Esp 01 does not connect using ESP core version 2.4 or higher and Blynk 0.5.4

Why should how you flash the code to the device affect how OTA works?

@Hannes_Sapiens

void loop()
{
if (OTA == 0)
{
Blynk.run();
} else if (OTA == 1)
{
ArduinoOTA.handle();
}
}

And what is with this convoluted if()… just leave your OTA command in the loop() running as fast as it can so as to be able to do its job.

1 - Basic ESP8266 & ESP32 based Blynk with OTA template Let’s start off with a basic starter sketch I use for all my ESP based projects… saves me a bit of typing Nope, I haven’t yet set it up for automatic #ifdef choice of ESP8266 or ESP32… I will leave that for you for now #define BLYNK_PRINT Serial // This prints to Serial Monitor // #define BLYNK_DEBUG // Optional, this enables more detailed prints //// Pick one Blynk Device Library group or other ////-------…

PS works fine on ESP Core 2.4.2 for me
