I was hoping for hardware volume control. I'm so disappointed.

@FiiO Willson also in the Btr15 thread from a post yesterday by @FiiO I've seen that strangely the Btr7 is slightly less powerful at 320mW vs 340mW for the Btr15.

@ClieOS any thoughts about the Muse Hifi M4. I don't really need another bluetooth adapter (after the Btr3k, Btr5, Up5, Btr7 and an incoming GoBlu) but the new gear itch is slowly coming back. I was tempted by the Btr15 but the overall performance seems too close to the Btr7.

After starting with the BTR3k, BTR5, UP5 and lastly BTR7 (ordered the Go Blu not received yet) I just got my hand on my first dongle dac, namely the Truthear Shio. Color me impressed. Really great sounding and powerful device. Being quite small and light its very useable (given not the same use...

🤔 seriously? 🤪

@gc335 The issue with the screen not turning back on has been repeating. What i tried is connect to the UP5 with the app and change the screen off timer to 10s. Currently this has fixed the issue.

@FiiO why is there a toggle for desktop mode? Is this due to battery drainage if left on? Also would a usb cable with pass-through charging help with desktop mode?

Just when I thought things couldn't get worst - found out a few minutes back that the screen of my UP5 wouldn't turn on. I was listening with my iPhone connected the UP5 over usb (just got a cable today). Turned the unit off and on again but unfortunately the screen wouldn't turn on. The UP5...

@YanaMJ you're right. I feel kinda let down by Shanling with them not releasing any fw update in long long while. It was my first Shanling gear and frankly I have no confidence in the company.

Maybe there is a batch of UP5 with the bug that lowers paired device's volume on bluetooth. Mine definitely has lower volume on bluetooth with either iOS or android devices.

Same here. This issue has been bugging me since I got my UP5 more than one year back. What I discovered is that when paired to my android phone the UP5 reduces the phone volume to around 75% of max volume. One workaround i've found is to enable bluetooth absolute volume in developer options -...

@FiiO Dear Friend Big thanks for your support. Just as a reminder in my original post i mentioned that my Q5s has lost all bluetooth functionality and also the front indicator light no longer turns on (even in usb dac mode - to indicate bit rate). When I turn on the unit the bluetooth...

@FiiO thank you for the update. How to burn Bluetooth firmware again? Also in case module needs to be replaced - how to proceed? Regards.

@FiiO got my Q5s from the official reseller in my country 3 years back. I have already emailed Fiio Support and they have asked me to check my bluetooth version by connecting the Q5s over usb to a computer - will do same when I get back home today. I was hoping there would be some kind of easy...

Yes a few times even while under charge.
