ESP32 provision through QR code is not working

[nirmeshru]

Hi,
I have tried the switch example on ESP-32 few days back and it was working perfectly. now again I am trying the same switch example but now wifi provisioning through QR code is not working.

I already tried to reset the wifi and reset the board but still, the issue is not resolved.
i am using app version -2.2.4 and latest idf code.

I see that your esp idf version is v4.2.1 for which we have indeed faced BLE related issues. Can you check and disable this config option if you see it as enabled?

idf.py menuconfig -> Component config -> Bluetooth -> NimBLE Options -> Enable Host Flow control (disable this)

[nirmeshru]

I tried the above steps you provide on IDF v4.2.1 and now I am able to connect with wifi using QR code and also using BLE provisioning.
Thanks for resolving this bug on IDF 4.2.1.

[nirmeshru]

I tried the above step as you provide and it is working fine. now I am able to connect to wifi through wifi and ble provisioning.

I tried this on switch example:
I load the code into the ESP32 device after power off-on, the status of the gpio is not retained and always it is low.
can you please point to any doc related to this?

[ESP_Piyush]

By default, the power parameter only has read and write properties as you can see here. If you want the state to persist, create your own power parameter and add the PROP_FLAG_PERSIST property as well.
