Barry Ashcroft Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 What's the version number of the latest firmware?
Rab (bombero) Reid Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Latest version is: firmware: HD3.03.02.00 wifi: 3.4.2.9
AdamR Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 Thanks Rob! That's the version I am on, and have a copy to send if you need Barry
Barry Ashcroft Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Cheers guys mine already has that version so maybe that's why the update just jumps back to the start. Just that annoying lockup now,
Rab (bombero) Reid Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Cheers guys mine already has that version so maybe that's why the update just jumps back to the start. Just that annoying lockup now, No joy with GoProFanatics or YouTube, then mate?
AdamR Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 How and when exactly does it happen Barry? If it's easier to get in touch with me directly please feel free to do so. I'll have a look into it for you!
BigRuss Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Does this help? http://discussion.gopro.com/gopro/topics/new_gopro_hero_3_black_freezes_when_micro_sd_is_inserted
Barry Ashcroft Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Cheers I'll try what they say, Used it this morning all fine, just now turned it on and locked instantly
AdamR Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 Strange - please keep us updated and let me know if you want me to look into it for you
Barry Ashcroft Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 That link talks about formatting as exfat not fat 32, what's the difference and what are you using Adam?
AdamR Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 I must admit I've not heard the term exFAT before, but it appears it's a 'new' version of FAT32 and allows larger files to be handled better? Would certainly make sense given the name - FAT stands for File Allocation Table and exFAT is Extended FAT: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT I haven't formatted my card since I installed it, so I would think it's FAT32. Which card do you have Barry? One of the Sandisk Class 10s?
Barry Ashcroft Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Yes the one recommended from my memory
Barry Ashcroft Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 It's a 32gb but strangely when empty only has 29.7gb of free space
AdamR Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 Thought so yes, I remember the discussion from earlier in the thread. That should be up to the job then. Having not as much free space as indicated on the label is normal, one gigabyte is "2 to the power 30", which is 7.3% larger than one billion. So 29.7GB translates to 31.9 billion bytes, which is '32GB' according to marketing people. (copied from the internet!)
MW1 Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Hi Adam, MyMemory recommend two different cards for the Hero 3: "SanDisk 32GB Mobile Ultra Micro SD (SDHC) Card - Class 10 UHS-1 + SD Adapter" & "SanDisk 32GB Ultra Android Micro SD (SDHC) Class 10 UHS-1 30MB/s" http://www.mymemory.co.uk/compatible-memory/Digital_Camcorders/GoPro/GoPro+-+Hero+3_Memory_Cards?&filters=size:32768|brand:11|Class:class 10 Does it matter which one is used? Thanks, Mark
