nodemcu can't flash or upload a sketch with Arduino IDE
Posted: Sat Aug 15, 2020 8:19 am
Hello,
I have a nodemcu that I used to program it with lualoader or esplorer. Then I stopped programming this board and switched to Arduino boards in Arduino IDE for like couple years.
Now, I took my nodemcu for my trip and left all my other boards at home.
So, first of all I tried to program it with Arduino IDE but I got this error.
Then I got back to lua programming and tried to flash it but also there's a problem.
1. I can't flash it with its internal firmware.
2. When I select and external .bin file to flash it, it starts flashing but there's to progress in the process.
I thought the board is broken or fried but it receives the uart signals and it's recognized in the device manager.
What to do ?
