Yes sorry servers are still down. I'll check back in tomorrow to give an update.

Hi @Matt Bartlett

When update server will be up and running? I would like to upgrade to 2.0

Thanks mashuto. We will take another look at LDAC but I can't promise anything. Like a lot of new technology we have to see how widely it is adopted before we invest in development. However I can see that quite a few phones are now including it.
From memory when I last looked it would only work if the product was running Android OS but that may have changed now. Anyway it's something else to think about.

@Matt Bartlett correct, LDAC works so far with Android, the good news is that all Android v9 got LDAC support! Great gift from Sony, although I think the only headphones capable to use LDAC are those from Sony, what a gift...

OK, I have been playing with the Poly/mojo with the new firmware for a few days now. Decided I cant keep to the limitations of my ChiFi DM6's. This is just too good. Just pulled the trigger on a new pair of IEM's to compliment my new #1 rig . Thanks Chord you just cost me £1.5k ….. but in a good way . Now my #1 road rig is a bit of a dream for me... I have probably been waiting for this moment for 4 or 5 years and the new firmware pushed me over the edge …..

Yes Poly will still function normally on 1.0.41.

Yes, mostly works. What doesn't work is adding a new wifi network via GoFigure. You hit the button SUBMIT and nothing happens. Quite unfortunate after the factory reset I did when trying to accept the advertised 2.0.0 update which turned out to be denied. Fortunately, adding a netwrok on the hotspot mode wifi login page still works on 1.0.41 so the sweet music wasn't denied.

I did a factory reset to try going to 2, obviously I’m still on 1.0.41 but I have been able to add 3 wifi networks back to the poly since it went to .41
I am on iOS though, are you android?

Also on iOS. Adding the first network yesterday went alright but today I am not able to add any more networks via Gofigure

LDAC has been around for a while now. And practically every newer Android phone supports it now thanks to Google's adoption into the OS, so that's not a 'few phones', it's tons. Moving to the future, there's not really any excuse to exclude it in an audiophile-class player, and more-so aptX HD, which in my opinion was an oversight to not be included in Poly. Even Fiio's little Bluetooth audio receiver, the BTR3, has LDAC and aptX HD capability.

Which new pair of IEMs if you wouldn't mind me asking

Chromecast Audio (puck) optical out to Mojo works for me reliably with Roon to 24/96 also.

 

[mpickup]

My CCA Firmware is 1.39.151425. Working as Roon endpoint to 24/96.

 

[mpickup]

The Chromecast Audio output with a normal cable is analog from the not too good internal DAC. You need optical cable to get the bits out.

I’ve tried to update a few hours ago, unfortunately I did not check this thread and it seems like the servers are down and i can’t seem to update? Anyway I tried to do a factory reset and now I’m stuck with the poly p light having a solid white light, I can’t seem to get it to go away and reconnect to Gofigure now. Was hoping someone can help

Thanks for this info. I'm working on it.
Over the air updates are normal practice now and nearly everything uses this method of updating firmware - even my washing machine comes with an app to update it via the internet now!
Updating via the SD card will not be possible. It opens up security issues where Poly could then be rooted/hacked via code on an SD card and we can't risk that. I'm sure as customers you wouldn't want some harmful code inadvertently put on your SD card that could then use Poly as an open port into your WiFi network. Keeping the firmware update over the air allows us to fully encrypt the file to and from Poly ensuring the highest level of security. I understand that in your case it's a pain and something isn't working but we will find out why and solve the problem.

Trust me Matt, you can do it without security issue if your firmware only trust a signed firmware package. My company provides OTA-updates for tons of cryptocurrency mining machine. :-D
As most of foregin CDN is blocked in China it's really hard for me to upgrade it. I have to setup a vpn / tunnel with my router...
