Thanks for sharing.
I will try this firmware, recently I've updated my cam with Andoer AN7000 firmware and it works great :)
 
Hello Falsificator
Any chance we can get
-flat color profile (color3 is pretty close i think?)
-higher bitrate in 1080/2,7k ?

Greets! And thx for your work!
 
buggy on t5e , freezes between menu switching video > photo is ok, then is black screen
 
I would love to see you also modifying Novatek firmwares :D
 
Falsificator first great work and this is my first post on the forum. I have a request. I have installed the SJ7 Star firmware v1.15 on the T5e non mic ver. Now the down side is the WiFi is not recognizable and Bluetooth is non existing in the firmware or in the actual hardware of the camera. Can you extract the table from the original firmware of ThiEYE T5e (WiFi driver T5e) and put it in the SJ7 firmware. Also creating a new line in the menu by adding the Bluetooth (extracting Bluetooth driver from ThiEYE T5e) 2 things only and repack it:)

EDIT : 09.06.2017 Testing the FOV on T5e with the SJ7 Star Firmware v1.15

@Falsificator - Is it possible to hack the firmware to support 4K 25p without SuperView? Thanks for your great work!

More firmware can be downloaded here (requires a simple registration)...
I try to register but just shows basic screen. Have similar problems with 4PDA site (many links do not work) so may be just Australia ISP problem?

If you have ad blockers like AdBlock Plus enabled, then try disabling them...
In the TOR browser, the site works with different providers...

Thanks. Adblock off and Auto translate disabled. Will try other ways to access like VPN etc as well.
 
It would be nice to know the type of display and its marking...
It would be easier to find a color reversal switch on the display...
You can try the script to select the type of display:
t app test chg_LCD 0
Code:
The LCDpanelIdx list: 
0: LCD_WDF9648W (default)   
1: LCD_T30P61 
2: LCD_T20P52 
3: LCD_T27P05

The only thing I can see from the LCD/TFT screen is some code on the connector otherwise the LCD is all black no other part number on it

wow, what u do is amazing! I will pass by now, as the only mod I would need is higher bitrate in 4K (I am used to my Yi 2 4K with custom bitrate at >100Mbit, and the standard 60Mbit of my T5E is a bit limiting....), but congrats for your work!

the firmware works good, the only problem I find is that when you touch connect in the app to connect with wifi cam, the cam freezes and you ust remuve the battery. Another question that I have is: the color 1 profile is the same colors of the stock firmware?
Why if I want to make a nightlapse, i cannot set in the same time a long expousure and a time lapse phote interval? If I set once, the other switch to off. Thank you!

thanks! just a quick question: is the increased bitrate (i.e. 4K at 80Mbit) valid for NTSC only, or also when use PAL at 25fps?
 
To be honest, I just have the default settings.
In other modes, I did not check the bitrate.
There is a bug in the modified firmware.
If you shoot in 4K, the camera freezes when you go to the menu.
The video is recorded normally.
With the other types of resolutions, there are no problems with video.

thanks for your honest reply, but now I have another question: when you say camera freezes once you go to the menu (I assume after you have initially set recording to 4k), does it mean you cannot ever go to the menu anymore? I mean....if I want to change settings, I will not be able to do that anymore (once I set the camera to record in 4k)?? If so, I would rather pass and wait for an eventual mod without this issue...:-(
 
I'm trying to catch this bug.
In the meantime, you can safely shoot in 4K with the default settings.
You do not need to go to the menu. Everything is configured optimally by default.
I shoot video in the resolution of 2704x1520p and all video downscale in 1080p.
No problem...)
...yes, problem for me is that I do need 4K as final footage (i.e. I do not work in 1080p), and am not sure after the firmware upgrade, it goes to 25fps....and if I update and it goes by default setting in 30fps....I am not sure I could downgrade back to the original firmware.... I will wait for your fix....I trust you :)
 
thanks! I will definitely try it as soon as back from holiday, and post if I see any bug!

The bug with the interruption of video recording in 4K is fixed.
The video is recorded normally.
When you go to the menu, the camera does not freeze.
The link has been replaced by a new one - MOD #13

Completed:
After shooting in 4K in the menu it turns out to enter through time.
Apparently, can not display the preview as expected, does not draw.
I have to return the settings to 4K in the default state...

Falsificator is it possible to have this MOD13# for non-microphone T5e (ver-1.0) based on the new firmware TI/UN5-170628-V5.0 :)
