Marauder Mobile v1.1.0 — in-app ESP32 flasher
Flash and update your ESP32 Marauder from the phone itself — no PC, no
esptool, no cables to a computer. Marauder Mobile can now download the firmware
and write it to the board over the same USB-OTG connection it uses to control it.
What's new
- In-app firmware flasher. A new Flash & Update flow writes the Marauder
firmware to a connected ESP32 straight from your phone. - Two entry points:
- Before connecting — a Flash / update firmware button on the connect
screen, so you can flash a fresh or bricked board without a working session. - After connecting — a Flash & Update item in the main menu.
- Before connecting — a Flash / update firmware button on the connect
- Downloads the firmware for you from the pinned release
v1.12.3-jsonserial
on0xsys/ESP32Marauder, then flashes it over USB and verifies every byte
against the device's own MD5 before rebooting into the new firmware. - Fast transfer. Uses a higher baud rate and compressed writes, with an
automatic fallback to a plain, maximally-compatible transfer if the board
rejects the fast path — so a flash never fails just for being fast.
How to flash
- Connect the ESP32 to your phone with a USB-OTG cable.
- Open Flash & Update (from the connect screen, or the main menu once
connected) and pick the board. - Confirm. The app downloads the firmware, writes it, verifies it, and reboots
the board. Keep the cable connected until it finishes.
If flashing fails
Put the ESP32 into boot (download) mode by hand and try again:
- Hold the BOOT / IO0 button.
- Briefly tap EN / RST.
- Release BOOT — the board is now waiting for firmware.
- Start the flash again.
Compatibility
- Target board:
marauder_v4(classic ESP32 / ESP32-WROOM). Other chip
