Front camera not visible/recording

I'm working with Viofo on a resolution but I'll rephrase something from my previous post; Can someone tell me how to or help me downgrade the firmware to an earlier version? I don't know what the version was before I updated to V1.2_0505.

You will need to request a copy of the previous firmware from Viofo.

The downgrade process is the same as the upgrade process.

There are four versions of firmware V1.2 for the T130 model.
But I don't know exactly which one you need...

I have:
FWT130A_V1.2_0309
FWT130A_V1.2_0510
FWT130A_V1.2_0706
FWT130A_V1.2_0815
Which version should I give you?

Probably FWT130A_V1.2_0309. It looks to me like you have three firmware versions which are even more recent than the latest version on the Viofo site, which is V1.2_0505. πŸ€”

Any idea which firmware version was available around August 2026?

Thank you for these - although now I'm not 100% sure if I'm going to have an opportunity to use them.

I've been working with Viofo to exchange both of the defective front camera bodies for working units (and a moderate fee). I wasn't told if the replacements are new or refurbished and I didn't think to ask before I agreed. πŸ€” Regardless, the bad ones are already on their way back to Viofo. <shrug>

Bottom line - here's what I'm most grateful for:
  • I found out they were defective before I had an incident where I needed the (missing) footage to defend against an insurance claim.
  • I'll be able to get working units again - hopefully fairly soon.
  • and of course, for the fine folks like you in this thread to help me after I realized that both units failed in almost identical fashion.

Just go to show, it is important you take a look at what your dashcam is doing now and then, they still are not set and forget devises.
