No Live Preview Blink Camera Fixed!!! But how

Okay so I’m not crazy…. And I’m not the only one.

Im even having this problem with the new blink 4 cameras.

I know so many people having issues with live view and live view preview on the home page. I think this must be an issue with Blink. It's not a mistake that people are making at setup or install. It either works right out of the box or it does not. I'm going to play with my unit for another 2 to 3 days then return it if I can't get it working. Such a shame. A nice little setup otherwise.

I think Blink new software update, that was just done today, is the issue now with camera not working

I thought it was just me! I’m having the exact same issues, but I don’t even have the little live view or camera icons on my camera screen. I’ve done so many things like you to try and figure this out! I’ll try changing the cameras. Thx!

Did he even explain what he did

That's too bad. Fortunately my notifications are pretty quick and accurate. My issue is that it starts at the exact time is has motion and i wish it would add a few seconds to the playback before the motion detection

The biggest thing I have against Blink is the motion notification I’ve talk to them and they don’t seem to care

Thank you so much got this system just today and 1 camera out of 5 was buffering. I will try this and see if it works God bless you for sharing.

Response is coming from India.

Blink is a scam want you to pay monthly fees

Hello. Do I need a sync madule. To Work the live view. ?

Interesting. The only thing I can think of is that the batteries are getting low on the older cameras that put them below some threshold Blink has established in their software for live view, and then, by moving them around, you jostled the insides of the batteries just enough to give them a little more life. So if they stop working again, I'd say replace the batteries (if that isn't the first thing you did, of course). ...PS also from the 60s, but done with that. Last place I want to go to...

Blink cameras are so SLOW !!!! 🤦🏽‍♂️

Just bought the blink doorbell
I can’t figure out how to go live with camera
Plus alerts not ringing me on the phone
How to fix?

Here is an easy fix. I had the same problem. I deleted the sync module and added it back and simply took the batteries out of the camera and put them back in. Problem solved.

Whata a legacy account? If my cameras arent showing on the app, its just blank..does that mean my cameras are disabled?

i am also having the same issue as you had i also contacted support (correct) complete delay on there part still waiting for response i reset everything and bought a new cam and still did not work i returned the camera , i am grandfathered in paying no fees like you i am going to bring cam from another location like u did and see what happens i have 9 cam out side 5 inside !!!

I think Blink is screwing around with people who don't subscribe, as soon as my trial period was finished, suddenly I began to get an error message which says " Manifest Stale, please re-request" I can't get the cameras to record and I can't retrieve any clips I have on my Module 2 usb flash drive. 🤬

Thanks for the vid. I have new (reburb by Amazon) Blink system with just two cameras set up now. Both worked great for a week. Last night one of the cameras went down exactly as yours did. Today I started my detective work. Just as your tests, nothing worked until I brought the camera in the house. Long story short, the range from that camera to the sync module has been cut in half. Still works fine just from not nearly as far away. I checked battery voltage and it had only dropped .1vdc, but changed them anyway with zero improvement. Wonder if you had the same issue and when you switched locations you brought the bad camera closer to the module? My other camera that works fine is much further away buy I am going to try the switch.***Just did the switch and the broke camera works and the working one does not. If seems for some reason in the middle of the night with no changes to anything, the Blink system no longer likes the position the camera was in. It appears this Blink system is going to be a pain to keep going.

having same issue with those things

Fantastic video. Very informative

When you say that you switched cameras does that mean you switched them physically only , physically and renamed them or took the batteries out deleted the cameras and started from scratch and switched them ? Ty in advance 😊

I think the new has worn off from Blink. They have grown a lot so service now has issues. I am probably gonna have to do something different.

My live view has stopped working for some reason. I am currently out of town so it is so disappointing.

Thx for the Video. I really appreciate your suggestions. I had the same problem as you, so I moved my Hub closer to my WiFi router and switched my cameras, and they started working as expected.
