HI All,
I have an issue fashing a generic ESP8265 module, When I put it in boot loader mode, I have an erratic behaviour. I am usind an USB to UART 3V3 FTDI cable ( FT232R ).
esptool.py works fine with read_mac and chip_id commands, but fails with flash_id and firmware flashing.
and
This is the first time I work with a generic module, my Huzzah models work fine so I wonder if there is any kind of "initial flashing" process that would be needed for modules that were never flashed ?
Could it be related with the fact that ESP8285 embeds its 1 Mbyte SPI flash memory ?
Thanks
