How to hack 5.1.2 firmware on China region cameras to English

[CBX]

They do make International and Chinese versions of firmware, but in practice this tends to be the same file with a regional restriction set.

The cameras are also made with regional restriction (but are the same physically).

Regional restriction tends to mean incompatibility with devices from a different region (IPC <> NVR or iVMS for example), and languages may not be English etc.

This can be overcome with hacks or my regional code changer product.

so basically you are saying if I get hikvision cameras I should get a hikvision NVR and it will be English on all firmware as they are from same company? but if I mix it with another NVR from another company like Samsung it will be Chinese displays??

 

[CBX]

No.

I am saying Hikvision IPC and Hikvision NVR needs to be same region (International region or Chinese region).

If they are different regions they usually will not talk to each other.

Also, if they are Chinese region usually English is not present.

Hacks or region change can overcome these issues if needed.

ok I get it.

Thanks for this info. I too came to the same conclusion. I went ahead and reverted back to 5.1.6 until smarter people then me can figure out 5.2.0.

This fixes it (apart from OSD):

What are the login credentials for the Chinese FTP site of HIK Vision?

That's not a site I've accessed - what's the URL?
There may be a faint chance it's the same as the USA FTP site: ftp://hikvisionusa.com/
hikfirmware / Hikvision123

They released a 5.17?
Wonder if it's missing the extra fields in Traversing Virtual Plane Detection...

without protected Shell can

What I've done in the NVR, where firmware 3.2.1 and higher also does not have telnet access, and also has the 'protected shell' is to rename 'psh' and add a new symlink to busybox for 'sh', and also add 'telnet' to startup.sh
*edit* Oops - I meant 'psh' not "add a new symlink to busybox for 'sh'"
Busybox can also be replaced with an updated version that has many more command available.

For your firmware, does this match:

Unfortunately, this version works on the Great Camera

[alastairstevenson]

Please explain some more why that 5.2.0 version is not suitable for your camera.
Have you tried and does it give an error?

 

[csm]

Unfortunately, this does not concern the EN version 5.2.0.
It starts the camera no longer thereafter.
There are all LEDs.
Telnet u.s.w. does not work either.
