tft update problem

[hBrinkmann62]

After i have updated the ESP32 version and the blueprint i have to update the nspanel_eu.tft also. So i download it and put it to the HA upload folder. When i start the upload, it will not start send data from 0% to 100% but somewhere at 80 or 90% to 100%, sends this data to the display. Afterwards i cannot display anything because there is a mixture of tpl data in the display that makes errors.
To correctly update the tft file i must first recompile the code using the nspanel_blank.tft. Then i can send the blank tft and it works fine (showing a QR Code).
Then i must recompile using nspanel_eu.tft, send the new nspanel_eu.tft and it works.
What also does not work is to directly upload from http(s) because the upload terminates before its ready, i don't know why.

Could you please share the ESPHome logs from the moment you press the upload button until a few seconds after the panel restarts?

You are running a quite old version of this firmware (v4.2.6). Do you have any reason for not installing the latest (v4.3.11)? After installing the latest firmware, please try the TFT upload again (it needed) and share the new logs if the issue persists.
Its always hard to troubleshoot with older versions.

I have a question too, regarding the tft upload.
So I updated today from an quite old version. I changed the yaml content of each Panel with the new one on this page.
But when I use the tft version from the drop down menu at the device section and push the Update tft button a window appears on the panel where I have to choose yes or no. But then nothing happens just an empty screen with the clock, notheing else.
I tried the old way by uploading the tft-file to www folder, that works.
So is this still the right way to do that? I think the docu isnt really up to date, isnt it?

But the 2nd problem is, home assistant says I have to make an repair because: "esphome.nspanelblacky_component_text" has an unknown action, what does it mean? What should I have to do?

[edwardtfn]

The dialog on your panel is expected, but not the yes/no question. 🤔

Are you able to repeat this? If so, could you please share the ESPHome logs?
