- VIOFO A129 DUO, Thinkware F770 1CH & 2CH
In regards to people using 128GB+ sd cards, my user manual states that the maximum capacity for the F770 is 64GB sd cards. Perhaps this is why the cards can be initially used ok but then starts throwing the error message again? Is there something I'm missing? Has Thinkware extended the capacity? As I can't find an offical Thinkware 64GB sd card for the F770 either...
I have used a 32GB Samsung Evo+ UHS-1 U1 sd card in both of my F770 dashcams with no issues since I bought them 2 years ago and they are both on firmware version 1.00.08. About two months ago I bought 2 of the 64GB versions of the same Samsung sd cards and they have both worked flawlessly in both dash cams. I think as these cards are within the dash cams maximum capacity and they also are UHS-1 U1 cards like the official Thinkware cards, they seem to be working with no issues. If the F770 can take a 128GB card, I'd love to get one but don't want to risk it in case it doesn't like the higher capacity.
I have even changed the date in the SDCARD_FORMAT_TIME.bin file to a year from now and haven't had the "reformat" message come on for the last 2 months.
