Module ESP32-8048S070C

[BeanieBots]

Tried to do OTA update from 1.51.8 to 1.52.1 OTA.
Got almost there but failed near the end.
Repeated several times, same result.
Tried to recover with online installer. Installs but then instantly tries to do an OTA update which then fails as before.
Cannot get out of this loop. Please advise.

Flash also the little boot 0 file

[BeanieBots]

Close but still not working.
No longer keeps trying to do OTA but now gives error "edit_area_full.js.gz is missing!" and resets.

[cicciocb]

Restart the web browser and, if don"t work reflash the module completly with another version (all the partitions)

[BeanieBots]

Restarted browser. A little more response, but kept resetting.
Did FULL re-flash.
Looked promising but tried to run your demo1.bas and get "Out of memory line 20".
Flash Free: 10,338,304
RAM Free: 216,568

No other programs will run either.
Screen lights up, but then nothing.
Can open files and read them but nothing when trying to run.
pwm.out 7,value in immediate does not change brightness.
Have power cycled several times, same result.
Edit:Will try going right back to 1.51.8

EDIT2: Going back to 1.51.8 now works as before. Phew!

I think you flashed the wrong version ... yours is with OPI psram

[BeanieBots]

Only CAN_LFS options available!
Incl. v1.51.8

[cicciocb]

there are 2 versions for the ESP32-S3, depending on the PSRAM type (opi or qspi)

Yes, I think that was the original mistake. (for the 1st OTA attempt)
Having done that to start with, the online flasher then kept presenting the wrong firmware list.
Just tried again and I now get the correct list.

Thanks for your help.
Back up and running with the latest 1.52.1 OPI
Nothing in the last two change logs. Anything to look out for?
