Hi Mark...I just purchased a Phantom 3 Standard and have been trying to update the firmware all afternoon. I'm so frustrated as I keep getting an error message that the Phantom 3 wifi says 'no internet connection'. I continue trying to connect, shut everything off, start again, and the same error message. You mentioned to another person that you can get the bin file from your phone...that is so far over my head. Any chance you could help guide me through? Thanks! Mary

With my P3S I get the 'no internet connection' every time I fly my bird. It only means the connection is not to the internet. When I got my update the Go app (android) was updated behind the scenes. Then the first time I went to fly after that, I had a big, red banner across the Go app, then I just followed the instructions from there. I hope this helps.

This is what I'm getting on my Iphone 5S:

Here is couple of threads..

Standard - I can't activate my new P3 Standard | DJI Phantom Forum

I can't get past the sign in stage! | DJI Phantom Forum

I think we're on to something here RoadPad....I also have HughesNet as my internet provider so I'll be taking it somewhere else for the update. Will let you know how everything turns out. Appreciate your help! Mary

Lets us know, I actually sold and installed the first 2 way satellite internet system until the model 360 modems were failing do to them not having fans in them and a bunch of other stuff.

Anyways I don't know why HughesNet would cause an issue. But the system's do work different compared to standard internet. Looks like Starband is shutting there doors, I haven't looked them up in at least 10 years.

What worked for me was changing to home WiFi to activate, then switch back to the Phantom WiFi once I had success. To upgrade the firmware, I did the same thing, once I started the upgrade, I changed the connection to my home WiFi, once it downloaded the file, I reconnected to the Phantom WiFi and it proceeded to install the update. There were no instructions for this, I just gave it a try and it worked.

In this firmware we should update radio? I cant find what is version firmware in my radio control.

Don't know, but do you have the remote, phantom powered on and have the mobile device connected when your on that screen?

 

[MaryfromPA]

I got it!! For whatever reason, HughesNet doesn't let it connect to the P3 WiFi so I used Comcast WiFi at a friends and it worked. Only 34 degrees out so just hovered and sat it back down. Charging everything up again and then possibly go out for my first true flight. Mary

Yeah Mary! Remember slow and easy. Beginners mode would be good for a while. Have fun.

Anyway the Asus being a android does not display the RC version even with everything powered up.The ipad2 even though is not listed usable and is a crApple displays RC "1.1.30"

Hi guys,

I'm new to the forum as well as flying. I just picked up a P3S last Saturday night. Spent a few hours Sunday setting it up and getting the new firmware. So far I've really enjoyed it except I keep getting notice while flying that the connection was lost but it reconnects right away. Also it seems when I turn I loose video, like a refresh. This is annoying as it makes it almost impossible to take video. Still pics are quite nice but the video is upsetting. I spoke to customer support at DJI and they were wondering if I had done the update and if it took. I was away from the P3S when I called so I couldn't see. Once home I saw that the controller and P3S shows 1.04 I believe and the app is current. I have an iPhone 6s and not really sure what to do next especially cause it's new.

Per the beginning of this thread:

A new firmware update (V1.2.0040) is now available for the Phantom 3 Standard. Please download and update your Phantom 3 Standard via the DJI GO app.
Overview：
1. All-in-One Firmware Updated to：v1.2.0040

It doesn't sound like you have the correct firmware. I have only flown my P3S once and I did see the signal lost message once, I was fairly far away and I was also not flying in a particularly open area (lots of trees and a few baseball stadium lights).

I would double check that your firmware update took first.

Ok, but when I turn on the bird and the remote, go into the DJI GO app. I don't see where I can download the firmware again tho I get the notice that there is a new update and make sure I'm current. I've read up on this a little bit and it seems that people are having to use the mini sd card to update? I guess I'm missing on how to wifi the download again.

I believe it is but how do I know it took?
