Just wanted to report my dashcam died today, serial KMHK 12030773 firmware 6.8 T2L-KH. I bought this unit from Amazon seller DealKings in end of Feb so it lasted 5 months. Screen has gone all white, starting suddenly when I put it in "Charge" mode at the startup menu. Still did record same as ever though, but then I made the mistake of pushing the reset button expecting it to fix the white screen. Unfortunately this caused the device to forget its settings, so now it only records a small size video and with the default timestamp. Since I can't see the menu I can't turn off the timestamp or set the video to full size. A possible solution is to buy an identical dashcam that works and use the menu as an emulator to push the right buttons on the dead one. But I am hesitant to throw good money after bad.

Until today this has been a fine dashcam and made impressive quality video.
