FIX GOPRO HERO 5, 6, 7 OR 8 THAT WON'T TURN ON OR CHARGE

[@TheThespianTrucker]

I just bought a used Go Pro, and know absolutely nothing about them. I assumed they had an internal battery that could not be removed. Thank you for this video!

[@adamgdev]

Seriously, nothing ground breaking here. Thanks for wasting my time!

[@ilocanoako11]

wjat if the go pro will not turn on without the battery when you plug it..

[@BoboMedia007]

Thank you, your video helped me fix my go pro!

[@phill7487]

Helpful, figured you’d have a different solution rather than buying a new one, but it makes sense

[@supermibrasojv7419]

buying a new battery was a solution wtf!! wasting our time to view

[@jakesonkaze]

Thanks sir

Hello your video is pretty nice and helpful, however, I tried using all the technique that you showed above. All my lights are blinking but the screen is still not working. I got my Gopro about two years ago and barely used it. I did have two batteries that are both brand new and for some reason my screen still won't turn on. Is there a way you could advice another tip to use for it to work? Thank you so much.

[@BALASTECH]

Riz Tecson hi, i would highly suggest to contact the gopro chat support for that. For sure they will replace it. Just prepare a video and the official receipt. My gorpo a year ago replaced them even my warranty is over and also my friends gopros.

[@HelgaBabushka]

@@BALASTECH You're amazing for getting back to me right away, I appreciate it very much. I did contact the GoPro help center and told me to reformat it which I did. Second, I was contacted by the GoPro by them that I have to ship back the GoPro with my own expense and they would try to fix it, however, if they can't fix it then I would have to pay again to be shipped back to me with my own expense. TBH, I basically tried every thing and I don't know what to do. And I don't really want to risk of spending so much money by sending it not knowing it can't be fixed. Plus they told me that since my GoPro is over two years, they can't replace it for me which is a bummer. 😔😔😔 Thank you again 🙏

[@BALASTECH]

@@HelgaBabushka sorry to hear that. If you have a iFix store near you it would be a greater shop for repair or for checkup. Or any store that is partnered with gopro for repair.

[@HelgaBabushka]

@@BALASTECH Yes, I'll check around my area. Salamat po 🙏

POSSIBLE SOLUTION: So I have watched every video on KZbin with no luck.. I follow the steps exactly and nothing! I have a hero 7 that wouldn’t turn on. Like I previously said I’ve done everything I could find online, I have 5 hero 7’s and this is the only one that wouldn’t turn on, I’ve tried other charging cables, I’ve tried switching batteries NOTHING!! BUT ITS FIXED! And here’s what I did, I removed the battery, removed the flash card, reinstalled the battery, (did not put the card back in) and plugged in the charging cable in my Apple 2a wall charger. 20min later I hit the mode button to see if it turns on and the sucker turned on! This hero 7 hasn’t worked in almost a year!! And now it’s as good as new. If you are experiencing the same problem and the 10 second button hold doesn’t work try what I did!!

[@richardbrown986]

Worked , thx for the video . Your awesome

[@eddyjammal]

Does it really need a 5min video to tell us to change the battery man?

[@Zoofactory]

Go Pro 5 Lights work. Camera appears to work. LCD screen worked until micro SD card was (possibly improperly) inserted. LCD screen worked before. Now it does not. Battery removal does not correct the screen issue. Battery is good. Is a hard factory reset possible without the LCD screen? Thx any and all.

[@sorrybut_TRUTH_hurts]

hey hope this helps, happened to me the same case today, what i do is, connect the gopro without sd witb gopro usb c cable not some generic usb c cable. then reset gopro, then connect sd. then reset sd card

[@henrymatthews7837]

Thanks, I was really nervous and my parents could’ve killed me

[@gemiahfuriscal1338]

Thank you so much...it helps alot ..

[@pawanpowar5472]

Thanxxx a lott this video helped me to find out my prblm

[@Conflictproject69]

my go pro wont turn on without the battery in ether iv no idea whats happened it was on 1 percent left it on charge came back and its just dead nothing works

[@aidenpowers2788]

I had the same issue with a brand new GoPro, but I was able to fix the original battery by using some good old fashion saliva. The battery refused to charge and the GoPro didn’t even recognize that a battery was in it, however, once I licked the metal part on the bottom of the battery and stuck it in the GoPro it magically started working. Hopefully this helps someone lol.

Thank you for your help.

[@cyruswafu]

Hello! it happen to me, when i plug the charger it only one blink of red light then it wont open..it's the battery problem? please reply..thank you!

[@BALASTECH]

try removing the battery and plug in your charger then turn it on. if it turns on then maybe the battery is faulty and need to replace.

[@cyruswafu]

Thank you..battery problem nga! :)

[@zayahbeatz]

Viral Cloud i took the battery out and plugged it in to the charger then it turned on but as soon as i put the battery in it shuts off pls reply

Very helpful thank you.

[@rhorho4816]

Sooo, this video helped me out with the battery issues, but my GoPro won't even turn on with the battery out and plugged in. Does that mean I have to break down and buy a new one?

[@BALASTECH]

No you don’t have to. Please contact gorpo customer support via chat, they can help you replace your gopro like mine

[@rohanfarro4338]

My GoPro Hero 5 suddenly dead.. it just wont charge with the battery in.. or even without the battery when connected to charging cable it will not boot up even holding the power on mode button (I even tried without the SD card) do you have any fix to the problem?????????

[@MTallica1985]

You need to hold down the power button that's how you turn it on

[@dimasgraha9301]

So , actually the problems is battery ?

[@BALASTECH]

In my case, yes the battery.

[@wheezyzeph8426]

my problem is when i plugged the power source without battery my gopro hero 5 wont open

[@thatguysalbbl3270]

I just a go pro hero 5 on sale and battery is not charging. The solution of buy another battery doesn’t work. Return and get my money back sounds better

[@rachie0914]

thanks man, same problem here

[@yurihahnjohari846]

3 years later. this video probably gave me an excuse not to buy the newer gopro. time to find other means to wreck my gopro hero 5. lol

You can try to contact gopro customer support so they will replace your gorpo.

[@mads6814]

ALRIGHT SO!

[@engineerpete7]

It's some bullshit that GoPro sells cameras with dogshit batteries you can't use or charge out the box. Fucking $250 piece of tech that can't be used with in a couple hours of receiving.

[@frankbergess8460]

didn't help as my gopro 5 wont' work, changed batteries 3 times, rest buttons, removed sd card NONE helped so sorry but this video was uselss to me

[@BALASTECH]

It might be damaged by water. Try contacting customer service mine, was replace with new gorpo hero 5 when I reported my problem.

BALASTECH also there is literally 0 sine of life in my go pro :((((

@@cobra2d924 So sad to hear that. Its not really nesseary to have a computer, you can directly plug it in to your charger.

Additional question is your new battery original? or third party. Last time when I try the third party it didn't show any life.
