The battery charges to full capacity. When I turn on the 720 the logo "Get Out There" shows on the screen for a few seconds then goes away and only a lighted screen shows. From there I cannot turn it off, select menu, record, or anything else. I have to pull the battery to turn it off. What can I do to fix this problem?

Same problem with not switching on, I really wish drift would think about doing plenty of research before just bring it out at market theirself to hear absolute bloody nightmare when it first come out and didn't get much better years later everything always seems to be rushed

Seen lots of comments about the cameras not turning on or not charging. I've had both on a couple of occasions, and both times I've solved it by pressing the start button and keeping it depressed until camera starts. Really simple. Hope it worls for others.
