Tonight in my other vehicle with the other camera I made a 30 minute drive and the g-sensor stayed on high. I will say I'm running the modified firmware but the only thing modified are IQ settings.
The g-sensor should instantly switch to the user's setting when it exits parking mode.
The A119S does G-sensor does not
instantly switch the User's setting back from "High Sensitivity". There is something else at play here which I don't understand.
How did you determine that the G-sensor did not switch back to the user setting?
If your G-sensor stays on "High Sensitivity" for any significant length of time past 5-10 minutes after resuming normal recording, and that was not your original setting, I would go to the menu setting and reset it to Low or whatever you are using. If for some unknown reason, the original User setting has changed to "High Sensitivity" and stays there for an unreasonable amount of time, it may be permanently changed until you reset it using the menu.
If you continue to experience this problem, keep reporting it regardless of my conclusions.
Another thing you might try is for you to deliberately set the G-sensor to "High Sensitivity" and drive the same route and compare G-sensor activated event recordings to what you are seeing now.
Another thing that might seem odd (not tested on this firmware version yet) while Parking Mode is enabled, is that even if the GPS setting is set to OFF, Parking Mode will switch the GPS setting to "High Sensitivity" when a Standby/Time-lapse mode period is initiated. It also normally switches back sometime after Normal recording resumes. It has been reported by
@Gibson99 that with his GPS menu setting set to "OFF", he has on a couple of occasions experienced a G-sensor event recording during trips traveling on a freeway with somewhat boring scenery. I think he reported it as a bug but we also discussed that Parking Mode may have activated during the drive (kind of rare but it can happen under certain conditions) to cause the GPS setting to switch temporarily to "High Sensitivity" resulting in the G-sensor event recording(s).
So far, I have found no significant difference in the operation of Parking Mode for the B4.02 Firmware {Edit relative to the current official firmware V2.61}. For my own and your satisfaction, I will do a few more tests, mainly regarding the timing of the switch, and report the results shortly.
