Many, including myself, have had video transmission issues resulting in the green and black or blocky video transmission.
Example from another's post:
Historically, i suggested to set a custom channel and set to it's minimum of 4MBps; Turn off over-exposure notification (Black & White stripes); and turn off "Geo system". This worked in the past for myself.
However, with version Go4 v4.1.18 on android, none of this worked for me any longer. I was forced to downgrade to the prior v4.1.15.
I don't feel like i should have to go purchase another app just to fly. People love Litchi, but it is $25 ($15 for Black-Friday) and no way to demo it.
I found a FREE alternative solution (circumvention) which some of you may appreciate:
The "UgCS for DJI" App for Android is designed for survey missions with a ground station. However, I found that I was able to pilot my craft without the "required" ground-station. It is a basic, no-frills interface (which i prefer) and you can still video and photograph.
I suggest configuring all your settings via DJI Go (and logging-in to remove distance/altitude limits), then trying the UgCS App to "just fly".
Here are links to the product:

and a screenshot: (Note that my font was set to large, i believe setting to medium or default will not word-wrap the battery % [due to my long distance read-out]).
My battery alert still alarmed at my pre-set limit, warning me to land. I did not test any return to home features, but i presume full functionality.
It does not have the HUD grid-lines, but i requested this feature. You will not get any geo location warnings, wind warning or other, so please be careful and safe. Also you would not have a find-my-drone upon lost aircraft (but then again, that's your fault, lmao).
Thank you UgCS !
Good luck!
