Start playing around with the latest mega build ( 20181201) but can't find any way to update this firmware to a newer version . Also the <esp ip>/update isn't available anymore ;(
How to update this versions ?

From the "tools" page you scroll down and you will see Load new firmware.

Is that the only thing missing? How about a screenshot of your tools page.

Interesting..... I had that build on several units and it was there on all of mine. :shock:
Pre-built images or do you self-compile? If self-compile perhaps there is a setting that got changed somewhere?
After that I'm out of ideas..... :idea:

I flashed and reflashed the default / pre builds (normal version)

If the firmware button is not there you need to update it with cable.

And what bin file exactly did you use?

There is a check to see if an OTA update is possible.
But I guess "disable" the button makes more sense than just removing it ;)

I will add the button and just disable it (including text to explain it) when OTA is not possible.

Simply stated, the space for the sketch should be large enough to hold the new OTA image and the current one.
As a work-around for 1M flash modules we have to 2-step update.
Then you first flash a 2-step-OTA firmware (included in the ZIP) and then the new version.
This new firmware file must then be less than 603(?) kB.
The "Minimal" build should fit, but the last few builds increased that one again, so 2 days ago I patched the build script to only include files in the ZIP when they would fit.
So in the last download you will not see the "minimal" build. (last one working with minimal was 20181204)
