Sell Additional Wyze Doorbell Chimes Separately

@R.Good wrote and said he was on:

  • Samsung Note10+ and Pixel 6
  • Android App 2.27.33
  • VDBP Pro FW 1.0.52

And he only sees 6 chime sounds.

So @Omgitstony has the same app & FW versions as @Maruna, on a Pixel 3 w/Android 12, and sees 19.

@R.Good, @Omgitstony and myself all see 19 on iOS 2.27.16 (Beta). So iOS is good.

So even if @Maruna turns out to be working now, there is an issue with something because @R.Good is broke. Maybe Android Hardware or OS version compatibility?

It will help to have more input from @Maruna on what hardware & Android OS they are using. Also whether they are fixed or not, because if they are fixed, then the factory reset the doorbell or uninstall/reinstall of the app may have fixed them.

@R.Good – While we are waiting for @Maruna to clarify, you may want to try the uninstall/reinstall of the app since your iOS works (so guessing you don’t need to reset the doorbell).

keep scrolling down, this what we are looking at are at the top of the list.

Will happily do so… In the meantime, my side by side comparison rendered the below list

Ok, so some interesting results…
I uninstalled from both Android devices, rebooted each phone and re-installed from the Play Store.

On both phones, I launched the Wyze App, logged in, went directly to the VDPB Settings, then the chime option.

I was presented with a loading screen after selecting chimes, this ran for 90-120 seconds, the screen flashed and Chime Sound was not selectable.

I forced closed the Wyze App and went back to the Chime Settings and now there are now 24 Chimes on my Android Devices

Decided to try the same test on my iOS device…
Uninstall, Reinstall Beta from test flight, 19 chimes still.

Deleted Wyze Beta App and installed from Apple Store not test flight… 24 Chimes.

The list now looks like this.

Android - V2.27.33 iOS - 2.27.32 (5) From Apple Store NOT TEST FLIGHT

Maybe there is a refresh issue with the chimes “loading” and uninstalling and reinstalling resolves. I did have the odd behavior on the Android deices of the load timing out and the Chime Sound option not being responsive. This did not happen on iOS.

Wow, thanks much for the work here! :slight_smile:

So deleting & reinstalling your Android app fixed it with 24 sounds now being available, and installing the more recent iOS Production app also enhanced that side to 24. Sounds like an easy fix, thanks!

Happy New Year to you too! :tada:

Mine is not, .47. The tech said it should be over 50 but it doesn’t give me the option to upgrade the firmware

If you’re talking to me, I only have 1 more, normal ringtone or something like that

You may be able to get the new 1.0.52 firmware by going to Account tab > About > Beta Program > Edit > Select Wyze Video Doorbell Pro > Save. Then go back to the your WVDB Pro settings and see if you can see the newer firmware under Device Info > Firmware Version (whew!)

Happy New Year!! :tada: :slight_smile:

The only thing I didn’t do was to reboot the phone… trying that now…

I did Everything that was said her… twice and no luck, until I put the beta tester app on like @Newshound suggested. Now I have 24.

Computer wouldn’t even load it since the emulator is android 7.

Thank you so much for all the ideas and your help!

ps… I tried to reply earlier but since I’m a 6 month+ “new member,” I could only post 3 replies

As a final follow up, I removed the production Wyze App from my iPhone and reinstalled from Test Flight (Beta) and the chimes are back to 19. Sans the Christmas chimes.
