Trouble uploading sketch after the first sketch
Posted: Sun Nov 15, 2020 9:32 amHi Everyone,
I got two Wemos D1 Mini's in the mail yesterday. Theyre the model with the ESP-12 chips on it. I uploaded a blink sketch to it just fine, soldered pinheaders on it to start with my project and that is where I got stuck. I am not able to upload a sketch after the first time anymore.
This is the error that I get
Ofcourse I googled around and found a whole lot of information and solutions. Downloading earlier versions of the esp8266 board manager, connecting D3 to GND, etc. But none of it seemed to work. I tried my other Wemos that I got and it went exactly the same. Looks like it will not go into flash mode?
I am not all to sure how any of this works and why this is happening.
Can anyone guide me on why this is happening and how actually upload a new sketch to my device. Thanks alot!
