Did anyone get the examples flashed? I thought that I got it right, but this is being played back in a loop for the AT example.
(Official VM + SDK)





Did I mix up the esptool.py arguments? I cannot get any useful state working on the chip.

Has anyone had success building and uploading a firmware from the 0.9.2 SDK? Building was simple enough following the instructions that come with the VirtualBox VM, but I'm a bit reluctant to brick my first unit...

I currently have

is there a way I can restore this? I coulnd't find out how to dump the flash with esptool.py.

You can't brick the modules/chip. The core stuff is in the internal ROM. If you flash something that doesn't work, you can always reflash it.

You can find a working good firmware as binaries on tinhead's OneDrive here: https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=C4DDF72E6EEA3826&id=C4DDF72E6EEA3826!872

Excellent, thank you! Now I just need to figure out why esptool.py doesn't want to talk to my module ("Invalid head of packet").
