Just bought the OSMO yesterday to a local dealer here in Switzerland, I was pretty excited to test it.
I fully charged the battery and followed the activation steps successfully. After connecting my S6 Edge +, I started playing with the OSMO, but 5 min later: No more live video previen in my phone' screen!
I can take pictures and record videos but I cannot see anything.
I tried several things:
- Re-install the DJI GO app + reset the DJI camera and gimball, but same problem.
- Use of another smarphone, a galaxy S5, but same problem.
- I downloaded the latest driver, put it in the SD card, update worked fine (green led at the end + correct bip sound + correct log file), but problem still there.

This morning I went back to my local shop, we tried again with the iPhone of the seller, same problem.

They took the Osmo back and we opened an incident ticket.

I'm sure it will take ages before I receive back the Osmo fixed, or a new one.

I'm really upset...

Same problem with me. I finally bought a new SD card, try more 20 times before I success to upgrade the firmware.
Good luck & hope they return it back to you soon.

Your dealer should have exchanged it for you.  Poor customer service!

Thank you,
The problem doesn't seem to be related to the upgrade because it happened before I tried to update the firmware.
I hoped the firmware update could fix this but it did not, even if I was able to do the upgrade without any problem.

I had already ordered a few accessories, I hope I will not regret it.

Unfortunately they didn't have any other Osmo, it's not a dealer specialized in that kind of products, I had to wait 1 week before receiving mine.
I hesitated between buying online directly on DJI website or locally (prices are the same) but don't regret buying locally now that I have a problem, this way the dealer is handling it. I just hope their process will not take too much time.

Ah, that's different.  At least they were willing to rectify the problem.

I feel your pain, but buying it directly wasnt really better. But there is always a risk a device can malfunction. It's a strange behaviour that after 5 minutes it stops working. Did your fan spin up or not? Could be a overheated camera, the fan needs to cool the electronics and if that doesn't happen it overheats.

i bought mine also yesterday and was excited for just first few minutes. had exactly the same issue in the post and tried everything. returning it tomorrow from where i bought it. honestly hoping to get back "cash" as i am disappointed with the osmo. DJI should remain with drones only.

Sorry for the frustration! I hope you'll find the best solution for the trouble. As a company, I think DJI will keep delivering better and creative products to the world but not just marking time. There's no perfect thing, when a new thing comes out, we may always encounter lots of troubles, but only if we keep trying and improving, everything won't be a trouble all the time. Thanks for your support and cooperation! Anyway, if you have any problem, please feel free to post here, we'll try to help you fix it.

Yes I heard the fan running, several times and very loud... Maybe too much than expected and that's related to the problem.

DJI-Adela, I have a question for you.
Do you have different versions of the OSMO, technically speaking? Did you modified some hardware since the OSMO when out last year, based on problems that happend to users. i.e. if a wifi card is faulty you start replacing it since a specific period.

Hi, thanks for your concern! Based on the customer's feedback and to improve the user's using experience, our engineers are working hard to improve the Osmo. News about the update or modification has not been released, so I'll just wait for that together with you, please just pay attention to DJI official website for the new update. Thanks again!
