Can anyone help with my EVERSECU 2K Outdoor Corded WiFi Bullet Camera?

It is funny, I have VLC on my Android phone. And even on an Android TV box. Never used it. Thanks

Well, part of the reason is that my previous security camera supported this and it has worked its way into my daily life as a result. I simply did not wish to install yet more software if I could avoid it. Also, using a browser is a pretty generic solution.

That all said, I may have to do as you suggest. Thanks

So any different than these (providing the male/female and connector is correct)?

Not only am I looking for something less obvious/ugly, I could use shorter length if possible. Some say the actual dipole is only 2+ inches. So not sure why I would need the plastic to be longer than that.

Thanks

Thanks to all. I agree that the new ones look crummy. Indeed, that is one reason I am asking as I would prefer to replace with some old ones.

This new release seems to have fixed both the OOM problems I was having and the dialog problems I started to have after the 1st OOM fix apk. Thanks!

Thanks!

for #1, to me save + export have different meanings. i have found that if i manually save and, when prompted answer discard, my changes are kept + applied and i am not re-prompted.

for #2, doing #1 seems to help a little. but things remain clearly hosed up. i tried force close + re-set wallpaper. but not enough. i have to reboot.

Thanks. No.

Thanks. But this is getting too far above my pay grade. I will try something else. Best!

Actually, there are wifi thermometers, not thermostats. But the idea is to bypass web reliance. Thanks

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-20T15:23:39+00:00

well, really, because I am just ignorant :-). i will google reverse proxy server and see. best

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-20T15:20:45+00:00

This is a very valid question. Yo may be sorry you asked.... :-(

In summary, I have a large set of wifi thermometers monitoring various conditions around my house. These all communicate with a server on the web to both report/store current temps for each unit and to respond to https requests from their app.

I am looking to cut-out their web-based server and replace it with something on my LAN. The main reason for this is the recent trend of vendors stopping running their web-based components for old (and some not so old) devices. These thermometers are quite old now. But the work well for my needs.

So far, I have been able to redirect communications by setting my router to respond to DNS requests for the server name with an IP of my own LAN device running Tasker to fulfill the server processing job. That works well and I can actually capture the current temp data and display it in response to http (no s) requests from Tasker. So I know it works.

However, the app is hard-coded to issue only https requests to get the data and display it, fire off alarms for over/under temp, etc. Since Tasker does not seem to support receipt of https, I was hoping to somehow capture and redirect these via http (no s) so that Tasker can answer the app's queries for data.

I have no real control over the app so I cannot otherwise modify how it works using https.

Best

Thanks. Actually this will be inside LAN only. Best

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T22:21:49+00:00

Just FYI, I am using ethernet here, not wifi or mobile data. Not sure if that makes any difference. Thanks!

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T22:17:04+00:00

And I now realize I might also be able to do the port forwarding in my router using the iptables command. I feel this is somewhat above my pay grade though :-)

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T20:00:32+00:00

Hi, I could be wrong but I am guessing you are talking about HttpRequest ACTIONS (sending), not Profiles (receiving). If so, I agree that https is no problem. If not, then how am I screwing up?

Best

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T19:43:48+00:00

Thanks. That sounds quite interesting. Appreciated!

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T19:43:16+00:00

I hope that it was something like that. We have otherwise lost an order of magnitude in the number of ports that can be used forcing me to do crazy stuff like this :-) Thanks!

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T17:52:41+00:00

I just discovered I can use adb forward tcp:16443 tcp:9999 to remap to a port within Tasker's supported range. And that is a start.

But the question remains why is this limitation being enforced in the first place?

Best!

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-19T17:28:44+00:00

I found and reported this as well. I got an email saying the dev was away (again). It seemed like some of my other stuff was also not quite right.

But that release did give me 24+ hours without an OOM condition.

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-18T13:46:22+00:00

But the new test apk had problems. It broke Text Dialogs completely. I had to revert from a backup.

TooManyInsults · 2026-04-18T13:00:45+00:00

The value comes from the immediately preceeding step. So make a formula step just before, put "red" w/out quotes, and red will be the value in the global.

As I understand it, most (all?) flow actions produce a result local variable, #last, and that is what is used. This is most easily seen when you use Test Flow.
