Maybe it’s talking about the MicroSD card in the Base and events that might have been sent there? Although, then those same events would’ve also been uploaded to the cloud and might as well be cloud events. Hmm 
No MicroSD card in the base either.

That “feature” must be there to appease the people clamoring for RTSP for V3 and buy time for its team “studying” how to implement RTSP.
Interesting. You should send in a log and make sure to report it to get looked at. I’m guessing it’s some kind of bug they didn’t take into account.
Unless it’s trying to tell us that the MicroSD card reader components are draining the battery that much even when we don’t have a MicroSD card. That would be interesting. I am guessing that their battery measurements are simply counting something else incorrectly and they can find and adjust that miscalculation.

So what is the order of firmware updates this time, base first or cameras first? I haven’t even looked at doing it yet, I am kind of leery of firmware updates these days

You should see information in the app saying that you should upgrade cameras first.
If you have issues you should troubleshoot accordingly.
If you have problems and need help just ask about what is the problem 
Thanks, I haven’t even looked in the app yet. I actually had no issues last update with the 4 WCO and base doing it from the app. Maybe I will get brave tomorrow.
No worries , Jump on it , go for it , 
there are many many ways to resolve issues when they arise
Daaaanng.
If this is the case, we’d better dang well get a playback option… 
EDIT-1: I’d even suggest something like a scheduled “burst” upload whereby the WCO isn’t continually uploading, but can either nightly/weekly upload everything to the hub from the most recent interval. Playback from the hub shouldn’t be a battery life concern. All of this optionally enabled of course with a warning popup that it will decrease expected battery life by some factor.
EDIT-2: If loss of revenue from Cam Plus is a concern, Wyze could also charge a modest 1-time license upgrade fee to enable this feature. Alternatively, they could offer a slightly higher priced hub/kit already inclusive of “enhanced playback”.

I just did this firmware on all my cams and all but two are now down. I have tied power cycling them and nothing. app cant reach them either…
Did you also update the base station firmware? Or are you referring to Cam V3?
All my devices updated except for two remaining V3s. Those are the only ones that work still. When I try to update those the update fails each time.
Same old stuff- 3 of the 4 cams said update failed but the new firmware is on all 4 and it states Everything’s good you’re up to date. No issues with up grading the base. Every thing seems to be working for now.
I’ve had this going on with my cam pans for quite some time. I know that I’m on really old firmware, but it works really well. Every attempt to bring it current fails even when I actually bring the camera in the same room as the router… 
EDIT-1: Last night I performed a manual firmware installation using the method below. It sputtered for a little minute and bounced twice. Once it went into operation, it no longer detected the very same microSD from which it had just updated itself… as in “no microSD card detected.” Anyone else encountered similar?
That’s good , everything is working for ya
I don’t have WCOs and all my V3s updated without any issue.
Also, I notice that the “More” display disappears after pressing the siren. Would have been better if it stays so the siren button is still accessible. The way it is now, you need another input to bring back the “More” display.
Both my Wyze Came v3 stopped working Sunday June 13, 2021. I have power cycled the cameras, check for internet connection. Can this be related to the forced trial of the premium version? I cannot figure out why the cameras has stopped transmitting data and says they are offline. I have tried both through my iPad and iPhone. Help much appreciated.
Sorry to hear about that! It shouldn’t be related to Cam Plus but I wouldn’t swear to that without more info. I’d recommend contacting customer support about this issue.
