- Hold down the GPIO0 button, the red LED will be lit
- While holding down GPIO0, click the RESET button
- Release RESET, then release GPIO0
- When you release the RESET button, the red LED will be lit dimly, this means it's ready to bootload

Re: HUZZAH esp8266 not able to bootload
OK, sounds like bootloader is generally working. It's a ROM bootloader, so is essentially impossible to break.
What happens if you select the COM port for your USB/TTL convert and attempt to upload Blink?

Swap TX/RX wires on one end.
HUZZAH TX should go to USB/TTL RX
HUZZAH RX should go to USB/TTL TX
HUZZAH TX should go to USB/TTL RX
HUZZAH RX should go to USB/TTL TX

Re: HUZZAH esp8266 not able to bootload
See here for esptool troubleshooting:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... oting.html
Is the problem repeatable?
Power is mentioned as a possible cause. Make sure the soldering on the V+ pin is good.
