Flash encryption

Postby zavovi » Sun Oct 18, 2020 8:58 pm

Hi all,
please help. I encrypted the flash on my ESP32 device and now I cannot write anything new.
I have five devices and I was learning with flash encryption. THe first one is not really good (the other are ok).

The first one summary:

Code: Select all

I flashed it with my binary FW and it is working. It have OTA, but it is not working too on this device. I know my secure keys. Is it any solution for reflash it and fix my OTA?

If I want to flash it again with encrypted binary like this:

Code: Select all

# ./../esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/espsecure.py encrypt_flash_data --keyfile tcs_boot_secure_key.bin --address 0x20000 -o build_release/tcs_controller_release-enc.bin build_release/tcs_controller_release.bin
# ../esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py --port COM39 -b 2000000 write_flash 0x20000 build_release/tcs_controller_release-enc.bin
It seems that it is OK and it is flashing, but I cannot see the new FW in my device - still is OLD FW there.

Thank you very much.

If you have multiple app partitions you may not be flashing to the active partition so you could try erasing the otadata. Also you might be using the wrong key to encrypt.

Many Thanks! There was old OTA image and when I changed main APP image, it wasn't booted. I erased both OTA partitions and now I can use main APP from main partition.

Thank you very much!
