Viofo A229 Plus & A229 Pro Firmware Updates

After the v1.3 firmare update that added Bluetooth button support and a bunch of new features/settings , Viofo has shipped another firmware update to the A229 Plus and Pro variants in Dec-2024. This one looks like a bug fix version (v1.3.1) with no major feature additions.

Change Log:

1. Added: Turn on/off the parking mode by BTR200 remote
2. Fixed: Other bugs

Steps to Install:

1. Download the firmware files from Viofo - https://www.viofo.com/pages/firmware
2. Format an SD card in Windows (exFAT file system).
3. Copy both the firmware files (front & back) onto the SD card.
4. Power OFF the dashcam and insert the SD card without removing it from the car.
5. Power ON the dashcam. It automatically installs the front unit firmware and reboots itself.
6. It then pushes the rear firmware to the rear cam, followed by installation & an automatic reboot.

I did not get time to review the menus or video quality after this update. I will post here if I find anything interesting in the coming days.
