Fyi for anyone interested, lightning deal at Amazon right now for the db1c at $56 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CXMJJC3/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_dl_5R8XCG5SMTTZAX8N7WKY

replying to myself here as I have a few updates on issues I've had: FYI, I powered it down this morning (flipped the breaker for an hour) and upon reboot, it's no longer pink! No idea what caused it.... I ended up putting in a warranty repair request with RCA (VOXX) and after sending it in...

has anyone else ever run into an issue where suddenly their video has a pink hue? woke up one morning to check a motion alert and since then, everything has a pink hue, weird huh?

I don't understand how I'd use the TFPT tool to copy off the original firmware. The only info about using that tool is about auto updating the firmware, but at that point, the firmware would be overwritten w/the new one, no?

Wow, already received my EZVIZ doorbell (ordered it two days ago via adorama on ebay!) - everything looks new except for a slight scratch on the back where the screw terminals are for power, but hooked it up and it's working fine! Now onto attempting a firmware upgrade again (I necessarily...

tried placing the laview firmware (renamed to digicap.dav) at the root of a freshly reformatted fat32 sd card on my bricked RCA and still no luck, still red ring of death :( (therefore, I ordered an open box excellent condition ezviz db1 from ebay via adorama and it arrives next week, hopefully...

unfortunately, these doorbell cams are wifi only -- no hard wire internet/data connections (thus, TFP won't help for bricked ones)

Nah, haven't tried other firmwares, but I'll give that a go in the morning and will report back! And nope, don't see any network broadcast from it, that's actually how I knew something was wrong before I knew the solid red meant bricked

Is there anyway to force the internal battery to run down faster? I'd like to keep messing with my bricked RCA, but taking 30+ min for it to actually power off once turning off the breaker is a bit rough

ahh I'm bricked! I recently bought a RCA DB2, was on RCA firmware (Jan 30, 2019) Build 190124 and it worked great. Then, using batch config, tried upgrading to Nelly's (Nov. 22, 2019) Build 190625 (ONVIF Support). Batch config showed it 100% completed, only to find that the bell is now at the...
