I think upgrading the bootloader with "run da" and Chinese firmware has installed newer bootloader that only accepts signed images so now cannot go back to the English firmware which is at an older firmware.
The Chinese firmware keeps rebooting every 30 seconds or so with:
"sign check error, system reboot"
I assume there is no way to downgrade the bootloader
Made some progress (prob should have done more reading before flashing)
The commands I sent didn't flash all the required sections. I got the images required from the Install file in the extracted files:
"Commands" : [
"burn dhboot.bin.img bootloader",
"burn kernel.img kernel",
"burn partition-x.cramfs.img partition",
"burn romfs-x.squashfs.img rootfs",
"burn pd-x.squashfs.img pd",
"burn user-x.squashfs.img user",
"burn custom-x.squashfs.img custom",
"burn web-x.squashfs.img web"
Then used:
run dk
run dp
run dr
run pd
run du
run dc
run dw
Now camera boots up and doesn't keep resetting. I can also access the web interface finally.
Because I updated the bootloader (big mistake), I take it I am stuck with the Chinese version of firmware now?
