Just picked one up today after seeing this video and reading online. 179 instead of 330 in the same mall. Updated in 5 mins now a full Hero 5 😀
do you have any problems?
@@dasistwalter6417 none ...5 months of usage
Das Ist Walter it works
Good stuff dude. I just got hold of one for £75. Almost paid £180 for a Hero 7 White edition yesterday 👍
GPS modul works?
Has the new firmware version 2.7 been modified yet?
i would love to know if you found 2.7 patched too, please LMK
Me too
Count me in too. Although the unit says there is an update. Reluctant to give it ok for update as I don't want to brick the unit.
Anyone tried this? drivers.softpedia.com/get/SCANNER-Digital-CAMERA-WEBCAM/GoPro/GoPro-HERO5-Black-Camera-Firmware-02-70.shtml
@@raminlive I tried not happening
Is there anyway to undo the hack as it won't allow me to do the battery update
Is there a way to reinstall the original software from the computer or something similar? an error occurred during the hack and my gopro no longer works
Did you ever sort this out?
I love you, i love you soo much, i got this for my birthday and i loved it but it was missing fetures id like and had a low res (obviously you already know) and went in a drawer for 2 years hopefully when i het home ill do this and be able to use
Sir, Does it still running good or you have any problem after update?please let me know
I have upgraded it and ders no problem at all
@@shillongnatureasmr3602 how do you updated it
I don't know if I should buy gopro hero5 or gopro 2018 I did not understand the video well because I do not speak English well .help!
Have you noticed any difference in battery life after the hack? Do you still have stabilization?
Yes it has a stabilization, the battery drains fast if you record in a higher resolution
So.. where do u guys download the firmware? Care for the link ?
I bought this 2018 thing second hand, but they claimed it was a hero 5.
Didn't get scammed that badly after all :)
is it safe to update for 2.7?
Hi there, I am considering to buy a GoPro hero 2018 in order to “update” it to black! Is it still possible? What about this new firmware version that people complaining about? Thanks!
Just did it. It's possible. I don't know however what will happen if you update afterwards to v2.7
thanks!
@@oneistar6661 am i still able to do it today ?
@@natewitdaflu9940 Sure, I'm still using it.
@@oneistar6661 just did it but cant figure out how to update to v 2.7 is it even possible ?
hi sir how is the performance as of 2020 after you upgraded it, im planning to buy HERO 2018 $140 is still a good choice?
Yes
This hack still works. But you can't update the firmware on GPH5. But still works on the standard GPH5 firmware. Anyone did try updating firmware up to date? Thanks.
Can you tell if the Hero 5 remote control will work on my converted Hero 2018? Thanks
but the problem is now battery with blue strip is now working on it
and is it safe to update it on 2.70 update ?
What about the stabilization, is the Hero 5 stabilization software worse?
Mine asks for a new firmware update for the Hero 5 version 2.70.... can you install this savely?
same here. still looking for 2.7 firmware modified files. Anyone?
@@thelittle No I didn't find any save firmware updates yet.. I will wait..
@@xplode2006 there are some tutorials explaining how to modify the parameters on the gopro update file to fit the Hero 2018 but I think too risky to try by myself and brick the camera. If anyone wants to try.. lisandru.eu/hacks-and-software/gopro-hero-1080p-2018-to-hero-5-black-4k-firmware-patch.html
I just bought Yi 4K ...coz gopro 2018 quality wasn't great... didn't know about this hack!
Hi can I put the firmware update in my sd card and just update my 2018 iv got the gopro hero 5 black firmware would my gopro hero 2018 update if I put the gopro hero 5 firmware update on sd card for my gopro hero 2018
Hi Remote control work too?
Does it unlock the stabilization of the hero 5 black too?
I can't even get it to open up. UGH! It says swipe down and tap. Can't get past it. I think I give up.
Does it really works like hero 5?
Yes
Mind me knowing if its safe to upgrade its firmware to the newest version if I’ve already hacked its firmware to become a Hero5? Thanks man! 😁
Can’t test that I don’t own his anymore. It should work I see no reason why it wouldn’t work. The hardware is a Hero5 no differences there, and after the Hero 2018 to Hero5 hack it is fully a Hero5
Does it still work I got a steal of a deal for this camera 30 bucks and want to upgrade
It should but I don't have it anymore to confirm. There is a newer hero5 firmware so this will have changed slightly just get newest version to install.
does it still work please?
Cool stuff John
Do hero 2018 has stereo recording after updating
Hey man how to get the version 2.7 on this please help!
Theres an update on gopro app. Have you updated?
Recon _v I tried to update the camera but it is not getting installed it’s showing something is wrong!
@@adhirajkumar4177 model number and serial number mismatch wont let it download officially. Dont update via app
Recon _v so how do I go about it do you have link to download that
@@adhirajkumar4177 no no , all you can do is keep it to hero 5. Dont try to update officially
Did you have any issues with the battery?
yes me too
Will it work with realsteady go software?
Of course, its basically a hero 5 without the label at the side after the firmware update
After apdating... can i use gopro mic adpter?
Its posible to downgrade? I have hero 2018 and updated to hero 5?
Thats cool - I just bought a GPH7, but if I had have seen this beforehand, I might have saved some money and bought two of these instead for different angles. Reminds me of the days I use to hack peoples Ericsson T10's into T18's which unlocked a pile of extra features. Like the 2018 --> GPH5, the T10 was just a gimped version of the T18, the hardware was identical :)
Don't worry about missing out on this deal, the GPH7 is better in every way.
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.
You solve ? (Sorry for nad english)
@@pushtoshiftCSGO no man, couldn't find any fix, you can either use the new batteries or update it to hero 5 not both:(
drivers.softpedia.com/get/SCANNER-Digital-CAMERA-WEBCAM/GoPro/GoPro-HERO5-Black-Camera-Firmware-02-70.shtml try here
@@vlaur it works perfectly?
@@andychen12 didn't try yet. I don't know if is working.
Have followed all procedures but the Hero2018 wont update. What am I missing
la puedo usar como webcam usando el cable Tipo C ?
Ironically a GoPro Hero 5 refurb is actually cheaper than a new GPH 2018.
Very nice gopro big thumbs up my friend XD
Does the firmware hack improve the quality of the EIS too?
The 5 has terrible EIS. Get a 7 or above.
What about the external Mic compatibility ??
After upgrading to a 5 yes, you get all 5 black features. All of them. It is a 5 black hardware wise.
Luego del hack de la go pro 2018 puedes agregarle micrófono externo?
hello, I have successfully done the hack. when I connect with the gopro application an update appears for version 2.70 is it safe to make an update?
Yes it’s a Hero5 black now it will accept the update. I don’t own mine anymore to do it.
Did you manage to update to 2.7 as i have gone through the app and says its done but says 2.6 in the about this go pro
I searched this up after seeing that on the app it shows that it can shoot 4K but apparently it cant on the gopro. Thanks for the help!
yes u ca you just need to lower the frame rate
Very cool 👍
It works!!!!!!
Hey can some one help me It asks me for an update to 2.70 but I can’t do it pls help ?
So what is the difference between it and hero 5 black? how can i know if i bought gopro hero 2018 modded with original hero 5 black?
By checking serial number is the only way to confirm that. They are otherwise identical.
you can se hero 5 written on the left side, lens height
Will this do the same for hero7 white make it black edition somehow?
No, they are completely different cameras, sorry.
the gps isnt working right? like if you wanna put gps stickers (telemetry, gauges, speedometer)?
Dwitek Rizkiputra the gps has been working fine and i can add the stickers to my footage
@@AspectLuna yep. But sometimes the gps wont show up only when i edit the video using mac/pc, u experience it too?
so you dont share the firmware..
I have no idea if this still works in 2023. IMO anything below a Hero 7 is now obsolete for action cam. Hypersmooth changed the game. You want that feature.
After hack 2018 to H5, does it functions solomotion videos?
Roshan Thapa yes slow motion videos do still work
Is this still applicable for April 2020.
I don’t see why not, it should work.
@@netcruzer thanks
The Coachlok did you try this yet? I just got one today.
@@gofast8144 Still waiting for mine to come. it is on shipping now. Once it arrives will try to update the firmware.
The Coachlok report back if ya can sir. I updated to firmware version 01.10. It looks like this was firmware for hero 2018 up-to hero 7 black. Hopefully I didn’t update and now I can’t pull this off.
After update to Hero 5 in connect menu has got remote connect like hero 5?
yes its work perfect
OK. But how do you get a gopro 5 serial number?
Keep 'er Lit. Let 'er Rip! I don’t know if you still need it, but I can pm you a link since posting one would most likely get me in trouble
I got 9ne in brandnew condition at a pawn shop for 140
Its a gimick or what? They say hardware gopro hero 5 and 2018 is same but different is firmware downgrade??
Correct. They are the exact same camera.
Can i have a mic set if i upgraded the firm ware to hero 5?
Yes. This is a Hero5 in disguise. The hardware is the same.
@@netcruzer oh big thanks!!!
Ty worked . But i couldn't edit using quick app after the update to hero 5 black. Am i the only one who can't?
and the last updated ?? work ??
? It updates to the latest firmware for Hero5 Black. V2.60 Oct 19 2017
the title of the video is misleading, you didint do the procedure due to "legal" reasons, i can see that, but then again i would have worded the title differently, there are several how to videos on RUclips for this already, i feel as if this is just a hook for views on a topic well known and publicized .
anyhow, not going to "unlike" the vid, but it was a waste of 12 min of my life when i could have been actually performing the hack rather then have an informational pamphlet about it.
Thanks for the info!
Wondering the same, will this hack still work? Can only find info from about a year ago!
@@jxdigital I did mine with in the last month... So yes it still works!
Hey does gopro hero2018 can be hacked to get the 4k 60fps?
No. 4K 30fps in wide FoV is max. But you can get 2.7K 60fps in all FoV modes and that my favourite resolution to work with.
Hi, I am using GopPro Hero (2018), I want to install GoPro Hero 5 software on my camera. When I install Hero 5 Software on Hero (2018), does the Looping record feature also turn on? Does the GPS feature also come with automatic location insertion? Thanks
If you upgrade it of course it will be exactly as a hero5
Bro I can't update 2.70 firmware update. Can it be possible to use extra batteries
did you ever find an answer? I am wondering the same thing
@@Marinated-js6oc no dude.. Still using as it is.. But its working fine.. But i am worrying about extra batteries.. Some people experience if you use gopro battery it does not work.. But some other generic battery it will work
@@ptr1518 let me know if you find any batteries!
@@Marinated-js6oc I am buying telesin brand batteries
Finally got it. Just ordered it in 2021 for around 120$
Where did you find it new ?
@@Peakabike maybe i got lucky. I was sitting around in a mall
It*
Gopro is not shady, it is just marketing ;) It is cheaper to make 1 product and sell it in 4 different "package" by removing some functionality proportional to the price value. This allow a bigger range of user to get their hand on Gopro's products.
They're shady lmao
You ever wonder why if superview is sooo good why won't most action cameras use them?
@@kittikorn6674 why superview would make them shady? And they won't say its bad, its their product.
will this work on gopro hero 7 silver
izhaar izhxxr no since the hero 7 line uses different hardware as compared to the hero 2018, this would not work.
any solution?
izhaar izhxxr if you want a hero 5 black you’d need to obtain a hero 2018 (which I have found for under $100) or buy a hero 5 black. Since the hero 7 silver has a totally different interface and different chipsets, it means that the firmware most not work. Hope this helps!
Aspect Luna thank you! you’re cool follow on ig shafeeksophie
@@izhaarizhxxr1663 thanks! I followed you on ig (J._Luna)
Its 12 megapixels?
After upgrade hack
@JA 6dr5u7 facts
Wow!
any one know if this works on session 5?
No I don’t believe it can. Not for session.
😁👍Now that's a great mod!
Legit?
Will the external mic adaptor works on this mod
Yes
GoPro sucks what am I missing?
I bought a hero 2018 a couple of days ago, it is interesting to see, but, as far as I'm not aware, to install on the hero 5 I need the serial number of some hero 5? how can i find it?
and the second question, I see that now 2018 has 12 mega pixels instead of 10, is it nothing to do with a little bit of optics and not just the software? if someone can answer it would be great. thank you
You can find a serial number of a gopro 5 by looking on google images, etc. Not sure about the megapixel question.
jodythomas hey, tnx but i did it already. just download a wholl folder named "update" from somewhere", format my sd, and unzip all files, copy to sd and run go pro, when gopro install that it wake up with hero 5. unboleverbol how it ease and save the mony. great. thanks a lot
This video could of been 3 minutes long. Appreciate the information but come on, that was a LOT of waffle...
THIS IS DANGEROUS I HAVE WATCHED OTHER VIDS AND THEY ALL SAY THAT THIS CAN BRAKE THE CAMERA!
I don't know if I should buy gopro hero5 or gopro 2018 I did not understand the video well because I do not speak English well .help!
I don't know if I should buy gopro hero5 or gopro 2018 I did not understand the video well because I do not speak English well .help!
Buy neither in 2023. Much better options now. Get a Hero 8 or newer or an Insta360 Go. Hypersmooth image stabilization changes the game. You want that.
