Hi
I've had a Thinkware F770 for about 18 months, and it's been flawless until about a week ago. I got the usual 'regularly format memory card for data integrity' reminder, and formatted the card using the format button in the same fashion I have always done. The following day, the error repeated itself, and again I formatted the card with the button. The error occurred again the following day, a duff card I thought. So I switched my spare Thinkware branded memory card into the camera and the issue continues to repeat itself.
So I put the original memory card into my pc with the intention of doing a full format on it but noticed that the dates on all the recordings are 2079/2080. The dates on the files prior to this have always been correct. I looked at the gps information whilst connect to the camera via smart phone app, and it is showing the incorrect time as well, but not by a hour or multiple thereof (which would perhaps indicate incorrect time zone) but by like 40 minutes. I can't see anywhere in the app where I can set the date or time manually and no doubt this is why I get a daily nagging to format the memory card.
So I'm wondering if anyone else has had this same weird fault with incorrect year being shown on all the recordings? I have tried the following so far with no success:
1) Full format using a pc
2) Another new Thinkware branded memory card
3) Changing the time zone settings
4) Enabling/Disabling daylight savings option
5) Upgrading firmware to latest version
