Revert back to original flash layout / partitions #23090
-
|
Hi, I have a bunch of athom plugs (read no serial port accessable) and would like to migrate to EspHome. Unfortunately these plugs seem to have v13 installed from the factory and hence have the SafeBoot partition map. Whilst I understand the inherent risk of changing partitioning via OTA, is there a way to do this? Alternatively can you use partition wizard to revert the partition size back to normal? Many thanks in advance |

Tasmota does not provide a prodecure or tools to move away from safeboot scheme. |

In principle, "someone" could use the functions used by tools like Partition Wizard to create a tool for degrading the flash layout, but then the "usual question" is who has the interest to spend time on working out the details of doing that..... More generally, you cannot expect OTA upgrade features built into one firmware project to be an avenue to replacing it with a completely different type of firmware, unless the "alien" firmware is able to handle the "unexpected" layout. This is what has been done to OTA update Shelly devices to Tasmota, needing some extra gymnastics on the Tasmota side to work. |
