My Osmo was delivered yesterday.  I charged it up right way and then could not get it to work.  I downloaded the app and it did a firmware upgrade.  Then I balanced the phone, IPhone X, and nothing happens.  When I power it up I get the 3 white lights and the green flashes for a few seconds then turns red.  I can use the camera button to take pictures or start a video, but the joystick does not work.  There is no movement from the motors at all.

Is there a way to do a rest?  Any advice before I take it back to Apple?

Ok, I reviewed the online manual and found the solid red light is a sign of a failed firmware upgrade.  Now I want to know how to fix this.

Any ideas?

Hi there, we are sorry for the trouble caused, solid red means firmware upgrade failed.
Please reboot the Osmo Mobile 2 device and DJI Go APP, then connect to Bluetooth and update the firmware again via DJI Go APP.
Please let us know if it works, thank you.

I have powered the OSMO on and off and deleted and reinstalled the app.  After a reset the bluetooth connection and open the app it does not offer a chance to re-install the firmware.  The app can see the OSMO Mobile 2 and that they are connected.  When I click on settings on the app it does show the correct firmware number.   How can I force a redo of the firmware upgrade.  I have tried using different phones and cannot get the firmware upgrade to start.

Thanks for you help
