Arduino WiFi and Upload, Reset for new code #3

Closed Defragster closed 5 years ago

Defragster commented 5 years ago

Hoping update to Arduino tree from x.2 to x.3 resolves this:

The Play Shield example 'TinyPICO-Play-Shield-Features' shows this well:

With WiFi running a new Upload may take a RESET/repower/2nd upload to get the code uploaded to actually run When running this sketch some alternate presses of button 4 will not show WiFi connect but long lines of '...' with no connect until another Button 4 press.

Only other ESP32 PICO I have seems to exhibit the same behavior. Not as easy to test/observe because the battery is fixed internal and there is no external reset.

Using included example SPIFFS_time.ino { may require Spiffs_test.ino first to format the space }

This seemed like NEW behavior because I barely unboxed the other unit { M5Stick-C } waiting for TinyPICO and ran their clock on Display example and never occurred to me it was not using WiFI Connect to get NTP time.

Just saw this OLD link for ESP32 - not PICO - resolved in esp silicon update. Workaround to add a cap would then cause trouble later - not clear the 'reset' issue is like the one showing here - but it seemed to show timing issue in upload process affecting reset.
