Brain dead Wemos Lolin32

[Rrobinet]

Hi,

While busy to implement a new library, and after downloading this version to my WeMos Lolin 32 (using Arduino IDE), I had the following issue:

Code: Select all

Rebooting...

Of course I am not able to reload a new sketch, the loader esp 2.1 give me the following error.

Code: Select all

esptool.py v2.1
Connecting........_____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____....._____.....____An error occurred while uploading the sketch

I looks that the boot loader can't be accessed anymore due to the constant processor reboot.
Is it a way to overcome this situation?

Thanks in advance

Robert

Extra info; after attempt to download a sketch; the following message is displayed:

If you have hardware buttons reset and boot, try to enable download mode and then upload sketch from arduino.
Download mode:
- press boot, dont release it
- press and release reset
- release boot

But before you do that, open serial monitor to be sure esp32 is in download more. Then close serial monitor and upload sketch

Thanks chegewara for your help.
In fact the Wemos Lolin has no reset button, so based on your infos I have found, this article:
https://github.com/espressif/esptool/wi ... e-Selection
So I did power my Wemos with GPIO0 strapped to the ground, the after removing the strap I was able to reload a sketch.
