My Wipy 1 flash corrupted

[pchirouze]

Hi,
My Wifi 1 is now corrupted.
I can connect via telnet to wipy but I have not the Micropython prompt.
Also I can connect in FTP(Filezilla).
But all my files are out, I can see /flash directory, but I can't read or write files in it.
Is there a way to restore system ?
It's my 2nd Wipy 1 bricked and in two cases I don't now the reasons of this.
The small software in memory ran correctly.

Thanks for help

Hi,

Have you tried a factory reset? https://docs.pycom.io/wipy/wipy/tutorial/reset.html

Hi,
I can't make factory reset file system because I don't have micropython prompt and so enter python code !!

I remark also than after reset the hearth-bit stay red lighting and not flashing every 4 sec.

Please look here for safe boot modes: http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/wipy/wipy/general.html#boot-modes-and-safe-boot

@robert-hh Thanks

That the first and alone thing I had made without results.

Good Day,

I have exactly the same issue as pchirouze.

I tried to upgrade the WiPy firmware as on the /gettingstarted instructions. Unfortunately, this made the WiPy unusable. When I start up the device, the red heartbeat light just stays on. Even if I do a factory reset (3.3V to Pin28) the heartbeat light flashes for 3 seconds, then faster for another 3 seconds, then even faster for another 1.5 seconds. Then the static red heartbeat light goes on again. Ive searched forums and asked around. My Dealer said I should contact you. Please can you help me. I was going to prototype a new alarm system (specifically for South African Homes) using this device, but with its failure I had to switch over to Raspberry Pi.
