In case, the OP3 is not reacting anymore to clicks, swipes or using the flip-down to power down,
how can I reset the unit?
there is no reset-hole or similar.

Thx!

I don’t think anyone has experienced a ‘locked’ or ‘frozen’ Pocket 3.

wrong!
We just had a case and that's why I ask

(it's in German, the main problem was a message, that the SD-card should be too slow, which is wrong in this case)

Have you tried removing the SD Card and then doing a hard reset by holding down on the on/off button?

That happened just yesterday.
No matter what I did, it didn't respond, but when I held down the joystick and record button at the same time, it did.

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. If you experience this behavior, try to press and hold the record button for 10 seconds or more to force shut down, then restart and try again. If you experience this behavior a lot, please let us know. Thank you for your valued support.

So have there been other cases or is this the first?

You said that I was wrong and pointed to a case on YouTube. I’m wondering just how wrong I was. Since you brought it up, I thought you might know of other cases than just one singular one. If it's just one camera you've seen, it's not too serious then is it?

I’m still thinking about getting one but if this kind of thing appears frequently, I’ll definitely hold off.

There’s no reason to be abrupt with people for asking a question, you know.

I don't want to be abrupt as you stated, but from what you said here, it was not clear,
that you do not even own an OP3!
So your statement is even more senseless.

I am totally happy with the OP3 and I was just asking, what can be done to reset the device,
just in case, it is frozen.

So DJI Paladin informed to press the power button for 10 seconds, so MY question is anwered.

Ok. Thanks for bringing up a single case!

What has me not owning a P3 got to do with anything? If there are a few flying around that lock, I won’t be getting one. That’s all.

There is nothing senseless about asking a question to see if it is bigger than one unit!

So glad YOUR question was answered, 'in case yours locks!' That’s the most important thing.

Sorry I spoke!

Has anyone else with a Pocket 3 experienced lock ups at all? DJI cameras that I have used have all NEVER locked ever! Action, Action 2,3,4, or my Pocket and Pocket  2 so this surprised me......

So you were just trying to find out what you could do if your pocket happened to freeze . If this is the case then I think paladin has given the answer.

Press and hold record button for 10 seconds to force shut down , then just restart.

I haven’t experienced this , but it can be frustrating if there is no redundancy for this hopefully pallidin’s works.
