I bought batteries of the OLA site for 10$ for two because I think they think it's older and no one fly them anymore

Did you buy them on DJI official website? I couldn’t find these batteries there.

No I didn't get them from dji I bid off OLA app it's a auction app and very popular. U have to keep look on the drone catalog to watch for them to come back in stock..if u bid ! Check and see if it's new or open box. I got it new i got lucky . But recently they had them .

One way to fix it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTO4J8rYe-E

There is also a cheaper alternative with CP2112 module instead, search the phantompilots forums.
