Updating to 3.5.0 doesn't work

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi,

I'm trying to update my 256x64 ZeDMD to 3.5.0 release without successful. The process looks like is correct using the ZeDMD update tool or even via command line with the esp32tool, but when the process finished the ESP32 appears as a COM3 device but not a ZeDMD device (and the leds blinks constantly, doesn't matter if disconnect and connect again the ESP32 or reset it). If I apply a rollup and back to 3.4.1 release, everything works correctly.

I've tried even with wifi or 128x32 versions

Thanks for reporting that.

It seems that yous could flash 3.5.0 without any issues via platformio (that's what we use).
But it doesn't work with esptool. The problem exists since I updated the espressif framework to 2014.01.01.

Until I found the reason for this, you could use this alternative build using the older espressif version:

I found the issue with the image build and the new espressif version. The assets of the v3.5.0 release have been replaced by new zip files which should work now.
