I am using ESP8266MOD with Arduino Core. I am using Arduino IDE to program my ESP8266 12F. After programming my ESP i am powering down and powering up again making sure that GPIO 0 is not pulled down, but ESP does not start. I am connecting ESP to my Serial monitor which shows nothing. Next i am putting ESP in programming mode and resetting the ESP with the help of reset key, which resets my ESP and shows the messages that i have written in void setup() function. I am selecting Generic ESP 8266 Module board in Arduino IDE connected to my specific comport. The same code is working smoothly on other esps.

Any idea ?

Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.
