We have done that for you, may I know you got the beta or not?
Please make sure you have great internet connection, restart the aircraft and Assistant 2 then check again.

No beta firmware since I got home this afternoon did a factory reset updated again but nothing, am I surprised NO!

"IF AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT"! The last firmware we had was just perfect: perfect flight, perfect video shooting, etc. This new FIRMWARE is just a piece of CRAP. I'm not playing around with my 1200 € bird to see it wobble around or fall onto a tree, really. There's no way I'm flying it with that Firmware and neither I see myself downloading a "SUPPOSINGLY GOOD" BETA firmware to make my aircraft a DJI Guinea pig. LET US DOWNGRADE!!!!! Then fix the thing. Do your own BETA testing and leave the poor users alone. 2 weeks from now and I'll consider other more "professional" approaches (products). I said. ( FEEL BETTER NOW )

Bravo! I agree with your every word! DJI should provide the ability to return an old firmware!

Hi All,
I have forwarded all the accounts you posted here to engineers, will push the firmware to your account.
Please make sure you have the great internet connection, and dji account is logged in, then you will see the beta in the list via Assistant 2.

It's been more than 24 hours now and still no beta firmware listed in Assistant 2. The internet connection ain't an issue,  the question is, they really push it?

Interesting observation about my P4 after the firmware update.  There is a similarity in the way the bird "bucks" once in a while, and the way it constantly"bucks" when in Draw mode.  Sounds are similar and the action is similar, as if one or more of the motors are unable to stay synchronized all the time, like they are momentarily losing power.

Hello Natalia , I updated my Phantom 4 firmware v02.00.0106 after that, he began twitching in flight and by reducing the height, I can work on it , I'm losing their customers. Put the previous firmware so you can go back to last firmware version, my P4 was flying very well.

Здравствуйте Наталья, я обновил свой Phantom 4 на прошивку v02.00.0106 после этого он стал дергаться в полете и при снижении с высоты, я не могу на нем работать, я теряю своих клиентов. Выложите предыдущую прошивку, чтобы можно было вернуться назад. На предыдущей версии прошивки мой Phantom 4 летал очень хорошо.

My gimbal is/was bouncing all over the place. I took off my push on style Polar Pro filter and the gimbal dance went away, but the Phantom still flies like crap. I never had any issues with the gimbal and filters until after this firmware. I'm wondering if they adjusted gimbal power/tuning as part of there messed up firmware package. How could DJI release such firmware with out being fully tested?

Since you cannot downgrade the firmware may be you will not be able to upgrade either? {:4_177:}

The best way I've found to show the stability issues is flying forwards while descending. I let you a video footage, I'm flying in P mode with the gimbal in front position, it was scary looking at the P4 and see the way it was flying:

As long as the DJI team is fooling people with fix bugs in the firmware, in the network has a way to downgrade to the previous/any firmware))

Originally while updating via dji go my update hung at 99% and was completely screwed up, no video trans and all sensors were pooping themselves.  reflashed via dji assistant but didn't help because the controller wasn't updating and the controller and drone wouldn't connect properly. finally was able to update the controller via the unusable dji go app after 2 hours. everything seemed to be ok after updating the controller. Traveled to a high budget shoot the next day (5k production budget) drone was more unstable than me trying to fly a helicopter drunk and blindfolded for the first time. The vision sensors would crash then  after turning them off and back on would work then crash again a minute later. So features such as activetrack would not function. Every second of footage I filmed using the p4 today is absolutely disgusting and unusable. I've always been able to rely on DJI in the past but you guys really screwed me this time. I won't be surprised if I never hear from this client again which is really embarrassing when it is out of my control. DJI we've been through this before, your hardware is garbage if your software doesn't work. Fix it.

And I am pretty sure, next time nobody will rush to apply new upgrade from DJI. Lesson learned! And Yes NICE WORK DJI!

After reading this entire thread from start to finish, what strikes me the most is:

DJI not admitting there is a problem here which to me is quite obvious

DJI not making an official statement, either to say there is a problem, or at least they are looking into a problem.

DJI not hurrying to resolve or identify any issues

Whilst DJI Natalia is trying to be helpful - 99% her posts seem very scripted and samey and again no official word

The problem seems to be worldwide, and you can see the same problems and concerns are inherent on other forums such as phantom pilots

Im afraid as usual DJI after support are terrible, to be honest i think the previous firmware should have been left as it was.... I usually update because as with everything technology wise your always told its wise to run the latest software / firmware, but this time i have not upgraded and will not be until there is a 100% known problem and fix...

Again im really shocked at DJI's lack of haste to look into and fix this quite obvious problem...

It is not necessary to blame DJI for user error.

If you've updated your Phantom and now experience issues Please update your Phantom to resolve any issues.
This may or may not involve waiting for the next FW release.

If you have not updated your Phantom, please continue to fly with no issues.

I mention it again guys. Try to do an IMU calibration when the drone is cold. Put it under AC or something.

What is most puzzling to me is why DJI simply doesn't come right out and say we know we have an issue and we apologize for the inconvenience, we are going to make the previous FW available while we sort this out.  It would be so easy and faith would be restored/maintained.  None of this makes sense to me.  The reason the don't have to is this, is there any viable alternative to DJI out there?

For 2 weeks they know that they have an issue with FW, yet when you turn on GO 4, it tells you to update your FW.  What is wrong with this picture!??

Instability, wobble, shaking of Phantom 4 after latest firmware update 106. It was flying normal before the update, just sometimes horizon tilt and sometimes video issues.   
Every trouble- shooting that are being talked about and that can be done that I know of has been done several times, but the Drone stays unstable. I use the Drone for farming purposes and inspections, but it is impossible after the latest update. Really hope that solutions could be found. Still wait for the beta firmware.

We get possibility to make firmware backup. Please cud any who has P4 with firmware older than v02.00.0106 make his P4 drone firmware backup by using this utility https://mega.nz/#!nJcAUICR!3OWhm ... zpovIqo_6In3VnHXu5M and post it somewhere for downloading?
Only you need, connect you drone to win PC with assistant2 close, open DUMLdore.exe file and chose "backup firmware" option. This will help a lot for peoples to get back his P4 drones to normal flight.
Thanks.

Most of us have tried every fix that's been presented. I know I have. I just discovered there is anew DJI Go App for android out today. But not a thing about any fix to the AC firmware. I guess they've been busy with the Go App. That's just what I don't need!
