If it is AT firmware, beware that every commands requires both CR+LF, not only CR.

As I said its only rx problem. I am flashing firmware compiled by arduino. Works for ESP-01 (1k/1.8k voltage divider) but not for ESP-12E (10k/22k divider).
Another question: What if RX pin input goes above Vcc. For me, Vcc = 3.2v, Rx input High = 3.4v.

VCC+0.3V should not pose a problem (datasheet only specifies 3.6V max. without mentioning VCC).
If on doubt, you can use a mosfet as level shifter or clamp the input voltage with a zener diode.

I checked input impedance (using multimeter, not actual i guess). It is 450E. What? Just 450? Isn't it supposed to be 1M or something for a MOSFET?
