That's fine great Stan - what I also was after was which was best to choose - I am guessing the one that 'drives' the cigar lighter socket, but would welcome any comments - don't really want to mess to much with FFRR electrics in the unknown -----------------------------

Your comments appreciated - it's running now off the fight socket till I get the fuse bypass in so if it ain't broke.....

Ain't it friendly here? In another thread I'll catch peeps up with my FFRR history

BTW thanks Stan -----------------------------

I bought a decent one and I leave it fixed in the car. It's not really that noticeable but if in doubt it's so easy to remove when you leave the vehicle parked.

Road angel hd camera with cigar lead in to centre console. When I leave the car I unplug the socket although you can programme the electronics to isolate the socket if it's set to be live after you lock the car as many are. 2009 Vogue TDV8 Nara Bronze

Well ordered an 0803 mini dash cam a few weeks back after reading about it on here and a few other sites.
But I just had to get rid of the default boot/shut-down image.
So of to the dash cam site I went to find out how to change it for something more fitting.
Download the software so I could edit the file and re-flashed the firmware on the cam all done in about 30min

Old image



New Image

Hi All

As promised I have put together some instructions on how to edit the start up and shut down logos for the the mini 0803 dashcam this should also work on the 0801 as well but I have never tried it.

I have put together a 10 minute video showing you the basic steps as well as links for getting the tools needed and latest firmware.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any bricked devices, dead SD Cards or anything else that might happen as a result of flashing firmwares you modified with this tool to your dashcam.

Firmware
WARNING! MAKING CHANGES TO YOUR FIRMWARE ARE PERFORMED AT YOUR OWN RISK. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DASH CAM AS A RESULT OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Links to firmware downloads for 0801:

Firmware Update Instructions:

You may need to rename the firmware file to firmware bin
The camera should prompt to update automatically (yes/no)
After the firmware update is completed be sure to delete the files or you will be prompted to update again.

Thanks to the people on dashcamtalk.com where all this info has come from especially Tobi@s for the A7tool
