Connecting to d7200 over wifi or with cable

Post by michaelc »

I am having issues connecting with my tablet over WiFi (Nikon app works) or via cable.
I am using the LG Gpad 8 X. I finally got it to work via the cable once and than the app just kept crashing.

I tried connecting over WiFi with my phone, LG G6 and it wont connect, again the Nikon app connects. I don't have the proper cable to connect to it since its the USB C instead.

I have made both forget the internet WiFi, Tried in Airplane Mode. I know the cables are good as it connected to both my computer and to an old phone and tried to import the photos one it.

Both worked fine on my LG G4 before it died.

Be sure the Nikon WMU application is closed/stoped (eventually uninstall it) as it will automatically connect to the camera and prevent qDslrDashboard to connect.

Did that. Still didn't connect. Another app Helicon remote, did connect via cable. Not sure why qdslr wont and then crashed. Maybe uninstall and reinstall?

In qDslrDashboard settings enable the 'Use Android native USB access' and then connect.

I think I did that but I will double check. I was getting frustrated with it.
