Hi all, I have been using F800 since its release; It's been great so far. I'm thinking of adding a F800R rear camera, and I'm wondering if there are any interference issues with radio or built in navigation system.. Thanks in advance!

Received a replacement unit from BBMC and installed. Hopefully this one is issue-free..

Please correct me if I'm wrong. It appears F800 Pro turns off hotspot/wifi during the parking mode. So.. if I'm the only driver, all the cloud features are simply useless.. Why would I need geo fencing or accident notifications on my iPhone when I'm already in my car? Well, maybe except when...

BBMC offered $75+$10 shipping+tax=$96 for an upgrade to F800 Pro. Is the pro version worth extra $100?

Just sent my defective F800 to BBMC today. $17.33 for shipping. :( Really hope the replacement unit is problem-free. +1 for BBMC's great customer service. Will definitely buy from them again in the future.

Reconfigured everything and never connected to iPhone afterwards, and it was good for last 2 weeks. Everything got reset again today. :( Language went back to English, every setting went back to default, hotspot information got wiped again. I’m sending mine to Blackboxmycar... they created RMA...

Happened again. Contacted Thinkware support and they called it a "problematic unit". :( Time for a repair.. after just 2 months

Thank you all. I connected via wifi and *boom* Every setting was reset or removed. Geez:confused: How and why did this happen? I have not touched F800 or connected it to my iPhone ever sine I installed it.

Yes, I can connect through wifi. But now I can only connect through wifi. Hotspot connection no longer works at all. So I was wondering, if it indeed got wiped out, how do I add it back? Now I need to hear "on your smartphone, connect to a wifi network who's name starts with Thinkware" every...

It'd be weird if the previous hotspot setting got wiped by itself.. If it indeed got wiped out, how do I add it back? Right now, it only blinks green and I can't find a way to change to blue light for hotspot connection..

My Thinkware F800 started malfunctioning. Wi-Fi is on by default and I cannot turn it off. Meaning, I can never turn on the hotspot connection. It's running the latest firmware 1.00.05 with Thinkware brand 32GB MicroSD card. I already tried resetting the dashcam and formatting the memory card...

I'd like to see the video quality comparison between DR750S and Thinkware F800.. @BlackboxMyCar any thoughts?

Yes :D

According to blackboxmycar website, it's using H264. I guess 60fps option will result in smoother video, but reduced picture quality

No I don't. I was talking about one memory card working fine on 2 F800's but not on the other one. Not same model of memory card, but one memory card. Only thing I can guess is not all F800's are as picky when it comes to memory card, for whatever reason

I have 3 F800's. Lexar 64GB (633x made in Taiwan ) works fine on 2 of them, but never works on 1 of them. No idea why.

I'm wondering if DR750S would result in better video quality than Thinkware F800 as it offers bigger bitrate + 60 fps..

Looks like F800 is available in some countries now

On Blackvue, you can choose between 1080p@60fps or 1080p@30fps with the same max bit rate of 12 Mbps. According to your theory, 1080p@30fps option has absolutely zero advantage over 1080p@60fps option because the file size will be the same, image quality will be the same, and 1080p@60fps will...

So, according to your theory, people at Blackvue were just too dumb to create an option for users to choose 60fps/30fps because the file size and video quality will be exactly the same, except that 60fps is only smoother. :eek: You should also email Adobe to remove an option to reduce frame...
