Certification software reboot in loop

[j.mouton]

Hi everybody,

I follow the guide "ESP32_Certification_and_Test_Guide__EN.pdf" to put the ESP32 into FCC Certification mode. After flashing the module then rebooting it, it is stuck into a reboot loop :

rst:0x1 (POWERON_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
flash read err, 1000
ets_main.c 371
ets Jun 8 2016 00:22:57

rst:0x10 (RTCWDT_RTC_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
configsip: 0, SPIWP:0x00
clk_drv:0x00,q_drv:0x00,d_drv:0x00,cs0_drv:0x00,hd_drv:0x00,wp_drv:0x00
mode:QIO, clock div:2
load:0x40080000,len:172476
1162 mmu set 00010000, pos 00010000
1162 mmu set 00020000, pos 00020000
ho 0 tail 12 room 4
load:0xffffffff,len:-177

The second block is repeated infinitely.

My hardware is an ESP32-DevKitC and I flashed the module with ESP32 DOWNLOAD TOOL V3.6.3


Anyone get an idea ?

Are you sure your ESP32 gets enough juice? Sometimes anemic USB cables can lead to issues like this. When in doubt, you can use a 5V lab power supply to power the board.

Hi j.mouton,

Try flashing the image with "--flash_mode dio" (if using esptool.py), or set DIO mode (rather than QIO mode) in the Windows flasher tool.

I've tried but the result is the same.

It was already my configuration as you can see on the picture :
