I sold me VA-400 due to two reasons. The first was the image quality was not that great. The second, and bigger, problem was the never-ending problems with getting the scope to work with any Android device using a direct USB connection.
I tried every camera program that Oasis Scientific recommended and none of them worked consistently with either my Samsung S10 phone or my Samsung A7 tablet via the USB port. The camera image would not even appear on any of the dozen or so apps I installed. Occasionally, the OTG View program would show the image and I could run it for a short period of time and then the image would disappear.
So I sold the VA-400 and bought the VA-980 v5 brand new. I received it today and am more than a little frustrated that I am having the same problem. When plugged directly into the USB port, the camera will not connect, or display the camera image using the recommended OTG View program. So far I have tried two other "recommended by OA" programs that don't work either.
Is anyone using this borescope and able to connect to a Samsung device? If so, can you tell me what camera app you are using?
Thx
