So bought a Sonoff minir4 from @SmartPad pre-flashed with tasmota.

At first I had problems with toggling via HA (had a previous post in HA) which came right after resetting.

After a recent toggle. Everything just stopped working and now when logging into the device I can’t even toggle directly via the webui as the button has now disappeared.

I reset the config but no go on that. Is there a way to re flash the device and if so which firmware to use? The firmware in the webui is different from my other sonoff basics?

Hi @acidrain, were sorry to hear you are having trouble with your device.

The MiniR4 has an ESP32 Chip in it, so you are correct that the firmware build will be different to the conventional sonoff Basic which runs the predecessor ESP8266.

The firmware builds are available here: https://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release with this being the specific version for the Mini R4 http://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/tasmota32.bin

Reflashing might not be necessary, since your device is reachable via the web.

Here is the template that is needed for all the relays and switches to be correctly mapped on the device.

{"NAME":"Sonoff MINIR4","GPIO":[32,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,576,0,0,0,0,0,0,224,160,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],"FLAG":0,"BASE":1}

Navigate to "Configuration" -> "Other" and then paste the above template in the "Template" section, make sure "Active" is checked and hit save. this will restore the configure needed for the device to function.

Please give this a try, and if you are still having trouble lease reach out to us via the contact details on our site and we will see how we can help troubleshoot further.

Thanks. Did a bit of digging and noticed the template was page was reset, didn't think to check other but updated that now as well.

Will have a look, just very weird that out of the blue the device just reset to default (before I reset it as well), but will see now if all is good.
