LG G6 up to date Android version 7.0

Known issue For Samsung Galaxy S5, Xiaomi Mi5 and LG G4 devices running Android 6+, connecting to Litchi with any aircraft model except the P3Standard/P34K/Spark will only work if Litchi is the only DJI-based app installed on the device (DJI Go, or other third party DJI apps must not be installed on the same device).
Copied this from the help page. Although your actual model is not mentioned the LG G4 is. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 that I use exclusively for Litchi VR and I cannot have dji go installed as well as Litchi. Have you tried uninstalling DJI go?

UPDATE on my connection issue.
One thing I didn't try was to turn off the phone and restart.
It works now don't know why but is does.  I never shut my phone off always just plug it in to charge.

Thanks to all for all the great information and help.

Thank You,
Rudy

Awesome.  Just assumed you would of tried that first I guess.  If something is funky on my phone that is always the first thing I do.  Glad to hear you got it working.

Have learned it the hard way. Have been in test group for app and it is sometimes the only way.
Force stopping the app clear cache and restart phone is best.

Apart from waypoints, Litchi is also a leaner - and I suspect a better coded - app. That's why it'll run on apple devices which GO 4 no longer can (due to processing load imposed by video decoding, leading to break-ups and drop-outs on CPUs less than, say, the A8X).

Litchi also has a VR mode for various goggles, which DJI GO 4 doesn't offer.

Which is exactly what I provided in post #40.  You must have missed that.....

Do a Search on this Forum, "Litchi." There's dozens of highly favorable comments on the Application.

Huh?  I have no problems running Go4 or Litchi on any of my Apple products.  You can be an apple hater, but don't mislead.

Amazing attitude - I own nothing but Apple, and I know what I'm talking about. But very pleased you're seeing no issues with your iPad (although you don't appear to mention a model, and I'm wondering now if you responded without checking what CPU your device is running).

Glad you got it working. Sometimes we can't see the wood for the trees.
I like the idea of planning my flight. But I need to go to location so I can work out altitudes. I plan to fly out into the sea a bit then fly low and sweep up over a castle. So I  need my altitude right so I do not ditch or hit castle.

Litchi Replied with.

LG has numerous issues with their software. We recommend resetting your device, then only install Litchi and it should work in theory.

One advice.
If you do not use Airdata com you should use it.
Then you have all your flight data in one place, both Go4 and Litchi.

Try going into settings, applications, DJI GO 4  scroll down to set as default. Mine reads "None set as default"

Next time you connect the controller.   Turn on controller wait for connection then plug into android. You should then be given a choice of DGI GO 4 or Litchi.
