In order to use the rechargeable batteries of Hero 6,7,8 we need to update Hero 5 balck to v02.70 , But this isn't happening through the app, and to manually install we need to provide the 14-Digit Serial Number and since our cam is actually Hero 2018, I'm not able to download this update. Please help/advise to solve this.
Hungry Throttle After I downloaded and put the files on the micro sd card, then put the micro sd card back into GoPro 2018, then turned it on, no update started, GoPro just opened normally, in video mode, as I have that set as the default. I followed your tutorial exactly.
@@HungryThrottle Hi, Just wanted to update you on my hack; I was able to accomplish the task. The solution was I needed to have a completely empty micro SD card to put the hack files on. After I deleted everything on the micro SD card and then added ONLY THE ONE FOLDER with the hack files, put it back in my GoPro, turned it on, the hack/update went smooth. So now I have a GoPro Hero 5 Black with all the features I need, instead of the Hero 2018 with hardly any features. FYI: The tutorial I followed: th-cam.com/video/QIwWODopt48/w-d-xo.html Peace.
How do we connect it to the android app after updating?? Currently, my camera is connected as gopro 2018, if i update it to hero 5, do i have to connect it again as hero on the app?? Also will there be any problem due to serial number??
Thank you Brother from Philippines :) i bought Gopro Hero 2018 @ Lazada for $125, then i patched it using my adriod fone. From Hero 2018 to Hero 5. Allow me to use my Remo/ Gopro Remote! I love you braadeeer 👌😚 Thank you
Kool thanks bro. Now my gopro 2018 is 4k 👍👍

I doubt you will be able to update it unless someone mods the new firmware!
@@HungryThrottle hmm, do LMK in case you're able to find a hack for 2.7 as well
Can you tell if the Hero 5 remote control will work on my converted Hero 2018? Thanks
I don't have a remote to confirm
But what if I factory reset the camera? Does everthing delete?
Not tried 😋
👍
Bro thank you so much it worked I subscribed to your channel and I liked the video thank you so much again
No problem bro ❤️

Thank you!
Could you share the patch once again, because URL above doesn`t exist.
Is there still anything missing in it which hero 5 black has?
You tell me
@@HungryThrottle I think stabilisation at 4K 🤔maybe
success ,thank you
Enjoy 🔥
It’s 2 years later and GoPro must’ve updated their software to prevent this hack because it did not work for me.
What was the issue buddy?
Hungry Throttle After I downloaded and put the files on the micro sd card, then put the micro sd card back into GoPro 2018, then turned it on, no update started, GoPro just opened normally, in video mode, as I have that set as the default. I followed your tutorial exactly.

@@TC_Conner hows the update so far I read that it gets the camera really hot is this true let me know would really like to update the camera
HOW CAN I TURN BACK TO GOPRO HERO 2018?
Never tried going back to stock firmware
Hungry Throttle I have problem with quick capture and the latest 2.70 version (updation) is not able to install.
I tried doing this but the go pro just started normally im not sure what im doing wrong. thank you
Just try the procedure it should work successfully
My gopro 2018 model I use your formula but my gopro is not updated
If you follow all step properly your gopro should update without issues
Can we do this without pc or laptop? Please reply brother!
I would suggest laptop/pc because format won't perform well in phone!
Can you please send me link of video footage of hero modified
Check my next video bro it’s in my channel
I have som gopro maps/files that cant delete from my SD card. What to do? where do I place the UPDATE map?
What are those map files?
@@HungryThrottle DCIMP, MISC, Get started with gopro,
Sorry, I meant: maps: MISC and DCIM and a URL; Get started with go pro
@@HungryThrottle cant add the map UPDATE or files either
Format your SD card first after taking backup and then copy the patch files
Hi nice video bro. Can we get superview on hero 2018 after the firmware update ?
Yes you do get do check my other video where I have provided footage to compare
Does it actually save regular 120fps footage in 1080 which you can slow down 4 times? Just like the Hero 5 Black?
Yes it does

How much time does it take to update??
Around 10 mins
I saw some videos telling that it takes around 5 mins n I just want to know
@@HungryThrottle I will try updating my gopro but I'm also scared

Do I need to factory reset it after update??
No don’t

Is slow motion working?
Everything works fine I will update a the slowmo clip! For now you can check my video tittled ‘hanging bridge Kemthoor’ for video sample
can you show how to set slow mo 240fps. Thank you.@@HungryThrottle
ss yy set resolution to 720p and frame rate to 240fps and then you can make it slow mo in editing software!
Do the voice commands work ?
Yes it works
Please upload footage from hacked firmware
Sure buddy I will upload some clips soon 👌🏻
Can we download the file in phone?
You can provided you have a file extractor in your phone and you know what you are doing 👌🏻
looks like slow mo does not work.
ss yy you need to edit in external editor to get it working
cool hacks!
Thank you 😁
