Phantom 4 Transmitter Bricked

[Doddyz]

Hi I installed the latest firmware on my Transmitter and it said update completed please turn off the tx and back on. So i turned it off and now it wont turn on. No lights nothing.

Anyhelp much appreciated

I've never looked ( on my P3P) but is there a hard re-boot, like holding down multiple buttons? The only other thought I had was to disconnect the battery, if you can get to it...

Someone wrote this about a 2014 Phantom with the same issue and it worked. Obviously very different remotes but:

How to unbrick remote after failed update:
1- open up your remote control.
2- press the small switch on the main board and turn on the power.
3 - release the switch and all should be ok... You may need to turn off and on again.
Now you can retry the firmware update.

I check and couldnt see any small switches on the main board.

When I disconnect the battery and reconnect it will see the transmitter on the tablet. That its plugged in the tablet and nothing else But when you have a look at the about section where it shows the firmware version it just has zeros. Also no leds on the transmitter.
