corrected in the subsequent times running the command, eventually coming down to python3 make.py esp32 BOARD=ESP32_GENERIC_S3 BOARD_VARIANT=SPIRAM_OCT DISPLAY=ili9341 INDEV=gt911.

The line of command basically did not work and I tried setting INDEV to xpt2046 as well but also didn't work and didn't find a firmware.bin or bootloader.bin in the output folders. By this point I'm pretty sure I'm looking somewhere wrong...

[kdschlosser]

lets start out from square one.

Run the build command adding > output.txt to the end of it and when it is done/fails then attach that file to a post here. That will help me the most in determining what is going on.

[Type-32]

output.txt

I hope this helps. I'm running the command with same board parameters from before

python3 make.py esp32 BOARD=ESP32_GENERIC_S3 BOARD_VARIANT=SPIRAM_OCT DISPLAY=ili9341 INDEV=gt911 > output.txt

[kdschlosser]

do me a favor. in the build directory there is a file called manifest.py could you attach that file?? to do that you need to add a .txt onto the end of the file name.

[kdschlosser]

scratch that.

I found the problem and I fixed it.

[Type-32]

manifest.py.txt

(I'm still going to upload the file anyways)
is the issue fixed? If it's fixed then I can close this issue :)

[kdschlosser]

it is fixed.

Hy,
my Build for the S3 is also not working, i think the bin file is to small (2,40 MB (2.523.136 Bytes)). There is also a partion Warning in the log.
I need the bin for this device.
Maybe you can help.
My Git clone is up to date

The build process ran smoothly.
However, I am getting the same issues on the built firmware as @spienz . Flashing the firmware on to my board (using the command from the final output of the make.py command) and restarting & resetting the board doesn't switch it out of bootloader mode; it stays in the bootloader mode, so the built firmware is probably messed up or sth.

I'm not sure whether this is still related to this repo or not. My guess is it's probably something on micropython or lv_bindings library's side of stuff but I am not in a position to make this conjecture.

after you flash it you need to press the reset button on the display. that will take it out of boot loader mode.

[Type-32]

I did press it after flashing it multiple times (with the given command at the end of the output from the make.py command). It just stays in bootloader mode (idk why). I also checked that the firmware is flashed on to the thing correctly.

for additional information I'm using the USB port instead of the UART port all along. Is that why or is it because of something else? Should I attach the firmware file here?

[kdschlosser]

if you are using the USB port then you need to add --usb-otg to the build command. This will enable the REPL output to the USB CDC on the ESP32.
