TLSR8258 not responding after upgrade (Red Led PD4 not working)

[SangaranSiva]

Hello,

I try to use the sensor_demo example to use my devices to connect to Zigbee2MQTT. I upgrade the firmware of TLSR8258 following the instructions (DIP switch and U2T) on sensor_demo, I upload the sensor_demo code and there was no error when flashing but the red led (PD4) is not working anymore.

I don't know if it's normal or not. Is there something I have to do ?

[ejri]

Had the same issue. No red light after TLSR8258 firmware update.

Though the sensor_demo doesn't seem to work for me...

[swkim01]

@SangaranSiva @ejri How did you build and upload the firmware from the sensor_demo.ino? Use arduino ide with installing core and esp32-c3 settings as this link in order to build and upload the firmware.

[SangaranSiva]

@swkim01 I upgraded the firmware of TLSR8258 to hciDevice_ZR_8258_SDK_eb644f1_MD5_3e7c395bacca28475952808a79ff2ec1.bin using USBCOMFlashTx.html found in the same link.

Ok I will try, thanks.

[ejri]

@swkim01 Yeah, followed the same link you posted.

factory_test.ino works as expected, http request over wifi. Though for anything related to zigbee, it doesn't seem to work.

zigbee2mqtt returns a LittleFS error, saying that the board is a esp32-c3 chip, despite choosing the esp32-c3 board. https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-ZigBee/issues/6

light_demo.ino doesn't get recognized by sonoff 3.0 usb https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-ZigBee/issues/7

@ejri @SangaranSiva

Please follow this document strictly to burn new firmware for tlsr8258.

Make sure that the Red Led PD4 is working properly, and then perform other operations.

[ejri]

to clarify, I followed the document very closely.

This is a screenshot that the firmware file has been successfully uploaded, as in the document.

[lbuque]

This flasher has no feedback, it is only responsible for sending, no matter whether the chip is receiving normally or not.

[lbuque]

Before burning tlsr8258, you need to burn factory_test.

factory_test is used to power on the tlsr8258

[SangaranSiva]

I burn factory_test then I flash the firmware with a new board, but i got the same result.

I also try as mention here using python, but the led is still off. It looks like the tlsr8258 is bricked.

Do you have a win computer? You can try to use a win computer to burn the firmware!

At present, we have not received feedback from other customers that tlsr8258 cannot be burned!

Hope to get your help! Find out if it is a product defect! ! !

Hi, I try using a win computer, but the led is still off.

You use a multimeter to measure the two places marked in Chinese in the picture below.

Is the voltage 3.3V

[SangaranSiva]

Yes it's 3.3V.

[lbuque]

Is the status of the dip switch the same as the picture below?

[SangaranSiva]

Yes it's the same.

[lbuque]

Please contact our customer service for compensation!

[ejri]

It’s the same for me for one of the boards.

I have 3 boards in total. I’ll try it on all the other two and let you know.

[ejri]

@liangyingy I have tried the three boards and they have the same issue. I will contact customer service and share with them the video of uploading the firmware and testing it, exactly as mentioned in https://zbhci.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-guide/burning.html

[lbuque]

@ejri I don't quite believe that all three boards will have the same problem.

[ejri]

@liangyingy Sent the video to customer service, please check it. (it's a youtube video showing the step by step, following the tutorial). Please send me your email, I can forward it to you too.

I'm having the same issue. Tried to flash several images but they all result in "Failed to initialize LittleFS". This is what I get:

@pcopa Please execute the following command in the terminal of platformio:

pio run -e ttgo-t-oi-plus -t upload
pio run -e ttgo-t-oi-plus -t uploadfs

[shojkeee]

The LED does not work because the instructions for the sensor_demo and light_demo firmware present the same firmware for TLSR8258. I think that's the problem. Please people who are running this git, edit the instructions. It seems to me that the wrong firmware has been added for sensor_demo

[shojkeee]

but no. as it turned out, this is not the problem. liligo.light is working. but sensor_demo is not. As soon as sensor_demo.ino is poured into the esp32-c3, the diodes stop burning from the TLSR microcontroller. The problem is clearly sensor_demo.ino

[shojkeee]

I found what the problem is. The sensor_demo program is not going correctly because of the platform.ini file. Change platform.ini to the values that I attach below in the sensor_demo folder

[platformio] src_dir = . lib_dir = ../..

[env:ttgo-t-oi-plus] platform = espressif32 board = ttgo-t-oi-plus framework = arduino board_build.mcu = esp32c3 board_build.f_cpu = 160000000L upload_speed = 921600 monitor_speed = 115200 lib_deps = mathertel/OneButton@^2.0.3 adafruit/DHT sensor library@^1.4.4 adafruit/Adafruit Unified Sensor@^1.1.5 build_flags = -D CORE_DEBUG_LEVEL=3

@shojkeee The following code snippet has enabled RT9080: https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-ZigBee/blob/42fd137ad32bba083e7f0f41dcc42219afecbdde/examples/sensor_demo/sensor_demo.ino#L46-L47

Before flashing the firmware with 'TLSR825xComFlasher wf ' you need to delete all regions of flash with 'TLSR825xComFlasher ea '.

[purha]

I have the same issue, after flashing the TRLS chip, the red light doesnt turn on, none of the TLSR825xComFlasher.py commands work. Before using the web ui to flash I tried python version which gave the error:

Reset module (RTS low)...

and after flashing from the ui the device seems to be bricked.

any ideas?
