    which battery model is on the board so as not to lose the settings and date / time? I need to change mine, but before opening it, I already wanted to buy the battery. If you can help, thank you

    Now i know why GoPro charge a premium price for this superb sub compact video camera.
    The technology and research into designing this camera must have been very intense.
    Love mine, it takes incredible video.

    Hi, do you know what chip is responsible for the LCD light? I have a Hero 4 Silver and the light is so dim, almost looks off. Have replaced the LCD but the problem never got solved, I think it has to do something from the board. Any info where to look at would be appreciated, thanks!!

    Hi, could i get the mode button flex with you? Thanks!

    why does the hero 4 silver have a touchscreen but the hero4 black doesnt? when the black is better

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Guy Ravid says:

    Great video!!
    Can someone help me identify the wifi button connector? It got damaged and i wish to disable it

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Adam Haas says:

    Would you happen to have a help video for reassembling? After I put it back together, it will not turn on.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A D Martin says:

    Your video is essentially useless. You did nothing but skip directly over the parts anyone needing to tear this unit down for repair actually needs to see.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A D Martin says:

    "Got the top connector board out.."…what a jackass. You'll spend 10 minutes looking at a shiny CCD, but then just skip over how the hell you are supposed to get the interconnect board screws out without breaking the lens assembly.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars LastHumansGarage says:

    i watched the whole thing waiting to see how to replace my rear LCD screen… but it never came..
