I purchased a QVIA R975 dash cam from an ebay seller from Korea and I need help troubleshooting some issues:
Also purchased the following memory cards:
SanDisk Extreme 128GB microSDXC
Lexar Professional 1000x 256GB SDXC UHS-II/U3 Card
1) I formatted the cards on my Mac, then it asked to format the cards again on the dash cam. After doing some recordings, I wanted to see how the video looked and also update the firmware. My Macbook could not read the card and asked if I wanted to format it. Is the issue from the SDXC card slot on my Mac?
2) I have a Honda Fit and put the "battery" wire for constant power in a fuse location that I knew would not switch off. The dash cam still switches off when I completely turn the car off. It will turn back on when I turn the key to ACC mode. Any idea which fuse slot would provide a better constant power feed?
3) The wifi seems to go in and out when I try to connect my phone to the dash cam. Is this normal?
On another note, if you choose to get this model, make sure to buy it from a US seller. I was sent the wrong model (non-gps instead of gps but was compensated instead of exchanging it), and the firmware is in Korean so you can only get english by updating the firmware. It has been a PITA to say the least.
