Infinite reboot loop on ESP32

[TrinomCZ]

Hello,
I'm trying to use your library on ESP32. I tried both C3 and S3, but once the program is built and uploaded, the device ends up in an infinite reboot loop.

These are the values from User_Setup.h
// For ESP32 Dev board (only tested with ILI9341 display)
// The hardware SPI can be mapped to any pins

#define TFT_MISO 5
#define TFT_MOSI 6
#define TFT_SCLK 4
#define TFT_CS 7 // Chip select control pin
#define TFT_DC 2 // Data Command control pin
#define TFT_RST 3 // Reset pin (could connect to RST pin)
//#define TFT_RST -1 // Set TFT_RST to -1 if display RESET is connected to ESP32 board RST

Driver is currently left as default ILI9341. The other pin definition has been commented. Nothing else was changed.

Regardless of what arduino example I use, the ESP32 ends up in infinite reboot loop. This is what it sends over the serial over and over again.

Any ideas, what should I look for?

[Basitadam]

TFT_eSPI_ESP32_C3.zip

Try with this. Extract and copy the file to "..\Arduino\libraries\TFT_eSPI\Processors" . Recompile and upload. (make sure to save a copy of your original file first, just in case)

And for S3 board, add this line to your setup.h file:

#define USE_HSPI_PORT

[Basitadam]

Oh no. My bad. Forgot to send the include file. Sorry. Please copy these two files to "..\Arduino\libraries\TFT_eSPI\Processors"
C3.zip

Sorry

[TrinomCZ]

Yes, this helped. Thank you very much!
Don't worry, worse things happen :)
Now commes the fun part - I need to make it working with ILI9327.

[Basitadam]

HappyFace(true);

Can be done. I have done it. Made a file set for ST77196.
Get a datasheet of ILI9327
Find a working init code
Check the other ILI9xxx files
Adapt

Let me know how it goes

[TrinomCZ]

Yes, that's my plan. I have the datasheet handy, so I will copy and modify one set of the ILI configuration files.
I will keep it for tomorrow most likely, but I will let you know and share the files too.

[hi-one-gg]

Was it executed well? I am also using the ESP32-C3 and ILI9341 LCD module. I am experiencing an infinite reboot like you.

[RDJunc]

Not sure you are aware of this but the TFT_eSPI library only works with the ESP32 core v2.0.14 or lower. If you are using a core with a higher version, just load the lower version into your IDE through the board manager.

[Basitadam]

I am on ESP core V3.1.1 and works just fine

[hi-one-gg]

I am on ESP32-c3-super-mini core V3.1.1 and doesn't work.

[RDJunc]

Well that is wonderful news! I wonder what changed to make it now work?

I guess I spoke too soon. At least the one application of mine that uses this library, does not like the v3.1.1 core. I guess it is back to 2.0.14 when I need to use this library.

[RDJunc]

When I moved up to 3.1.1, it compiles but I get an upload error regarding the inability to configure the COM port. (A device attached to the system is not functioning.) But it does upload. The code give me the message "LittleFS Initialization done." but fails somewhere sortly after that. And then it loops over and over again.

[RDJunc]

[Basitadam]

Library starts OK. I don't have your display so it stops at TouchCal:

[RDJunc]

Well that is certainly the right output once the code complies and uploads. There must be something different with my setup. I'll just have to dig further.

Thanks very much.

[Basitadam]

You are on PlatformIO I guess. Can you try with Arduino IDE 2.3.4.
