I've been trying to use the Go 4 offline maps feature to load maps of the UK - however it doesn't seem to work.  After starting Go 4 I go into the Offline Map menu item - but all I get is a message that says "Acquiring offline City List" - after about 30secs this dissapears and I get a "Network Unavailable" message.  No list of places is displayed - and the search feature is unresponsive.  I know the app is connected to the internet as it sucessfully uploads my flight record when I go into that.

Any clues?  It's a bit difficult to check the home point is correct without it.

I have some maps - but I think that is from when flying at home and the app can connect to the mavic and internet at the same time. Maps for about 20miles surrounding my home are loaded.

There is pleanty of storage left (about 22GB).

Yeah - Android 4.1.10 - I'll add myself to the already huge list of people complaining.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I'd forwarded this case to our engineers to look into, will get an update if I hear something. Thank you for your patience.

Its not just offline maps on mine looking into it - its Here Maps generally, i cant download offline maps like pretty much everyone.  When i do fly the default map displayed appears to be google maps satellite so clearly its failed to access here maps and is defaulting to the OS standard maps.

Hi all, we are aware of this issue, this is a HERE Map server issue,  our engineers are working on it now with HERE Map, will get it resolved soon. Sorry for the trouble you have been caused.

Hello ...

the trick is to download the required offline maps under version 4.1.3 ... then do an update of dji go 4 app to version 4.1.10 ... search under DJI/dji.go.v4/.djiHereMap for a folder named diskcache-v4 ... rename it to diskcache-v5 ... thats it. Works for me under android 7 with various devices. The folder .djiHereMap is hidden!!!

In german:

Der Trick ist ganz einfach. Ladet euch unter der djigo 4.1.3 eure benötigten Karten runter. Updatet die djigo app auf die aktuelle Version 4.1.10. Sucht auf eurem Gerät nach DJI/dji.go.v4/.djiHereMap/diskcache-v4 ... diesen benennt ihr einfach in diskcache-v5 um. Fertig

Best regards

Peter

Yep android bug, we waited a month for Go 4.1.10 to get released behind apple (during which time they'd released 3 more versions for apple) and when it eventually came they'd broken maps and weeks on still haven't bothered fixing or releasing a further update (yes ios had yet another update last week to .15).

FWIW mine defaults to google maps without Here maps so you still have something (i rarely use maps anyway, i find the radar mode far more useful).

Offline Maps stopped working when I updated to 4.1.10 2-3 weeks ago. Well, for the past 2 days I'm able to download maps and all maps are working again. Glad the problem was fixed on the server side and no app update was needed. Phone/OS used - Moto G5 Plus/Android 7.0 with August security patch.

The malfunction may caused by the server of Here Map. And they update it recently. Glad it works again.

Well it's still not working for me - the app is definitely connecting to DJI as the flight distance is syncing with this site.  Can the DJI folk offer an update - is the fix partial?  Should I be doing something to make it work again?

For me it is working after I delete all folders from Here maps, also the Here maps folders under DJI app and these two folders (diskcache-v4 and diskcache-v5).
Like (Peter Stein) says, some of the folders are hidden.
Restart the app and now you can download the off line maps.

Installing the Here maps app seemed to fix it for me.
