Hello I have a ESP32 Thing which has a broken usb connector. Is it possible to program it from arduino ide via some other pins?
If you can solder the USB D- & D+ pins to pins 11 & 12 of the USB-Serial chip (FT231XS) you can still use the USB. However, beyond that, will be a lot more difficult. You’ll have to use the schematic found here: https://cdn.sparkfun.com/assets/learn_t … ematic.pdf
