16MB flash setting not working about t-display-s3 HOT 9 CLOSED

I got it working with platformio. I switched the board to "esp32s3box" which has 16MB built into it. I also changed memory_type to "qio_opi" which is what arduino_esp32 2.0.4 has.

The factory example works with platformio on vscode with the latest 2.0.4 arduino_esp32.

Here is my configuration for platformio.ini.
[env:esp32s3box]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32s3box
framework = arduino

upload_speed = 921600
monitor_speed = 115200

board_build.arduino.memory_type = qio_opi
board_build.psram_type = opi

board_build.flash_mode = qio
board_build.flash_size = 16MB
board_build.partitions = ffat.csv

from t-display-s3.

I just used the Arduino to choose a 16MB flash size with a 16MB partition. Everything works fine.

I use platformio with vscode. Here is my setting in platformio.ini for 16MB flash.

board_build.partitions = default_16MB.csv
board_build.arduino.memory_type = qspi_opi
board_build.flash_size = 16MB
board_build.psram_type = opi

The board went into bootloop with message as follows.

It seems the factory example works in ArduinoIDE even with arduino_esp32 2.0.4. But not with platformio for some reason.

I guess esp32s3box and esp32s3dev should need to be modified and added in some parameters. But at the moment I haven't looked into the parameters it needs.
thanks for sharing.

I've submitted a PR to the PlatformIO project to add a board config .json file for the ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1-N16R8V board that should fix this problem.
platformio/platform-espressif32#921

I don't have the 32MB board though so someone else will need to handle that PR.

I am having issues just getting the serial monitor working on this board with platformIO. It seems inconsistent and although I got the demo working (teastain)I have not got a simple 'hello world' demo to work or the t-display-s3. I'm not sure if it is the lilygo dev board, the espressif s3 chip, platformio or my inexperience or inept inability that is the problem. Does anyone have a definitive Platformio.ini that works with this dev board?
(With apologies for high jacking the thread)

Thanks Terry,
That was very helpful.
