ESP32-cam flashing not working #175
Comments
Could you enable tracing and share the tracing output from the |
Hello @brianignacio5 . Here is output
|
I've noticed that in your output when using the Arduino IDE you flash multiple images while on esptool-js live you only flash the app image. Could you try using all 3 bin files in esptool-js with trace and see if it works ? I've tested both cases (only app bin file and 3 bin files) locally but I can't reproduce the issue with esp32 wrover-kit. I don't have this board since it is a 3rd party vendor and need time to get it. Could you also test using esptool.py with --trace (or in Arduino IDE enable tracing similar as the last you shared) ? Since I can't reproduce the issue locally and I need to compare trace output in order to find the issue. |
You could also generate a single bin file including the bootloader etc. using esptool.py and then try to flash that single file using the web flasher. By reading from a successfully flashed unit you also make sure the correct sketch partition is selected, which may have been toggled after an OTA update. |
I understand @TD-er the issue is that I can't reproduce it myself locally. Either the issue is target dependent or something else I am missing which is also why I need esptool.py --trace to compare. It does seem that esptool.py is updating flashing arguments like flash size and other stuff which esptool-js doesn't do just yet but if I try with the supplied binaries I can't reproduce the issue using esp32-wrover kit. |

Expected behavior
Successfully uploaded FW to the board Ai Thinker ESP32-cam with MB board. GND/R revision.

Actual behavior (suspected bug)
Flashing FW from WEB interface https://espressif.github.io/esptool-js/ to board Ai Thinker ESP32-cam with MB board, GND/R revision don't works. FW is generate from arduino IDE. Flashing FW from Arduino IDE or oficial windows application ESP flash download tool working fine. But flashing FW from WEB app don't work.
Here is log from Arduino IDE
