Mini Pro 3 and Nokia C31

I am usually an ISO with a paid "Expert" account, so some of the errors that I experienced may be user generated, however I purchased a Nokia C31 Android phone to test Dronelink.
1st issue is that I am not receiving telemetry visuals back to the phone screen. I have checked with DJI Fly App and full visual imagery comes through to the phone. The mission can proceed, and it appears to take images as per mission plan however no mirroring to Nokia phone screen. Have updated Nokia to latest Android 12 version and downloaded latest APK Dronklink for modern drones (3rd May 2023). All permissions have been granted on the device for the app.

2nd issue was when flying a gird mission at 50m elevation, mission stopped less than 2 minutes after commencement of image start with drone having to be brought back home manually.

Thanks

Maybe these articles will help. If not there are other known issues with the new Mini 3 and other devices. There are so many device manufactures which use the Android OS and DL can’t test every one of them so it’s hard to know which will work without issues. If you click on the Beta thread section you may find something in one of those which list other problems. A good amount of issues listed there. If the help articles don’t give you the answer I’m sure DL staff will assist.

The Mini 3 beta support article mentions that some devices do not have a live video feed:

As for the app crashing, it has been reported many times already, for example:

From the linked thread:

DJI thinks MSDKv5 may not work with Android 13 devices. They haven’t confirmed it yet and are looking into it, and we probably won’t put out another build until they put out another version of the MSDK.
