Today I started with my ESP8266 again and put a new firmware on that thing. The schematic https://www.esp8266.com/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=schematic_esp-12e.png of my ESP-12E shows a quad SPI flash. So I can use all modes (and tried it). So -fm dout always works on every module. SPI Flash Modes:...

If you compile the firmware with no esp-idf output, the uart should be completely silent from the micropython side. The CP2102 should not cause any trouble (i think, it might if you try to send stuff from the PC). Well, I have to write my code, so I'm not able to shut down esp-idf output, i.e. REPL...

The repl uart can be removed from the repl and used independently. For this alone, no micropython fork would be required) I read about it, but never tried it. Do you have a working example? Isn't CP2102 disturbing the communication, since I can't set it to suspend mode? Schematics: https://cdn.hack...

Can you explain the differences between this fork and the main micropython? The uart on the esp8266 is available too in main micropython? If I remember right, ESP8266 has got 1,5 hard UARTs. One UART is used for the REPL. The 2nd (just TX) is usually used for debugging. Micropython supports the har...

Most people here will be using mainline MicroPython; what was difficult about it? Perhaps we can help if you explain the issues you were seeing... I can't remember anymore. I remember, that I was just one time successful compiling the firmware for my ESP8266. I was using https://github.com/dmascord...

kevinscorpionfox stated here https://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=10617 , that he got the toolchain running with ESP8266_RTOS_SDK. Since ESP8266_NONOS_SDK is not supported anymore, just bugfixes, i would like to use ESP8266_RTOS_SDK. I just want to tell you guys, I just try the toolcha...

I just want to tell you guys, I just try the toolchain from esp-open-sdk, version=4.8.x , now it's working for me Hi kevinscorpionfox, I would like to use ESP8266_RTOS_SDK. Can you be more specific what you have done exactly. You mentioned some problems I'm totally confused now. SOS. Thanks, hcet14

Yes, makes sense. I remember having a hard time with that, when I started the first time.

Hi, I would like to start with my ESP8266 after half a year not touching it. But I do remember having a hard time to compile the firmware. Docker didn't work at all. https://github.com/pfalcon/esp-open-sdk was very hard. My question now is, if someone here tried the pfalcon fork https://github.com/m...

Hi hcet14, Apologies for not seeing your Issue raised on github! I am interested in maintaining my fork, but have been busy with other projects. Let me look into your issue and see whether I can work out what is happening, might have to find one of the MH-Z19 sensors somewhere to try it. Cheers, Da...
