    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!

    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.

    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 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 🙏

    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.

    POSSIBLE SOLUTION: So I have watched every video on KZread 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!!
