Gopro hero3+ black edition
Hello, i have trouble with hero3+, the WiFi has stopped working, i mean i cant see it. i modified your code in gptool.c, to load h3pb-v104-hal-reloc.bin and init ddr for hero3pb i successfully run linux, but i dont know how to examine the problem, there is no wifi interface in it. and it does not load any driver for it. can somebody suggest something?
Cool! Glad you got it going. However, the Linux kernel does not have a driver for GoPro's wifi controller. In fact, I believe the wifi "controller" is actually a separate microcontroller (Kinetis K60) with its own separate firmware. It has to be this way because the wifi controller needs to be able to run independently and turn on the camera if need be.
If you are having trouble with the wifi, I suggest contacting GoPro themselves, since this may be a problem with the hardware. You could also try to reinstall the wifi firmware (that is, just do a full update of the camera using GoPro's standard procedure, and this will reflash the wifi controller as well). As long as the wifi bootloader isn't messed up, I expect this will work.
I have tried to update full firmware several times, but wifi does not want to be updated) it shows wifi test fail. GoPro tells to send it to them. for now i dont want to send it. thanks for your reply).
I would suggest sending it to gopro. The wifi update mechanism is "weird" and kind of roundabout, and if it doesn't work, I say send it to them. If you get into the camera shell, you can try the commands: mesg rtos on t k20 aseq but even then, the update for the wifi can be sort of flaky.
Thanks for your suggestion. for now i have got used to using without wifi.
Hi, evilwombat! Please help me, i try update my H3+B, but it randomly show me this:
