    Hello, I was wondering if there are any examples of new firmware for Tuya cameras.

    I see in the "Action" store 3 camera models that are very affordable: LSC Smart Connect IP camera box with visible price of 19.95 euros.

    LSC Smart Connect rotatable camera 1080p HD packaging.

    If it is interesting for more people on this forum, I could purchase and try...

    Let me know what you think

    I haven't seen anything related to upgrading those cameras, we would need to make a teardown of one first. It depends on which chip is used inside, etc. Still, I have been working on making one other camera model cloudfree with @DeDaMrAz but it really required some Linux knowledge, many attempts and luck. It's really hard to say more without knowing how that Action camera is build.
    Helpful post? Buy me a coffee.

    I purchased the indoor IP camera Packaging of an indoor IP camera with a phone app.

    And it was simple to open. ..... Interior of an IP camera showing a PCB with components.

    I was hoping to find a little sub PCB as I found in the LS9a power plug, but this is a different item. I checked out the components on the PCB and came to the following set:

    FH8626V100: 1080P IP Camera SoC

    On the PCB, I see possibly some connection to flash the system... However, I am currently completely in the dark as to how to get into this system and modify or recreate some firmware

    I would very much appreciate some help or suggestions as to how I (we) could proceed
