I've got an old Samsung S4 that I was hoping to use the DJI GO app on for controlling the Mavic Pro, but the video feed to the phone is very bad. How can I adjust the settings on the app to make the video feed better? Or maybe there's a tweak for the phone...?
I've tried some tweaks to the phone, mainly turning off animations and shutting off bloatware apps, but that's had no effect.


The video feed on my S5 is fine - but that's my cell phone, and would rather not deal with calls/texts while piloting the Mavic Pro!


Any ideas?

Um, the title should read "video NOT good".

Hi, thanks for reaching DJI Forum. We do apologize for any troubles. The Samsung  S4 is not fully compatible to run the app. The video feed on the S5 is fine because its a fully supported phone. Please see the list of mobile devices below for future reference. Thank you.

That phone is to old for the latest or much newer Go4 apps you need to downgrade the app to older version use the link below

First Sync your flight data to the Dji cloud so you can get it back if you want.
Then uninstall the app and restart your device.
Before uninstall clear cache and data in settings / apps.
Then install the new app.

First open the Dji go4 app and press the sign inside the red marks.

Then go to the settings where the red arrow is on picture 2 and set it to all.
Then press the cloud sign inside the red marks.

You don't have to connect the drone or the controller.
