Never fear. They monitor this site and will probably fix it in next release. Just format the sd if problem occurs.Oh well clearly Blackvue is clueless. Very disappointed they can’t get this fixed after this long.
I just ran a test with my DR900X-2CH Plus dash cam running firmware 1.004 with a 128GB SanDisk Max Endurance microSD card with it being 100% full (386k free to start the test). I was able to boot the DR900X-2CH Plus and let it run for several minutes and then I powered it down and then powered it up again and it power up correctly (no rebooting). The total test lasted about 12 minutes.Never fear. They monitor this site and will probably fix it in next release. Just format the sd if problem occurs.
Also, the fix was probably not scheduled in time for release 1.0.0.4.

The total test lasted about 12 minutes.
I checked the microSD card after my test and I found that 26 new video files had been created during the test period and the oldest 20 video files had been removed with a total of 1024 video files present in the \BlackVue\Record directory. I then re-installed the microSD card in the DR900X-2CH Plus dash cam and booted it again. It booted properly and started recording in normal recording mode.
I wonder if there is some firmware setting difference that triggers the behavior you're seeing with your dash cam.
What brand?I just ran a test with a 256GB microSD card with the DR900X-2CH Plus. I formatted the microSD as FAT32 on my computer. I booted the DR900X-2CH Plus with the fresh microSD card and it initialized and formatted the microSD card. I then let the DR900X-2CH Plus record in normal mode and switched to parking mode after five minutes with no motion. I powered down the dashcam and repeated the power up testing with a 10 minute runtime three more times and it stayed powered on with no unusual rebooting taking place.
Mine with WD Purple 256GB starts rebooting every 3 days of running 24 hours. I format it, then it reboots after 3 days. If I don’t format, it reboots once in a while. I also have 750X Plus with the same card, and the reboot interval is much longer, so I assume they both reboot when the cards start overwriting. 750X Plus is only one channel, and 900X Plus is 2 channels, so 4K + 2 cameras take lots of storage space.
I had one 256GB card left in my supply (unused) and it's a SanDisk Extreme Pro. I don't normally use the SanDisk Extreme Pro in a dashcam, but for this test I wanted to see if the max capacity of the card was involved in the issue.What brand?
Thanks for info. Please let us know if there is any problem afterwards. My WD Purple 256 was fine after Blackvue fixed the firmware issues (reformatting with startup), then after sometime, it started rebooting. It happens 2-3 days after formatting the SD card, and randomly if I ignore and keep using without formatting. I left 750X Plus as is, and it rebooted twice within 6 minutes right now.Sitting in the car right now.
Looks like the Lexar 256GB 1066x SD is working without issues.
Samsung micro sd sucks.
Glad this is finally solved.
Looks like the Lexar 633x and 1066x 256GB micro sd solved my issues.My issue is not rebooting, but shutting down. Seems related though. I started a separate thread here and listed every detail and step
900X Plus Powers down even though its hooked to fully charged Cellink Neo Battery
Installed a 900X PLus 2 channel and a Cell Link Neo Battery This issue occurs whether or not I use the Samsung Pro Endurance 128 GB card or the Blackvue OEM card Formatted the card in ExFAT and then updated to most current firmware from Blackvue site on my PC copied the folder to a freshly...dashcamtalk.com

Maybe the camera just needs faster rated sd for 4k and no issues. I see Lexar also has a V60 256gb.
Just because blackvue sells micro sd doesn't mean they guarantee compatibility with all their cameras.But shouldn't the OEM Blackvue card work? I Have the same problem with it, even when downgraded the firmware
