I don't know if I can help but here go's........ I own several Mobius cameras... I only buy them from one source Novotm LLC. I get excellent response from them I would like to take a stab at your problem.
1. have you been running the software recommended for Mobius?
2 when you turn off the camera do you turn it off by pressing the appropriate button or by pulling the plug?
3 the battery could be the issue if you have been using it aggressively it may be dead or dying. it is replaceable easy to do. have you updated the camera from the software?
have you verified that the micro chip is good? and properly formatted from the software
ps I didn't read all your post it was a bit long and I'm short on time.
cheers...
