I have been using v700 on the RC and Mavic with my Galaxy Tab A as the Go 4 host. I had to start the RC, Mavic, then Tab A in that order or Go 4 would not work. Even then, I would occasionally need to restart the Tab A. The Here map stopped working and the Go 4 app just seemed to get more unstable to the point that I was losing confidence in it.

Since I felt I had nothing to lose, I updated the RC, Mavic, and the Tab A to the latest versions and it all works beautifully! Go 4 starts when the RC is plugged in or I can start it separately. The Mavic shows up quickly and the Here map even works (I had to load the off-line map, but I couldn't even do that before).

So . . . it looks like the combination of updates has fixed the problem with my Galaxy Tab A. I will test more extensively tomorrow and let you know how it goes.

Info:
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Model #SM-T350, 1.5 GB
Android version: 7.1.1
Mavic & RC: v01.04.0000
Go 4: v4.1.10
 
I think I’ve discovered a solution to the error “Lost signal” and an Android (v5.1) error “Unfortunately Go 4 app has stopped”.

I've received my Mavic pro from warranty repair on Oct 8 2017 and was disappointed that after trying to activate the go 4 app the screen showed an android error which I eventually sensed that I had a problem with the Samsung Tab A not DJI.

For me the Samsung Tab A was purchased because I was frugal. Some people would call me cheap. Anyway, I reset my Samsung Tab A to a clean start and that so far seems to have solved all my problems. I now relegate the Samsung Tab A as primary use for my Mavic Pro. BTW I'm surprised your Tab A works with only 1.5GB

Info:
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Model #SM-T280, 8 GB
Android version: 5.1
Mavic & RC: v01.04.0000
Go 4: v4.1.15
 
It probably wasn't the firmware it'll be the app version, some devices run more smoothly with the older 4.1.3 and some with the newer 4.1.9 >

My Sony was to laggy to fly with on 4.1.3 then I updated to 4.1.9 and its super smooth, still use 4.1.9 sometimes also use 4.1.15 the latest, due to the Sony being so laggy I ordered a dedicated phone, dji released 4.1.9 while I was waiting for delivery, both devices work well with newer apps although I haven't tried 4.1.3 on the Le S3

Info:
Phone 1: Sony XZ, Model F8332, 64 GB
Android version: 7.1.1
Phone 2: Le S3, Model X626, 16GB
Android version: 6.0
Mavic: v01.03.0400 & v01.04.0000 mix
RC: v01.04.0000
Go 4: v4.1.9(as clone) & v4.1.15
