I was connected to Spark's WIFI but when I turned it off and then try to turn it on again I can no longer connect to it even though its wifi network is visible. I have no problem reconnecting to other wifi networks, only with Spark. To reconnect to it I have to reset it by pressing the battery power button for 9 seconds (3 beeps), in short, I have to do it evertime I fly.

Same here. I already contacted support but got no answer by now.

True, I also contacted them, the customer support just told me to always reset it everytime I will fly

Weird thing is that it works fine with Lenovo A7000+ but not with Xiaomi Mi3

It is the same issue with the OSMO. Pain in the As

Likewise. Online chat with their CS this morning and they suggested me to get a replacement as this is not normal.

Same here. It is the same scenario as the OSMO. I am pretty sure they built it on the same concept.

https://forum.dji.com/thread-100550-1-1.html here you can read whats going on. I think they know about this now and will patch it .

1. You purchased Spark or Spark Combo?

I have a combo, I use the phone, although I do not connect the spark to the remote .
I have to reset each time. I tested by connecting the spark to the phone, it works. I cut the wifi of the phone and I turn on the wifi of the phone (leaving the spark on). It reconnects automatically. But if I turn off the spark and turn it on again the phone does not see the wifi from the park. I have to do a 9s reset. As the wifi reappears.
Is normal for a combo without reconnecting to remote control?  I need To make a reset between two uses with the telephone? (Samsung s7 edge)

Diana, thank you for your reply. I use Xiaomi Mi 3 and here's the complete details from gsmarena http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_3-5678.php, for the mean time, here a quick details of its WLAN Wi-Fi

• 802.11 a/b/g/n
• dual-band
• Wi-Fi Direct
• hotspot
  

It supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and capable of automatically selecting the frequency band.


Please note that I didn't have issue using Xiaomi Mi 3 with DJI Go app for my Phantom 3 Advanced before.

However, I didn't encountered this issue using my wife's mobile phone which is Lenovo A7000 Plus, here's its WLAN specs

• Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
• hotspot
  

see http://www.gsmarena.com/lenovo_a7000_plus-7886.php for full specs of the phone.


Moreover, I saw some posts in this forum that their mobile device model though included in the compatible list also encourtered the same issue.

Hi, i use Samsun galaxy note 4 , Samsun S3, Nvidia Shield, Sony Xperia. All of those have the same problem, only IPAD PRO work fine.

Same problem here with my Samsung Galaxy S5 and with Huawei Honor 7. So with both I can't see the Spark's SSID. With an iPhone 5, IPad Air 2 and my Notebook I can see the SSID. So it seems to be a problem connected to Android.

Not really, some android phone doesn't have issue with Spark's wifi.

Hello DJI Diana!

Sorry for delay. I am using a Google Nexus 6P with Android 7.1.2. It support Wifi 5Ghz, and works correctly on my home internet at 5Ghz.

I'm having the same problem. Having to reset the WiFi settings using the 9 second button press. Disappointed. I've got 2 devices S7 Edge(2.4+5GHz) and an old Hudll (2.4GHz).Getting the same thing on both. For its initial connection everything worked fine but then it said "switching WiFi you your country" and that's when it misbehaves.

After resetting the WiFi it connects on 2.4GHz. Dji needs a solution that remembers that for next time to save that so resetting is not required.

Resetting the WiFi looses SSID and password changes... annoying.

Summary 2 annoying issues that are easy fixes in firmware. It's tarnished my view of the drone and as my first use of DJI products doesn't leave a good impression.

I have already logged a support request via your European contact (612168)
