[ Question ] ESP32 ### unhandled:

[AhdaAI]

[x] I have read the Troubleshooting section of the ReadMe

What type of issues is this?

[ ] Request to support a new module

[ ] Bug or problem compiling the library [ ] Bug or issue with library functionality (ie, sending data over TCP/IP) [x] Question or request for help

What are you working with?

Hello, i'm trying to connect SIM7600G with ESP32 but i don't understand the output and how to set up the debug mode. I have tried the solution provided in this comment but i still not understand the output and where to find the documentation about the expected output.

Modem: SIM7600G Main processor board: DOIT ESP32 DevKit v1 TinyGSM version: 0.11.7 Code:

Scenario, steps to reproduce

Expected result

Actual result

Debug and AT command log

Hey @RazorHex, I have a similar issue. Are you willing to paste your code so I can try and see if I get the same output?

I also can't connect to the GSM Module and send AT commands.

I am using an ESP32 (ESP32 S3 DevKit-1) and SIMCom7600G.

Hey @live-alchemy. This is my current code, it work without the sim card and able to capture gnss output.

Hm ok, I'm afraid I'm not totally clear which problem you're facing or what you want to accomplish. Apologies.

[AhdaAI]

Yeah same here, i think its related to the IMEI

[AapoTahkola]

I promptly reflashed global firmware to make SIM900A SIM900. I had garbage on the io line until I changed circuit so that TX from esp32 goes to 5V RX on SIM900A. It works fine I can do firmware update on GPRS line to esp32.
