Re: [SOLVED]Flashing chip in 32MBit(1024K+1024K) mode

Strange,

my SDK has no 1024+1024 mode!

or we are talking about 512+512?
eagle.app.v6.new.1024.app1+2.ld ?

Hi,

If you did not initialize (burn blank.bin), it will be random value. So it maybe can work,maybe not. It is not safe.

So please always download blank.bin for initialization.

Oh, I've flashed it only to 0xFE000. After flashing it to 0x3FE000 as well it started working, thanks!

I wonder, how it worked fine before in 16M(1024+1024) and 32M(512+512) modes without flashing blank.bin?

Hi,

Have you downloaded blank.bin to 0xFE000 and 0x3FE000 for initialization ?

[SOLVED]Flashing chip in 32MBit(1024K+1024K) mode

2015-12-04T22:03:56+08:00

Hello.

I've compiled a firmware with SPI_MODE_MAP=6, and it works fine after flashing it at 0x01000 address in 32Mbit flashing mode, but loader (1.4b1) shows it is 32Mbit(512K+512K) mode (I've also tried 16Mbit(1024K+1024K), and the firmware works fine as well).

Now I'm trying to flash it in 32Mbit-C1 mode, and after flashing loader shows it correctly as 32Mbit(1024K+1024K), but it never gets to user code. It prints:

Code:

 ets Jan  8 2013,rst cause:2, boot mode:(3,6)

load 0x40100000, len 1396, room 16 
tail 4
chksum 0x89
load 0x3ffe8000, len 776, room 4 
tail 4
chksum 0xe8
load 0x3ffe8308, len 540, room 4 
tail 8
chksum 0xc0
csum 0xc0

2nd boot version : 1.4(b1)
  SPI Speed      : 80MHz
  SPI Mode       : QIO
  SPI Flash Size & Map: 32Mbit(1024KB+1024KB)
jump to run user1 @ 1000

and never gets any further.
I've tried to download firmware both with Firmware Download Tools on Windows and esptool on Linux, and outcome is the same, so I believe it must be some bootloader issue.
Or am I doing something wrong specific to this mode?

Thanks,
Alex.
