Hi

 

I got 5 different models of tapo cams all were updated to last firmware update but just c120 occured a problem during upgrade and now bricked 

 

Only red light blinking with some weird sound 

 

Won't reset or do anything else.

 

What should i do now?

Hi,
Typically, the Tapo C120 will recover on its own after you try the steps in Case 2 in the instructions

If those steps do not work, it's recommended to contact your retailer or the local support team to check if your camera is under warranty.

Best Regards

Hi,  
Is there a power outage to the Tapo C120 during firmware updating? If not, you can refer to Case 2 in the following instructions to troubleshoot.
What to do if my Tapo Camera gets bricked after a firmware update?
Best Regards
