Model: Tapo C225  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.11

I just got the tapo c225. It came with firmware version 1.0.4_Build_230901_Rel.66926n. I was able to integrate it in home assistant using Tapo: Camer Control integration.

It signaled a new firmware is available, I updated to 1.0.11 and now I can't integrate it anymore. it fails when i input the same cloud password.

Please help me downgrade the firmware to the previous version installed because I do not want to brick it while downgrading it via the microSD card - I did it already with a C210 that I use as a paperweight now...

I need the Home assistant integration to work so I can be able to turn on/off the privacy feature via automation.

 

Thank you in advance!

Hi,
Typically, it's unable to downgrade the firmware of the camera. The new firmware of the Tapo C225 adds changes to protect product and user information security. Since there is no official collaboration with Home Assistant, there have been no changes or designs made to the camera specifically to adapt to Home Assistant. 

 

However, our camera supports RTSP/ONVIF protocols, and you can still watch the camera's live feed through RTSP/ONVIF on Home Assistant.
