    iBasso DX150. Dual dacs and interchangeable AMPs. **NEW Firmware that supports AMP9! ** New FIRMWARE 1.05 Dec 30.

    Over time I have seen instances of what you said, where it sometimes takes some time for the OS to register the new battery percent. It feels like this is what was leading it to look like it was draining battery at a very slow rate, then after turning on screen briefly just to check battery and...

    iBasso DX150. Dual dacs and interchangeable AMPs. **NEW Firmware that supports AMP9! ** New FIRMWARE 1.05 Dec 30.

    Update: I paid for and installed "BetterBatteryStats" (since I saw you used that to demonstrate in your post) and recharged to 100% while in Android, then let it sit for ~3.5 hours. I come back and BBS says it was in deep sleep for 3h36m (99.5% of the time) and yet the battery is drained to 95%...

    So just to be clear, you aren't saying that it's bad for my battery to charge outside of Android (say when the device is turned off), or to boot up less than 30 minutes after shutting down... just that the battery readings will initially be inaccurate if I do that? I have media scanner...

    I use 275L2 and I get ~0.3% per hour sometimes, and other times >1% per hour. Seemingly random. Any suggestions on how I could diagnose my problem?

    I had same problem. Try twisting the mini toslink jack (not wobbling back and forth, just rotating it) while pushing it in lightly. for me this made it go in with no more than normal pressure.

    I did for sure notice this on 2.10.275-L0, so it isn’t specific to L1. I can’t say for sure if I saw it before that.

    I would have thought that one of the biggest advantages of Mango OS would be better standby battery life, but I disabled auto-off my DX150 just drained 9% in 3 hours on standby in Mango OS. Honestly, it seems like under the right conditions Android OS can do better than that. Oh well at least...

    iBasso DX150. Dual dacs and interchangeable AMPs. **NEW Firmware that supports AMP9! ** New FIRMWARE 1.05 Dec 30.

    Has anyone figured out how to consistently get decent standby battery usage on this thing? I sometimes get ~3-4% battery usage per day (awesome) on standby, and sometimes 25%. Seemingly random. It's frustrating because I know with the right conditions, it *can* use a sensible amount of battery...

    I was getting this exact same behavior on the official FW 2.9.250. I tried all kinds of suggestions from googling what might fix this. Supposedly it has to do with a mismatch between play services & play store. Nothing I tried made it work, until eventually Lurker firmware was released. If you...

    I'll have to check. Do you think either 2.4GHz or 5GHz is less likely to exhibit EMI noise?

    iBasso DX150. Dual dacs and interchangeable AMPs. **NEW Firmware that supports AMP9! ** New FIRMWARE 1.05 Dec 30.

    Is it normal to get EMI noise from this thing? Even an occasional "beep" when using wifi? Using Andromeda (of course known for emphasizing any hiss or noise from your system), 3.5mm TRS single-ended output, things sound really clean on balanced w/ WiFi turned off, but with WiFi on, I basically...

    @Paul Any chance we could get Mango to better support whole album FLAC+CUE? It already kind of supports it: it finds the individual songs, and plays them, but it first plays from the beginning of the FLAC for a brief moment (less than a second) instead of from the beginning of the song. This...

    Instructions don't say anything about USB out anywhere I've found, and I haven't tried it. But there is a digital out 3.5mm port that doubles as either mini digital coax, or mini digital optical.

    Solution for others who may be having this problem with using a mini TOSLINK cable in their DX150 SPDIF port: I ordered cables from another brand, and they also took several tries to get them inserted. Finally I realized that a trick that works well for me is to rotate the cable while applying...
