- Sat Apr 30, 2016 12:30 pm #46563 Tried that with no luck.

While it seems to be in bootloader mode I can't program via the arduino ide, nor use esptool to connect.

- Sat Apr 30, 2016 1:06 pm #46568 I've taken it out of the original circuit, popped it in the tester, checked the voltages on those pins and tried substituting the weird esp07 for a fresh one and the fresh one works correctly, its definitely not the circuit!

- Sat Apr 30, 2016 1:17 pm #46570 Interestingly, when the esp is in reset gpio goes to 3.3v, when I release reset it goes back down to 2v :/ Going to try and take the shielding off to look inside.
