    Cant update speedcam version on U1000

    This is very strange, my colleague who uses MAC also says the Database no. shows in the same format as yours so that's fine. Can you Private message me with your email address please.... Thanks Steve

    Cant update speedcam version on U1000

    Can i check that you got that Camera file directly from the Camera File ONLY Download and that wasn't part of the Firmware package you downloaded as the Firmware package doesn't have the latest database included with it? The screenshot looks good to me apart from the Database Version number...

    Okay, can you do a screenshot of the 'Dash cam Info' screen either from the PC Viewer or the Cloud App please?

    Cant update speedcam version on U1000

    Is there anything else in the 'driveinfo' folder of the Memory card? (Screenshot if any doubt) The database version number should change yes. Once the file has been updated and the Camera powered ON it should change. It won't change if you just check using the PC Viewer before it's been powered...

    Cant update speedcam version on U1000

    When you download from the Thinkware.com site the Speed Camera file isn't zipped. Just download it and drop it into the 'driveinfo' folder of the memory card and the jobs done!

    Thinkware 750 Development

    I pretty much agree with BlackboxMyCar but i think the F750 had different Front to rear cables through it's life. I've seen straight Micro USB at the front, and a big extended right angle connector (that way it was raised above the power right angle cable so looked a bit neater). If it is...

    Well for me if FUD reduces the risk of losing an Incident while driving, that's good enough!

    If the Sony Card seems to be working Okay under normal conditions then i would say Yes. Not all cards will work correctly but generally they will give a Card Error message or Format Card message continuously. The odd one i have seen does appear to work Okay but has caused issues with recordings...

    In my opinion it's 'better to be safe than sorry!' as they say. Cards can corrupt if small bits of data get left behind and no one wants to risk losing an important incident. So it pays to format the card periodically to refresh it, we in the UK recommend once a month but it's personal choice...

    This is correct but just to clarify the Ignition must be on. It's about 5 seconds you hold the Manual Record button.

    Q800 Pro horrible video quality?

    I think initially you should contact where the camera was purchased from. To me the videos look very slightly our of focus so i suspect there may be an issue. Number plates at night are always difficult to get, it's bad enough in the UK where they are Yellow but even worse on White Plates as...

    Q800 Pro horrible video quality?

    Are you able to upload a video or two to a cloud and share the links to them. In the UK our Dealers were very disappointed when we discontinued this product as it was their favourite model due to decent video etc! I have seen a few 'blurry' ones over the years though that were faulty. (One was a...

    U3000 rear camera RADAR does not work

    Can i just ask anyone that is having this issue, this question. I have done some more testing this week including putting the Front U3000 in a Metal box so the Radar could not escape and then walking to the back of my vehicle. The Radar IS in the Rear camera for certain as it still picked me up...

    Time to replace my F770 - What to change it to?

    The Q1000 or U1000 models will both use the same Power & Front to Rear cable as the F770 :)

    Thinkware Wifi connection issues

    It's not the phone automatically jumping back to a WiFi network that does have Internet access is it? Usually on Android when you connect to the Camera you get a Notification about no Internet Access and it asks if you want to stay connected to that device or not. You Tick the 'don't ask again'...

    U3000 MicroSD Card

    You may find alternative branded cards don't work correctly so be aware. I tested a Sandisk Ultra 256gb in my unit and it all appeared to work fine except when you did a Manual Recording they varied from 1 second, 32 seconds up to 60 seconds when they should always be 60 seconds (unless the...

    U3000 rear camera RADAR does not work

    This is news to me, in the UK i have not had a single Rear Radar issue reported. I know my one works as the Security LED on the Rear camera comes on when i walk past (i can see it when it's dusk/dark).
