Nevermind... Sorry about the wasted space. I just noticed several posts from this thread where @whoslooking mentions that my symptoms describes one of the newer 5.2.x cameras and that "most version of manufacturing dates 2015/01 won't work with anything less than 5.2.5". I guess this just...

Figured I'd post my results after trying to perform the mtd hack on one of these cameras. First of all, I realized that my comment about the version differences reported by prtHardInfo and the web interface was incorrect - the particular camera I was working with had FW 5.2.3 installed, and was...

I appreciate your patience... I do believe I understand now. Just for clarification then: I don't really need to know the checksum at all all so long as my modifications don't make the 'Checksum-16 sum of the 0xF4 bytes that are after the checksum' change from its original value. Correct...

Thank you for the in-depth explanation. I believe I understand, at least for the most part. What I am still confused about is if what you said means that I have one of the "post-2015" cameras you are talking about which means I can no longer use the simple 'Checksum-16 sum of the 0xF4 bytes'...

OK, so I just pulled the mtdblock5 and mtdblock6 off the first camera. Strange thing is, when I ran prtHardInfo, the terminal responds with version 5.2.3, but the web interface reads 5.2.5. Either way, I had no issues with pulling the mtdblocks off, but I figured that I'd take a look at the...

Is there a general consensus at this point as to which bytes are OK or "best" to modify in order to "balance the checksum"? I noticed that @whoslooking preferred modifying the MAC or Reset codes: But I would prefer not to play with my MAC address, and for that matter the reset code. I also...
