Description

Trying to flash a CE smart Home LA-WF3. Bought it years ago in a two pack. Never used it. The other one in the pack I dismantled and flashed via wire tasmota. Thought I would save myself the hassle and try tuya-convert! No go.

running on rpi4 4gb running 64bit buster lite Raspberry OS

I looked through the logs, nothing stands out to me.

EDIT: Also tried the ap-config method and on another device, a Foseal power bar (that I haven't used in years) with the exact same result.

```
======================================================
Starting smart config pairing procedure
Waiting for the device to install the intermediate firmware
Put device in EZ config mode (blinking fast)
Sending SSID vtrust-flash
Sending wifiPassword
Sending token 00000000
Sending secret 0101
................
SmartConfig complete.
Auto retry in 1s. ...............................................................................................................
Timed out while waiting for the device to (re)connect
======================================================
Attempting to diagnose the issue...
An ESP82xx based device connected according to your wifi log.
If this is the device you are trying to flash, another issue may be preventing it from flashing.
Otherwise, it could be that the device does not use an ESP82xx or it did not connect.
For additional information, check the *.log files inside the scripts folder.
Please include these logs when opening a new issue on our GitHub issue tracker.

Research direction

Review the attached smarthack-udp.log, smarthack-web.log, smarthack-wifi.log, smarthack-mqtt.log, and smarthack-psk.log, beginning with the timeout after SmartConfig. Reproduce the reported tuya-convert flow on the Raspberry Pi setup if possible; done means identifying a reproducible cause or confirming device incompatibility.
