Dupont wire is a jumper wire right? I can’t find cheap pogo pins here in Brazil. Only packages with 50…60…and I just need 4. Can I use this cable that I found here in my stuff, cutting the bottom and soldering it to the sonoff?

That must work.
Thanks. I will have to buy the ftdi board and a soldering iron. Any specific model of soldering iron? I saw it is very small. The pogo pin would be perfect.
Do you have an Arduino board? You can use the serial port on it if you don’t have a dedicated serial adapter.
I will get the ftdi ft232r board today. I will get a 3d support for the mini too…so I don’t need to sold (it’s too small and I don’t have the tools for that).
Since I installed minimal.bin…after connecting with ftdi board…what should I do? Is the procedure the same as if the sonoff was still with the original firmware?
Thanks.
Edit: Francisp, thank you! It worked. I can’t reply anymore because it says I reached the reply limit for begginers. Now I’m using the sonoff mini with tasmota on the smartthings hub (home assistant is to complex for begginers). The physical switch is working too, but I had to change a config…something like GPIO4 swith 1 (9).
But I have two more questions. There is no blue light when its connected anymore. There is just a red light when I turn it on. How can I set this blue light again, as it works with Itead firmware and Ewelink app?
How can I set the power return state? I want it stays off when the power is back.
Thanks.
Edit2: It sucks I can’t replay more than 3 times.
Francisp, thank you again for you help and time. I put the template you said, but I had to change the LedPower and LedState through the console too.
About the power reset state, I managed to make it work on the console like you said. I hadn’t seen the console on the webUI. The problem is I’m not a home assistant user (too complicated for begginers and non-technical users). I’m using samsung smartthings hub. The smartthings application receives the response state from the device, it’s working, but when the power is off and back, the application keeps the last state. So, if the sonoff is on (application shows on) and the power is off and back, the sonoff is now off because I changed the power reset state, but the application says it’s off until I click in the device again. I now you probably don’t know about the samsung smartthings, but there is no cost to ask. Do you know how to make the application show the correct state after a power reset?
Thanks.
It is the same as you would flash a sonoff which does not have ota support. Start NodeMCU-PyFlasher-4.0-x64, select your com-port, your bin, d-out, and hit flash.

For the led : You apply the correct template
Power reset state : In the tasmota console, enter the correct poweronstate
PowerOnState Control power state when the device is powered up. More information
0 / OFF = keep power(s) OFF after power up
1 / ON = turn power(s) ON after power up
2 / TOGGLE = toggle power(s) from last saved state
3 = switch power(s) to their last saved state (default)
4 = turn power(s) ON and disable further power control
5 = after a PulseTime period turn power(s) ON (acts as inverted PulseTime mode)

You could create a rule.
If you need help creating the rule, this is a good place to ask for help :
Thanks. I will let the default configuration of power reset state because I don’t know how to use these rules work on Samsung Smartthings.
Can I flash with Itead firmware after flashed with Tasmota firmware?
When I flashed with Tasmota minimal through tool_01DIY85(3.3.0), an itead.bin file appears in the same folder of the tool. Is this the original flash so I can flash it back?
I need to know this because maybe in the future I will exchange all my sonoff mini for a zigbee device that will launch and have native support on samsung smartthings…and if I do that I need to install the original firmware back so I can sell or give it to someone who doesn’t use home assistant nor smartthings
