Unable to Connect Osmo Pocket or DJI Pocket 2 Using a Mobile Phone Adapter

Applicable products: DJI Pocket 2, Osmo Pocket

1. Check whether your mobile phone is on the DJI Mimo Phone Compatibility List; if not, try using another compatible phone to ensure stability.

2. Remove the mobile phone case before connection to ensure proper contact between the adapter and the phone port.

3. Ensure that the data port on your mobile phone is functioning properly and can be used to transfer data. You can test this by connecting your mobile phone to a computer. If data cannot be transferred, contact the phone's customer service for a hardware inspection.

4. Inspect the contact pins on the adapter and the Universal Port on the device for any defects:

① If there are stains, use anhydrous alcohol to clean the contact pins, wait for the pins to dry, and then try again. If a connection still cannot be established, try other accessories such as the Mini Control Stick or Controller Wheel. If none of these works, send the device back for inspection.

② If the adapter is misshapen or loose, purchase a new one from the DJI Store.

5. If you are using an iPhone:

Turn your mobile phone over and connect the adapter in the reverse direction. If this method works, the adapter is probably faulty, and we suggest replacing the adapter. If the connection is still impossible, try forcing your iPhone to restart.

6. If you are using an Android mobile phone:

Ensure that after being connected to an adapter, the mobile phone indicates that it is being charged and prompts you to select a USB connection option.

① If there is no charging indication and no prompt for USB connection options: Try using another mobile phone, such as an iPhone instead of an Android device.

② If there is a charging indication but no prompt for USB connection options: Check whether the developer mode is enabled on the mobile phone. Enable USB debugging and try connecting again.

③ If there are a charging indication and a prompt for USB connection options: Select "Charge only" or "Transfer files" (if "Charge only" does not work, switch to "Transfer files") and then run the DJI Mimo app to try connecting again.

7. Use a different phone on the Compatibility List to conduct a cross test:

① If the connection can be established with phones running a different OS (for example, USB-C adapters for Android do not work but a USB-C to Lightning adapter for iPhones works), this indicates the adapter is faulty. Please purchase a new adapter from the DJI Store.

② If the connection can be established with phones running the same OS (for example, a USB-C adapter for Android works when connected to another mobile phone but does not work when connected to the user's phone), try forcing the phone to restart.

How to force a mobile phone to restart:
Android: Press and hold the power button for over 15 seconds.

Applicable products: Osmo Pocket 3, DJI Pocket 2, Osmo Pocket

1. Check whether your mobile phone is on the DJI Mimo Phone Compatibility List; if not, try using another compatible phone to ensure stability.

2. If you are using Osmo Pocket or DJI Pocket 2, ensure that the Do-It-All Handle or Wireless Module is connected to the camera and that the touchscreen shows that the device is connected.

3. Ensure that both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your mobile phone are enabled and no other devices are connected to the phone. If your phone supports WLAN+, WLAN Assist, or other similar features, disable them to prevent automatic Wi-Fi network switching.

4. Ensure your phone has the latest version of the DJI Mimo app, and grant all necessary permissions to the app, including location or GPS access.

Osmo Pocket with Wireless Module: Swipe down on the touchscreen to enter the System Settings page. Then, go to Accessories and reset the Wireless Module (swiping from right to left). Upon resetting, try to connect again.

Osmo Pocket 3: Swipe down on the camera screen, go to Settings > Wireless Connection > Reset Wi-Fi > Reset, and try reconnecting.

6. If the device's Wi-Fi name appears on the mobile phone's Wi-Fi list, tap it and enter the password to manually connect it.

Osmo Pocket 3: Swipe down on the touch screen, go to [Settings > Wireless Connection > Wi-Fi Info], and view the device's Wi-Fi name and password.

After the connection is successful, go to the DJI Mimo app and tap "Device" in the top-left corner of the homepage to directly access the camera view.

7. If the device's Wi-Fi name does not appear on the mobile phone's Wi-Fi list, change the Wi-Fi frequency band of the Osmo Pocket Series device and try again.

How to change the frequency band:

Osmo Pocket with Wireless Module: Swipe down on the touchscreen and go to [Settings > Wireless Connection > Wi-Fi Frequency > 2.4GHz/5.8GHz].

Osmo Pocket 3: Swipe down on the touchscreen and go to [Settings > Wireless Connection > Wi-Fi Frequency > 2.4GHz/5.8GHz].

8. Use a different phone on the Compatibility List to conduct a cross test and check whether the Wi-Fi of the Osmo Pocket Series device is displayed on the phone's Wi-Fi list.

① If other phones cannot detect the Wi-Fi either, send the Osmo Pocket Series device and accessories back for inspection. Click to submit an Online Repair Request.
