I got the same warning as mrmoe initially but now have other problems with the dashcam/SD card. Was hoping that
@estore009 could help figure out what the issue is.
I followed the steps described elsewhere in this forum to reformat the SD card and copy over the latest firmware. I inserted the SD card into a switched off dashcam, and powered on the dashcam on my computer to upload the new firmware.
Generally at this stage the dashcam records properly while plugged into the computer (no warning sounds, and files are saved to the SD card). However sometimes I immediately get the "please insert SD card" warning, or get it thereafter when I plug in the dashcam to my car when it was initially working fine plugged into the computer.
I've tried plugging the dashcam directly to my car after reformatting the SD card and uploading the new firmware (i.e. skipping powering the dashcam on my computer), and sometimes the recording works until I turn off and on my car's engine, and at other times it doesn't work and I get the "please insert SD card" warning immediately.
I'm not really sure what the issue is. Everything was working fine for over a month, and my other B1W that was installed at the same time with the same SD card has no issue. The SD card is a 32GB Sandisk High Endurance card, and the results from H2testw are set out as follows:
For completeness in case I've been reinstalling the firmware wrongly, the steps I take are described below:
1. reformat SD card using windows default tool / guiformat2 (tried both, no different to the end result)
2. copy over the latest WiFi On firmware from the Blueskysea website (

3. insert the SD card into the dashcam while it is still powered off
4. turn on the dashcam by plugging into my computer / to the car
Thanks in advance!
