Which firmware image should be used for the T-Display-S3 board?

[kf106]

And if there's a functioning bootloader, can the image just be loaded at 0x1000?

Use the firmware from the S3LCD_OCT_16M folder. The image must be loaded at 0x0.

Thank you! That worked and I now have a Python REPL that I can talk to through screen.

If I write a micropython.py program do I need to build my own firmware, or can I upload it somehow to the device so it's permanently there?

[russhughes]

You can upload py files (or mpy files compiled with mpy-cross) to your device's flash filesystem using one of several utilities like mpremote or thonny.

I'm just trying to get off the struggle bus with zero MPY knowledge. I flashed the firmware file and have a REPL I can interact with as well as run code on the board using pyboard. I don't have a tft_config module, where does that come from?

I would like to start by just running the example code.

[russhughes]

@crbn60 You need to upload one of the tft_config.py (and for a few examples, tft_buttons.py) modules for you device from the examples/config folder.

Thank you very much for taking the time @russhughes , I'm up and running.

@crbn60 You're welcome, enjoy.
