SONOFF flashing no wifi

Post by DosN »

Does someone has a working SONOFF basic in Domoticz, ?

I try to flash it , with different tools and a lot of different bin file. I think i succeed in flashing it, the software did reply FLASH COMPLETE. But i did not get a wifi signal(esp_0) after flashing.

i seached over the internet, and it looked like there is something changed in the new SONOFF types.
Could some one help ?

If you program these newer baby devices using the standalone flasher, the Sonoff will appear to flash OK but when you power it up there will be no ESP_0 wifi network. The solution to this is to make sure that the flash mode is 'DOUT' which cannot be set from the standalone flashing program. A solution I used was to deploy the ArduinoIDE where there is an option to select flash-mode. I haven't used it myself, but apparently "esptool.py write_flash -fm dout" will also work.
