Feather Huzzah won't program - "Invalid head of packet"
Posted: Fri Aug 19, 2016 7:22 am
I've been running the Adafruit Feather Huzzah in my project for about 6 months now. I have a power management circuit that powers the ESP8266 at a given interval. On a daily average, EEPROM is being read from 24 times and written to 12 times. I also read 2 files on every wakeup using SPIFFS 12 times a day for each file. Am I killing the flash? I have 10 Huzzahs doing this and one just crapped out on me. I'm hoping it's just this one but I'm a concerned.
I try to program it now using esptool.py and I get this message:
I feel like I've killed it. Any chance of reviving?
