Hi! Does anybody have an older firmware version for the NextBase 622GW? Either 12.4 or 11.1. I updated my dash cam to version 12.6 and have been having freezing issues. Did a factory reset multiple times but it still randomly freezes.
 
excellent. i’ve just bought the 622gw so i don’t think i’ll update the firmware on it 👍
 
Thanks, just discovered this post and you may have just saved my sanity. I 'upgraded' to 12.6 and since then the dash cam has been freezing about 1-2 mins into a journey. Professionally installed through Nextbase, rear ball cam, worked perfectly until 12.6 firmware. I contacted Nextbase who suggested trying without the rear cam.. and try bypassing hardwire kit.. despite everything working perfectly on previous firmware. So, thanks for this!
 
Advice please on the Nextbase 622GW.

I am thinking of buying the 622GW (hardwired) even though the forums are full of negative comments relating to the firmware.

Google suggests firmware version 12.6 has some major bugs. Google also states that v12.7 was released in July 2025 but the latest version offered on the Nextbase website shows 12.6? Again, Google has suggested that the most reliable and stable version is 11.1. So, does anybody have the firmware files for 11.1? If v12.7 really is available - does it address the issues in 12.6?

Google AI doesn't always get things quite right, 12.6 was released in July 2025 accrding to their website (check the date on the download link). 12.6 was buggy as hell for me, prevented the camera from working as it should. I grabbed the 12.4 firmware from the post earlier in this thread and re-flashed my camera with that, since then works perfectly on 12.4 with zero issues.
 
Sorry guys, I changed my mind at the last moment and bought a Viofo A229 dash cam. So far works a treat and downloading files is quick.
 
I had reported an issue with my 622gw locking up to Nextbase. They said I should go back to were I purchased it for an exchange. Even though I was able to do that (Both the retailer and I were in agreement that nextbase should have handled the return), I was able to get a replacement. In looking at the other 622gw I had for my vehicle, I noticed it started having the same issue after upgrading to 12.6. I found this forum when looking for the 12.4 firmware. I sent a message back to Nextbase support about the issue I found when searching again on the lockups asking why they did not bring up going back to R12.4.
