Did not work either. Said the Hiby R3 is an unsupported USB device. So without a change in the Hiby software i can only play bluetooth audio on the car.

Maybe Hiby can fix their software to avoid this issue . It’s clear to me that the Hiby software is presenting itself as an Android device . at present I can only use Bluetooth audio with the R2 and R3

I'm sure I'm not the only one that cannot make a wired connection to my car.

I'm sure I'm not the only one that cannot make a wired connection to my car. well there must be something in the HibybR2 and R3 software that is telling my car head unit it’s a android device The R3 actually went to enable Android auto screen before it failed to make a connection

Doesn’t work says unable to connect to android auto on the screen.Both the R2 and R3 II say same thing so it’s impossible to connect as neither are android devices .

Nope

Well my phone that has a dac can do it.

It expects to see a digital to analog music transfer just like my phone does. My phone has a dac just like the Hiby does. It can play music , the Hiby cannot. My car does not have an aux jack .

I want to know why I can’t connect the R2 or R3 via usb cable to my car and play music ? I prefer not to use Bluetooth. The error message I get is “can’t connect to Android Auto “ but we know these devices aren’t Android models . It’s ridiculous I cannot connect these devices to my car to...

Will Tidal login ever be fixed?

So that’s a bug that should be fixed by Hiby

For a pair of earphones that depends on a bluetooth connection to operate , it’s pretty bad that some are having dropouts.

That would defeat the purpose of having these earbuds

I returned mine . Don’t need the aggravation and I mostly use wired headphones anyway.

Funny thing is with the same dap , phone it doesn’t happen with the Technics in the same precise locations as it did with the Sony XM5s

I used the Technics at the gym and not a single cutout using LDAC or AAC.

Well I returned my xm5’s and bought the Technics. They sound better than the xm’5s . Now the gym test tomorrow . See if I get a lot of cutouts . I have AirPod pro 2 and never get any cutouts in the gym.

So get into a crowded area off the train and let us know what happens

Take them in a crowded area. Let me know how many cutouts you have.

I sure hope Sony can fix this.

Yep . I have XM4’s and they don’t have the problem

Please. If they were Apple Airpod Pros's this would not be happening.

I returned mine because of this problem in the gym.

Yeah clearly an interference issue
