Hi
This is my first post in this forum.
First of all i would like to thank you all, because I bought 3 dashcams following your recommendations here.
The last dashcam that I bought is the mini0805 . I just got the camera with gps dongle from GearBest and I need your advice.
I charged the camera for full 12 hours as mentioned in the manual. At first the led indicator was red (charging) but after few hours it was off, meaning the camera is fully charged.
I have 3 issues:
1. Once I unplug the camera from the charger, it immediately shows a low battery signal and goes off (Important: it is set on 'auto power off' = OFF and 'power off screen' = OFF).
I see no reason for this apart from the camera is dis-funcional.
2. GPS - I see no speed and coordinates display on the video files and i don't know why.
On the left side there is satellite reception signal.
It is set on gps=ON and stamp=Date/Time and the only other option is 'driver number'.
I'll just tell you that there's a GPS folder on the microsd card with many text files in the folder.
3. The firmware of the camera I received is fw20140901 V1.0. And I read that the mini0805 camera was published on November 2014 so how come it is equipped with September's version? From what I have read here in the forum, there is a possibility they sent me the mini0803 disguised as the 0805. If this is the case I want to get my money back, but how can I prove it? I have no intention of updating the version as I understand following my little research that people that the same thing happened to them, upgraded and the camera became useless.
I would really appreciate your comments and help.
Thanks in advance.
