ESP32 Flash Download Tool V3.8.5 didn't send the reset command after the download

Postby chadpham75 » Sat Jan 16, 2021 1:05 am

Hi all,
Could you please give me some pointer? Or make the comment to see if you see this problem and how to get around it?

When I developed my firmware, I used the idf.py script and flash the unit, after the firmware upgrade the script will send out the hard reset command which will help to reset the ESP32.
For example:

Leaving...
Hard resetting via RTS pin...
Done

However, when I tried to use the ESP32 Flash Download Tool V3.8.5, once the download is finished, there is no reset command sending out.
Is there check box somewhere so the downloader tool can send out the reset command?
Thank you so much for your help.

I downloaded V3.9.2 and I'm facing the same issue. It would be helpful if I could avoid phisically turning the power off and then on again after loading the firmware.

I downloaded V3.9.7 and I'm facing the same issue.

I recognized that in the path /configure/esp32XX/multi_download.conf are the config files located. Especially the interesting section [ESPTOOL_PARAM]
after = no_reset
before = default_reset
compress = True
flash_size = keep
no_stub = False
verify = True
flash_freq = keep
flash_mode = keep

I changed the line after = hard_reset, but anyhow the reset event does not take place after the flash. Also after = default_reset has no effect. Do I miss something or how to use?
Unfortunately there is no further description for the config files available...
