Firmware does not run on all ESP32 modules
LoekeB opened this issue · comments
Due to big problems with AliExpress, I bought the ESP 32 module at a shop in The Netherlands.
But after flashing the unit, it appears not to work. Apparently I bought a single core ESP32, while the firmware requires a multi-core. As such, the chip keeps rebooting.
It is a pity that the Espressif site is not very clear which ESP32 chip contains how many cores :-(
Questions:
- Is there an option to run this firmware on a single core?
- Can you improve the documentation to explain more explicitly which ESP32 chips / modules are supported.
Picture of module and error report from the rebooting chip are attached.

You can create your own YAML file and adapt the esp32 component to your microcontroller.

That is difficult to determine since there are many variants on the market, the current firmware version for the ES32 is aimed at all boards that work with the Arduino esp32dev package.
The Banggood and Aliexpress links refer to a board with the ESP32-WROOM-32 chip, a widely used board and also available in the Netherlands such as from TinyTronics.
