Problem:
While trying to flash a device using tuya-convert, you see an error message like
====================================================== 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. Resending SmartConfig Packets ................. SmartConfig complete. Resending SmartConfig Packets ................. SmartConfig complete.

Timed out while waiting for the device to (re)connect
and the flash procedure fails.
Solution:
You can see the actual error log in scripts/smarthack-psk.log. In my case the error was the one described in our previous post How I fixed tuya-convert Nous A1 could not establish sslpsk socket: [SSL: NO_SHARED_CIPHER] no shared cipher
The current version of ./install_reqs.sh does not install the sslpsk module correctly (the error message is somewhat hidden at the top of the log). Install it manually using
sudo -H python3 -m pip install --upgrade sslpsk
