Everything should be alright for them to replace my lower ball joints with this TSB right? I replaced the upper ball joints with the adjustable ones, and have coilovers.

Is ceb lurking around here these days?

Yo Simon, does that bracelet say "Simon loves Tiffany?"

@apin... Haven't ruled out a M3 sedan but it all comess down to price, milage and condition of the vehicle. One thing I am not compromising on is a 6-spd manual. No SMG or DSG. Kicking it old skool and with my new lady friend in the avi too

I hear you. 19's are fine but what I meant by more aggressive is wider + lower offsets. I'm sure some spacers will set those off nicely!

Horrible battery life. I recorded about 30 minutes of footage in 720p at 60fps with wifi on then let it sit for about an hour or less with wifi off(I think I was charging it too). Took it out with me to dinner and after fiddling with it for like 10 minutes it was dead. Like wtf yo?

Battery heats up like crazy for no apparent reason when idling.

Preview in the app is useless. It worked the first time when I first unboxed it. Then it just stopped. Later on I figured something out and it worked for a period of time. Now it's just a black screen.

PC connectivity. It connects when it feels like it.

Charging. Without buying a third party charger you'll have to use the gopro to charge your batteries which I find to be pretty absurd if you want to charge one and use the camera with another battery.


So far I've been more pissed off at it than enjoying it....
I got the Silver Edition. Apparently the Black Edition has even more problems.

Also the lil LCD is useless in the dark. I had to tilt it at my room light to see it

Yeah, it was an impulsive buy since parents said they would get me something and I made a deal to pay part of it. Should've read reviews first but I figured with how good the the rep of the Hero2 is, the Hero3 should be if not the same, atleast better. But I guess I was wrong

I bought two extra batteries and the suction cup too

Still Gunna buy it, I'm super excited to film underwater. I do a lot of diving, and water related activities, so just having a waterproof camera makes up for the cost.

Stupid thing now works..... I hate how it pisses the shit out of me and then works afterwards -_- I'm most likely gonna keep it though. Not paying Best Buys 15% restocking fee lol



JoeBlow, the Black Edition has been reported to freeze up and shit while recording so do you research before you buy lol

Sounds like a software issue no?
Probably fix it with an update?
Tried to read reviews, hard to find bad ones. Only thing I really see complaints across the board about is the battery life.

The wifi, yeah, that's an issue with software for now. Hopefully they fix it soon :\ They are aware of it and are working on a fix atm.

Battery life is the main issue lol if you do get one and dont want to get the extended batter BacPac thingy I'd recommend getting this and a few more batteries. at $11 a piece that sure beats the GoPro batteries by $9 and 150mah. I might see if I can return the two I got and spend that money on these lol

On the GoPro forums the Black is just know for freezing, but I think there was just a batch of those that did that.

Best buy has a 15% restocking fee? Fuck them, I hit em up. This is why their dying, I've always hated them especially with their bullshit.
