Add support for esp32s3 boards
Closed this issue · 16 comments
Can you add support for esp32s3 boards this is the command used in platformio for flashing
esptool.py --chip esp32s3 --port "COM15" --baud 921600 --before default_reset --after hard_reset write_flash -z --flash_mode dio --flash_freq 80m --flash_size 4MB 0x0000 bootloader.bin 0x8000 partitions.bin 0xe000 boot_app0.bin 0x10000 firmware.bin
Sure thing.
I just stubbed out the device family in the admin. If you already have firmware you know works, I would appreciate it if you could add it (selecting this stubbed out device family). Flashing won’t work as I don’t yet have the boatloaders, but it will help me test here later today.
Sure, I have ported gravitymon to that board but I have more testing to do. I have created a firmware in brewflasher for the S3. The binaries are from the dev branch here; https://github.com/mp-se/gravitymon/tree/dev/bin.
Let me know if you want me to do a test locally
Interestingly enough, I actually had picked up an ESP32-S3 a few months back in anticipation of one day seeing if I could use it for something. Apparently that "something" is getting BrewFlasher support working!
Thanks for posting that firmware - everything seems to work on my end. I'll get a release crafted here shortly!
Great, will do a test later on then.
Quick update -- I'm still working on getting a release out. It seems like every time I try to release BrewFlasher, something breaks. This time it's MacOS universal binary support. :)
I'm hoping to have everything back working here later today.
Just tested it but it does not work for me. The flashing works but the firmware does not start...

The address of the bootloader is differnt compared to what platformio is using.
1 sec.
I just updated the release. Try downloading it now and let me know if it works.
I will give it a try later and let you know
it looks like its the booloader.bin is the culprit. When replacing the downloaded file with this from the platformio build it worked.
Weird -- I built that manually from the headers in the Arduino project. Regardless, I added your bootloader to the repo, and got it set as the bootloader for the ESP32-S3. If you restart BrewFlasher (no need to redownload) it should start using that.
Can confirm that it now works, great work!
Perfect! Thank you for the help in getting this rolled out. :)
