It beggars the question, were you born stupid or did it just come naturally! If your drone is that much of a liability why on gods earth did you not return it to DJI as defective.

Amazing response. To imply I'm the stupid one and follow that up with a truly clueless question. Bravo!

I have the Nexus 6 and not the Nexus 6P wasn't sure if you picked up on that? I do have experimental Android 9.0 beta 3 and it works fine with DJI Go4 4.2.21 603-playstore and my Pixel XL. And again no problems with the same app version with my Nexus 6

Just to add Android released Android P 5 beta 4 and i had to uninstall like i said in my other post because it FC'd like it has all a long with the beta releases of Android P. I haven't flown with it yet.....So just a heads up for you and others.

Any word on an updated app with a fix to this problem DJI?

Any word when you might be sending out an email to warn people that they might experience this problem DJI?

The reviews are in on the last 2 versions of the app and it's not pretty: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dji.go.v4

I literally bought my first quality drone (mavic Platinum) just two weeks ago and you could imagine my disappointment when the jdi app had video feed issues on every divice I can get my hands on.  I even bought a galaxy tab S2 thats a blank state..... no video workie.   I managed to bite the bullet and purchase Litchi.  Shame

Awe man that suuuucks

Be sure to leave DJI some feedback about it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dji.go.v4

All this talk of the Mavic 2 lately and I'd think they'd wait until they got all the bugs worked out on the original Mavic Pro first .... especially if they're going to share the same "DJI Go 4" app

As I stated in my other thread...  since purchasing the litchi app, I have had a blast with the drone. However, the go4 app experience has left an ever lasting rotten taste in my mouth. I went through multiple phones and tablets never achieving an acceptable video display. It's not the droid platform....  it's DJI.  Any of you guys/gals know the sinking gut feeling when having to explain to your spouse that you just bought a $1400 paperweight package..... with accessories?

All I can say is that if the newer MP2 is on the same Go4 app, they can forget about any interest I may have in the product. There are others I can invest in. I've had a P3, MP and Spark. Bought a MA as well, but sold it to a fam member couple days after I bought it. It was too noisy for me, and the cool bluish camera tint turned me away. Anyhow, I spent a lot of money on DJI.

To have these ongoing issues ruining the performance, I might be done. What I have will get me by for a while.

Litchi is good, but I should not have to have a 3d party app to run a major league players drone.

Hear that!

Given my concerns with problems of Mavic Air .0400 FW, potentially leading to problems with next FW update for Mavic Pro have come to fruition, and
being problems with MA FW have not been resolved after 85 days since .400 release, and
DJI has yet to officially acknowledge MA problems; let alone new MP's problems, and
throw in the for Professionals' CrystalSky Ultra that can't perform in the environment it was designed for without problems, and
still no resolution for Assistant-2 not working under OS-X, and
support that knows nothing more than what is in the most basic of trouble shooting step-by-step books, there is
no way would I consider dropping over a Grand on MP2.

I was trying to help a person who has big investment in a drone.  A drone with Live view video problem that is quickly becoming an expensive paper weight to owner.

Really?  So in real world life nobody ever uses or needs work arounds for any commercial products while awaiting a fix?!

The fact is, there is a problem affecting SOME (but certainly not all) users and a workaround that takes about 30 seconds to implement.  Is that REALLY too much effort for people until its fixed?

With topic of thread involving updates...

I don't know what workaround you are talking about that takes 30-seconds, but having updated, refreshed, and rolled back DJI Firmware, Software App, and OS; on numerous occassions - it sure was whole lot longer than 30-seconds, closer to 30-minutes for some of aforementioned.  

Worst of all is updating, refreshing, and / or rolling back to frequently is NOT the workaround.

Amazing response. To imply I'm the stupid one and follow that up with a truly clueless question. Bravo!

What I find ridiculous is you undertaking a 'commercial Project' with absolutely no backup or contingency plan such as a second/third drone or an alternative means to satisfactorily operate said equipment, be that a third party software package as well as additional backup android or IOS to complete said commercial project satisfactorily.

But you got it right......clueless is right, but the wrong person. Go Figure huh

The mentality of "oh well... its only a few people and I'm not one of them" runs deep in this forum I see....
Lets make this perfectly clear...

#1.  It does not matter what android version your device is running.
#2. It does not matter what device brand or model android you have.
#3. If your running the latest version CURRENTLY STILL available of Go4....  You don't have video.  

All this wonk wonk about people using this and that device and version of Android is moot.  If your on Apple, or haven't "upgraded" the Go4 app on an Android since 7/4/18.....  consider your self lucky.  In my opinion.... one person effected is too many.  Perhaps thats just how I roll.  Again, this is NOT and Android issue.  This is a massive failure on the part of DJI to have released a FUBARED operating system that renders countless of their products utterly useless.  You guys picking up what I'm slapping down yet?  

Now...  all this bork bork about apple this and apple that.  You will find me right here on this board returning the favor when dji screws YOU over.  I'll tell you its your apple thingy and how its not stable bla bla hork spit. Followed by...  '''meh, stop your complaining... this doesn't effect me".  

Your apple mini tab 2 specs.
Dual-core 1.3 GHz Cyclone (ARM v8-based)
1 GB RAM


My Galaxy tab S2 specs
Octa-core (4x1.8 GHz Cortex-A72 & 4x1.4 GHz Cortex-A53)
3 GB RAM


Thats right...  over four times the processing power and three times the ram.  


Reminder....  Not all of use dji owners live on the dji forum or even know it exists.  If you do not know why your drone is a paperweight, or where to go to get information about how to fix something in which you do not know what said problem is, no announcement is made, no redaction of the fubared app takes place along with a replacement of the last version that did work, no instructions on how to MANUALLY install an APK file received from deep in the bowels of internt drone land.....  you find yourself in my position.  Now, ImI pretty darn certain DJI has ALL of their customers email addresses.  I happen to own a prominent firearms related forum and can tell you right now... it takes 4 clicks and all but 3min to execute a mass email notification to thousands of users.

His main concern is to try to destroy this forum, he’s a nasty piece of work, but as it’s fairly apparent you will be 100% aware of all his trolling.
He definitely met his match with you and the OP.
He’s the only person on this forum who owns one craft which has all the symptoms of of every other craft, so you myself and Irene are welcome to this thread, it’s definitely a thread for the monster raving lunatic party.

You are an idiot. Maybe even the dumbest person I've ever encountered. I'm not going to debate you because you just make stuff up out of thin air and there's no point of discussing anything with you until you learn how to read and comprehend it.

Since this is like the 10th time you've announced you're not going to comment on this thread any longer, don't you think it's about time you just go away?  (You don't actually have to reply ... you can just go away)

DJI automatically updated users DJI Go4 app to what has turned out to be a faulty version for many using Android devices. Many Android users now receive an intermittent but persistent blurry/pixelated video transmission from their DJI drone via the DJI Go4 app (https://www.google.com/search?q=dji+android+pixelated). Flying the drones in this manner makes the unit dangerous because the pixilation doesn't always happen until after the drone is launched and the pilot is left flying blindly.  

This issue has not been addressed in any prominent way by DJI. Many users do not find out about this bug until their drone is airborne as it is not unreasonable for a pilot to think their drone is working as it had been since the last time they launched it.

Let DJI know this is not acceptable by adding your review and comments here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dji.go.v4

Discourage you from what?

Please ether use the work arounds until the updates will satisfy you or sell your drone and leave.  Attacking those who are trying to help you get past this situation.

Yu do realize that all you are actually doing here is making yourself look bad and not really accomplishing the fix you are looking for.

So please, either wait for the fix to come or sell your drone and move onto another drone company. Yelling here at DJI admins and other forum members IS NOT GETTING YU WHERE YOU WANT TO BE.

Ok I will give my two cents here.  I have read the entire thread and here is my suggestion.  First off you are going about this the wrong way.  I know your intent is to get visibility here but to be honest they will not do anything with the way this thread is.  What I would do if I were in your shoes is open up a case with DJI.  Clearly document the video issues you have.  Then what you do is start a thread that is a poll.  And get all that have issues vote and respond in it.  And also have others open a support case as well.  

For me this got results when it was discovered that a couple updates ago for IOS users as soon as we would go into POI mode our C1/C2/Function buttons would no longer work.  What I did was open a case with DJI clearly documenting this.  I also created a thread with a poll and it got tons of votes.  An update later the issue was fixed.  

In the meantime you could simply roll back to 4.2.16 as that should get you going and be able to fly.  If you want to call me a troll then by all means it does not bother me I am just giving my suggestion here as a better way than has been.  Good luck and I do hope they fix the issue.  This is going to be my only response in this thread.
