I just want to report that I was not able to flash my regular G1W using the 29 Jan 2015 firmware. I tried flashing it with both FWDM800H and FWDM800H file names and it just boots to the firmware I have been using and starts to record.
Sorry miss posted. I meant to type I tried both FWS1088.bin (I have flashed DOD/Shadow firmwares to my G1W this way in prior posts back) and FWDM800Htry renaming the file to FWS1088.bin and try again.

That's okay. I don't use my G1W much so I don't mind giving it a shot.Sad news. This must be because the firmware is dedicated to the G1WH only not the G1W
Today received G1WH. Everything seems to be Ok.
Tryed to install DOD LS388W Firmware to increase video stream (current firmware G1WH-DA380-2014.11.28.03)
Renamed Dod firmware to FWDM800H.bin and placed on microsd. But nothing happened after power on.
Attaching a mainboard picture. Is it a new one?

DA380 firmware version + Novatek96650 + AR0330
Download here:
G1WH_DA380_2015.01.21.01
Procedure for uploading the firmware to the camera:
1. Rename the filename as FWS1088.bin
2. Load the file onto a blank micro sd card
3. Place the card in the camera.
4. Make sure camera is plugged into a charger.
5. Turn on the camera and the FW uploads to the camera.
Yes, I just tried the firmware and it just takes longer to start with the Red led on and the firmware is updated without any user input.I got 5 of these cameras from BangGood late last year (Dec 02, 2014 shipment) and they have very similar looking mainboards, they say S1088_M_Ver1.0 on them, but beside that in a font like those LED number displays it says 1438 then further to the right under the foam it says 2013-something that I can't see because of the foam. I have no numbers or letters under the gold line.
Uploaded new soft to my g1wh and all issues with missing parts of a footage seems to be resolved instantly - many thanks!!!!
It's working good so far.How is the new firmware, is there anything new or improved compared to the old version or other firmwares (DOD, Shadow, etc.)?
It's working good so far.
I haven't checked all the menu but noticed it has name plate option so that's added compared to original g1wh firmware.
OK, thanks. How is the bitrate?
I just flashed my G1WH with GT680W firmware ( Shadow_GT680W_full_black_v2.7G_FW.zip ) and it is working fine.
Not much different from Shadow GT300W I had before.
- 15,23Mbit/s recording, menus are different, date format can be changed (DD/MM/YY - MM/DD/YY ), MENU and MODE buttons work on the left side instead the arrows and vice versa.
Some extras too, speed warning, "coffee break" remainder..., and PC camera.
Tomorrow I will drive a while and then I can see it the video quality is any different.
I have I think it's version 2.9G on my full black GT680W bought from JooVuu, but I don't think there is a way to extract it. Might see if I can get 3.0 on it, and my G1W when I come across it.G1WH with GT680W firmware ( Shadow_GT680W_full_black_v2.7G_FW.zip ) and it is working fine.
With this G1WH_DA380_2015.01.21.01 firmware, overall bit rate is 15.3mbps.OK, thanks. How is the bitrate?
