Syntax errors
#21
getting closer but still no cigar I can get chip id https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1Dk0B...nVhWUZvbWc
but not luck so far with
esptool.py --port COM5 --baud 115200 read_flash 0x000 524288 backup.bin
it reads the chip but has a permission problem at the end https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1Dk0B...jRwVEdGRFE

Try running cmd as administrator.

Smile success at last, have created a backup of the flash using
esptool.py --port COM5 --baud 115200 read_flash 0x000 524288 backup.bin
thanks everyone for their help!!

my next questions are
will the backup.bin file have everything on the chip or just what was at 0x000? do I need to copy more addresses (what would they be?)
how do I know if 524288 is the right memory size

thanks again for your help sofar
