Hmmm. @tangent, what was the file name (or firmware version) of the file that Andy removed from the first post of this thread?
I bought three IPC-HDBW4231FP-AS cameras from Andy recently, all having different firmware version numbers. I got one in December that had the V2.622.0000000.23.R (2018-03-30 build date) firmware, and two that I received Wednesday. One of those has a V2.622.0000000.31.R (2018-08-13 build date) firmware and the other has V2.800.0000000.0.R (2018-12-26 build date) firmware. Both of the V2.622's work just fine. I have not tried to compare the firmware options so I do not know what was different.
But the V2.800 firmware has options that when selected, do not seem to do anything. If I get the chance and anyone is interested, I will try and investigate that further.
Funny thing is the two I got on Wednesday, the serial numbers only differ by the last two digits, 23 vs. 30 and the 23 is the one with the V2.800 firmware.
Can anyone enlighten me with the Dahua firmware numbering system? Is the part 800 vs. 622 significant? What does that mean?
Thanks.

I've upgraded but not liking this firmware. I can no use a valid "link to web" login from smartpss and the camera generally feels sluggish.
I cannot roll back to 20180523 anymore. Why have they suddenly prevented this ability to roll back firmware versions.
Is there no other way to roll back to previous versions?

The only thing i could think of to go back to a previous firmware version, would be over TFTP:
https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/dahua-ipc-easy-unbricking-recovery-over-tftp.17189/
I did not have the time to test if this works, but maybe i will try it, if Dahua does not come with a solution or new firmware.
At the moment, i have the camera running again stable on the latest "bad" firmware.

I'd like to know too. It would be nice to think the next firmware release allows you to roll back firmware version once again also.
I'm not keen on having to try the unbrick-recovery option unless I really have to.

Lesson learned, stop updating every time a new firmware is released.
Fair point, but generally you assume a firmware upgrade to be just that...."an upgrade", so it should be worth doing and you don't expect problems you never had before.
I certainly would not have done it had I known there was no roll back/downgrade option any more.

Poor assumption. Its an update not an "upgrade". This is true for every device and every update. Never do it unless its been verified good by others.Fair point, but generally you assume a firmware upgrade to be just that...."an upgrade", so it should be worth doing and you don't expect problems you never had before.

If its not broken, don't fix it.
I received two cams recently, one 5231 turret and one 2231 turret. The 2231 has the v2.800 firmware and the 5231 has v2.622.
The 2231 / v2.800 seems to work fine for what I've done but admittedly I've not played with a bunch of the settings right in the camera. I've basically only changed/set what is necessary to match my network and connect to BI computer.
I'll throw in a "me too" for V2.800.0000002.0.R. I've got a 5831 I just received that shipped with the January firmware and it's working wonderfully for me in these short two weeks I've had it connected. Has there been any recent news about the "V2.800.0000002.0.R, Build Date: 2019-01-11" firmware release? I haven't seen anything lately.
IPC-HDW5231R-ZE now has newer one, the Jan one had too much bug, guys all go to this one for checking.

I tried to use TFTP but i didnt work. Please let me know how you roll back this firmware. My problem is that this firmware is not broadscasting on http://192.168.1.XX/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?channel=0 only on http://192.168.1.XX/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?channel=1. Also the preview is not working neither with the emulator on chrome.

IPC-HDW4231EM-AS Same problem i try to go back to older firmware DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea_Eng_P_Stream3_V2.622.0000000.31.R.180813.bin and get "The upgrade package version is too low, failed to upgrade! Some functions of the device has been disabled, restart device now?"
Dahua make some limit to the fw if too low version. You can try this March one.
