Rollback firmware....rear cam problems

On 1.07, my backup camera worked without fail.  Previously, it was intermittent.  Sometimes, I would just get a black screen.  But the problem went away on 1.07.

 

On 1.08, this problem is happening again.  On initial start, when backing out...it works fine.  But if I try it again, whether it be holding the maps button or backup up again...I get the black screen.

 

I want to confirm that this is a software issue.

 

How can I rollback to 1.07?  Is it simply a matter of updating via SD card, or do I need to do a factory reset?

I'm not sure rollback is possible. I know that after 1.06 came out, Pioneer said it was impossible to go back to the firmware before it.

Im having issues with back up cam. But i think mine is coming from using factory cam linked to reverse light power instead of switched power. Are you using a aftermarket cam or factory. I noticed on the 1.06 release notes it says to use a aftermarket cam.

I'm using an aftermarket Kenwood.  I wanted to verify if it's software related before going back to installer to recheck connections.

My 3rd-party license plate frame camera has worked flawlessly with the original firmware and the two carplay updates.
