Thanks to all for the various A119 Firmware improvements. As a new A119 user, I REALLY appreciate what you all are doing to improve the A119 series. Unfortunately I can't contribute much with firmware tests to upload as I have pretty slow internet service. But I may try a shorter edit once I figure that software out?
One question or rather request about firmware modifications. Is it possible to change via firmware, the Microphone on screen symbol to say Orange or Red when OFF, vs. having just a thin line through it? Or turning on the LED Microphone exterior button when On like the recording button? Reason being, is that I cannot see the line without reading glasses & I don't always have those in the car. Already I have made several mistakes of turning the microphone Off when I wanted it On & the reverse. I have found that using the Microphone button while driving (when Safe to do so) to On, allows me to make a recorded voice note of a license plate # or description of the situation. I find that often while driving, head on vehicle license plate #'s are not readable. I have security reasons & the advice from police in my very rural area for trying to keep track of unknown vehicles, plate #'s & people.
An orange Off colour or red LED On colour would make the Microphone function much more positive. If not, I have put in a request to Viofo support as well, but I see this mod thread being far more active, so I thought of asking here. I'd do it if I knew how. Of course the other option is to just leave the sound on all the time, which is my work around. Thank you.
Also, is there a tutorial somewhere to learn how to edit the firmware oneself or to help here?
