ESP32 no WIFI shows up #856

Hello, i am using an ESP 32 Development Board, i can flash the firmware, however if it finishes, after i restart it it doesnt show up in my WIFI Network and i cant seem to find it.

I have the same issue, whether I flash at 0x0 or 0x1000. If you check the serial log (easy way is with ESPHome web flasher), it'll either hang or be in a boot loop with various messages. This means it's not starting up fully, which is why the Wi-Fi isn't showing.

@CyberHummel, it won't connect automatically to your wifi network. There's a wifi setup process that you'll need to go through first (see this section in the README).

@daverof, you definitely need to flash the firmware image at 0x1000 for ESP32. If you're seeing issues and this is your first time flashing the project on your ESP32, you probably need to set up the partition table (I'm using a non-default flash layout to fit the web assets in flash). The easiest way to do that is with platformio: platformio run -e esp32 --target upload. Try clearing flash entirely and re-flashing with platformio if you're still running into issues.

README should be updated to reflect this. I meant to do that but got distracted.

Thank you! It worked after a full erase with esptool and the flash itself by platformio rather than esptool.

CyberHummel commented 2 days ago

How did you flash it with PlatformIO? Because if i clear the flash and try to flash it via Esptool it doesnt work also with the 0x1000

Nevermind, got it to work with PlatformIO! After installing Python XD (Forgot i have a new PC)
