I just started to use the ESP8266 chips but I encountered the following problem:
I installed the "Unofficial Development Kit for Espressif ESP8266" and I can succesfully build the examples.
So I uploaded the blinky example first on my Wemos D1 mini board and the LED started to blink..so far everything went well, then I changed the delay value, build the project and uploaded it again but the LED blinked the same..nothing changed.
I modified the example to keep the LED on, again I uploaded the changes but nothing happened, the LED kept blinking. I also tried other examples with the same behaviour.
I did checked to see if I modify any example if the generated bin files changed and they did, but after uploading them nothing happened
So I did the same thing with a NodeMCU V2 board and unfortunatelly the behaviour was the same.
I suspect that something is corrupted while uploading the bin files but I don't undestand why.
There is a similar post (solved) viewtopic.php?f=32&t=4339&start=76 here it seems that the USB -TTL adapter was the problem but since I tried this on two different new boards I assume that this is not the problem.
Currently I got stuck and I don't know what to try next.
I'll appreciate any advice
Best regards,
Tudor
