In this camera, there's a reset button located on the upper left side of the QR code. You need to use a pin or thin needle to reach the button. There are two different versions of the Yi camera so you just need to make sure which one you are using to locate the camera's reset button. Nothing to suggest because I had exactly the same experience. It seems that the camera is permanently bricked.
Yeah I read that from your post that you deleted it. As I mentioned for future reference it’s best to delete the camera from the app first then attempt to set it up as new and wait for the app to ask for it resetting. I’ve done this on many cameras many times and it works every time.
Download the correct firmware version on your computer (your laptop/computer must have an SD card reader) . My friend please check out this support article to update manually the firmware. But I’d be tempted just to wait it out a little. Could you check that you are connecting to the 2.4ghz wifi network only please.

SD card was MSDOSFAT32 formatted, there are no file extensions in the filenames, I reset the camera a couple of times,… So I’m out of ideas of what I can do now. I’ve also attempted for first downgrade to an earler stock firmware but also there no success. I’ve restarted the device several times, reset several times, tried different firmwares , tried different names of the firmware files on the SD. Don't have time to watch lengthy security footage?

Additionally after i put in the sd card with the firmware, it will flash orange for a little whilte then turn solid orange again. I leave it like that and still it doesnt flash anymore and still no voice. Place your YI Home camera anywhere in your home and monitor activity at your fingertips.
