Fix-It Friday - 12/1/2023

I didn’t get home in time today to test this in daylight but it is something I wanted to do. Perhaps you might also to try and pin down the issue and maybe point Wyze in the right direction.

It sounds like the VDBv1 is detecting Person, Vehicle, and Pet; but when it comes to Package, it isn’t detecting packages when they are the only object… AND when there is a Person and a Package, it is causing it to ignore the Person.

Is that somewhat correct?

That would be interesting, and fairly easy to test it would seem…

But who else better to test these kind of things than the company that has access to every single item they make…
Can’t they test these things?

:disappointed: Reddit - Unable to stream cameras in Google Home :disappointed:

The Google Home app not viewing live streams is a bug on the Google Home app and they’re working on it now.

:clock4: Discord - Camera time and notification time do not match :clock430:

This can currently be resolved manually by changing your cell phone’s time zone to a different one, leaving it in the other time zone for 5 - 10 minutes, and then changing it back. But we’ve heard that this needs to be done each time some of you go into different time zones. We’re trying to put in a more permanent fix and could use your assistance! If this happens to you again after doing this workaround, please submit logs and, if possible, please list this info in the details: phone time, camera local time, and notification time. We’ll have the developers take a look! Here are the log instructions:

Okay, so basically the Pan V3 disconnection issue is never going to be fixed and you’ll just keep saying you need more logs? Considering the amount I’ve supplied just by myself, and that I know others have, it seems highly unlikely that even 10 unique sets of logs would not be sufficient to determine the problem. At what point can I get a refund because the cameras I bought from you simply do not work? I don’t want them anymore.

We appreciate the logs you and others have provided but we have had resource constraints that have made it hard to resolve this issue. We still intend to fix this issue, which is why it is still on the list.

To see about a refund you would need to contact Support as I do not have visibility into that area.

https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us

I also have been having the same issue and have submitted logs. I have a CamPan V3 that I didn’t upgrade the firmware on that is not having the connection issue. Firmware version 4.50.3.4240 seems to not have the connection issue. 4.50.4.7252 does have the issue. I also have a Doorbell V2 that goes offline the same time as the CamPan V3 and also won’t reconnect, I fortunately downloaded firmware 4.50.3.4240 so I might roll mine back so I don’t have to keep resetting it.

Can the firmware be rolled back? That would be great.

Additionally, I understand dealing with resource constraints, but that basically means it’s not a high enough priority (and should certainly be a higher priority than “thumbnails not new enough”). Your newest and relatively top-end pan cam has an issue that makes it literally unusable, and you have tons of people complaining and I’m sure you’re aware that every one complaint here probably represents hundreds of real users that don’t know or aren’t willing to post here. At this point it seems kind of shady that you’re even still selling them without a fix or disclaimer.

:man_beard: Discord - Facial Detection is not working on lots of cameras for people who have Cam Plus Unlimited :man_beard:

We believe it is now working as intended on Wyze Cam v3 and Wyze Video Doorbell v2. We are still working through the other cameras one by one to fix any other camera-specific issues. You can help us out by submitting a log when you have a Facial Recognition issue and posting the log number here so I can get it to the team.

In the Wyze app, go to Account > Wyze Support > Submit a Log. Select your device from the dropdown menu. Then fill in the description box with the date, time, and time zone of the most recent time you noticed this issue and a description of what’s happening. Make sure the Send Logs option is selected and then submit your log. When you have the log number, please post it and tag me so I can get it to the right folks.

:disappointed: Reddit - Unable to stream cameras in Google Home :disappointed:

The Google Home app not viewing live streams is a bug on the Google Home app and they’re working on it now. For Google Nest devices not viewing streams, please try re-pairing the connection between Wyze and Google Home. If that doesn’t work, please let us know by contacting support and opening a ticket as we will need to get your account info to troubleshoot further. After opening the support ticket, please post the ticket number here.

:clock4: Discord - Camera time and notification time do not match :clock430:

If this is still affecting you, please let us know and submit a log. We will remove it after next week if we do not hear anything. However, we will continue looking for a more permanent fix. You can manually resolve it currently by changing your cell phone’s time zone to a different one, leaving it in the other time zone for 5 - 10 minutes, and then changing it back.

Recreate the issue. Then in the Wyze app, go to Account > Wyze Support > Submit a Log. Select your device from the dropdown menu. Then fill in the description box with the date, time, and time zone of the most recent time you noticed this issue and a description of what’s happening.
