Stability of ESPHOME / NEXTION

Hi all,

As I´ve commented in another post I´m implementing some HA domotics in a Nextion NSPANEL.

Now, when the project is quite big, I have stability issues with some resets and I´m not able to identify the root cause. I’ve tried VERBOSE, VERY VERBOSE … but I cannot read somthing that helps me to indentify the cause.

My problems, for instance:

  • I cannot perform direct OTA updates. When launched, I have a reset during the process. I have to restart the unit in safe mode (some times requires two resets) .
    I expected an OTA process more robust disabling all “processes” to prevent these issues :frowning:
  • I cannot launch a TFT update, same problem. I have to use an intermediate version (simplified → less nextion items integrated).

Trying to read weather forecast from HA to send it to NSPANEL, I´ve realised that Esphome does not support nested attributes. So, I´ve created template sensors in HA and I use them to send the data to NSPANEL.
Everything seems to work properly, but increase the instability of the system. Removing reading these templated sensors, and also the polling for nextion variables, resets dissapear.

This is the size of the project, not too much, I think.
RAM: [= ] 14.3% (used 46852 bytes from 327680 bytes)
Flash: [====== ] 64.3% (used 1179917 bytes from 1835008 bytes)

Can you advise me how I can look for the problems?

Thanks a lot
