I am having an issue with the nextion display. I managed to mess up the display firmware while upgrading, due I think to having blocked too much using Adguard so that an upgrade failed.
Running latest firmware 202510.0 the nextion upgrade writes a few percent and fails. The log suggests a timeout is causing the panel to reboot.
Is there a way to increase the timeout in the ESP which programs the nextion?
nspanel_ha_blueprint:
task_wdt_timeout_s: 30 # The default is "5"
But please remember to remove this customization after you succeed with the upload.
And please share your results.
[NOTE]
Be aware that the 5s is a protection which restarts your ESP when it is stuck on some activity. By changing this you are basically removing this protection.
I don’t have an organized list, but all those have been mentioned on each release notes (I know it’s hard to keep track this way)
I think one relevant was the “Update TFT display - Baud rate”, which was removed more because this functionality was broken (and I believe it will be fixed with ESPHome v2025.11.0).
A few of recently added entities (sound volume, boot sound and upload tft automatically) where also removed before users get used to.
The post above prompted me to ask this question. I have an ecobee thermostat connected with the Homekit integration. I have noticed recently that on my NSpanel I cannot change power it off or change the climate mode from heat to cool or to dual. Not sure when this stopped working as it is not something I change often. It still functions fine through the HA UI. ESPhome/TFT/Blueprint version 4.3.42 Esphome 2025.10.3
I watched the logs when I pressed the cool button (currently in heat mode)
and saw this

So It is seeing the button press “climate,hvac_mode,cool,0” should the “0” be a “1”
When I go to developer tools and change the HVAC mode the command is
“climate.set_hvac_mode” the button press does not have the “set” part.
Hello. Thank you very much for your hard work.
I am a beginner, and as such I have a possibly stupid question.
Is it possible to transmit a video image to the nspanel, for example from a doorbell camera.
Thanks and again I apologize if my question is stupid.
just found this after latest update:
“NSPanel Configuration” auromation (automation.nspanel_configuration_2) has an unknown action: esphome.nsbianco_init_page_home.
I got sorted by using a local copy of the TFT and uploading it by:
defining the local URL in yaml
storing a copy on my server
choosing the local URL option in the settings before pressing Upload.
I still have a problem with my ISP whereby large downloads sometimes fail, which might be the cause of the original trouble. Because of that, i cant upgrade to espHome 2025.10.4, but my NSpanels do now work.
Thanks for your help
