Update 22-09-01
I decided to get a bit more disciplined about this, and I documented today's failed attempt to get the sim to work, which I'll describe shortly. First, a quick recap of the end of the last session.
My Galaxy Note S20 got hot during the process. That phone has never gotten hot before. Weird. When I plugged it in to recharge it, it burped, and then showed the little lightning bolt suggesting that the battery was fully discharged. It wasn't...It never got below 35% during the failed attempt, and eventually, it jumped quickly back to that number, and charged properly from that point on. I've never seen anything dimly like that kind of charge behavior from it, not ever. Something very weird was done to my phone. For reference, my phone is always updated to the latest revision of it's OS, so it wasn't that.
Now, on to todays failed attempt. Here's the sequence of events:
1) Close all apps on phone
2) Re-start phone
3) Launch sim app
4) From that point on, I precisely follow the instructions that the sim app provides on my phone screen
5) Power on the goggles
6) Connect the phone to the goggles. Time stamp 0924
7) The sim app launches DJI Fly on the phone. The screen on the phone goes to the DJI Fly opening page, and stays there
8) The goggles ask me to confirm that the props are properly and securely attached to the aircraft. The aircraft is powered dead off...no battery in it.
9) I confirm that the mythical props are fine
10) The goggle screen goes to the generic FPV slide show.
11) Time stamp 0929. Gradually, nothing happens. The phone and the goggles remain in the state just described. No changes.
12) I switch the screen on the phone back to the sim app. It is singing, and says it's connecting
13) Time stamp 0934. Gradually, nothing happens. Nothing has changed
14) At a dead end, I decided to turn the controller on. It starts blinking.
15) Time stamp 0939. The controller starts beeping! But that's all it does. It just keeps beeping. No change on either screen, phone or goggles. I have no clue what the RC wants me to do.
16) Time stamp 0944. At a dead end, I push and hold the power button on the RC, and it starts Rabbit Beeping. The spacing of the beeps changes, and the lights come on in sequence, endlessly
17) Time stamp 0947. Declare failure, turn everything off.
I should note that on some of the previous failed attempts, I got to a "start RC" step displayed on the phone, and when I did, it ran me through the little demo of the sticks and the control wheel. But when the demo was done, it never took me anywhere that would let me actually launch the sim. This happened a couple of times. This time, I never say anything like that on the phone screen.
Assuming this works eventually, I will very seriously need to change to a different voice for the app...
I hope that the DJI folks will read this, see some obvious thing that I'm doing wrong, tell me what it is, and when I stop doing it, everything works. I hope so, because I'm running out of ideas.
Different things to try? Anyone?
Thx,
TCS
