Programming ESP32-S3 WROOM with a flexy pin board

Question

I am using ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8 module https://www.digikey.de/de/products/detail/espressif-systems/ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8/15200089 . I have compared pinout of all Wroom modules ESP32 ESP32-S3 as well as ESP32-WROVER have all the programming pins in exactly same positions so I was expecting this programmer to work for any of these modules. I am looking at GND, 3v3, EN, RX, TX, GPIO0.

I am using this flexy pin board from aliexpress https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005004605613498.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.91.21ef5c5f6R74vM&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu

When Uploading sketch I am getting following error:

StopIteration
[6848] Failed to execute script 'esptool' due to unhandled exception!
Chip is ESP32-S3
Features: WiFi, BLE
Crystal is 40MHz

Looks like it failed while configuring flash memory, I have gone through esptool's codebase on Github it seems to fail at this function https://github.com/espressif/esptool/blob/master/esptool/loader.py#L1167 I am not experienced with all this so can't figure out what is the issue. On board config, I have set

Flash mode: QIO 80MHz
Flash size: 8MB

I have selected ESP32S3 Dev Module as the board ESP32 Library v2.0.6

Update: When I opened the serial monitor, it is showing following

ESP-ROM:esp32s3-20210327
Build:Mar 27 2021
rst:0x7 (TG0WDT_SYS_RST),boot:0x8 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
Saved PC:0x40049b21
invalid header: 0xa5ff005a

Am I wrong in assuming all these modules can be programmed with this programmer?

Thanks in advance

Update 2: Changing upload speed from 921600 to 115200 fixed it, but the module still errored when running it. Serial monitor shows following:

Which went away after I disabled PSRAM in upload setting. Now I seem to be able to program and run it but the serial monitor is only showing debug messages, the message I am trying to print to serial is not showing up. Also blink sketch is also not working for BUILTIN_LED as well as GPIO1

• Juraj: try lower baud rate
• StarCat: I've never used these programming adapters, but to me it looks like the ESP32 module is supposed to be placed with the WiFi antenna to the left. What does the documentation say?
• Anil Maharjan: There is no documentation. That WIFI antenna is from ESP-12 module socket. I have checked continuity for few pins and they confirm that is the way the module is mounted.
• Anil Maharjan: @Juraj that actually helped, though it was already in lowest 921600 I increased it to 115200 Now I was able to upload the sketch but it failed while running it. I ll update the Question
• Juraj: 921600 is almost 1 mega
