Ran into this MemData error: #637 and, after adding --no-stub, am now getting this FlashDeflData error:

I've experimented with flash mode, no-reset, and baud rates, running out of ideas.

Thanks!

Hi! Which espflash version are you using? Have you tried using esptool or espflash@2.1?

@robert-chiniquy

I've been using espflash@3.1.1, I'll see if I can try 2.1.

2.1 looks the same except FlashDeflData is FlashDeflateData.

With esptool.py 4.7.0, I can't find a way to disable use of a stub, so this may not be helpful, but:

With esptool.py 4.7.0, I can't find a way to disable use of a stub, so this may not be helpful, but:

There is also a --no-stub flag: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esptool/en/latest/esp32/esptool/flasher-stub.html#disabling-the-stub-loader

Ah thank you, I don't know how I missed that.

I'm still checking my work, maybe my offsets are wrong? With lower baud rates I just get a timeout. The cable is known good, I can flash all my other boards with it. But these are the errors I'm currently encountering with esptool:

I'm still checking my work, maybe my offsets are wrong?

Try using the following offsets https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esptool/en/latest/esp32s3/esptool/flashing-firmware.html?highlight=0x8000#id1 (bootloader at 0x0, partition table a 0x8000 and app at 0x10000)

Do you have any other devkit to try? The fact that both esptool and espflash fail makes me think it might be a hw thing.

I have many dev kits ;) but not of this exact one.

I had kind of thought that because it came flashed with the demo firmware, that that proved that with the correct parameters / method, this specific board could be flashed.

Hi I have a same problem

I think this is a pretty cool board, so I could get another one to try to verify if it is a hw issue with the original. LMK if that would help.

@robert-chiniquy But I used to use this board with other system (Ubuntu), Now I am trying to develop on MacOS.

Thank you. I was able to install those drivers and it did fix my issue. A new serial device was visible.

Definitely wish the installers weren't at an http:// link.

But thank you everybody for the help! I'm sorry I didn't figure this one out on my own!
