Ge0rG on Nostr: In a moment of despair, I "downgraded" my Samsung WB31F camera from firmware 1411221 ...
In a moment of despair, I "downgraded" my Samsung WB31F camera from firmware 1411221 to the only still available firmware 1310151 meant for the WB30F predecessor model. The 2013 firmwares generally have better support for samsung-nx-emailservice regarding their degenerated hotspot detection, so my hope was to a) not brick the camera and b) make it work with my API reimplementation.
AND IT WORKED!!!
