Adafruit Huzzah esp8266 breakout does not work with OTA

Posting it up.

OK, so the issue is I have a esp8266 breakout board that i am using for testing. I'd like to be able to program OTA because its faster. However, when try to upload OTA it says "upload done" in the arduino IDE, but the esp8266 appears to enter bootloader mode. Pressing the reset button on the esp8266 board doens't bring it back out of bootloader. It stays like that until i upload new code via serial.

I have used this with ESP12 modules that i've solderd on to PCBs in the pat without issue... but it doesnt seem to work on the huzzah breakout. Anyone familiar with this issue?

I doubt that the OTA problems you faced are related with the hardware.
It is most likely a software issue. What is the kind of firmware do you use ?

Yes most ESP8266 Modules are the same, the only difference normally is pinout and how the bootloader operates, so as long as your able to load code, its most likely a software issue.

I am pretty sure it is not a software issue.

Here is a schematic i am using using an esp12 module. It works with OTA programming.

The huzzah breakout board does not.

I have uploaded the same code to each board. After i upload, the huzza product will upload, but when it resets it resest into bootloader. With my own ESP, it resets into normal mode.

Code: Select all#include <Wire.h>
