Hikvis DS-7608N-E2/8P - Bricked after firmware update

Hi Guys

made a bit more progress,

i used the firmware V3.0.8 build140825 Multi-lingual and used hiktools05r1 to change the language. Its now finally english, however the device thinks its a DS-7116n-sn ( according to the config menu on the nvr) i also cant see any of the cameras

im guessing i now need to change it to a DS-7608N-E2/8P.

please can you also confirm what the default password is once flashed?

Thanks
 
OK, so the NVR has been unbricked. That's good.
When you log in via the web GUI, what model does the system information show?
The 3.0.5 and 3.0.8 firmware should have a 'telnet enable' option in the menus - I forget exactly where, under network I think.
If you enable telnet, and log in with PuTTY or similar as 'root' with your admin password, what does
cat /proc/hkvs/bootpara
show?


Hi
When i log onto the gui web page (192.168.1.2) the model is shown as DS-7116N-SN
sorry, but i do not know what you mean but the rest of the comments

when logged directly onto the nvr
the model is DS-7116N-SN
firmware v3.0.8 build 140825
encoding version v5.0 build 140816
 
sorry, but i do not know what you mean but the rest of the comments
If you can find the option in the web GUI to enable telnet access, then at the telnet prompt:
You will need a program that can do telnet. Windows can, but you have to enable it as on option. PuTTY is a popular program that can do telnet, SSH and more.
Log in as 'root' using your admin password, maybe still at the default '12345'
Then the command
cat /proc/hkvs/bootpara
will give you the hardware information about the NVR.
It's strange that it now appears as a 7116N-SN
I'm wondering if the seller has messed with it to make it appear as a different model.
 
It's not a 7116 then. The text with model number is in English, the other text says Hikvision in Chinese.


Hi All

the supplier where i purchased the nvr finally got back to me today, he providedme with a firmware update. According to the device info page its

Model DS-7608N-E2/8P
Firmware 3.3.4 Build 150616

It does not solve the TLS encryption issue, however I’m glad that it’s now inworking order.


Thanks to Del Boy and Alastairstevenson

Please share to help people with same issue later.

[h=2][FONT=微软雅黑]I so far have downloaded the firmware as suggested by Del Boy DS-78、79N-EX系列支持萤石云程序包[/FONT][/h]Thie firmware is from the Chinese Hikvision site

You might want to change your EZVIZ 6 digit password, just in case, since you posted it on that picture.
 
Hello all. I need help.

Ran into same problem as OP. Bought DS-7608N-E2/8P on eBay, mistakenly for DS-7608NI-E2/8P and upgrade the firmware using DS-7608NI-E2/8P firmware.
Now it boot, beep, reboot.
Tried using the the hitesh files. Started the TFTP server but it stuck at "TFTP server[192.0.0.128] initialized". The NVR continues to boot, beep, reboot without getting the firmware from the TFTP.

Help, I'm stuck.
 
upgrade the firmware using DS-7608NI-E2/8P firmware.
What was the source of the firmware?
Do you have a note of the serial number of the NVR?

"TFTP server[192.0.0.128] initialized".
When you started tftpserve.exe did you get a Windows pop-up about Windows firewall blocking parts of the program? Clicking OK is required to allow inbound access to the program.
Just to be sure, check your Windows firewall shows inbound allow rules for tftpserve.exe

Also - the PC should be on a wired, not wireless connection, with the PC and NVR wired as normal to the LAN.
 
Its been a few months but I don't think you use the Hitesh files until it's up and running in Chinese. Make sure you completely shut it down after running the TFTP software.

@ work. I have to get home for the serial #. The seller just sent me a firmware.
It is a wired connection directly from PC to NVR. OK on the firewall pop up window.
I tried PC. I tried laptop. Both stuck at "TFTP server[192.0.0.128] initialized".
The problem is the TFTP is not connecting with the NVR. It seems there's not enough time for the connection before it's reboot.

I tried the Chinese firmware also. The problem is the TFTP is not connecting with the NVR. It seems there's not enough time for the connection before it's reboot.
