Try formatting the SD card using the DJI Go App then putting a fresh firmware BIN file on it..

I h ...

I got it to work. I think the problem was that even though I deleted the old corrupt file off the card, I didn't empty the trash bin so that it would fully take it off of there before I put the new file on there.

Also, do I just put in a new battery to update each battery with that same zip file or do I have to re-download another zip file? & is it updating the camera every single time for each battery?

Yeah, after the initial update. delete the logs off the card only leaving the BIN file and stick it back in with a different battery.. Look at the rear light of the battery and you can tell when its updating..

I can not update the firmware on Phantom 3 Pro (v1.3.20). At first time updating process was about 2 ...

Same problem, and the video is not broadcasted to the smartphone.

Can't update to 1.1.9 or 1.3.2 (from 1.1.8) and I've now lost video feed (NO SIGNAL) after trying the DJI GO app.

Worked flawlessly on 1.1.8/DJI Pilot a week ago.

There should be a known/stable version of both f/w and app for people to use - not this constant stream of updates/fixes and newly introduced bugs. I'm so annoyed right now!!

I finally gave up with the Go! App (or not go as the case maybe) and fw 1.3.2, flying was perfect but the app crashing randomly was just doing my head in. Wouldn't matter if I was 2km away or 500m away it would just shut down and come back with no signal until I unplugged usb and re reinserted. Useless.

On Sunday I downgraded the firmware to 1.1.9 and installed the pilot app v1.10 both of which were the ones I had when I first took the phantom out of the box . It still flies the same but now I don't have any stupid app crashing/loss signal/disconnect issues. I would say the combination of these two have been the best and certainly the most stable.

I'd love to do that drone_hunter - but unfortunately you can't roll back the App on iOS...

The odd thing is I still have Pilot on my iPhone - and while this worked when i swapped the devices over, after powering off/on Pilot is now also showing 'NO SIGNAL'.

So either my lightbridge is goosed or the GO app said something to the Phantom!? Call me cynical/paranoid!?

hey sploodge,
Question:
my p3 with busted gimbal. The one i ve painted black, it flies great without any issues. it has 126fw on both rc and p3, the batteries have 132, as i use them on my other p3.
i decided to see if i can update the fw with the busted gimbal, the cables from the gimbal to the vps board and the MC are fine. when i turn on p3 with the 132 fw, the gimbal goes thru the normal dance and then it goes limp with the lens pointing downwards, the fw does not start, no beeps, just flashing green and then red, back and forth. no txt on sd card to say it failed. i checked and stil 126 on it!
i am not too worried about updating it, but the real question is having dji go latest version and 126 on rc and p3, is that a potential issue? can i take my camera off from my other p3, update this one to 132 and then put it back on the one it came from?

i am going to get a standard camera for it as its for my 11 year old, and i know you can put advanced cam on a pro p3.

what r ur thoughts?

Any one know now to Change DJI Remote from 8ch to 32 ch...with IOS APP 2.2.0?

Drone Hunter,

How did you get back to 1.1.9? I can't get past 1.3.2.

Jerry

Thanks for the Post sploodge.

I just purchased a second battery, I entered the sd with the latest firmware, the P3A lit but did not see any flashing on the battery so I think that has already been updated by dji is possible?

Nobody knows what the battery firmware does. Maybe it fixes a problem and maybe it just makes the battery status report better..

I would think its best to update it..

I connected the sd to pc but do not read anything in the LOG folder appears empty, I read the card through the p3?

Sploodge, do you happen to know why when I unlock the red/blue arrow top right of screen on ipad mini that it points in opposite direction( The red aircraft in map), but when I lock it it points correctly in the direction that the aircraft is pointing?. It used to point in nose direction in the map always, but since I switched to ios it does so only when locked. Very had to fly FPV when aircraft is pointing in wrong direction on map, when I unlock it' fine though! Any Help here? Thanks!
