Hi - I have exact;y the same problem, and I know of another person experiencing this.  I have spent the last 24 hours reinstalling and recalibrating without success.  Have sent to DJI so should get a response in about 6 months (with luck)..   My problems started when i upgraded to the latest firmware - and I cant go back......

The 3 rows of numbers, the 4th one in each row
row 1 should be close to 0
row 2 should be close to 1.0
row 3 should be between I think 500 to 1500

Put your mouse on the small question mark and the explanation is there
What are your numbers?

Those numbers are all within the limits of the IMU.  There is something else going on there,  I'm not sure what their error codes are.  I would contact the place you purchased it and talk with them.  R/G/Y is a power on self test.

Interesting find Gerry. Thanks for posting that. I decided to go ahead and do the latest update on my P2V+ v3. I didn't have any problems updating.but I LED light on the display don't work (Android).

I didn't re-cal my IMU and don't plan to unless a have to. I recal'ed it once after a crash soon after I got my Phantom. When I cal'ed my IMU under the old firmware I also got the hot IMU message but I waited about 5 mins and it worked without error.

I wonder if this slowness could also but part of the issues after an IMU cal?

So I installed the Reimage software only to find it is a pay program. It did ID 3 issues with my PC, but did report any slowness. Two issues were related to codec software I installed for MP4 files that would not play properly on my PC and the other was a piece of software and directory for drivers that I actually don't remember installing. I didn't buy the software but I manual removed the issues it ID'ed, I then removed the Reimage program too.

I ran my existing software to fix any issues with the registry, junk file etc.

Not when you are doing an IMU calibration, but if your IMU numbers are within the limits, it shouldn't be necessary.

2015-01-30
@Phantom 2 Vision Central Board Firmware* v1.0.2.10, maybe maincontroller firmware v3.08 will work better then v3.10? guess i can try to redownload  3.8 assistant and  maybe since i use old  driver installer it dont work? im exhausted lol

uninstall the old windows drivers and the PT2 assistant 3.8 and reinstall.  When you install the windows drivers, it will ask you to connect the Phantom to the computer and power it up.  It will install files to your flight controller onboard,  then install the 3.8 program again.

Had exactly the same experience with mine.
Wrote to DJI, will see during the week if there will be any answer.
However, I went through ALL updates:
Installer ver 3.8 (Upgraded the vision to 3.10 with Installer 3.6 - when the problems started)
iPhone App
WiFi-Extender "upgrade" via the new App under settings
Camera firmware to 1.3.0
Strangley the error is gone for now, but I hope to see a firmware-fix very soon - don't really trust the problem to be gone.

You can't bypass the temp waning if you proceed it does not calibrate the IMU.

Wait for it to cool down and be ready to start the calibration when it says ready. It will confirm a successful calibration.

I get that message every time I do an IMU calibration, I always click ok and continue and I get a SUCCESSFUL calibration after it is done.

wasnt Error 25 the "knock knock" method? Colin guin showed that very good when the Phantom1 entered the scene. Im not sure Error 25 was the problem but there is a certain IMU failure message and the solution is knock on it :p because the gyros got stuck after a crash.

Yes you have to wait for the IMU to cool when you want a correct IMU calibration. I dont think its a bug with the temperature message because the Inspire has the same warning and i cant believe they still implement this "bug" in the inspire, that would be more than stupid :p

you can do an advanced imu calibration regardless of the overheat popup...its a bug in the firmware that has not been removed ...yet.
