Re: DOD LS300W Firmware 20130326 update not possible ...28

I think you're better off waiting anyway, I have 1306130-SC-2 which is much newer and and it still has bugs that need to be fixed
 
Re: DOD LS300W Firmware 20130326 update not possible ...28

thanks for reply,
I was of the opinion, that the 20130328 version is better as my 20130326
is the 1306130-SC-2 version a release candidate?

I think they've changed the numbering convention recently from what I can work out, it's still buggy though, don't expect miracles in a slightly newer version

Please help me!
these instructions will not work, the camera always starts with the video recording

Download and decompress the firmware file (LS300W_130328.rar).
2. Please have the updated file to be copied to the root directory of your memory card.
3. Plug in the power, the Car DVR will automatically start. (If you boot from built-in battery, it may cause update failed by an electrical power outage.)
4. When you operate the machine, it will update automatically. With full grey screen in update progress, please wait for around 30s for its auto-reboot.
5. Press format or delete the firmware file from the memory card (avoid update loops). Update complete!

I have the following firmware for available > please see attachements

thanks for replay.

I just updated my GT300W to 201306180-SC-2. I now have LS300W Plus features: AWB, plate stamp and image rotation available.
Don't know if you want to try it on your LS300W?. Technically it should work but of course there are zero guarantees it will.
File is here if you're so inclined: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qxt1w9q8syz2fkb/FWA8S711.bin

Thanks for the note,
I would like to try. But, I did not get to update. The gray screen is not displayed, the camera immediately starts recording video.
I deleted all the data on the memory card an then only the firmware file (.bin) saved
not get ahead, why?
this is my problem

I have that FW96650A version but never used it. The one I tried yesterday in the link above is named FWA8S711.bin and provides AWB, plate stamp and image rotation.
 
Re: DOD LS300W Firmware 20130326 update not possible ...28

I can not install your version, unfortunately.
all .bin Files starting with FWA8xxxx will not be accepted.
I do not know why
 
Re: DOD LS300W Firmware 20130326 update not possible ...28

I've done it :)
I have to rename the file name, so simply.

now is my FW 201306180-SC-2
 
Re: DOD LS300W Firmware 20130326 update not possible ...28

Thanks for that file naming test now we can understand how to use different firmware between the GT300W and LS300W.

I would not try it.
There was a post in the F10/SJ1000 thread about the latest firmware, if it didn't work for you try it on a different card formatted in camera.
Link to F10/SJ1000 firmware: http://wikisend.com/download/419864/FW96650A.bin

Has anyone downloaded the correct file? I would really appreciate it if I could download a copy. :)
