Where to get DDR initialization sequence and HAL patch for GoPro Hero 3+ Silver?

evilwombat commented 8 years ago

Oh, sorry, I had misread your question. I heard people had success with using the H2 sequence for "Hero3 Silver". But, it will not work for Hero3 Plus Silver. They're quite the different beast, I'm afraid.

Please be aware that I hadn't made HAL patches for H3+S. I generally make the HAL patches by pulling a running HAL from a working camera, but DDR would be the first thing you need. In the past, I had been making my DDR init sequences stepping through the bootloader code in a simulator, and making a note of all the accesses that happen. I don't think I ever posted one for H3+S, but I also hadn't brought up the rest of H3+S, either. Though I own one now, I am afraid this sort of thing is more complicated for me now, due to work reasons, and I don't want to get in trouble.

What is your end goal? Are you trying to reflash / unbrick a camera?

@evilwombat unbrick a camera. It happened this situation. The camera worked fine, and I started to update via GoPro App in JUS. And after a while put in the stick and the camera freezes after peredervgivaniya batteries stopped responding.

Hmmm.... sorry, I have never gotten a H3+S successfully booted over USB. I experimented with it a little, and gotten as far as loading my kernel, but I hadn't gotten around to bringing it up further. Plus, I'm not sure how well the existing A7 kernel is compatible with H3+S - maybe that's part of why mine didn't work. Sadly, work makes this a bit of a complicated situation... by the way, where are you located?

Hello, evilwombat! After updating the firmware, WiFi stopped working in my camera H3+S. I got nulls in my /MISC/version.txt file on my memory card.

"info version":"1.1",
"firmware version":"HD3.10.03.02",
"wifi version":"0.0.0.0",
"wifi bootloader version":"0.0.0",
"wifi mac":"000000000000",
"camera type":"HERO3+ Silver Edition",

Please any ideas why this happened? How to fix it?
