Last Fridy I downloaded version 1.2.8 from the DJI website and updated my copter and the RC (Did not download the release of earlier this week, so expected to need to update the RC FW as well).
Update process went well for both the Phantom and the RC.
Apart from eing prompted that there is a newer firmware in my app (latest Android version) it indicats that the FW is version 1.1.5. When (Probably) following another s/u sequence of the app/tablet and remote, the Firmware notifciation does not appear. However the app indicates I have version 1.2.6...but I honestly downloaded and installed v1.2.8.
Can someone tell me what is behind this?

By the way the FW is not that briljant, previous version was better (however no a bit less Jello)/ more stable no strange messages. Could be the combination of the newer App and at the same time the new FW, but still....
I hope DJI is working hard on the issues and will issue a new FW shortly.

(N.B. did the compass dance (outside in open field), calibrated the IMU (my aircraft was at ambient temperature) and calibrated the Gimbal)

Are you flying a P3 Pro, or a P3 Advanced?

FW 1.2.6 is the current FW for the Professional

FW 1.2.8 is the current FW for the Advanced.

Make sure you are using the correct version for your bird, and make sure to verify the same version is on both your controller and your P3.  

Nothing wrong with re downloading the appropriate current version and re doing your update process.  Worst case you will get a message that the version you are trying to install is the same.

See my long post about the upgrade...

With the new app & firmware it occasionally reports that it needs updating, but it's fine...  Seems if the transmitter is not on and running for a while before you start the app you get that message?

Also flying a P3A, with 1.2.8 and with VPS disabled have no issues.

I downloaded the correct version, but as you say worthwhile retrying to see what happens then.

Will try this evening.
