Wyze app Android Hotfix #2 - 8/8/2023

Updated to the Hotfix #2 and the issue @StevenA references above is still present as I reported in 2.44 Production Release and in 2.44 Hotfix #1.

However, I am not reverting as I believe I have stumbled across and isolated the source of the problem. I need other Android users who have the VDBv1 to test and confirm. The source of the problem is with viewing the VDBv1 in Group view and then moving to view other groups.

After updating, I loaded every one of my 8 cam groups, all with 2 or 3 cams each, over and over and over again. Probably 15 to 20 times each and I couldn’t replicate it. Once the live streams were loaded in group view the first time, the V3, PanV3, and V3Pro cams never needed to reload the stream when returning to group view. It is almost as if the app is maintaining all those P2P sessions in the background while viewing other groups. They instantaneously appeared and we’re streaming without the “Loading Live Stream” bouncing balls. This is awesome! Only the OG cams and the FLP Cams had the “Loading Live Stream” reload every time. But, all cams loaded 100% of the time.

But, that’s when I remembered that I had not regrouped my VDBv1 which is not supported in group view in 2.43. I placed the VDBv1 into a group and loaded that group view. The VDBv1 loaded and showed the live stream in the group view.

However, every group I load after the group with the VDBv1 in it returned the same Error 20 on the V3 and PanV3 cams.

I cleared the cache and restarted the app and speed loaded all my groups again, avoiding the group with the VDBv1. Same results. 100% load success. Then I loaded the mixed cam group with the VDBv1. It loaded. I went back to the other groups and Error 20 returned. I can reproduce this every time.

The loading of the VDBv1 in Group Live Stream view is causing the app to change such that it will no longer reload the V3 and PanV3 groups after that and results in Error 20. Perhaps this is due to how the VDBv1 P2P session being established and maintained when loaded in group view? It may also be why the OG and FLP live streams in groups wasn’t affected. Differences in P2P protocols? This also explains why in the previous two App releases I only experienced the problem after loading the first couple of groups. I did not realize that it was immediately after the mixed cam VDBv1 group that the problem started.

I am not reverting back this time but will be taking the VDBv1 back out of the group until this is fixed.
