The OTA password has been lost and can not get the ESPhome flasher to upload over the air via ESPhome. Is there a way to reset the Athom plug so a new binary can be uploaded via OTA?
I'm coming to ask the same thing. I mistakenly thought removing the password from the configuration would flash it without a password. Unfortunately I was wrong and ESPHome won't flash without the old OTA password. I've tried holding the button a long time and power cycling every 2 seconds for about a minute. So far the device hasn't reset.
Well, the plug is probably connecting fine to your Home Wi-Fi; and therefore does not enable the "fallback". The AP is only enabled when it can't find your Wi-Fi network. Try to bring your plug out of range, or disable your home Wi-Fi temporarily.
