Further update, the camera that I was inquiring about early in this post had an interesting issue. It was booting up and complaining that it couldn't bind to anything. With the TTL adapter, I was able to interrupt the boot process and force the brickfix firmware on the camera, after which the...

I just used the TTL connection on my 2CD3132F-IW camera to help recover it. For posterity, the TTL header pinout is: 1. GND (The one with the arrow) 2. Tx 3. Rx 4. 3v (Optional, I didn't use it)

I just used this to recover one of my DS-2CD3132F-IW cameras. Odd thing is the CN version wouldn't install but the EN worked just fine. Overall steps followed: 1. Connected the camera to the same LAN as my workstation (ip: 192.0.0.128/24) 2. Started the TFTP software with the BrickFix540-CN...

It looks like that worked, the camera rebooted automatically after displaying: # no rx packets reboot system. Then it tried to start up normally, displayed this, then gave up and booted into the mini-system: davinci not found and watchdog not initialized! auto reboot system! begin to set enter...

Re-applied as you suggested and it displayed some things I haven't seen.

I grabbed a different camera, attempted to follow the steps from scratch, and had a TTL console connection going so I could see what was happening. So far with this camera, I have successfully applied BrickFix 5.4 EN to the camera, after reboots it reaches out to a TFTP server, however, I can't...

I finally had some time to take another run at this today and I can get one of the cameras (that I am testing a recovery process with) to show up in the Batch Configuration tool. I can sign into the camera with the default password but that is about it. I cannot get the camera to take any of the...

Sorry I was at the t-ball game with my kids, my phone heard access point, all of these cameras are wired. The port that I was running the packet capture on only has one camera plugged into it. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

I have a Cisco Meraki switch that performed a packet capture on the port that the access point was plugged into. With that I was able to see that the access point just shows up as 192.168.1.64, I see no ARP requests, broadcasts, or the UDP traffic you mentioned take place. Sent from my Pixel XL...

I performed a packet capture on my switch for one of my cameras while trying your steps above and on reboot (after waiting 3-4 minutes) the camera does not assign itself 192.0.0.64, it instead assigns itself 192.168.1.64. After doing this it will respond to ping and nothing else. I show no...

With regard to the first sentence above, that is what my camera is currently doing. It has been like this for over 24 hours now. I have tried rebooting it and nothing changes. How do I get the camera on to the last sentence where I can use the TFTP updater? Are you referring to this software?

Waited for ~30 minutes, no SSH or Telnet on the camera. Rebooted the camera, another ~30 minute wait, still no SSH (TCP22), or Telnet (TCP23). Any ideas?

Ah, I just figured out that the camera changed from the old default IP that I was connecting to (192.0.0.64) to a new one (192.168.1.64). Now to get into the camera....

I started the un-brick process and uploaded the first set of firmware to my camera (brickfix540), and now my camera is completely unresponsive. This is the last thing it did and no amount of power cycling has brought it back. NOTE: I waited 30 minutes before pulling the power, the instructions...

Just received a response from HikVision USA, they are washing their hands of my problem. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try?

Since I have 4 bricked cameras I tried this firmware on one of them: "07, DS-2CD3XX2 V5.4.41build170707" http://download.hikvision.com/UploadFile/Soft/IPC/IPC_R0_CN_STD_5.4.41_170707.zip I get this in the HikVision TFTP server: The camera reboots, then it remains offline, waiting for ~30...

The only link I could find was the Chinese version, will that mess up my English version camera? Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

Hey everyone, I messed up and uploaded the wrong firmware to my cameras (DS-2CD3132F-IW) and now can't locate any firmware on HikVision's webpage. I also can't get into their FTP site. Any ideas?

Bump, I really need this password to unbrick my cameras.
