    Rear Cam wiring from 12v to 5v, advice needed

    have the same dilemma. I think it all come down to where you tap the power. if you tap power on something that is sensitive to noise, either solution will be bad since everything is a buck converter nowadays that generate noise. If you tap power from a wire that the car expects to power...

    opening it up?

    the "base" is easy to open. It has screws. It houses the GPS module. So... maybe if I trash the module in a way that still sends power i might be able to silence the GPS online chinese voice on my other thread :) but still no luck trying to open the camera itself. Even the smallest razor...

    silence the chinese announcements

    I like the other cameras nice beeps and jingles when they turn on. And it is helpful to know it is working. This one i had to disable the startup sound because it is extremely annoying. But it still announce the GPS online. @^!*@&#$^!&*#^$&*@^$ which is annoying and useless because i couldn't...

    latest US firmware?

    how do you guys do OTA? when i click the firmware (or version? don't recall) button, it does nothing. as if it were just a label on the app, not a button.

    What res mode do you use and why?

    think of interpolated as: it is the exact same image as 1080p, but then you open it up in GIMP or PhotoShop, scale it to 1296 and save it. Will you see the image better? no. you will just waste more disk space. (well, you can see better if you use some scaling algorithm that can discern edges...

    What res mode do you use and why?

    yes 1296 is interpolated. waste of space on the card. 1080p it is. then for FPS, in theory, 30 should have given better image as it should have more bandwith for each frame and more exposition time for dark scenes, but it is not the case with this camera and i really hope they improve later...

    LCD delete mod

    i see. it may... it should have been both a heatsink and a radio shield... that hole on the tape, plus the thermal pad led me to believe it was designed as a heat sink too. though, the top of the thermal pad on the cpu still have it's own electrical tape on top!!! i am guessing bad...

    LCD delete mod

    finally fixed the "lcd off" feature and got rid of the bright pink clock on all the time. http://cubeupload.com/im/35cLnS.jpg While opening it up, i also realized that the heat spreader (the metal you can see there, which would be under the LCD) was NOT touching the CPU thermal pad! there...

    Where did you mount the camera? Post your pictures

    came here to look for ideas as this is the worst camera/mount ever! . I only bought because I though it would have the regular camera screw like the yi action. image is not that good, lane assist is a bad joke (but we all knew that already) and the camera gets incredibly hot. well, but the...
