Can't flash ESP32_WROVER-B. "flash_id" reports "Flash size unknown".
Posted: Thu Jul 18, 2019 11:45 am
Hi,
We bought ESP32-WROVER-B module from Mouser. Mouser #: 356-ESP32-WROB(16MB).
We can't get the module flashed.
Flashing gets stucked to 6%. See below.
esptool.py can't recognize the flash memory. See below.
Does this verify the module is broken? Or what can be the issue?
