Re: I can't copy the firmware of ESP-01 module

AFAIK I am reading from 0x000000,

Code: Select all

esptool.py -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 115200 read_flash 0 0x100000 v1.2.0.0_AT_Firmware.bin

Up until recently, all the modules I bought worked fine but the last batch I bought has a different firmware. They report AT Version 0.21.0.0 and they often crash because of a software watchdo...
