Can you Rollback Firmware from 02.04.21.30 to older version ?

harleymhs · Feb 10, 2022

Hey Guys, I just updated my firmware to 02.04.21.30 and I wanted to roll it back to prev version. I tried with Drone hack, DJI *** 2 no luck. I read if I went to this version I can not ever go backwards. Is this true? TIA

Very true. Last possible chance to downgrade was on 02.04.2080

Why do you need Drone Hacks? Do you want to fly illegally?

Oh okay, but there is no reason to roll back, is there?
Are you having issues with current firmware?

Actually the past week I made a roolback to my AIr2S to 02.04.2120, with DH. The last version (2130) have GSSN issues and DJI sabotaging the drone reducing the Signal strength. But I can't rollback the RC-N1, with the last version had only 70% of the signal strength (DJI sabotage for to rise sells of RC Pro) and I want to use the previous firmware version

Are there a lot of people complaining about 2130 , with loss of signal? I did notice an issue last weekend.

This forum is sometimes frustrating with everyone jumping to conclusions about doing things illegally and trying to be the drone police.

I no longer fly a DJI drone that isn't unlocked via DroneHacks because it's too frustrating dealing with DJI's maps that don't always coincide with FAA data. Personally, I always fly legally, yet I can't stand the extra barriers DJI puts in the way to my LEGAL flights. The time may seem inconsequential to some, but not to me. I fly dozens and dozens of jobs a week, and sometimes it feels like I'm spending more time unlocking zones with DJI that I am flying.

I've heard that a potential exploit has been identified with the Mavic 3 and there may be an unlock on the horizon. Until that time, I would never buy a new DJI drone and would be forced to buy an Autel if it came to having to replace one.

I agree completely with this post. I have had several flight geofenced in areas that the FAA had no restrictions a few in areas with no cell reception so nothing can be done at that time.
