Funhouse Factory Reset - Newer version

[Gandou]

Hello,

I purchased the Adafruit Funhouse Starter kit from Digikey near the end of last month and everything works just as intended, following the tutorials.

However, when I performed the factory reset by dragging the uf2 file from here:
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-fun ... tory-reset

I noticed that the display on the board is not the same as what it was like out of the box.

The characters on the display were changing color in a rolling motion, you could see the action of the capacitive slider, etc.

It looks like my board came with an updated version of the factory reset setting/files,
but the UF2 file from the github seems older.

Is there a way to get my board back to what it was ?

Regards,

Hi, you might be looking for the Arduino selftest code ?

Hello,

I just tried the Arduino Self Test Example you linked and that is the same code as what the "Factory Reset" is doing.
With all of the text in yellow and such, but without the capacitive slider.

Perhaps someone with a brand new Funhouse can confirm if it is showing much more than what this Self Test Example is producing ?

I could try to reset its bootloader completely but I would prefer not to go there since my board works just fine.

All of your help is much appreciated.

It's not the same code.
Are you sure you copied the correct file and not the other one from your download directory ?
It's called FunHouse_SelfTest.UF2, not adafruit-funhouse-factory-reset.UF2.
Was the file correctly downloaded ? (or the bootloader won't flash it)

Here is the direct link: https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/a ... lfTest.UF2

Have you been able to flash anything on the board ?
Have you tried flashing Circuitpython for example to see if that works ?
What does INFO_UF2.TXT say in HOUSEBOOT ?

Ha haa it works now !

On this page:
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-fun ... st-example

The file "FunHouse_SelfTest.UF2" you can download and drag-n-drop does not contain the same code as the .ino code in plain text below.

That's why I was confused.

Thanks for the help !

By the way, is there a way to extract the code that it is running from the UF2 file ?
I would like to know how it has been programmed.

Oh oops I missed that the code is actually not the same as the UF2.
I'll ask about it, it looks like the code was not updated, or maybe the wrong code was uploaded.
