I’ve never had any problems leaving the resistors in.
But nothing must be connected to the onboard USB connector while the patch cable is active.

Which ESP32-C3 hardware is this?

The USB Debugging interface is described in 21.3 of https://www.espressif.com/sites/default/files/documentation/esp32-c3_technical_reference_manual_en.pdf#iomuxgpio Mostly it's blah, blah, blah but of interest: ... which may happen in Light Sleep. Additionally, the USB serial/JTAG Controller (as wel...

I assume this will need a jtag debugger wired up Yeah, I was trying to avoid buying a separate jtag J-Link type debugger and tried this: https://dspobjects.com/2021/10/20/esp32-c3-dev-kit-in-circuit-debugging/ Based on this: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32c3/api-guides/u...

I’m just wondering how you are connecting to the ESP32-C3 Dev Kit and debugging with Visual Studio Code and PlatformIO. And what OS. I filled this PlatformIO issue because I couldn’t get that setup to work without wiring up a separate USB connector. https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32...

Maybe something similar for openocd git clone --recursive https://github.com/espressif/openocd-esp32.git Cloning into 'openocd-esp32'... remote: Enumerating objects: 75431, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (7189/7189), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (2208/2208), done. remote: Total 7543...

I’m having fun with this tutorial from Western Digital https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6noQ0vZDAdh_aGvqKvxd0brXImHXMuLY riscv ISA IMC32 like the C3 but more expensive hardware $60 https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive1-rev-b Espressif isn’t total left out as they provide wireless with ESP32-solo ...

If you are interested in going with the ESP32-C3, the README on this product https://github.com/wuxx/nanoESP32-C3 seems to have all the important features.
It was the first one google came up with for me.

Thanks for this.
I had never done any Android development. Downloaded Android Studio for Linux and after a couple of trips to Stack Exchange, I was debugging on an old Pixel 3.
Please update us with your progress on the ESP32 side.

in your sdkconfig file you can comment these lines :
CONFIG_MBEDTLS_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE=y
CONFIG_MBEDTLS_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE_DEFAULT_FULL
