check if anything needs calibration(IMU?). After calibrating, this should not happen again. Possibly the Mavic could have a error with a motor or the controller of the motor... if problem persists then it could cause a crash.
Just be careful from now on.

Also a question for you, feel the motor/ propellor with your hand, do all motors feel and sound normal(no obstruction or abnormal sound like sand inside making a scraping sound)?

Please restart the aircraft and try the method Anoniem mentioned as well, then check whether it persists.
If still the same case, please help confirm the firmware version, and upload a screenshot here, thanks.

May I know the performance of the aircraft?
Sometime the error is just a misinformation, while sometimes it maybe a hardware issue.
If it does not pop up again, please do not worry about it.

What is the current firmware version for your aircraft?
When trying to upgrade or downgrade it, what is the error message popping out on the screen?
Please describe it in detail what problems you're faced with after upgrading the APP, thanks.

I have found the problem and it was since I had the mavic, when I unboxed it I open one of the arms and notice that there was some tension, I notice that there were an extra millimeter of cable sticking out, but DJI has such a bad logistic situation with this product I decided to hold on to it but after a month of usage the cable that was being kinked and the arm biting on it it has failed lucky I had no failures with this in the air because if I did it would of fallen from the sky like the Karma.  This happen yesterday and I notify ken and support, I post this video on youtube because it is a serious matter of the manufactures that they are not supervising this point of interest of the folding arms... It has the latest firmware on the remote and aircraft running the latest app also the new 4.0 But I am guessing all the glitches and what was happen with the craft was cause of the cable being kinked and over time giving warning and glitchy errors to the mainboard of the craft.

yes and I will call netherlands today so they could have it fix as soon as possible because this problem came from inside the box I just took the risk on holding onto the craft because I did not want to wait another 1 month and half for my mavic which I only had it for a month now. But in the video clearly shows that its a manufacturing problem that was not supervise in inspection of the product before it left the factory... It worked for only a month but that bending of the cable of the closing and extending of the arm does not look physically broken but the cable bending so many times have probably broken some filaments of copper and now made the craft useless...
