reinstalled 6.5.2 mod data sync failed , looks like parots server is down or hacked ...

stay away if you want to fly ...

I had the same problem. The .apk from the Parrot site does not have the .obb file. I installed it separately using details from the apk mod thread (post 418) and the modded apk worked again. As the "world release" apk is 6.5.2, the same as the mod apk, I have not tried installing it again.

Hi all I have sent a message to parrot to find out what on earth is happening once I get a response I'll inform you.

Let's try be positive maybe there is a update coming.

Only app or new firmware Drone and controller?

whats new in the FF6 update???

Island Xpress · Aug 23, 2019

Installed on another Tablet new FF6 software rev 6.5.3 from Play Store. No problem.
Made a quick test, works as far as I can see now as 6.5.2.

Wishful thinking: hoped that maybe the problem of the missing frames during the transition from first to second segment would disappear.
Of course not, as the fault is clearly identified in the Anafi firmware. ?
Hope that new firmware is on the way as well. ?

The only difference is it will now install on your older devices but you will not have any of the newer options like GPS Lapse

Also I noticed after installing it to my older tablet and older phone trying to use the burst it would only take 1 photo. Using my newer phone it works perfectly. By allowing it to be loaded onto the older systems you would think they would have all the options working again.

Very strange. When I go to the Play Store and search Parrot drone apps or even FreeFlight 6 it does not show but if I go into my Apps section it shows up as the updated version. ?

Jagerbomb52 · Aug 23, 2019

If you follow this link which I think is in maybe French and translate it there seems to be a lot of updates for the Thermo but the App still has the old version number. So I am not sure what it going on.

just checked again... yep it's back.... wtf is happening with it...LOL

Maybe it will include a way to alter the max elevation? Would make the drone more useful.

Is there any wider problem with installing FreeFlight 6?
Today I installed it from independent APK site providing version for my 4.4.2 Android (previous to 6.5.x) and I was receiving "Synchronization failed. Check you internet connection" no matter what.
I hope there isn't problem with KitKat 4.4.2 on Galaxy S5. I was using it with Parrot Bebop2 and it was doing just fine.

Previous versions still alert with synchronization failed error.
But new version for Android is available now in Play Store - installed, runs smoothly with 4.4.2 KitKat.
I didn't receive any errors.
