Used my Osmo for about 30 minutes after receiving it today.  Charged the battery and now it won't power on.  When I put the battery in I can hear the fan in the camera running immediately but sliding the power switch does nothing. Also I can connect to WIFI but the go app never connects.   Gimble does nothing.   Anyone had similiar problem?

Hi plz check folllowing details so that we may help:
1. u used osmo for 30 min, did u successfully active it?
2. when you power on osmo (the fan is running) , the right side light near the power switch shows green or red?
3.when u power on osmo, any beep comes out?
4.u power on osmo. Although the dji go does not show "connected". u should still be able to enter camera view. Can u see any camera osd info? say shutter speed, video or sth? Can u see battery percent?

I just got my Osmo and i followed the quick start instructions but gimbal is limp....it is not functioning. Also within the app it takes me to a screen that show Osmo visually and says i need to update. Then i click next and it doesn't work. So i can't see the cam visuals via app, but it says i'm connected.

Any thoughts?

Hello, I have a new OSMO and I can not get the camera view to activate on the DJI GO APP.  It Shows N/A N/A N/A etc across the camera screen, on solid gray.  Gimbal control and touch control still work, but no communication with camera or SD.  Any chance this is fixable?

Hey guys, I had this issue, but worked it out eventually.  The instructions provided even in the manual are not very clear, had me confused for ages.  

You need to connect to your main wifi first (not the osmo connection).  Then load the DJI GO app, it will then propt you to activate the OSMO, and you have to switch back and fourth between the 2 wifis to get it done.  Once its activated, the gimbal and camera will boot up and do its dance,  And everything should work.  Probably need to format the SD card once its all complete as well.

It seems your Osmo is not activated yet.  Please follow the manual to update the Osmo either via app or SD card.  The activation process should start after the update is completed.

1) Try the reset combination button and upgrade the OSMO
2) You need to activate the OSMO.

Have you activated the OSMO? Please use an IOS device to do the activation so you don't have to switch the network back and forth.

Hi, have you tried resetting the osmo WiFi to default? and SD card formatted correctly with PC and then through the app as well, remove camera from the handle (make sure osmo is turned of before doing this) and check connections, also try changing from 2.4GHz to 5.8GHz, or even try another device

I just purchased the Osmo, and am unable to power it up to activate it. I charged the new battery provided, and followed all of the instructions in the DJI videos for activation, or at least I tried to do so. But when I put the battery in the device, there is no green indicator light, and the device will not power up.

Hi, you probably have checked but there is a clear protective sticker over the battery terminals when new, has this been removed? do you have another battery to try?
Also try holding down the trigger and the record button and then the power button

Hello!
Could you please try to push the battery with your fingers so that the battery pins can be connected to the connector fully while you're trying to power on the Osmo?
Have you ever powered it on before or never?

Hi, do you mean the X5 camera won't work on Osmo anymore? or it won't work on Inspire anymore?

Many thanks, Mike. This worked perfectly on both my ipad and android phone.  I think some of the procedure requires internet and the osmo wifi wouldn't connect to the internet, so I swapped back and fore as you suggested.  Perfect response.  Brilliant.

When I insert the battery to the Osmo, it turns on automatically, then, when I turn off the Osmo with the power button, and try to turn it on, it doesnt work... So I have to pull out the battery and push it back and then again, the Osmo turns on automatically. Sometimes the Osmo doesn't recognise the batteries, a red light turns ON on the left side and then the Osmo turns off. Anyone with a solution or with the same problem? Thanks!!
