Yes, the annoying bleeps are hard drive missing or not formated, just pop in a drive to stop it.

Restore your origin copy of your mtd5 file, then try again. But you can't do it until you have your firmware on 5.2.3 or low or you will brick.

I recommend reading this threat from post one, it will help.

If you update the checksum as well when modifying the mtd5/mtd6, that works for 2332, I'm not sure if works for 3332. You have to check if the original checksum equals to the analysis - checksum made of highlited area.

First of all you can restore the original mtd5/mtd6 by connecting with USB to RS232/TTL to the camera.

i changed mtd5_temp for 3332,but bricked,tftp methond unwork.
 
So, is there any noticeable performance difference between the 5.1.6 vs. 5.2.5 to make it worth downgrading? I already have all english, so I'm not sure this would be worth my time to reflash the firmware. Any suggestions?
 
As Promised Fully English 5.16 build 140612. No hacking or messing around just TFTP it on

Enjoy.

What is the region of this firmware?
What languages does it support?
Where have you found it? (I have a number of firmwares of this version from different official and unofficial sources and your firmware version does not match any of them.)
In other words how safe is it to be used and in which model of cameras?

Hi this is originally English Region 1, it was the final release of 5.1.6.
I have modded the firmware to allow it to be tftp onto chinese region cameras and applied a few hacks so its full English and only English

Is it safe, well its 5.1.6 I have not fixed any possible security issues, and i haven't added any either.

You can tftp it onto any camera, but if you can't see it in SADP, you will have to reflash backup to 5.2.5
On a region 1 camera it will be English on a Region 2 Camera still English.
 
Did anyone here test the firmware downgrade from "whoslooking" and can give any feedback. Do I have to do it with the TFTP Tool or with the WebGUI?

I´m afraid of downgrading my 5.2.5 china cam without any successstory written here.
