Yesterday I successfully flashed three out of four S20 v2.1.0 devices with ESPHome firmware. While flashing the fourth one, I accidently interrupted one of the cables (most likely the power supply [3.3 V via TTL to USB adapter]) and since this the device is not recognized by the flashing tool (ESPHome Flasher) anymore. Is there a possibilty to fix this and to flash a firmware onto the device? Could this even be the problem? How could I check what the problem is?

Oh no. Sorry this happened ! I would try to erase the flash and format the file system and then try flashing it again.

Actually the problem is solved because (at least) one solder spot was broken (this was not visible, I just refreshed all of them preventive). But you link is although very interesting, thanks for that! BTW I never had so much trouble soldering solder spots as I had with the Sonoff platine. It was almost impossible to make the solder hold on the spots...– alve89Commented Jan 30, 2021 at 7:12
