Hi Everyone,

I've purchased my new DJI OSMO Mobile 2 today which is sadly not working. I followed the on screen instructions, activated it, charged it, and it does nothing. I can connect to it via the DJI Go app and thats all. The buttons on the device are not working. The red light is solid, which i read about is a firmware update issue. When i connected the Osmo Mobile 2 the first time the DJI GO app didn't offer any firmware update. The current version is 1.5.0.70    APP: 02 3.1.30(2879)  The strange thing that in the main menu of the APP it says DJI OSMO Mobile connected instead of DJI OSMO Mobile 2 connected, but I'm sure its the 2.

Is there any way to start a manual firmware update or any ideas how can i get rid of this problem?
Thanks

I tried it with Iphone SE, Iphone 8 and an Honor mobile with android. Nothing happens. I'm going to send back the device I think.

Hi, please have the right process of operating it.

Hi, please have the right process of operating it.

Yes, as I mentioned I tried 3 different mobiles. I've charged it fully, went through the process as described in the tutorial videos. Then I switched on the Osmo Mobile 2 and the red led stays solid. The phone can connect to it, but it doesn't work, the servo motors do nothing, the buttons do nothing (except the power on/off button which can only switch on and off the device)

Is there any way to manually update it? What should i do? It's really annoying that i bought this brand new product, and I have to spend hours and read this forum to figure out what is the problem with it.

I have ios screenshots too. Intersting, that the battery info stays blank.

Please enter DJI GO and choose Osmo mobile 2 to connect the bluetooth. Then update it again. Please keep us updated, thanks.

Hi there, welcome to the Forum, it seems you press once, then press again and keep pressing to turn on the Osmo Mobile 2, that is not right, please press and hold the power button for 1.5 seconds to power on.
Solid red means the firmware upgrade failed, did you ever update the firmware? Please mount the mobile phone and balance the gimbal firstly, then enter DJI Go APP to see if there is firmware upgrade notification.
Here is the tutorial video of how to use the Osmo Mobile properly:

Firstly, please attach the mobile phone to Osmo Mobile 2 and balance it properly.
Then, make sure the Bluetooth is connected even you power it on with the previous method.
Please go to the DJI Go APP homepage to see if there is the firmware update notification, if yes, please update to the latest version, thank you.
Here is the tutorial video for your reference:

Hi there, sorry to know you have the same issue, solid red means the firmware upgrade failed, did you update the firmware? When you connect to the Bluetooth of Osmo Mobile 2, is there the firmware update notification?
Was the gimbal balanced before you switched on? What mobile device are you using? Any chance to try another one?

Does not the app tell you that software updates would be available? Can I download updates somewhere else?

The firmware of Osmo Mobile 2 can only be updated via DJI Go APP, if the firmware needs to be updated, the APP will pop-up the message when connecting to the network, we recommend to re-install the APP to see if there is the firmware upgrade notification.
Besides, please make sure the gimbal has been balanced properly before powering on, please refer to the tutorial video I posted in 12#, thank you.

Hi paisapro, sorry for the troubles with Osmo Mobile 2, please make sure there is no other Bluetooth device around and delete all the Bluetooth in your Bluetooth Settings including Osmo Mobile 2. Then try again to see if you can search Osmo Mobile 2's Bluetooth and connect again.

hola buenos días, mi DJI Osmo Mobile 2 lo mande al distribuidor en estados unidos para que me lo cambien porque no hay manera de hacerlo funcionar.
desde ya muchísimas gracias por tratar de hacerlo funcionar. Muchas Gracias

Hi guys
I need help please
My osmo Mobile 2 has a solid red light, it said that I'm connected but the gimbal is not working, the record bottom work also I can take pictures
I believe I need to update firmware but I do not have options to do so, when I click on update I have a message said "Bluetooth interfering"

Hello there!  I got the same problem. Light is red I can use the button, but the balancing doesn't work at all. I don't get any pop up for a firmware update. I've so far tried it with 5 different phones. Huawei Mate 10, Honor View 20, Sony xperia 5 compact, iPhone6 and iPhone7. I followed all the steps and balanced it. I can't unfortunately not get a refund, because I got this as a gift and they didn't have the receipt anymore. This is really annoying. I wish there was a way to manually update the firmware on this.

Hello All,
I'm Vincent, from Indonesia.
I have a DJI osmo mobile 2 and I was using it for the past 2 years.
Yesterday, it doesn't work anymore. Once I pressed power botton for 1.5s the light indicator blinking is green and after 1s become red (not blinking anymore) and the gimbal doesn't work at all. I read so many article, watch so many youtube videos, but I did not find a solution. I decided to wrote here to ask help and I would be very appreciated if anyone could assist me.
Fyi, the firmware notification in my app is nothing at all. Is that mean am I using the updated firmware or what.
Please help. Thank you in advance.
Best regards.

I tried to connect the DJI osmo mobile 2 to another cellphone and just the same. No update firmware notification, and not working either.
Kindly assist. Thank you in advance.

this gimbal had a update firmware that broke many Osmo 2 but you cannot fix it because the device can't start his system, can't notify version of firmware to DJI Go app cans suggest a update, can't notify status of battery , simply is broken. that happen many times with DJI in all their devices. Guys don't try fix it anymore, for you next DJI device

DON`T UPDATE WITHOUT VERIFY WHAT SAY OTHER USERS ABOUT THIS UPDATE, ALWAYS WITH ANY DJI DEVICE
