- Update 28th November 2021
Most of the people have complained that the firmware is not available on the ESP website, but it's not true, the firmware is now available in EP8266 legacy section, and as of today can be found here.

And I have also uploaded the firmware which is used in this video on my Google Drive, and can be downloaded from the below provided link.

This was a very useful video for me as I had never used an ESP-01S before and I assumed those USB adapters were capable of programming them. I did the same modification with jumper wires - it's a nice, quick way to get going albeit with some soldering. I wrote an article on using the ESP-01S with the Pi Pico. Thanks!
I've spent over 8 hours trying to flash my esp8266 boards and this was the most useful and helpful video ever. Thank you so much for the time and effort on posting this video.
The method of connecting the reset/flash to ground and leaving flash grounded after resetting has fixed many problems while flashing(no response, serial errors, etc). Thank you so much again!
Thank You :-)
I liked it, very punctual and concise. I recovered several of my ESP8266 modules. Thanks.
Muchisimas gracias, estuve buscando precisamente esa version del flash tool y no la encontraba por ningun lado. Te has ganado un suscriptor. :)
Thanks a lot, the first step was important Run as Administrator that solved my issues.
Finally got it to work!! Great video!! Thank you ! :)
I am not getting the ESP8266 NonOS AT Bin V1.7.4 on the link provided, can you help me. Is there any other link
Thanks for making this video. Have subscribed your channel.
I manage to make it but I think maybe a missing step is to first erase whatever is on the chip and then flash it. After I erased it it worked. Thank you for this!
I will double-check on this point, and if it looks true, I will pin your comment. Thanks
Great video - concise and to the point. Took me a while to figure - but the module has to be put into AT+CWMODE=3 after flashing new firmware, otherwise AT+CWLAP returns "ERROR".
Sorry I couldn't answer this question at the moment. Please check the datasheet and also match which software version you are using on the ESP8266 device.
Hi, great video. Is this just for esp8266 esp-01 or can I do it even for nodemcu and wemos d1 mini version which has more io pins. Thanks for answering
Thank you for your comment.
I think It will work for all esp8266 modules, but you just have to find out the correct pins to force reset and flash pin to ground as shown in the video.
I have one nodemcu with me, so I can try with that and update you.
@@EmbeddedLaboratory Thanks :)
Very good! It helped me a lot!
Outstanding Video! Thank You!
Great video, but in my case I had to put the Enable (EN) pin on 3.3V to be able either to read the Detected Info and to flash the updated FW into the ESP 8266 module.
Useful tutorial 👍
Thanks for the VDO. But I am not getting the ESP8266 NonOS AT Bin V1.7.4 on the link provided by you. how do I get that firmware
It moves to ESP8266 Legacy section
I uploaded the firmware used in the video on my Google Drive, u can download it from here.

thanks for share your knowledge. I can resolve and apply this technique
Thanks
Hi.. Can i follow the same procedure for ESP 12E? Is there any change in circuit connections?
Information provided over email
hello thanks for the great video the flash process has worked so far however I get no output on the serial monitor and when I try to upload something there is also no output on the serial monitor when requested and that with all esp01s I have flashed with it with all the same error
Is your USB to serial converter working, you can check this by shorting RX-TX line, if this works then maybe try to check your module connection with USB to serial.
Hey @mortarmax did you end up figuring this out? I can't get my device to output anything in the serial monitor. I've tried multiple esp-01s and still nothing. I have not tried to flash them yet.
I uploaded as in the video esp01-s to my card. However, the serial is constantly blinking blue LED and the serial port screen is constantly swiftly written.
Sorry, not able to understand what exactly you want to say.
I would suggest you to re-watch the video properly and follow the steps.
If still working, share the pictures of your setup and record your screen and mail me at laboratory.embedded@gmail.com
I will try to find out what is done wrong here.
Do not worry, i had the same problem, i solved it just following the steps in the video, you should disconnect rst from ground 1 second after you click on "start" when programming the bin files
Do you have instructions on how to flash IDF AT instead of non-OS AT is it looks like it is being deprecated? Thanks!
Uploading firmware should be same, anyways I will check and update if I found something
@@EmbeddedLaboratory I checked before asking and it looks different. Not the same set of files and not the same upload documentation. Would be great if you could have a look. Thanks!
Okay @erich i will try to investigate
@@EmbeddedLaboratory thanks a lot!
Any news?@@erich7431
DT-W5G1 looking for video on flashing my new DT-W5G1
👍👍👍👍
Now the firmware file download page has change. Which file can I download to burn ?
I have uploaded the firmware on Google Drive, you can download it from here

Can we flash micropython firmware?
Thx you! god
is this the latest at firmware? im confused which is which
I just checked the espressif website and still 1.7.4 is the latest version. This is non os based firmware
@@EmbeddedLaboratory this one? ESP8266 NonOS AT Bin V1.7.4
Yes, exactly
Can i use Android mobile to this project
My esp started blinking like crazy when i finished uploading and it's not working
Happened me too. Erase it with esptool and upload the new firmware with this tool as well. It has fixed my ESP-01 after many attempts using that GUI Flash tool.
first step already does not work, Hercules cannot find my device
Information is good but why skip the part of selecting the bin files one at a time ?
Maybe I didn't understood your comment properly.
I didn't skip binary selection part, please see from 4:10 of the video, I selected each binaries and
If you mean something else, please let me know, I will try to answer.
@@EmbeddedLaboratory I was doing it the wrong way, i tried it again and it woked. Many thanks.
Glad that it works finally 🙂
The ESP8266 NON-OS BIN that you downloaded..... is no longer available on the website you link. (further adding to the confusion if anyone wants an ESP8266 to work). This tutorial doesn't work any more as a result.
This is not true, you can still find this under ESP8266 Legacy section
www.espressif.com/en/support/download/at?keys=&field_type_tid%5B%5D=14&field_type_tid%5B%5D=799
Anyways I have uploaded the firmware used in the video under the following link, you can get it from here.

Whatever i try, my module will not respond to any serial message, i just cant figure out why
Did you tried by changing your baud rate?
This is the only reason which I can think as of now
@grindfi did you end up figuring this out? I can't get my device to output anything in the serial monitor. I've tried multiple esp-01s and still nothing. I have not tried to flash them yet.
Does could use 5G wifi 6??
