Can not get into bootloader-mode

Can not flash my new project on ESP32-D0WDQ6 (revision 0).
Assume that one of specific gpio was used. Peale suggest which one. Schematic attached to the ticket. GPIO5 and MTMS pin are removed already, but result is the same. Can some one give any advice?

Are you getting any serial activity on U0TXD at all? If so, can you post what it says after trying to reset into download mode?

I am not sure if I am answering your question, but I managed to get a WROOM 32 into boot mode as follows:

(correction): Install 10K resistor parallel to C20.

Increase C20 to 10 uF or larger.

Hope this helps. Please let me know.

Connect R21 to GND (and not 3V3).

Increase C20 to 10 uF or larger.

Hope this helps. Please let me know.

Unfortunatelly it does not work for me

Ahrg, I could have spotted that in the schematics. You can't program the flash because there is no flash to program: The ESP32-D0WD does not come with in-package flash; you need to supply that yourself, and I don't see any in your schematic.

Ah.. shame to me. Can you suggest any pin-to-pin with programable flash?

My error. Please see my corrected post.

But it will not work without a flash.

Sure. The datasheet also has the type numbers for the chips that do integrate flash; for instance in your case you want the the ESP32-U4WDH.
