can anyone find the anomaly with this? ![ZomboDroid%2026052019142554](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wyze/original/2X/4/451294ef2ea8f15a54ef4663274415c05565f31c.jpeg) I recently reverted my firmware temporarily so that I would have the ability to do time lapses without running into the “file does not exist” error. so I went back to .33 I recently noticed I have all the latest features of the beta ( person and vehicle tagging) even though I’m running this old version. I first noticed that I have the time stamp and motion box…while I was marking what was in the frame for the AI…… weird 😁 I wouldn’t call it a glitch as it is working just fine, just something interesting I found. @gemniii I know you had reverted some cameras too…did you have this happen on yours too? ---

@Bam No, I have not fooled with it, I figured since I reverted it wouldn’t work and I have not had much time to “play” recently. Might try it. I just hope they push the easy reversion capability out to the production version if it’s not already there. ---

How do I revert to an older version? ---

here the rough and dirty for how to do it. go into device info…go to firmware upgrade…click the have a problem area, and you should see a selection of past firmware’s….click what you want to go back to and it will load just like a regular firmware update. ---

I thought I saw this revert option available for me the other day…I don’t have a beta version. Now I can’t find the option though! It seems like it was removed. Edit: I found it said. You can’t be on the latest firmware to revert. You don’t need to be on beta though. ---

really? I talked with a production user on the latest production and he stated he didn’t have the option to revert. so we made the assumption it was only a beta thing. ---

Yes. I found out that I can revert to the older fw on my wyze pan because there’s a new available fw update that I haven’t upgraded to yet. I can just do the same thing you described to revert. Unfortunately, I can’t revert on the cameras that have the latest fw updates. ---

wow. interesting. I wonder why they would pull such a useful feature… hopefully it will be implemented again. ---

I don’t think they pulled it. It’s still available to revert but you can’t have the latest firmware or else you won’t have the option to click have a problem which leads you to the reverting page. They should make it available to revert even if you have the latest firmware. That would make more sense. @gemniii you can do it without the beta ---
