Hello everyone,
I have been using the Viofo A139 for a few years now without major issues, but recently, the dashcam started acting up with its wifi not showing up in my phone wifi list. The camera itself says that the wifi is on (blinking blue), but the phone doesn't see the network. I have tried several cards and phones to no avail.
I also have the impression that the camera goes into beep-beep mode more often than before (when the car is hot, it stops recording and does that beep-beep indefinitely. I don't know if those problems are related or not...

Anyone noticed anything similar?

Regards,
Jean

You may update the firmware and reset the camera to have a try. Even it is the same firmware version, updating may solve some unknown bugs.
 
I actually updated the firmware yesterday...and this was the worst move I could do 🥲. The camera reset all its settings and now parking mode is off and I have no way to turn it on... I could use the camera without WiFi, now I'm stuck 🫠.
