Instructions:
- Copy the .fap file into your Flipper Zero.
- Next we will flash the firmware to the ESP32-CAM module so prepare some jumper wires.
- Connect your ESP32-CAM module to your Flipper Zero:
VCC -> 3V3
GND -> GND
U0R -> TX
U0T -> RX
(Do not use the GND/RST pin on the ESP32-CAM!) - Connect pin 100 straight to the GND next to it on the ESP32-CAM. (Required for entering flash mode)
- Connect your Flipper Zero to a computer with a USB cable. (Do not open qFlipper or such)
- Open the USB-UART bridge app on your Flipper Zero (it's in the GPIO menu)
- Press the small reset button on the backside of the ESP32-CAM. (This will boot it into flash mode)
- Flash the firmware to your ESP32-CAM using one of the following methods:
- Using Arduino IDE and the source code:
- Add “https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json” to your board manager URL settings.
- Install the Esp32 library by going to “Tools > Board > Boards Manager > Search for Esp32 > Install Esp32 from Espressif Systems”.
- Select the right board: “Tools > Board > ESP32 Arduino > AI Thinker ESP32-CAM”.
- Select the right port by going to “Tools > Port”.
- Open the source code and chose "Sketch > Upload". (It may not work at first try. Don't worry. Try again.)
- Using EspTool and the attached .zip file (Batch file work in progress)
- Using the flipper itself as a standalone flasher (Work in Progress)
- After you've managed to flash the ESP32-CAM using one of the mentioned methods, you are ready to go. Leave only those four pins attached I've mentioned in the 3. step and run the [ESP32] Camera app on your Flipper Zero
