yes that's exactly what I did but I dont see 5.4.5 available for download on the Hikvision US website. I'm looking here Firmware and the latest version says Archived Firmware: IPC -DS-2xx2_5.4.0_160530. Do you know anywhere else I would get that 5.4.5 version? thanks so much for the help
I'm afraid to flash firmware again, I dont really understand why it was bricked in the first place when I first flashed the firmware. HIKVISION says my camera is gray market so I assume thats why the firmware breaks it. Now that it's operational on version 5.4.0, i'm hesitant to do anything to...
Thank you so much! I was doubtful this work work, I was a little confused with the HEX editor part but I was able to successfully "unbrick" model 2cd2632f-is and flash it with 5.4.0.
