micropython-camera-driver VS st7789_mpy

I've downloaded the 1.4MB firmware (https://github.com/lemariva/micropython-camera-driver/blob/master/firmware/micropython_camera_feeeb5ea3_esp32_idf4_4.bin) and flashed it and every time I do, it gives me an infinite loop. Corrupted files. I've tried flashing it from ESPtool in the terminal and also within Thonny, same result. I don't know what I'm doing wrong because the firmware completes flashing without errors. I've also tried the other firmware (https://github.com/lemariva/micropython-camera-driver/blob/master/firmware/micropython_cmake_9fef1c0bd_esp32_idf4.x_ble_camera.bin).

All of these things work fine for me on dev boards. I am using a Camera enabled https://github.com/lemariva/micropython-camera-driver firmware here that comes with Micropython.

Are you using C/C++ or MicroPython? I have used https://github.com/russhughes/st7789_mpy successfully. There are actually two/three libraries related to st7789 displays if this I the one you are using. As already commented, please share a link to the display or some more information about it.

The colour being mangled turns out to be an endian difference between the MPU and the display device, easily determined by looking at the code for the display driver, which byte-swaps everything when drawing into the device, unless it's blitting a buffer, when it assumes it's already swapped. Fixed.

I ended up making it work but with no help from LilyGo. There's an awesome repo here that includes pre-compiled binaries for the device, libraries for its hardware peripherals, and some code examples
