IMI 1080P Home Security Camera Pairing Trouble & Solution

When i buy this camera, i was unable to pair it. I though it need a firmware repair, and i ask the seller, and he/she told me to put my phone 45 degree in front of the camera. But i still unable to let the camera scan the qrcode of the Mi home camera, until i found this solution. I hope this video can also help others who has difficulty on pairing this camera.

[@Detailguy101]

I’m going 2 hours trying this crap, about to smash it. Very dumb set up!!!

[@blackite598]

same here ryt now🤣

[@noabert]

So far I only have one of the 5 up. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe My son ran out of time, with motion detector etc. I have it over my garage door. It works great. Have seen a couple of cats, my dogs, when I am out front. And had a bee buzzing around right in front of it. It works very well. It even shows the neighbour's driveway, but only shows movement just past my own, which is very long. I highly recommend them.

You, my friend is a life saver!!! I tried for hours and then found your video. Saved my life! 😆 Thanks for sharing this valuable tip. 👍👍

[@greenman360]

Modern problems require modern solutions and you nailed this one. This works for any kind of camera, by the way. Blurams was the model giving me trouble, and those fools even use two different pictures... but luckily only one of them was needed. Took a pic, uploaded it to Dropbox, displayed the image on my PC (which has a 52" 4K LCD for the main display) and THAT worked lol.

[@v55evo]

many thanks, i had the same issue , you saved my time !

[@danielguzman8346]

Bravo. I spent 2 days trying to scan it lol. Thank you for the video.

[@natkakonikpl3736]

[@demiseitrofv]

You are brilliant - thank you! 😁

[@natiphotoshop]

you are my hero! I really went crazy that it did not work for me. I'm really surprised it's such a simple solution. Thank you!!

[@cadco_gt5564]

Thank you. After 1 hr of trying to scan it. This final worked

[@elegancy1111]

Thanks a lot ! I was trying for a whole day and finally, watching your video helped!

[@ian-tumulak]

This device went bloke randomly. The only option fix for me: screenshot the QR, saved to google drive, download to my PC, zoom the QR to 100%. In 1 sec it detect the QR. Great device to waste your time troubleshooting.

[@ykhandler3961]

It is all because of the lens focus. You should try to move forward and backward your phone screen toward the camera lens.

[@ian-tumulak]

@@ykhandler3961 Tried that. Did not work.

[@brianreinhardt2714]

Thanks!!!! Finally got this to work using the photo.

[@mikrot-rex747]

[@coradking]

I had the same issue and I used a different phone after I couldn't connect it on the first one and it worked. For some reason the camera couldn't scan the code from the first mobile screen. Hope this helps, good luck!

[@georto]

Thanks i had the same problem. I sent the print screen of the QR to a second device and worked out! Thanks.

[@flavius7589]

[@homermalaluan8680]

Another trick: if you have chromecast, connect/cast your mobile to it and have the Mi camera scan the qr code from your tv. Works for me.

[@azhanmz6948]

Thank so much bro for your idea.. i try your method but did not work for me, but i used laptop to display QR and it succeed

[@blacknet.qwerty]

Finally found the lasting solution
Just whatsapp or share the screenshot of the qr code to other mobile or computer as the camera cannot read or scan the qr code on certain mobile screen

[@ilknur53123]

Thank you. It works !

[@sonalikumar7840]

[@demetermarci]

[@jfelipe885]

I had the same problem and this workaround didn't work for me, I was able to pair the camera with a 10.5" ipad and the camera recognized the QR code easily, after that I just shared the camera configuration with my phone!. Hope it helps

[@kaptnkriechstrom7665]

[@khairazaaa]

Thank you!!! it's really worked!

[@TammyJ7628]

Thank you

[@darebong]

It works for me as well. Thanks alot for the help. But i would suggest those who still having the same issue for not being able to connect it, probably you can snapshot it with bigger display devices such as Tablet or ipad and enlarge the QR code for scanning. With this, it can detect pretty well without needed to find any angle.

[@arinahsalihah_]

You are my hero! Hahaa.. finally successful using your idea. I open the code in my laptop!

[@Ciprianolaurus]

i confirm this. Tried for hours with a samsung s10e without success and when scanning from a larger screen (laptop dispaly) it saw the QR CODE in a second.

[@rolandorodriguez2159]

Si funciona gracias pense que ya habia perdio mi cámara

I lost two hours figuring out what to do.
Screenshot the QR code and BAM! Online again...
Thank you sir!
(And shame on manufacturer :D )

[@teddyboo7843]

I don’t have this camera but I took a snap shot of the barcode and the camera recognised it better than the wifi one.

[@boidey]

Here a solution. Take a screenshot of the QR code. Send it to your PC. Open the image and zoom in. There you go, paired in matter of seconds!

[@Blockdigit]

Did just that. Thanks bro
