#ive added another file to the same

thats most likely just an mDNS issue, are you able to see if the device is connected to your router, by checking the routers connected devices?
low tinsel
i have its not there

can you try flashing using usb, if you install from ESPHome dashboard and then choose 'manual' then once it's compiled it will ask you if you want modern or legacy, choose modern then save the .bin file you can then go to https://web.esphome.io and connect, then install and browse to the file you just created
low tinsel
thats how i have been doing it
ornate glen
ah ok , from the same site, can you click logs and then click 'reset device' and see if it gives you more info? if it doesnt try repeating but using the other usb on the board
low tinsel
ornate glen
that appears too be ok , but at the end it should then show the ESPHome logs, did you try with both usb's ?
1 is a debug port and the other is a com port , it's the debug/jtag port that will show the ESPHome logs too

try changing the below and try again and get the same logs ,
logger:
hardware_uart: uart0
and also change the following back to dio (it should be qio currently)

it's only loading the bootloader by the looks of things and not then going on to load the esphome config. i'm not familiar with these boards and not come across this issue. i'm just having a read through the datasheet for the board
low tinsel
yes it is an odd board its the only one i know with octal flash and it has been a while but when i programmed these through visual studio code it needed something different in the settings but i cannot remember what
ornate glen
have you used this particular board previously ?
low tinsel
yes but for arduino projects not for esphome
ornate glen
just wondering if it may be worth using esptool to erase it if you haven't already then to re-flash
low tinsel
i had them laying around and thought they would be better for the voice assistant
ornate glen
yes , they would work well 🙂 it's just getting it to work 😁
do you have esptool installed?
low tinsel
trying now i have python on windows but not esptool yet
ornate glen
once you have it installed you can run esptool erase_flash and it should detect the serial port
