ESP32-S3: Invalid head of packet (0x1B) Arduino IDE 2.0.3

Postby Anresume » Sat Feb 11, 2023 2:41 pm

Hi, I'm trying to get ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 working with Arudino IDE 2.0.3. Every time with the same error message. Pressing or holding the boot button does not help.

Does anyone have a solution? Thanks!

Output:

Global variables use 13152 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 314528 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

I guess you either gave up or found the solution elsewhere. But, in case someone else comes here looking for the solution, this may be it:
You need to put it in ROM bootloader mode. If you have DFU/boot and reset buttons, hold boot. While holding boot, press and release reset. Then release boot.
