 ====== Firmware Module Mixing ====== ====== Firmware Module Mixing ======
-DJI firmware contains multiple modules for different functions. For example one for the camera, one for the ESCs, one for the flight controller and so on. The important one is the flight controller module(s) because the modified parameters are stored and used within this part of firmware. These are modules 305 and 306.+DJI firmware contains multiple modules for different functions. For example one for the camera, one for the ESCs, one for the flight controller and so on. The important one is the flight controller module(s) because the modified parameters are stored and used within this part of firmware. These are modules 305 and 306. For the Noflyzone it is module 905. 
 +The mixing of the Firmware seems not possible anymore with Firmware V01.04.0400 and higher. It will lead to Error 200 which will prevent take-off. Stick to V01.04.0300 as bin file to delete the modules from. 
 +For downgrading a Mavic Pro to 1.03.0700, it requires the internal SD Card to be installed, which is not the case for newer versions of the Mavic. As a rule of thumb, one can say, that if your Mavic was delivered with a Version newer than 1.03.0700 (e.g. 1.03.1000), no internal SD Card is installed. This can only be fixed by a [[howto:recorder-sdcard-fix|harware modification]]
  
 DJI have made changes that prevent parameter changes in some of their recent firmware. To get all benefits from more recent firmware, without the downside of losing parameter changes, you will need to delete modules from recent firmware.   DJI have made changes that prevent parameter changes in some of their recent firmware.

 Start by installing a **tweakable** firmware file on your aircraft using [[https://github.com/jezzab/DUMLdore/releases|Dumldore (windows)]] or [[https://github.com/CunningLogic/DUMLFlasher|dumlflasher (win/Mac)]], then simply flash like normal. If you are jumping from the latest firmare version (say 1.04.0300) down to 1.03.0700, the update may stop at 82%. If that happens, give it time. It should then jump to 100%. If that happens, you will need to flash a second time to finish the rest of the update. Start by installing a **tweakable** firmware file on your aircraft using [[https://github.com/jezzab/DUMLdore/releases|Dumldore (windows)]] or [[https://github.com/CunningLogic/DUMLFlasher|dumlflasher (win/Mac)]], then simply flash like normal.

-After flashing, you can modify the parameters. The only parameter which will be affected by the next update is the battery settings, all other parameter mods will remain. +Note: More recent versions of firmware (Mavic 1.04.0000+) will require you run a step to defeat the anti-rollback tech DJI implemented. You can use dumldore v2, v3 or the [[https://github.com/CunningLogic/DUMLRacer|dumlracer tool (Windows and Mac)]]. This applies to Inspire 2, Phantom 4 and Phantom 4 Pro as well.

 CAUTION - when flashing with modded .bin files and monitoring progress with Assistant, you may get a firmware failed message.   Be patient.  It didn't fail, only the module you deleted did, since the flash procedure expects that module to be present in the firmware.  Its on the bird already, so that module gets skipped, keeping the older module. Let it do it's thing and be patient. CAUTION - when flashing with modded .bin files and monitoring progress with Assistant, you may get a firmware failed message.   Be patient.  It didn't fail, only the module you deleted did, since the flash procedure expects that module to be present in the firmware.  Its on the bird already, so that module gets skipped, keeping the older module.
