Chosen Solution
I had some water damage to my GoPro so I stripped and cleaned it, when I stripped it I noticed 1 of the components on the back of the motherboard near the battery solder joints with the letter “H” on it had come off, I rebuilt the GoPro and much to my suprise it works, records and takes pictures!! I wanted to know what the “H” component does and how will it affect my GoPro
Perhaps if you could post a photo we could have a guess. Is it the grey component at the top of the board in this picture?
