Thanks guys. I guess I'm just cheap and desperate enough to try to fix things before buying a new one. I ended up ordering a G1W-HC for ~$50 before I read the replies here. I'll keep these two in storage for emergency use.

I tried turning one on and off and that didn't work. They behave the same way with multiple different power sources and cables. Both cameras refused to turn on again yesterday, even though one of them was being used just fine the day before. Pressing the reset button did not fix either of them...

Thanks! That fixed the second camera. The first camera turned on as soon as I unplugged it. Is there any way I can get them to turn off on their own so I don't have to turn them off every time? I'm thinking of using one of them in the rear of my car and/or giving one to a family member when she...

I replaced the battery in one of my G1W-H's last month and the camera wouldn't turn off when I unplugged it, so I had to manually turn it off every time. I learned this was because the battery was in good condition. I left it in my father's car, which automatically turns the camera on when it...

Checked the fuse box and couldn't see if any of the fuses were blown. The car is currently in the shop. Interesting. The other camera's battery was definitely bad as it stopped holding the time/date shortly after. I believe you, though, because this one's battery was just replaced. Is it...

Last night I tried moving my G1W-H to my other car (which I'll call car #2) and plugged it into a cigarette lighter socket doubler, which I had used before without any issues. After a minute or so, both the cam and the other thing I had plugged in began behaving strangely. The cam's screen went...

Thanks! I ended up flashing the 2015.0121 after reading through the entire thread and it isn't that much of an improvement over the 2014.0108 FW, but I think I'll keep it due to the higher bitrate. Haven't had the chance yet to compare the image quality between this one and my stock FW. When I...

I bought my G1W-H's last year with the stock firmware G1WH-DA380-15051201JR which worked just fine, but the other day I accidentally flashed a G1W-C firmware into one of them after swapping in a card that I had used to flash another camera and forgotten to format afterwards. I had somewhere to...

My G1W-H started having trouble holding the correct date and time for more than a day, so I pulled the capacitor from my old broken G1W-C and placed it in the H. I just replaced the battery in my other H, and am too impatient and cheap to order another battery and wait for it to ship. It took a...
