Unable to Share Camera via YiHome app

Closed this issue · 4 comments

I have two cameras both with YiHack v4 firmware. I still use the yihome app and recently noticed the cameras disappeared after I changed iPhone.

I have reset and repaired the cameras and can use them however other iOS devices cannot see them if I sign in with my account or if I try and share them with another account I get invalid region error.

Could this firmware be stopping this?

previously cameras appeared on all iOS devices with the same account.

I think I was able to see my camera also after installing YI-HACK. Suddenly they disappeared but is still available via local network.

@eximo84 You already checked "private mode" under "Configurations -> General"?

Yes private mode is disabled. The app works for just 1 device fine. Just can’t get the cameras to share or if I login on another device with the same account they don’t appear.

Restored camera back to original firmware. Shared them fine. Then installed latest version of YiHackv4 and sharing remains in tact. Odd.

@eximo84 Sorry, took some time as my microSD really had been broken. Received new card tand switched to project Yi hack M-Star. This project seems to be still active, camera is reachable again and connected to Yi app again.
