When I use my IPad I can calibrate the compass even if has already been calibrated for that location. On my Samsung I don't get that choice.
Does anyone know how can I do a recalibration on my Android?
I saw one place that said try flipping the P-S switch up and back until a recalibration screen appears. Did not work for me.
 
I can't answer your question directly because the calibration option is always there for me on my Galaxy S5.

But what I will advise is not to continually recalibrate your compass if you're not having problems or receiving notices to do so.
 
You can also calibrate the compass from the following section of DJI GO:

I also have a galaxy s4 and it doesn't give me the calibration option there either. DJI support said it only gives it if needed. I am a new user 4 days. I was told by my experienced friend that has flown DJI drones for 2 years that he always does a recalibration prior to launch. I just want to avoid a flyaway.
