Fuji XT3 Stuck in "Pair with SmartPhone" mode

My Fuji XT3 started up with "Pair with Smartphone." I do not have the app. I have never paired it before. It does not allow me to move past this in any way. I have removed the battery. I have put in new batteries. I have tried to update firmware, but I can't get past this screen. HELP!

I am not trying to pair. I even deleted the app. It’s just in that mode when I turn the power on and there is no way out. There are no buttons that allow me to navigate. Just the “ok” which gets me stuck in a loop. I’ve tried inserting different batteries and still same. Stuck.

Exuse me, how did you do that, can you help me? I have the same problem

 

Olaf's suggestion should work.

Take the main battery out, turn the power switch to on and leave the camera on the shelf for some number of days -- give it four or five. This will make the small internal settings back up battery drain completely and reset the camera to the last firmware default settings which should remove its desire to pair with a smartphone/tablet.

    • Looking more like the next Fuji camera we see will be an X-T50 but it is still a rumor and no specs have been published.
    • Hey guys, The shutter on/off button switch may be loose on mine. After turning camera on and pressing the shutter/holding close to the area, the camera will turn off and say 'sensor cleaning'. This doesn't happen if I'm shooting via touch screen at all. Everything else is functional. Anyone else experience this before? Would love a much cheaper fix since Fuji Canada just quoted me $700 CAD to fix it, and considering everything else is functional except that part I'm not even sure why MPMB Main Board parts is being replaced😕 I got no explanation from them either.
    • As far as I know the firmware is not country specific. Are you sure that the filename has not been changed ( I am told this can happen with mac os). That's the only thing I can think of.
    • My x-t5 does not exhibit the focusing switch behaviour as you report it, so that is very strange and indicative of a fault. It does not matter whether the flash is attached or not. Once you set the camera for your studio flash, say 1/250th at f5.6, the camera, which is showing you what you will get at that exposure without the flash, will show a black screen unless the ambient light is brighter than what you would typically get indoors. That is why, as Jerry says, you have to set preview exp/wb to off. I have set a button for this.
    • I connected to FRAME.IO a while back and it works fine, but the camera wouldn't connect to the internet all of a sudden today and would get stuck on the reset screen, including initializing and even switching USB Connection mode. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
