Reading this post caused me to go and check my own XT2 and Grip.
Mine worked fine, but checking the possible 'electronic' trouble areas one has to be aware that the electrical contact between the body and the grip is a multipin plug that does not make contact like a normal plug and socket.
The plug male ends protruding from the grip are not fixed but spring loaded to allow for any mechanical tolerance issues between both parts when joined together
The Female socket on the camera is in fact part of a printed circuit board.
Contact between pug and socket relies on low pressure contact between both.
Any ' dirt or residue' on the camera board could cause poor or no contact on an individual or multi pin basis which would possibly lead to many of the issues listed. Likewise any issue with the velvet gasket on the grip or sticky male pins could be a problem.
Keep the rubber cover on the camera at all times its not mated to the grip.
A good quality electronic contact cleaner could be used to wipe the female printed board on the camera but Fuji should recommend this.
A good camera or electronic shop may help with this.
I instantly lost that rubber cap on both my xt1 and xt2 but only my xt2 has this problem. I've never heard of this issue with xt1(maybe im wrong and its a thing). I also used my xt1 heavily. Like lots of brazing lots of beatings, all weekend raves, festivals, world travel etc and really no problems. vert grip on and off and on again. I've been much more careful with my xt2 as im using it for client work mainly and this vertical grip issue is a big problems. Let me know if anyone has updates.

Looks like this years long problem persists. I too have the double dead batteries indicator with genuine 126s fully charged in my vertical grip.
So do we assume this is an indicator issue and not a contact/power issue ?
either way this sucks.

So I've discovered that there is no way to downgrade / roll back / downdate fuji firmware. its very unfortunate. I do it from time to time with drives for my graphics card for example if my system is crashing after a new release. really wish fuji would let me roll back manualy.
I'm also not finding a way to factory reset X/

I installed 4.0 as soon as it was released. Even though the release has been pulled because some users were having issues I’m not having any problems so I’m sticking with it. Has anyone here had any problems?
my problem is the roll back itself! i found out the hard way that the 4.01 fix is a roll back to 3.0, lost internal f log! I also formatted my cards from the previous update! If someone has the 4.0 dat file they could send I would be very thankful. I'm needing 4k f-log for a drone shoot in a few days and don't have time to source a 4k external recorder. I would even send a little btc in return, no kidding.

friends, I just read on the fuji site that 4.01 is a roll back to 3.0 and now I cant shoot f-log in camera. I shoot drone in two days and I promised 4k f log to the director and dp. I don't have time to source an external 4k recorder. I could use a .dat of the 4.0 but cant find it anywhere. can someone post a copy. I just chatted with a xt2 4.0 f-log shooter on instagram and he's not having any problems - running 4.0 is a risk im willing to take. let me know if you have and can post a copy.
x love
Fujifilm Releases X-T2 Firmware 4.10 and X-H1 Firmware 1.10

x-t2 Firmware 4.10
I've noticed something rather disappointing with recording F-log - There is no way to record 4K F-log internally and send a signal to an external viewing monitor(not recording) via HDMI out. This makes x-t2 and x-h1 a non starter for drone capture since the drone needs an hdmi out so it can relay a picture to the ground. I just get a black screen via HDMI - its like having a blind camera operator. Am I missing something? Is there a data limit that wont allow for F-log 4K and hdmi out? Seems like it shouldn't matter since f-log is compressed and non-f-log 4K seems to work just fine.
let me know what you all think.
