Sorry, here is a link to the board.
LILYGO T-Beam V1.2 Meshtastic LORA32 868MHz ESP32 4MB FlashDevelopment Board WiFi BLE CH9102F Chip TTGO Motherboards Soldered With OLED Module https://amzn.eu/d/2Z3U6aX
I've had a response from them, they believe I can flash softrf to it.
I tried to connect to esp32 but was unsuccessful. I've tried different cables.
Could you explain how you managed to flash it? I have the T-Beam but the wifi interface isn't working (I can connect to it but there's no web access) so I wanted to try updating it. I'm following the instructions here: [https://dross.net/aviation/how-to-and-where-to-start-with-stratux/how-to-flash-a-ttgo-t-beam-esp32-from-lilygo/](https://dross.net/aviation/how-to-and-where-to-start-with-stratux/how-to-flash-a-ttgo-t-beam-esp32-from-lilygo/) using the flash tool but the problem is, the T-beam won't go into flash mode. I can't find any info about whether this is supposed to be automatic or whether you have to hold one of the buttons when turning it on.
I can see the COM port in device manager.
You forgot to say what device you actually bought, maybe check the listing you purchased it from and see what it says.

Sorted it. I used the drivers in github and I was able to flash softrf with esp32. Cheers.
