    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    Yup, with and without. With it plugged into a USB supply, it just continuously reboots. When on battery and switched on, it just shows the Welcome screen and then switches off.

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    I've had the board under a microscope and I can't see any blown components. It's almost certainly a power issue, my gut tells me a bad capacitor, but they're bloody microscopic. I'm going to leave it at that for now because I can't be bothered. I think it would be worth solving the issue because...

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    Well it's been a year since the last post and this wasn't resolved, so I have dug mine out of a cupboard and taken it apart. The battery was completely flat and wouldn't charge. So far I have de-soldered the battery and discharged/charged it with a professional battery charger. The battery is...

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    I basically took my car apart to install the wiring so it was not visible. I guess that's what I'm mostly angry about.

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    I hope the seller doesn't give me any jip about returning it or I will drive to Portsmouth and have 'words' with them in person. For £36 I would expect 6 months, maybe a year but 1 a month is terrible. I work closely with BSI and Trading Standards and I wonder if this things has an EMC...

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    I hate to use the words 'cheap chinese crap', but everything is made in China. My Nokia for example and even iPhones and my Lenovo laptop. I bought a 1080p keyring cam off ebay from China 5 years ago (allwinner chip) and it still works! Decent lithium ion battery. Has your mirror cam been out...

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    There's a guy called Tech Moan or something on youtube who either does or used to review dash cams. He had links with loads of different chipsets. By the way, you are going to have the same problem as me. How exactly would you install the firmware, the DVR will not hook up to a computer either.

    How can do you tell if a dash cam is fafe 1080p upscaled or genuine?

    Too many Chinese low res cams going out at 1080p. Is there a program to tell the real resolution? Thanks

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    It's only a couple of months old and even if the battery was dying, why would it keep rebooting when plugged into a 12v socket? Someone above said it might be running an Allwinner chipset. I have success in install firmware on other camera devices with allwinner chipsets so maybe there is one...

    Dash Cam keeps rebooting

    Hello, My Dash cam, probably the same as yours is doing the exact the same thing! When plugged in it just continuously reboots and when not plugged in, you get the welcome screen and it just switches off. Have also tried the reset button. Here is mine: and that is the seller who sold it to me...
