Hi, I've bricked my camera and hoping for some help
It was a DS-2CD2332-I which was running 5.2.0 build 140721. (CH cam from aliexpress with English language).
It had the CBX hack which I thought allowed me to update the firmware. So I tried to update to 5.3.0 build 151016 and am now getting "firmware language mismatch" error preventing me from logging in and accessing the camera.
After reading lots of posts on here, I tried following the
TFTP downgrade procedure
Custom Firmware Downgrader 5.3.0 Chinese to 5.2.5 English but I keep getting errors with TFTP Server.
- PC IP set to 192.0.0.128 mask 255.255.255.0
- Firewall turned off
- Antivirus turned off
- Camera and PC connected to POE switch (other cameras still connected)
- TFTP installed at C:\TFTP-Update
When I run TFTP, the initialisation message appears, then I get a
'connect client failure,0' message until I plug back in the camera, I then get
'Device[192.0.0.64] test tftpserver' message and then it goes back to
'connect client failure,0' and continues to keep giving the same error.
I've tried the digcap.dav file at the start of the thread and have also tried using 5.1.6 and the same messages appear.
Any ideas would be most appreciated.
Cheers
Alex
