    FiiO BTR3-The World' First Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier, SBC/AAC/aptX/aptX LL/aptX HD/LDAC/HWA (LHDC)

    Well, my BTR3 just started intermittently powering off all the time the last 2 days, even when laying undisturbed on a table while playing music... Trying to turn it back on works barely on long enough to do the power-on beep a few times, before it suddenly starts working again. But now it's...

    I happen to have a oneplus 7 pro as well, and have no such issues with the volume... The volume controls are independent, so make sure to set the phone-bluetooth-volume to max and then adjust the actual volume on the BTR3 itself. (sidenote: if you are using a linux system and pulseaudio, pay...

    Yeah, mine is pretty scratched/worn from very gentle storage(no coins) in my pocket when it's not in use... :/ Then again, I only need the blinking colour codes to see it turns off properly, or to identify the codec, so it's not that big of a deal in practical terms, but ofc sucks from an...

    To be fair they only state they support windows, right? So if we can get it working unofficially with other platforms that's just a bonus for us, but not something we can expect...

    Ah, the computer I use most often for firmware upgrades is a Lenovo T480s, and it has 2 usb-c ports, one with thunderbolt support. - The thunderbolt port never works properly, - I have to plug it into the other port to get things to work (also applies to some external usb storage, it just keeps...

    Could be your usb ports, - perhaps you can try another one? Or if you are using a usb-hub, try directly without the hub? (I have a Lenovo Thinkpad W541 where this occurs frequently on the usb3 ports, but never on the usb2 ports...) Edit: You should also capture the last few lines of the command...

    It defaults to LDAC selected when you enabled high-fi/ldac on the bluetooth device page, however, it falls back to "Best Effort (Adaptive bit rate)" setting when the device reconnects (along with 96kHz, 32bit, Stereo). This was the same on Pixel2, Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge as well as the Oneplus 7...

    Apart from the standard Android stuff where you have to go to developer settings every time you connect the BT device in order to get 990, - no issues. Can't really speak for the range, I typically wear both phone and btr3 when I use them (got the BTR3 due to no headphone jack on the phone)

    I'm using my BTR3 with Shure SE535 IEMs, no problems at all :) And yes, the volume control is independent, and the steps are fine for me (not that it should matter, but using LDAC, both from a Oneplus 7 Pro and an older Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge).

    Sorry to hear that... Perhaps you could share some details about your platform? And just to make sure, - you did follow the instructions to put it into DFU mode first? And running the commands or gui app with superuser privileges (note the sudo part from my linux terminal output)? (I should...

    Agreed, it would be great if @FiiO would officially support firmware upgrades on linux and osx as well as windows, especially as they seem to be using an open standard for flashing firmware anyway... In the meantime, you might want to check out some of my earlier posts on the subject: And...

    From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Device_Firmware_Upgrade Might not be officially supported, but you might want to try your luck with something like http://macappstore.org/dfu-util/ or https://www.thesycon.de/eng/dfu_utility_macos.shtml :wink: (I successfully upgraded the firmware of my...

    Thanks, that's what I arrived on as well. But since ALSA does detect the capabilities to just s16le and 48k/44.1k, and the pactl output from my previous post indicates the samples sent to the sink/card are indeed 16bit/44.1kHz, I would have assumed that was not needed. I have multiple other USB...

    It turns out I had tampered with my pulseaudio daemon.conf file, so it contained: resample-method = speex-float-10 avoid-resampling = true default-sample-format = s24le default-sample-rate = 44100 alternate-sample-rate = 48000 Commenting out the line with default-sample-format, or replacing it...
