S3 Mini Flashing Error using Web Flasher
mutasim opened this issue · comments
I'm unable to boot from my S3 Mini when flashing using the web flasher. The logs show the following:
E (301) spi_flash: Detected size(4096k) smaller than the size in the binary image header(8192k). Probe failed.
assert failed: do_core_init startup.c:328 (flash_ret == ESP_OK)

I have tried flashing twice, still no luck. Shall I tried the other flashing method?
You posted the problem:
E (301) spi_flash: Detected size(4096k) smaller than the size in the binary image header(8192k). Probe failed.
The ESP you bought has 4MB of Flash, but 8MB are required.
Ah ok, thanks - any suggestions on a reliable ESP model?
4MB ESP32(-S3) should work fine. This is probably a bug in the way the webflash binary is created. It currently works on 8MB devices but not on 4MB devices. 8MB is not necessary though.
Flashing using the release binaries should work just fine (with esptools).
Will take a look at the webflash creation to fix the underlying issue with 4MB S3 devices.
This seems like a duplicate of #397 by the way.
Note that the release binaries might not work as well.
Bootloader probably needs to be built with flash size set to 4MB.
So this might need new binaries (for both webflash and manual flash) after all
Please flash using the binaries in https://github.com/technyon/nuki_hub/actions/runs/9583173692/artifacts/1617236784
Amazing - that worked. Thanks!! 👍
