Hi there,
LOL, Ok
I used Arduino, Compiled and built, flashed individually the group
then combined them and flashed that , in between I flashed a SD card, Read sketch for validation each time.
Well Works Fine,
Compiler Output

Sketch uses 228422 bytes (17%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 13552 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 314128 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

here’s your Serial output (9600) baud BTW.

and here’s the Zip with a Bin

You can drop that directly on with EspRFTestTool and press reset to get same output as above.
FYI , USB must be plugged in, Your code has (While Serial) So…

HTH

P.S. I followed my own Guide here, maybe you should too. :v:
