A229 Pro, Plus, Tele and Ultra firmware files differ, and the front and rear cameras use different files. VIOFO warns not to update a functioning rear camera with its listed rear release; follow support instructions if troubleshooting it. Current front-update instructions warn against downgrading. Back up clips and settings, maintain power and recheck recording, HDR, audio and parking after an update.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor passenger recording, the separate A229 Plus 3CH kit adds a 1080p infrared cabin camera, with all three views recording at 30FPS. For higher front resolution, the A229 Pro uses an 8MP IMX678 front sensor for 4K instead of this Plus model's 5MP IMX675 for 2K.
