M5paper stuck in - M5EPD initializing...OK - loop

[NilsMinor]

Describe the bug

I tested some examples from this library(Touch, Button ...) and always see the same issue with my M5Paper board. It constantly restarts and is stuck in a loop printing "M5EPD initializing...OK" The full verbose output can be found below:

[ 2856][W][sd_diskio.cpp:174] sdCommand(): no token received

To reproduce

This happens with every project. I selected the M5paper as board (see image)

I also tried to upload the example with Platform IO with the following configuration:

[env:next-dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
upload_speed = 2000000
monitor_speed = 115200
upload_port = /dev/cu.wchusbserial537A0111951
lib_deps = m5stack/M5EPD@^0.1.4

Expected behavior

I haven't change a single line of code so just wanted to run the example. The M5Burner works for me, I have tested this :)

Screenshots

No response

Environment

• OS:
• IDE &IDE Version:
• Tested with Arduino IDE and PIO in Vscode, both in the latest version
• Repository Version:

Additional context

• Can you help me, why is the board restarting all the time?
• What is the right platform-io configuration?

Thanks and best regards,
Nils

FYI the exact same behavior happens with this example project (https://github.com/m5stack/M5Paper_FactoryTest )

I get this as output, over and over again:
M5EPD initializing...[ 2629][D][M5EPD_Driver.cpp:68] begin(): Init SUCCESS.

[ 3536][D][font_render.c:63] font_cache_init(): Chace use 51104 bytes

Any help is highly appreciated as I really have no idea why it is restarting all the time, but burning the examples from m5burner works fine with my setup (Mac + usb cable + m5paper)

Ok I've made some progress. It seems to be related to the touch initialization and the esp framework version. I used the latest version 5.2.0 and this didn't work BUT with version 5.1.1 of ESP it is working. I have no idea what has changed but this was breaking this library :)

Hi, I have the same error and boot loop. Managed to narrow the error down to newer version of espressif/arduino-esp32; worked on 2.0.4, crashing on 2.0.5.

Managed to get code working by adding
platform_packages = framework-arduinoespressif32@3.20004.220825
to platformio.ini.

But I also have no idea which change broke it.

Thanks for the insight :) lets hope it will be fixed in the next release :)
