@ccase39, is this on android 4.1? which device are you using? There is a known issue with Android 4.1 and the black maps, this is something we want to fix asap.
@Yaw Master Orienting the phantom while in a GS mission does not seem possible right now due to firmware limitations. We are looking at other ways of doing POI.
@G-unit This is very difficult to debug since I don't own a nexus 7. You should try with airplane mode disabled if you haven't already, generally you shouldn't need to enable it.
I am not quite sure what could cause your wi-fi to disconnect, I know some samsung phones have the smart network switch but I don't think you have that on nexus 7? is that happening when yoHiu're close to the phantom?
