So I had a sudden and 100% persistent "DISCONNECTED" problem running my P3A after almost 1-1/2 years of flying with zero issues. Long story short, it was a bad USB Module on the controller; "DISCONNECTED" is no longer a problem (the controller again connects to my Android tablet). Same firmwares and Apps still in place - no changes there at all.
But NOW I have new big problems - never before seen with this setup - and i sure hope I can get some help.
New Issues after replacing the USB Module:
The app has been uninstalled and reinstalled. the controller has its green light and does work. I've tried the mobile device with wi-fi on and off, and with airplane mode on and off (it is not data/phone enabled). As mentioned above, I have never had a whisper of a problem with any hardware or firmware until now.
Any clues about how to straighten this out???

New Issues after replacing the USB Module:
- Persistent "weak image signal" (100%, regardless of 1ft to 50ft proximity ranges attempted). No significant interference. No "bars" whatsoever. DO have the camera view, though it starts up a with messy green appearance.
- The settings show NO wifi signals - flat line - in the area on the channel page; does not matter whether Custom or Auto channel is selected - just nothing, even home wi-fi not showing at all.
- The firmware versions of the aircraft and controller do not show up (only the app version is indicated).
- The aircraft thinks it is a P3P (according to the App opening screen) and I cannot seem to drop down or scroll to change that to P3A as it should be.
