In Developer options in Android if I change Bluetooth Audio Codec ( to aptx hd for example) ,the settings are not savet and turned back to default. How to fix this ?
That's probably because the Bluetooth device you're paired with doesn't actually support aptX HD.

I'm having an issue with my R5 I hope y'all can help me figure out.
I've been able to connect to the wifi hotspot on my phones to run Spotify. Unfortunately it suddenly started having an issue where it's connected to wifi but when I try to play Spotify it says that I have no internet connection.
Has anyone had this issue, where you are clearly connected but for some reason the app doesn't recognize it?
Thanks for any help anyone could provide. I use my R5 with My Beyerdynamic T 1.3 and it is such a good match it almost makes hooking the headphones up to my Ifi Zen can Signature pointless.

Are you sure you are actually connected to the internet? Try loading a website and check the connection speed. I find R5’s WiFi connectivity generally poor.

Yeah, it's connected. It's getting a 5g signal from a phone it is literally sitting next to. It's not the fastest connection, but it is connected.

I fixed the connectivity issue. I updated the firmware, problem solved.

Hi all, I have a question

Is hiby r5 better when compared to dongles like paw s2,RU-6,W2 or ua5?
It depends what headphones/IEMs you are using. The R5 is more powerful than the dongles, but if your headphones are easy to drive, you may not need all that power. I like the R5’s sound but if you are streaming, it’s really crippled by its poor WiFi connectivity, which is somehow worse now than when I got it (on the same network). It’s also not the most responsive of interfaces with a very outdated processor. On the flip side, the dongles will deplete your phone’s battery and if you are using an iPhone the connection to the phone can be an issue. Of the dongles you mention, I have the W2, which I think sounds just terrific, but again the power is limited by what the phone it’s connected to can provide. For power requirements of different headphones, see e.g. http://www.digizoid.com/headphones-power.html
