How to configure Dreametech vacuum in Home Asisstant?

I have a Dreametech L10s Ultra vacuum that HA recognizes via the Xiaomi Miot Auto integration. I'm trying to add a custom:xiaomi-vacuum-map-card to a dashboard, and the vacuum is recognized but the camera (which I guess is the map) isn't working due to "Invalid calbiration". But the calibration is whatever was automatically set by the card when I chose the vacuum. Hmmm.

I have the camera/map set in configuration.yaml as follows:

 undefined

    
camera:
  - platform: xiaomi_cloud_map_extractor
    host: !secret xiaomi_vacuum_host
    token: !secret xiaomi_vacuum_token
    username: !secret xiaomi_cloud_username
    password: !secret xiaomi_cloud_password
    draw: ['all']
    attributes:
      - calibration_points
      - charger
      - cleaned_rooms
      - country
      - goto_path
      - goto_predicted_path
      - goto
      - ignored_obstacles_with_photo
      - ignored_obstacles
      - image
      - is_empty
      - map_name
      - no_go_areas
      - no_mopping_areas
      - obstacles_with_photo
      - obstacles
      - path
      - room_numbers
      - rooms
      - vacuum_position
      - vacuum_room_name
      - vacuum_room
      - walls
      - zones

This vacuum has not been Valetudo-ed - it's in new condition from the vendor.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

As you mentioned Valetudo: I can highly recommend it! The HA integration is very beautiful too.
- Will the valetudo vacuum card/integration work with an un-valetudo-ed vacuum?
  
  I would assume no since Valetudo has its own API.
  
  I highly doubt it aswell, since valetudo api is running locally. The solutions from the manifacturers always connect to a cloud as far as I am informed. Anyways i never tried any of these "original" solutions as my vacuum was never activated before flashing valetudo. It's one of my fav open source projects since the documentation is sooo good and helpful. If you want to know how I made it or need help > hmu on matrix or here. Greets
  
  I want to flash my vac with Valetudo - my goal is to run-only, no cloud. But I read through Valetudo's instructions and it's too scary for me. I don't think I have the skills to solder a board together and I barely understand all the steps. I can follow instructions, but there's one point where they say something like "do these few steps within 180 seconds or you may brick your vacuum" - that's too much risk for a ~$1000 vacuum. I didn't upgrade the firmware on my vac, so maybe someday the process will be slightly easier and I'll take the risk.
  
  I specifically bought my vacuum as their recommendations say. I have flashed two Dreamee D9, it worked flawless. If you want i'll look into the manual for your's to state if the procediure is the same.
  Edit: just looked it up. I did UART, not Fastboot method (which is required for yours)
  
  Thanks for checking. So I'm still too scared at the moment. :)
