Video transmission loss/freeze/exposure

[Moira]

Ok so I tried my data cable and a bunch others in my old Mac running 10.11.1, downloaded DJI Assistant 2 v1.2.4 and the HoRNDIS add on software. shutdown restarted. Nada. I even tried the disk utility to see if I could get it to mount. Unfortunately I don't have a micro usb device to test the cable data feature. But I labeled it as data. And every time I plugged in the computer I got the red light showing the controller was charging.

The only thing left to do is see if I can reset the wifi network and downgrade the DJI GO app which may actually cause more problems trying to connect to the controller.

Ok, I was able to reset the WiFi downlink. I can’t tell if that worked because the problem can be intermittent. And it’s 150* here and not conducive to being outside period.
So I just wanted to ask you guys some advice. Should I downgrade the app to 3.0.1. Grok says it is compatible with drone firmware 1.9.6. I’m running 1.9.2.

This should cure the “obtaining IP address” problem but wont do anything for the video loss and freezing. I’ll hold off on changing out that ribbon again for now. That will my full attention.

Firmware updates/downgrades should be avoided if possible, and only done if no other options are available.

The final firmware version for the DJI Phantom 3 Standard was 1.09.2

Firmware version 1.09.6 was for the Phantom 3 Advanced and Pro only....not the Standard.

I wont try to change the firmware on the drone but i thought it would be ok to downgrade the app on the phone. That shouldnt brick the drone? I have no way to check the version on the controller.

I'm not familiar with app versions for android devices....only IOS "crAPPLE" devices........as @RodPad calls them..........

He may offer some suggestions in that area.
