Thanks in advanced

Not possible anymore.

Folks in 4pda have confirmed that crossflashing different regional firmware (like CN to WW) is now blocked. It will return an error and asking to reflash correct firmware.

@seanarad Thank you for info.

In this case China version is kind of useless for me.

I can't even register in China app because China cellphone number is needed.

Login from WorldWide version is not working in China.

Update:

I installed China app from https://www.70mai.com/download/

During registration China cellphone is not needed you can put your email instead - thank you so much @lisabon_Q3 for tip.

Fortunately China application has English language and I can set most parameters from application and no need do this from China
menu on camera.

I can confirm that flashing from CN to WW is not working.

Even if upgrade process ended with success dvr are starting with error "Firmware mismatch' and after few seconds goes down.

After rollback to CN version everything works as before.

MY SUMMARY:
Don't change firmware from CN edition to WW because it's not working anymore like in older models.
Instead use China app with English language support.

If you like to have support for WW languages buy worldwide version not CN.

Hey, do you mind to share your Chinese firmware? I just bricked my device.

Btw, here's the English firmware and hopefully someone will modify it.

The "Firmware mismatch" prompt come out when the device is powered on and right before recording starts.

Download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I8omAYUwsPpmvj2-aTjIy0IQgsWkVC5F/view?usp=sharing
Steps (PLEASE DO NOT FLASH ON CHINESE DEVICE):

1. Unzip and paste the firmware in the root of the SD card.
2. Make sure the device is completely off.
3. Insert the SD card.
4. Press and hold the button 4 (most right) and power button and plug in USB cable.
5. The device will start updating.
