Follow-up question for anyone here, Im wondering, does anyone have a "hacked" firmware for this ptz camera 5.2.x or even latest available? Not trying to force a incompatible firmware but if someone successfully patched the firmware that would be nice... Thanks to anyone who can patch the Fw or I can use mtd hack if that's available
Edit: I checked the MTD blocks of camera and find my serial number in mtdblock3 instead of 5 and 6, I checked 4 too but I don't see serial number, I checked other except 0 and 1
EDIT 2: i flashed chinese 5.2.8, edited mtdblock3, returned the patched one, and it worked!!! you only need to do mtdblock3 for R3 PTZ, same thing as said on the original mtd hack forum post, change 02 to 01 and match the checksum
Note: I don't know if it will apply for all r3 ptz cameras, so proceed with caution, but for me it worked for both my DS-2DF5274-A cameras
