Support for Xiaomis new Arlo-clone CMSXJ11A?

I’m now on the chuangmi-hub-E7D1 net. Nmap returns this:

#nmap 10.17.1.1

Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2020-08-21 16:44 CEST
Nmap scan report for hodor.lan (10.17.1.1)
Host is up (0.0010s latency).
Not shown: 997 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
53/tcp open domain
80/tcp open http
8000/tcp open http-alt

So, no luck yet… Regarding making jffs2 changes seems very risky since there seem to be many more files… At least the two above:

fs_107/etc/config/system: option model debug
fs_9/.system.uci-YE9eL1: option model ‘release’

So, I guess, somehow, the second one disables telnet since model is in release mode… I’m kind of stuck right now. I still wonder how comes that you can access the gw via telnet, since we seem to have same fw version (at least given their fw naming) and you are in release mode (i.e. led is solid blue).

I knew about the system.product.model from studying the rootfs (not the overlay)…

Edit: well, at least I have a dumb ap. I’m posting this while being over the chuangmi “bridge”…

my telnet was working since the begining (before 1st mi home connection) and i made sure it stays that way even after i connected it to the cloud.

Blockquote and i made sure it stays that way even after i connected it to the cloud.

Well, how did you make sure ?

Edit: I cannot post anymore since I’ve just joined in. Anyhow, I, managed to mount mtd6 (jffs2) on gw itself in failsafe mode. What should I modify ?

i would copy rootfs/etc/init.d/test-hub to overlay/etc/init.d/test-hub and comment out model checks in the script so telnetd always starts.

Gothca !!! I have telnet in normal mode. Huh.

Trick is mount on gw itself overlay partition:
#mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock6 /overlay

#cd /overlay/etc/config/

#sed -i ‘s/release/debug/’ system

#umount /overlay

#reboot

After this, do not press ‘f’ (enter failsafe mode over serial-to-usb), just wait for the blue, solid led. Then, login on gw wifi ap with the password extracted from the extracted overlay (see above post). Finally:

telnet 10.17.1.1, use root:admin.

===

Great, let’s now get this useful for hassio. @razmus: any progress here using mosquitto ?

Edit: Also the external gw ip is reachable by telnet, so this is done.

Hello it’s a very good news and wait more information.

Thanks

what is a very good news?

I have read the whole post and find it a good step forward for the hack of this camera even if it is not yet certain there is good news

Hello, Is it possible connect camera to HomeAssistant ? Can you provide steps and tools ? Thanks

Hi Weijers,

Is there any update on this topic? I also use this type of camera system and would love to integrate it. thx

In the absense of any real posts since last August, it is not looking hopeful.

Hi Hasshun,

No updates that I have seen. @jandy and @rezmus are the initiators to perhaps make something work.
@AlexxIT was amazing in his work on the ZNDMWG03LM Gateway. Maybe on the gateway for this CMSXJ11A something can be done?

Hopefully there will be some updates long the way.
Until then, stay safe!

Hey all, nice discussion, too bad that the topic is dead. Purchased 2 IMILAB EC2 (Global version, works in any region) cameras with gateway for purpuse of monitoring front and back of multi apartment building without the need of a wired connection. Works ok, battery needs to be charged about once a week, since its huge traffic outside. But it would be nice to get at least rtsp link in order to make Zone detection. This way battery will last about the same but with more features.

Topic is not dead

I tried to use that, but I seems it adds the gateway (chuangmi.gateway.ipc011) but after that there are no devices or entities added.
Let me know if anyone succeeded.

i ’ ve tryed, the integration sees the gateway via cloud, but nothing is added as device (neither the gw itself).
