Just purchased two new 2017 version A119 dash cams from SpyTec on Amazon.
At least one came with a defective GPS module.
Sad to report the screen flickers rapidly while using the GPS module.
When pressure is applied to the camera/module , the flickering stops.
I contacted SpyTec support through amazon for a replacement, so I'm sure I'll hear back from them soon.
For anyone who experiences these symptoms , check the GPS module by applying a small amount of pressure to the camera , if the flickering stops, you will know its a connection issue. You can also see if the flickering stops by powering the camera by the built in USB port instead of GPS module.
