Change to the library files that are listed in the Readme.md -- it will compile. Usually it is the ESP8266 Core version.
Did you try doing the update with the binary file and the web interface?
What binary file did you try? Also, did you solder it with the pins in the diagram?

Thanks for the reply...
Yes I tried the Firmware Update and the ESP8266 just doesnt do anything useful now. No display (well random dots) and no WIFI to connect to and to configure.
I have tried removing all the libraries and re-installing them from the sources detailed and still nothing compiles. I get errors like the following: error: call to 'HTTPClient::begin' declared with attribute error: obsolete API, use ::begin(WiFiClient, url)
I have tried both the normal and Wide BINs, I just have 4 LED matrixes and I did use the pins in the diagram.
Did you enable the 1M SPIFF in the tools menu of Arduino?

Well I dont seem to have a 1M SPIFF option with my arduino board
I'm trying V2.5.2 of the ESP8266 core... and it compiles :-) but doesn't run once uploaded.... I'll do more fiddling...
If you don't see the option then you have the wrong version of ESP8266 Core installed.
Like this:
V3.02 looks like this though!
Cracked it, although the upload didnt go very smoothly in that I had to do it several times to get it to work. It does work now though.
Thanks for all your help...
Glad you got it working
Well, the firmware update feature on one of my Marquee-Scroller's has failed and try as I might, I just cant get the code from git hub to compile without many errors. This I suspect is due to slightly incompatible libraries these days.
So, I figured... Just upload the BIN file. To that end I have been trying the ESP8266Flasher with the githum binary and cant get anything but the Wemos D1 blue LED to flash.
Are there any suggestions as how I can get the latest arduino code to compile ot how to upload the BIN file please?
