    Works! I just tried this and it worked! Taking the battery out and plugging the charger in... Took a few mins before the GoPro turned on. I let the battery stay out for about 10mins. GoPro came on without the battery, then after another 10 mins I put the battery in and it recognized the batter at 0%. Thanks! - GoPro8 black

    My GoPro Hero 8 did exactly this. I had only just set up the Auto Upload while it had low battery and went completely flat. No biggy but it appeared it was so flat that while the battery was in it wouldn’t charge at all, no flash on the LEDs, no activity at all. I thought I had bricked it! The step that worked for me, was plugging the cable in without a battery, it powered up to my relief, I then reinserted the battery while plugged in and on, it then started charging from 1%, somehow I had gone beyond the battery’s critical voltage and it wouldn’t accept a charge! It was charging from my PS4 which may have a lower output. But anyway, thanks mate you fixed it!
