Description from the creator

Steps to fix it.

1. Turn on the camera and hold down the reset button for 6-8 seconds

2. Turn off the camera

3. Insert the memory card

4. Turn on the camera and wait for about 5 minutes
(will flash orange, then turn orange, then speak Chinese and then will flash orange)

5. Connect the camera via the camera app

Memory card
1. format the sd in FAT32
2. extract and copy the firmware file (a file called 'home') to the memory card root folder

Firmware used in this example 1.8.5.1K_201508311131 (Download at xiaoyi.querex.be/1.8.5.1K_201508311131.rar)

If your camera is unable to be flashed to 1.8.5.1K, you might need to flash to an older version and flash it back up to the last available working version. (so you will need to flash it twice)
Download and flash the two firmwares in the following order.
Updated: 28 April 2017
1.8.5.1B (mediafire.com/file/bhi9699q1zg1zr5/1.8.5.1B_201…)
1.8.6.1B (sites.google.com/a/mobileai.tw/download/file/1.…?)

When pairing with your WiFi, please do not connect to a 5GHz WiFi Band as older versions of the camera does not support it. You will get a password error message when you try to connect to 5GHz Band
