OTA firmware update in second stage bootloader with custom bootloader

Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2024 6:46 am

Hi there,
I would like to write custom bootloader code to perform an OTA firmware upgrade over wifi in the second bootloader step. My code to initialize wifi during the bootloader stage was unsuccessful due to several issues. The cause for my error was found
here: https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?t=27605 .

So, at the second stage bootloader, how can I upgrade the firmware over the air using wifi?
Could someone help explain the proper procedure to me?

You cannot do that in the 2nd bootloader: you don't have access to e.g. FreeRTOS and the 2nd stage bootloader cannot be large enough to contain the entire WiFi/TCP-IP stack. Rather, you should boot into some application (e.g. on the factory partition) to do WiFi-related stuff.
