@fran said in M5Stick C - Cannot flash firmware:

b/ Downloaded UIFLow-V1.3.2...and BURN

You have to download & burn appropriate UIFlow version into Stick C,
according to the version of UIFlow you're going to use

SO...in fact you van download and burn 1.4.5.1 now, as it will be default UIFlow version too
(you can switch to older versions of UIFlow on top right corner of interface of UIFlow (Computer version, don't know for Web UI Flow version)

Hi Guys

I'm on Windows 10
as everybody...same issue:

esptool.py v2.5.0
Serial port COM1
Connecting......................................_____

A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to Espressif device: Timed out waiting for packet header
Finished

SOLVED buy:

1/ Connecting USB cable till the end (My mistake was not to force it till the end...in fact it enters inside the MR StickC till the end)

2/ installing official driver from this link:
https://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers

3/ And.... Changing USB port!
More details here

4/ Using Burner:
a/Erase StickC at minimum speed, and trought new COM4 port in my case
