AP+UPDATE often bricks module, my advice is: do not use it.

- Wed Feb 04, 2015 9:49 pm #9014 That's a very long story....

Because Espressif AT was open source before..

So many developer developed AT software based on Espressif Official AT and set a different configuration ..

But they didn't change the function "AT+CIUPDATE" , so when you upgrade , you upgrade back to Espressif official AT ... which baudrate is 115200 and AT commands end with CR LF ...

Because of configuration differences ( baudrate changed , maybe ends also changed )... user may be confused ...

Always recommended you to use Espressif official AT http://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=154
