ESP8266 bricked (do not fonctionne)

Hello,

I bought 2 AZDelivery NodeMCU Amica Module V2 ESP8266 ESP-12F board on amazon.

I had only used one of the two cards. Today I tried to make the second work but it does not work. In all cases, the programming goes up to 100%. In ESPHome the next step is normally Log but it blocks at this step. In Arduino IDE I tested with blinking LED but it doesn't work. The 12F Wifi module is very hot on the other hand.


Do you have a procedure to advise me to do a hard reset or factory reset? If not, I would be grateful if you would replace the defective device.

Best regards,

Pika28

it is not possible to brick an esp8266. the bootloader is in ROM.
(bricked means blocked by not working application without a way to recover)

so how to explain the fact that the card accepts flash from arduino ide or esphome flasher. after reboot, nothing works. I have several esp8266 nodemcu which runs without problem (temperature humidity measurement of ultrasonic aRGB capacity etc.)
