hi
I bought brand new camera A129plus. I cant update this camera, I cant install modified software because a129 cant see the file on card
I used samsung evo card (32GB) and second , this same model .
Formatting in camera, file FWA129S.bin or FWE129S.bin

Nothing, zero reaction.
the camera is recording normally.

I replaced it with a new one - this same problem.



what am I doing wrong ?

thanks

Maybe the firmware is from another model?
The firmware from the simple A129 plus does not fit the A129 plus EMMC.
 
look:

official Viofo site:

firmware for A129plus - FWA129S.bin

file on my card:

and... my camera:

I try with file FWE129S.bin (from official, international site)

Nothing
 
Flash version 1.0 first. Then 1.5
 
Try formatting the card with the GUI Formatter, then copy the file to the card.

thanks, guys, but.. it doesn't work

Holy...



I am returning to the store.
A119 V3 - problem with regularly restoring settings
A129Plus - problem with update...

goodbay, Viofo. Its time for another producer


thanks, guys, for your help
 
I changed the link. Now there is a folder with files and instructions. Try it.
I have Viofo A119v3 for almost 2 years and have never had any problems.
 
How are you powering it when trying to update?

I doubt there is anything wrong with the camera that is preventing the update.
 
With other brand cameras i have at times had problems updating with firmware on a large memory card, so i always use smaller memory cards like 32 / 16 GB for update of firmwares,,,, i have even used very old 4 and 8 GB cards for this too.
