I have a few iphone pics of my unit's innards. At any rate, videos from 13 months ago remained in memory and have now been safely off-loaded. I tried that, but am unsure whether it actually reset. There was a frightening moment when first powered on where factory specs were displayed for minute or so, and an option to reset by holding the red button was offered. At any rate, the video from 13 months ago was intact, and 18% battery charge remained.
I can only conclude it was probably a bad connection or a bad logic state which was corrected by disconnection and reconnection of the internal components. I reassembled the dang thing, and it works fine. When the chips arrived, I opened my MinoHD only to discover it had a substantially different design from the version, and the chip I ordered was not in my design!! I looked at the disassembly instructions here at and determined that the first chip near the usb jack (TPD12S521DBTR) was a likely bad component and ordered a couple from for $1.79 each.
only to discover that repair would cost as much as a new unit!! Only worthwhile, perhaps, if you have very valuable video trapped in the device's memory. I would add that when I attached the FLIP MinoHD to my computer via its USB jack, the led on the jack blinked continuously, yet the device was not even acknowledged by windows, nor would it power on after sufficient time for a complete charge.Īlso, I tried the reset button hidden in the tripod socket, and called tech.
