Firmware Update Fails

@jmarcelino

thank you for conversation

I figured out

from machine import Pin
p_in = Pin('P23', mode=Pin.IN)
p_in()

0

Can you follow the example @robert-hh posted please, it's more reliable in case the wire is broken because his example sets the pin as PULL_UP.

@szatmari60 P23 is not G23. Actuall you have to connect GPIO0 and GND.

Thanks a lot!
I am an IDIOT!
I mismatched G23 with P23

Is OK!!! '1.6.9.b1'

@szatmari60 To be honest, I 've fallen in that trap too once. The numbering scheme of Pycom is VERY CONFUSING!

Thank you very much for your patience again!!
Have a nice day!

Still no change (tried on a separate machine the other day), plan on attending the meetup on Thurdsay - hopefully there will be someone there with a laptop and a working updater! Not fussed if there isn't, should be an interesting evening - I hope.

@mike632t Sure! I'll be there to help you out! Interested in chatting about your experience and where you want to take your project!

See you on Thursday!

Cheers

@bucknall Found this post https://forum.pycom.io/post/5716

I assume it will work for upgrades as well as downgrades..?

Thanks for your help the other evening - I'm up and running now, though I'm no closer to being able to update the firmware myself.

For linux users I have a (useful?) bash script that beings up a console window and then waits up to 15s for me to plugin the device (that way I see any boot messages). I don't know if this will work on OSX as I don't have a Mac.

I need to update my blog post as I've recently modified the script to allows me to select the which serial device to connect to and baud rate to use.
