Describe the bug platform = espressif8266@1.5.0 and WifiManager (by pressing button 4 times on Sonoff S20 or S26) give me always an error:

Expected behavior be able to use WifiManager with Arduino version 2.3.0 (stable WiFi)

Screenshots

Additional context I think it is an old bug, probably in Esp8266 core for Arduino version 2.3.0 the WifiManager works correctly in the Esp8266 core for Arduino version 2.4.2, but unfortunately there are known problems with WiFi stability on any other versions of the Esp8266 core for Arduino (any other versions then the 2.3.0)

Is ti possible to have booth WifiManager and Esp8266 core for Arduino version 2.3.0?

Thanks in advance Andrzej

andrethomas commented 5 years ago

Binaries are built for both 2.3.0 and 2.4.2 and available for OTA.

The default ones at http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/release/ are 2.4.2 but you can download the 2.3.0 core based binaries for OTA from http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/release/020300/ - These are kept for posterity purposes only as we envisage to move entirely to 2.4.2 and eventually 2.5.0 if it proves to remain stable as it is now.

Jason2866 commented 5 years ago

Tested. Wifimanager works with core 2.3.0. You can dl precompiled version with core 2.3.0 from here http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/release/020300/

araczkowski commented 5 years ago

Thanks, let me check this... I will be back with feedback

araczkowski commented 5 years ago

unfortunately no luck, what I did:

downloaded precompiled version with core 2.3.0 from here http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/release/020300/sonoff-PL.bin

@Jason2866 did you really tested this ?

Try sonoff.bin not localized. Yes i tried and it works. Your link is to an old article....

ok checking...

of course I have the same on each S20 and S26 EU and when I change the Esp8266 core for Arduino to version 2.4.2 the WifiManager works fine so it is not hardware issue

@Jason2866 are you checking this on S20/S26? Andy other ideas ?

Jason2866 commented 5 years ago

No checked it on a wemos mini with connected button... Yes send wifi credentials via backlog command over serial

araczkowski commented 5 years ago

I mean other ideas to have WifiManager on Esp8266 core for Arduino version 2.3.0 ?

Jason2866 commented 5 years ago

No because i cant reproduce your issue. Why not give 2.4.2 a try? We have no feedback from Tasmota users with problems. It frees ram and software serial is working better.

araczkowski commented 5 years ago

I did try it some times ago and it was disaster - I rollback to 2.3.0 and I did it today again, I have 30 devices in my office and about 30 in my house. (sockets, touches, basics, th with sensors, duals...) First I thought that all is going well but about 1h hour after update I don't have connection with 30% of the devices and I'm trying to find a way to roll back again to 2.3.0 Other devices are appearing and disappearing periodically in my system... And I have WiFI mesh in both locations are the devices has good WiFI connection.

When you are working on one device it can looks OK but in the real home automation system it is not.

We have no feedback from Tasmota users with problems.

I don't think it is full true, I'm not the first time here and I saw a lot of feedback about WiFi stability problems on core above 2.3.0 but you are closing everything so fast without solution...

But let's go back to the point . I will be really happy to use 2.3.0 with WifiManager I will be glad for any help to achieve this.

Thanks

Jason2866 commented 5 years ago

I have around 60 devices about half a year rock solid running with 2.4.2 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 was bad... So i know what i am recommend. But i dont use Mesh. My AP are all wired via switched managed network and controlled via a Hardware Wlan controller

andrethomas commented 5 years ago

The wifi stability issues you are referring to was related to bad thermal design on the sonoff basic and was mitigated by new process management from Tasmota 6.3.10 and higher.

There really is no reason not to run on 2.4.2 core, or 2.5.0 for that matter at this point.

I have 63 (and building device 64 at the moment) which all run 6.4.0+ on core 2.4.2 without problems.

araczkowski commented 5 years ago

It's not that I didn't try... but anyway, do you have any idea how to solve the WifiManager problem on 2.3.0?

andrethomas commented 5 years ago

I'm not sure what you mean, it works perfectly.

On boot I get this on the serial console

00:00:00 Project sonoff Sonoff (Topic sonoff, Fallback DVES_10373D, GroupTopic sonoffs) Version 6.4.0(release-sonoff)-2_3_0

00:00:00 HTP: Web server active on sonoff-5949 with IP address 192.168.4.1

Then, on my phone I scan for wifi and see the sonoff-xxx AP

After connecting to it I am presented with the captive portal to enter wifi credentials

After entering details and click save the following is produced on serial log

This test was done on a Sonoff Basic.

So sad to say, but the problem is on your side and is not a firmware issue.

andrethomas2 commented 5 years ago

Closing this issue as it has been answered and does not appear to be a firmware problem, but a user configuration/setup problem.
