I cannot tell you how glad I am I came across this video mate, I was pulling my hair out. I bought the 3plus black edition with the password forgotten and was not having any success. Anyone finding this video now having the same issue as many before, I would advise to watch it through a few times before attempting and it all falls into place. Many thanks my friend.
Worked for me, zero issues. I just followed the instructions from the website. After the update the quik app picked up the GoPro and I was able to choose my own name and password for my GoPro. Thanks for a great fix it video
Great vid. Can I ask what the remote app you're using on your phone to connect to your GoPro ??? Actually bought a little remote from Amazon, works great but there's no video on the remote. Would be nice to connect from my phone and get the vid option. Any info would be much appreciated. I've got a GoPro 3 silver edition.
Just reset my gopro silver 3 password. Got the camera used. Took a while but I ended up changing the wifi to -1 to get it to work. Many thanks to you and this video.
I brought two of these second hand some years ago and been trying to do this without any luck. I came across this video after searching for best gopro settings and thought I give this one a try and it works. Thanks for the video.
Awesome help video! Got my old Hero3 out of retirement and couldn’t remember my WIFI password…this was just the ticket….thank you much for taking the time to put this vid help out there! 😊
Thanks so much, I had only one issue - with plus values goes fine, with minus values isn't going with the update. Anyway password and Ssid changed, without Your content I wasn't able to do it. 😊
thank you so much for this video i just get this go pro and spend 3 hours to reset the password and finaly i am success with your video. many thanks Rocket Garage 🙏
THANK YOU!!!!!!! the only one that worked! GOPRO HERO+ Silver , I bought off ebay and someone had the 3.02 ver installed, but wifi password was unknown. all attempts on other videos and with official gopro was unsucessful. your tips worked. thank you
how long will the camera say update complete, cause I can't do anything else to it will not power on ?? 5 minutes later, I pulled the battery and put it back in and turned it on and it works now. I am connected Thank You!
Its been a little while, but if I remember correctly. When I was figuring all this out. I had my Go-Pro freeze up a few times. I had to do the same-thing (remove the battery). If I remember correctly, it shouldn't take more then around 2 minutes.
Is there a way you could please share the firmware update files via a new link - I'm unable to access the link to the ojm site. I think the site has been taken down the domain. Really appreciate the tutorial and resources shared otherwise! Looking forward to setting up my GoPros (Hero 3 White)
Not sure if this my issue yet? I just bought a couple of gopro hero 3+ silver and black. curently working on the silver. I get to the gopro asking for password and i dont know it...argh try and
Hey. Just had to re-visit this issue. I had downloaded the recent files and tried to add the settings file (which was missing). That didn't work. I downloaded the older file you referenced that didn't work either. I ended up using the old files and changed the OPTIONS line to match the most recent one. That worked and my SSID and password were updated.
Rocket Garage Your video was awesome! However, please don't help me just yet. I'm currently having trouble connecting my GoPro Hero 3 Silver to my iPhone 13. When I try to connect them, it prompts me to check my Wi-Fi connection, but everything seems to be working fine. I'm not sure if it's a software issue or something else entirely. If you or anyone else has any advice that could help me, please let me know. Thank you very much!
Thank you for the video, it worked well except for one thing. The software for the Hero 3 plus silver, although marked version 3.10, it actually loaded version 2.0 . I had to look elsewhere for the correct software. However, your procedure worked.
@leftfoot1970 I'm currently facing the same issue of loading v2.0 on my hero 3+ silver. Did you manage to successfully load the correct v3.10 software?
I followed the step-by-step instructions in the video, but when I try to locate the camera's wifi (Gopro hero 3+ silver) the light turns on but the network doesn't appear on my Android. Have you ever heard of a case like this?
Following GoPro wifi reset suggestion didn't work. Using official GoPro website files, didn't work. This guide and files worked the first time, after 4 hours of me fighting with this thing I only take out every couple years rofl. Subscribed and thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Thank-you for commenting!!! I am mostly an Automotive DIY channel. But I try to share anything in my day to day life that could help someone solve a problem.
use the update folder only, and to my surprise the password was change to the default, and let me change the name and password in the Quik app ...so easy thanks
I can't get my 3+ to update it boots normaly, and i did everything like you even to the same ssid... I turned off the gopro plugged the micro SD (16gb), removed the gopro files inside, drag and dropped both the Update folder and _Macosx, changed settings like in the video + setting -1 for both options in update.10, plugged the sd back, turned on the gopro. Boots as normal, no update screen..
I have done this and now it will not update WiFi. It gives me the failed to update WiFi settings and I’ve tried over and over again formatted cards tried different cards and now failure on work settings. Any suggestions?
so my gopro 3+silver suddenly stopped connecting with my Samsung S6 lite. I removed the camera and tried to add it again to the Quik Software on my S6, but was unable to add it. It sees the camera and connects to the wifi, but I get a message (after the wifi is connected) that it cannot find my camera and to try again. I read I may need an update to my wifi on the camera, found your video and did the install with success, but I am still having the same issue with the tablet. It will also not work on my Galaxy S23+. It will however work on an older verizon Elipse tablet that has the older gopro software called Capture instead of Quik. Any Ideas?
So I have managed to extract the files, but when I come to "edit" the settings, and save it, my Laptop will NOT save it, it won't let me choose any folder you save on, please help me, I am so close to

Hi! I have an issue with my Quik App. Namely, I went through the update successfully. I managed to connect the app with my phone. But when I'm on the app "ready to capture" and "camera off" pop up. Nothing is displayed, even though the camera is on. None of the buttons work. I've tried to find some hints on the web. But all in vain. Could anyone help me out ? Thanks in advance.
