Have you tried pressing and holding the ESP32 BOOT button and then plugging in the USB? Please note that there is a SIM BOOT button next to it, so don’t press the wrong one.

[DJGLTD]

yep boot button and RST button are on the same side, the other button is labelled as 7670_boot pressing and holding that while connecting to usb does nothing, i am attempting to flash the demo AT Debug and for some reason still keep getting back to
"Play Successful"

Output from terminal is as follows when programming

OK, it was uploaded by platformio!

That's because you didn't change the running example, the default is examples/TextToSpeech

LilyGO-T-A76XX/platformio.ini

Line 93 in e49d1fd

src_dir = examples/TextToSpeech

You need to change the src_dir line to run the example. Please see README.
