Flashing a Sonoff T1 and questions on the process

It should prompt you as to what it’s doing for each stage (if unclear, I’m open to feedback for better language :) ), but at 5, you do not need to manually change your IP address, you should have the IP configured as per 2 (from your AP), then when that step is complete you can connect to “FinalStage”.

I have updated the code and the included binaries so it can all be done off line, the original https://github.com/khcnz/Espressif2Arduino does go online, however that makes it harder for people (me) to use different binaries for testing etc :)

I'll give it a try and let you know.

For your second point, why not add a parameter which defines what binary to use (local/remote)?

The "FinalStage" image has a pre-built binary, this has hard coded in it the URL to get stuff from (and with this build it also turns it into an AP rather than a client). It would technically be possible to write to an unused portion of Flash, and hope it's still there after a reboot etc, but the extra complexity is not something I wanted to invest my time in as it would make the image larger, and lead to the potential for more errors (and then need to flash via serial).

If you were to rebuild the binaries at https://github.com/khcnz/Espressif2Arduino and drop them in place in the static directory, you could get this for your setup easily (the checksums etc are all dynamic to allow this to happen easily).

Cheers.
