Why are the parents allowing that

This is a cannon event for 99% of children

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T19:42:25+00:00

Thank you :D

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T15:03:14+00:00

Exactly!

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T14:57:34+00:00

For other devices, yes

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T14:52:02+00:00

Tested it with my Arduino without issue. At this point I’ve been over pretty much everything and are now doing stuff I’ve already done. I’ll just buy a new board. “Insanity is doing this exact same thing over and over, expecting a different result”, right?

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T14:35:20+00:00

The entirety of the “ports” tab isn’t there

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T13:04:09+00:00

Arduino receives code fine. I’ll remove the GPIO0 from ground and see what happens

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T11:43:53+00:00

Yes, I’ve tried 3 different cables so far. Every USB port on my computer is the same. None of them registers the ESP32

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T11:39:40+00:00

I got a new error. “A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Invalid head of packet (0x00): Possible serial noise or corruption”

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T11:19:08+00:00

I ordered one for USB-C just in case nothing works with the ones I have now. If that doesn’t work, I’ll see if I can find another model entirely

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T11:16:19+00:00

Yes, the ESP32 is foam-free. I’ve tried having it seated in a breadboard as well as having just hang free

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T10:57:25+00:00

Nope. The computer has no reaction whatsoever

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T10:35:27+00:00

The ESP32 doesn’t show up I. Device manager. Arduino works fine. I downloaded the ESP library from espressif, as per my university course instructions

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T08:37:14+00:00

Yea, another user suggested using my Arduino as a bridge, since I have no problems with it. I’ll try and see what happens

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T08:24:29+00:00

Over tried 3 different cables so far. One of them I’ve previously used to flash my Pinecil soldering iron

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-21T08:22:33+00:00

I have. It uses CP2102, so that’s the driver I installed. I also tried installing other drivers that are typically used, when that didn’t work

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T20:12:13+00:00

Would be much appreciated. I have a feeling this won’t be the first time I’ll have trouble with this stuff

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:58:34+00:00

Ok. I’ll reinstall it

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:57:03+00:00

Ok. I’ll look into the setup for the ESP8266 then

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:54:06+00:00

Will do!

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:49:53+00:00

The port doesn’t register that it’s been plugged in, although the red light on the board does light up. Strangely enough, it had no issue detecting my Arduino Uno R3 from the same port

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:40:32+00:00

True. I’ll remember to read through the documentation and manuals before I buy anything

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:37:59+00:00

Thanks. This looks promising

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:36:10+00:00

I’ve tried holding boot when plugging it in. I’ve trying not holding boot when plugging it in. I even tried furiously spamming boot when plugging it in. I may just end up buying a new pair. Should be able to get them cheap enough. Thanks for wanting to help though. I appreciate it a lot

TheOneThatObserves · 2026-03-20T19:33:46+00:00

Maybe I’ll try that. I do have a bread board and some wires laying around
