Retrieve a coredump - Szybet/InkWatchy GitHub Wiki

Coredump is the optional info saved on an esp32 of the latest crash. Luckly InkWatchy enables it and automates the process of retrieving it. Step by step:

Notes:

  • You don't need a debug build for this to work
  • Don't recompile / change config.h then recompile - You need the same build on your PC as on your device

First setup:

  1. Click this button:

Then this button:

From now on the process will be called "Launch coredump"

It will now download some things, it can take time, then it will fail

  1. Go to resources/tools/other/debug/getCoreDump.sh and follow the instructions on top of the file

Retrieving it:

  1. Connect your watchy to your PC, make sure it's connected, it's seen
  2. Make sure platformio monitor is not launched
  3. Launch coredump
  4. Copy the text for me to analyse

Done
