YES! Able to update to latest. Thanks for the help.

Thank you. Do I go to 5.2.5 first or proceed with 5.3.0 after the’enhanced mtd hack’?

If I have V5.2.0, how do I go about to get it to V5.2.5 and then follow this thread to upgrade?

I just noticed half of my 2532 IR's have gone out. I haven't taken it down and open up to see what happened. Bummer.

Are you saying the one on hikvision ftp is mutli-language? i.e. working on china version camera. You must have US version? The image posted here does work on china cameras.

Need to be doing ftp via active mode. google ur ftp client and see how to set it to active mode

Nice. Can you extract the davinci file and post it here or do binary diffs of it to see the differences? I wonder if it's just a hex patch to a different location.

Cool. So day of week is also in English?

I believed soupratt said that it worked loading from 5.1.6 with the 5.2 multi-language; he is just having trouble loading 5.2 f/w to this new 5.2 mutli-language f/w is the problem, i.e. he can't load it from web ui. It would be interesting to compare this 5.2 multi-language f/w with the regular...

try this. day of week still in chinese but everything else looks like english, so maybe it will let you copy over? http://www.cam-it.org/index.php?topic=8420.msg50562#msg50562

cbx came up with the patch; cbx seems to be very knowledgable with respect to this kind of stuff :-) See these threads: http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=39874 http://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php?440-Custom-Hikvision-5-1-6-firmware

Just to report back after 3 weeks. No issue with blinking after adding the tape.

I doubt that is a valid vendor account. BTW, trying to contact the seller to ask some question. No resonse either. I'm going to add to my cart, but don't complete the purchase, and wait it out. I'll bet Aliexpress will send a notice that it is a suspicious account in a week or two.

3rd nite after fix, and still no problem with blinking. Thanks gaijin4ever for sharing your workaround.

Ok, I went back up there this weekend and reopen and re-taped it again. This time I pushed it all the way back in until it hit the metal mount, then slid it forward a little to remove any contact, and since last night, no more blinking IR. Hope this holds. I will report back after some time...
