Issues with V3 4.36.8.15 firmware #27

With Wyze forcing all cams to update to the latest firmware by end of January, I went ahead and bit the bullet and am updating to 4.36.8.15 on my V3 cams. The good news is that WyzeCameraLiveStream still works with it, sometimes. There are a few things that can happen when you enable the hack:

  1. The cam will refuse it and might go into a boot loop until you disable it
  2. Sometimes the cam does not reboot, and so using VLC will allow me to see the video feed as usual, except now you can't view it on the Wyze app

I believe the rootfs is updated from when this hack was created so that may or may not have something to do with it.

Have you tried roll back ot early firmware , install the hack and see if wyze will force to update?
