    Annke Firmware update

    Whatever man... I was able to get a firmware update from Annke after opening a support ticket. Going from 3.4.97 to V4.30.010 build 210511 Signal looks better, interface improved, and hopefully crashes stop. Didnt add HTML5 support for the video, but I've already made peace with that. They...

    Annke Firmware update

    Re-read above about my reboot issue. Are you some kind of Annke apologist? I dont care what you guys do with your cameras. If you choose to accept such poor product support, that's on you. There is no reason a firmware update should fail if done properly and no reason firmware should behave...

    Annke Firmware update

    I wrote Annke support asking for the latest version numbers for the N48PAW and I91BF and they write back asking what the problem is. Bunch of clowns. The problem is that they dont maintain a reliable repository of firmware and no change log to speak of. So sad their product is closest to what...

    Annke Firmware update

    It is August 2022 and I am still stuck on the same firmware for all C800 cameras and N48PAW NVR.

    This unit has no fan and resides in my air conditioned house.

    Annke Firmware update

    I am in the same boat. Same N48PAW with 3.4.97 firmware. Downloaded the v4.30.010 firmware from Annke.com. My DVR has no internet connection by design. The Update button is useless as expected. Trying to update from the maintenance page just give a "Failed to get upgrade progress" error. I...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Welp... I am about to fling this mother hucker into the trash... I tried setting the MTD1 to 01 and it worked... until I rebooted and it went back to the mini-system. I got it up to v5.3.0 and then v5.4.0 direct from the raptor 5.2.5. I would have tried to overwrite the MTD1 and MTD6 again...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    I gave your 5.2.5 a shot and got the same results. It goes in to 5.2.5 ok, but anything above that just puts the camera in mini-system mode.

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    I must be unlucky... I copied the original MTD5 back on and re-tried 5.4.41 again just to see if that was it. Nope! Back to the mini-system. So I go back to v5.2.5_raptor, get things working, then try v5.3.0 from your link. Nope! Back to the mini-system. So now I am back at v5.2.5_raptor and...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Yes, I am already back to v5.2.5_raptor and everything works again. When it bricks, it does go back to 4.0.8 in SADP. I will put the original MTD5 back on. So do I need to find an EN v5.3.0, v5.4.0, and load those first before trying the v5.4.41 and v5.4.5?

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Well... not fully there yet. I modified Block1, and 5 per your recommendations. When it came to Block6 I was confused by the checksum, so I followed steps 12-15 in MarkB's post in the DS-2CD2x32-I thread. I put in the correct hex for my dev type (14 98) and then put in the checksum for 09-FC in...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    In the shell, both report devType = 38932 (Hex: 9814 or 1498 in proper byte order) The sticker on the back does show v5.2.8 so I will assume thats what was the hacked version there before my initial 5.4.41 update. I will check MTD1. Here's what the firmware package had to say about updates...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Your patience is seemingly limitless, Mr. Alastair. Thanks for all your efforts. I am reading the instructions for the brick-fix and I'm not sure thats where I need to be. I have already un-bricked my cameras using the "Raptor_2_520_f_10_14_c.dav" file. Both cameras, which had the EN 5.4.41...

    Hikvision FIRMWARE TOOLS - change language, extract files and create own firmware

    Wow... what kind of fresh hell have I stepped into? I have a pair of old DS-2CD2532F-IS cameras that have been running un-modified since purchase. I just picked up another one off eBay along with a DS-2CD2542FWD-IS to add to my coverage. I check Hikvision out of curiosity to see if there is new...
