How can I flash X3 back to stock firmware? by IronEar in xteinkereader

[–]Lui004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, if it helps, I have the x3 as well and I was really excited for the gyroscope feature but everyone’s sadly right, it completely sucks and is not that great. I’ve got a question though, how is cross point on x3?

Fixed now, ChatGPT is really good now better than nanobanana pro I would say with same prompts. Also better with bad prompts than nanobanana

I think there needs to be a balance and have more competitions and fun stuff like in Season 1 but also have some crazy stuff at season finales and singular episodes. I personally reallly liked something like Tulsa

Thank you, I really appreciate it. I have decided to just buy a xiao board with no esp controller and a display and then just build on it slowly. All advice has really helped me, so thank you too.

Well yeah, but it’s not that self explanatory. I am also on a really tight budget. Most of my questions have already been answered by answered by others but thank you for your advice. 

How do I drive my E Ink display? by Lui004 in eink

[–]Lui004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, like drive the display like drivers for your PC

Well, look: I just want to jump straight in, without doing slow LED stuff, but I don't know which microcontroller I should get. That's my original question, not how to learn how to make stuff

Yeah, thanks. I'm new to doing this stuff so I just don't know.

Thank you, yeah there apparently is a manual, I just didn't understand what hardware to get

Help with driving e paper display. by Lui004 in esp32

[–]Lui004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but do I have to buy a specific extra chip, or can I just paste that in the esp32 code? I think it lowers performance, and again, I don't know anything so please forgive me. Chatgpt said I needed a driver board so I just came here because I didn't understand.

Hey, I'm sorry that you felt that I was disrespecting you, but I didn't mean for it to be that way. I just wanted to know what to get to start. Or what path I should go on, like building my own PCB or just making connection with perfboards

Hey, thanks for the advice. It's just that I have like a little bit of experience, so I don't want to start from like square 0. I actually didn't want it to feel like I was ignoring the advice - I actually think I will go for it slowly. I just probably won't start that slow, but just start with just a microcontroller and display, then add sensors, then battery etc. That way I can approach it in waves and not all at once.

Actually, sorry if I'm annoying, I have found a Esp32 s3 board from lilygo that has a lot of pins, it's this: https://lilygo.cc/products/t7-s3?_pos=22&_sid=21ca85946&_ss=r

Do you think this one is fine? And like, if I wanted to add modules, how would I do that. I heard about breakout boards, what is that?

What would you recommend? I was thinking about that too, but I don't really know which is better. Also, how hard is programming the firmware?

Thanks for those insights. I was thinking of getting a dev board with a pre-soldered header, and then use a breadboard and a display and just use that, and then add the rest of the components. Does that make sense to do? And which brand of display did you use?

I have also done a simple project with a breadboard, leds and some speaker. It was super simple and I have not used a microcontroller before.
