    Lorex W452AS Floodlight cam & other Dahua LincX2PRO devices (L46N Floodlight cam, etc) SD Card method

    I bought a W452AS floodlight. So I figured out on the Dahua WIKI that the Dahua Wifi LincX2PRO line including the L46 floodlight uses the SD card for it's firmware recovery trick instead of TFTP.

    As to not brick beyond our current knowledge I highly suggest he puts the rca firmware on his rca vdb then watch serial as he does a partial reset as well as a full reset to see what both erase if anything.

    This camera could be a ezviz camera which means it has a ezviz bootblock it’s looking for ezviz.dav firmware file to recover the bad firmware would be nice to know if other brands are looking for ezviz or a different file. They all might in fact look for the same file.
