Problem
When I try to update the firmware for Wyze Duo Cam Doorbell, it fails.
Troubleshooting
-
Confirm that your Wyze app is up to date.
- In your Wyze app, navigate to the Account tab > tap About.
- Your current app version will be listed beneath the Wyze logo.
- Compare your app version to the latest app version listed on our Release Notes & Firmware page.
- If you find that your Wyze app is out of date, head over to your mobile device’s app store, and update the Wyze app.
-
If your doorbell is battery-powered, make sure the battery pack is fully charged.
- If the battery pack is fully charged, both status lights should be solid green.
- Note: The battery level must be above 20% in order to do a firmware update. If the battery level is too low, you will receive a pop-up to charge the doorbell.
- If there is a microSD card inserted, remove it and attempt the firmware update again.
-
Ensure that Wyze Duo Cam Doorbell has a good signal strength.
- You can check this in the Wyze app by going to the doorbell’s settings > Device Info > Signal Strength.
- If it has 2 bars or less, try moving the router closer to the doorbell.
- If possible, make sure the doorbell, phone/tablet, and router are close together (within 6-10 feet) during the update.
- Reboot the router.
-
Restart Wyze Duo Cam Doorbell.
- Navigate to the doorbell’s settings > Restart Camera > tap Restart.
-
Power cycle Wyze Duo Cam Doorbell.
- If battery-powered: Remove the battery pack completely for 10 seconds, then place it back into the doorbell, ensuring it is seated firmly.
- If hardwired: Flip the breaker that is powering the doorbell to the off position, wait 10 full seconds, then flip the breaker back to the on position.
-
Factory reset Wyze Duo Cam Doorbell.
- Remove any microSD card inserted into the doorbell.
-
Press and hold the RESET button on the back of the doorbell for 5 seconds or until the voice prompt sounds.
- To access the RESET button, you will need to use the doorbell detaching pin to remove the back plate from the doorbell.
- Once the status light is flashing red, set up the doorbell like new.
