This is a copy of a previous post I made under the getting started topic. Decided I’d make my own topic instead, as it’s not really related.
Yes, I do realize all of these steps are not needed, I was just trying different things trying to get some more info to provide, as a timeout error isn’t really specific.
I’m having an issue reading the certificates from the esp32 toniebox.
Using the screen command with a baudrate of 115200 without the jumper provides the output shown in the original post. With a baudrate of 921600, the part that was readable before is now gibberish, but I can see some of the logs of it connecting to my network. With the jumper and a baudrate of 115200, it shows that it goes into download mode, but again with a baudrate of 921600, it turns to gibberish. When using either the webui or the esp32 flashing tool, it seems as if it does not recognize the esp32 chip, and waits until it times out and gives an error. Hopefully someone knows what I am doing wrong, and can help me.
Thanks for the awesome research on the toniebox!
Right before using the webui, I disconnected the power source, made sure the jumper was secure, reconnected it, then used the webui, if that’s what you mean.
No usb hub, I plugged it directly into my laptop and pi. I’ll try plugging it into the motherboard on my pc though, I’ll update you tomorrow on how that works out, but if you have any other possible solutions you can think of, please let me know, so I can try it all when I have time.
Sorry to bother you again after so long, but before I order a new USB UART, could you let me know if you can think of any solutions? I am using a Raspberry Pi Pico with a USB UART program installed onto it. I was going to use my Pi 5, as that is what the server is running on, but they changed the way UART works, and have a dedicated port for it now with a special connector. The way to get UART through GPIO is very tricky now, and I’m not quite sure how to do it.
I had given up on it, but my baby sister gets annoyed from some of the songs on the tonies, so I want to change the songs on it, and be able to manage it from a webui.
