Yi 1080p Home 2.1.0.0C_201803081641, Do I need to downgrade and how? #182

I can't flash the hack firmware, I just bought the camera, and the current firmware is 2.1.0.0C_201803081641. I guess it doesn't support the latest official firmware.

Do I need to downgrade and how?

gali8 commented 6 years ago

Look at the main page, at the end of the page there is the section "Going Back to Stock Firmware".

wolfit50 commented 6 years ago

I've tried to downgrade with these official firmware, it didn't happen.

gali8 commented 6 years ago

Why do you need to downgrade?? Don't forget to remove the extension ex: The firmware filenames for the Yi 1080p Dome camera must be home_h20 and rootfs_h20 (not home_h20.dem and rootfs_h20.dem)

wolfit50 commented 6 years ago

I could not flash the hacked firmware, I did every step at the main page, put home_y20 and rootfs_y20 on a formated Fat32 TF card, insert and plug power, it just didn't flash.

@wolfit50 Maybe try a different card of lower capacity. Also ensure the filenames don't have any extensions when you copy them. Only place both files on root path of the card and nothing else.

batrarobin commented 6 years ago

Also try a different computer to copy files into the card.

wolfit50 commented 6 years ago

@batrarobin tried 4g/16g/32g cards, still can't flash the firmware.

I've just hacked yi 1080p home with the newest official firmware, 2.1.0.0C_201803161855, everything works fine. no filename extensions, fat32, nothing else.

I just bought 3 Yi 1080p home cameras, I've tried Yi-hack-v3, v4 and others, but nothing seems to be able to flash the firmware anymore. I double checked that the format of the SD card is FAT32, since I'm doing it from a Mac, and also checked that there were no extensions to the two files I place in the root of the card to no avail. Any recent incidents you guys might know about?
