Camera bricked after region changer hack *RECOVERED*
II followed all the steps exactly as listed in the other thred and my camera is bricked now. It appears TFTP method still works as I was able to re-upload firmware, but I can't ping the camera or see it with hik tools. The camera had hacked 5.2.0 firmware. Is there steps how to de-brick it with UART? I opened the cam and I see there is a port where to plug it in, but not sure what I need to buy for it and couldn't find anything on the actual procedure. Any help appreciated.
EDIT: Resolved!
