Have you tired to put in a fresh set of batteries?  Have had issues below 40% of fimweare not wanting to update.

Mmtremblay75,

 

Have you tried to manually update the firmware after removing & re-inserting the batteries? You can check this by going to Devices > 3 Dots > Device Settings > Device Info > Firmware

Hi there

If you have not figured out the solution to your problem, then this process that I am about to explain might help you.

I am setting up 5 cameras for the first time. Kept running into the same issue that you are having.

Hopefully this will help you.

When I initially set the system up I had done it using a computer. It said everything was up to date.

I started to use the mobile app and it said all the cameras needed to be updated.

For this procedure I used the mobile app instead of the computer.

It should also be noted that I used this steps on one camera at a time.

 

1: I removed the cameras as well as the base from my account

2: I added the base

3: I went through the procedures of adding a camera to the base. To the letter!!! 

4: After the camera was added, I went to the device list and then pressed the gear symbol to take me that          camera's settings.

5: Once there I turned the camera off.

6: I then went to the Device Info setting.

7: Once there I hit the firmware section where it said update and waited till the camera was fully updated.

8: Once the quick blue flashes on the camera was done, I turned it back on then named the device.

 

Once one camera was done I went to the next camera until all were finished and completely updated. 

I hope this process helps you out.
