Man I love this DC01, so convenient for my iOS devices and my PC.

Yes, I downloaded them all. But they're the OTA files (run them from the settings menu). You cannot downgrade this way. I'm asking about the .img files to run with android tool to get me back to the original firmware.
Not tried the B and W PX,although I have them. But have connected Beyer Dynamic Amiron. The headphones tell me it’s an aptxhd connection...and it sounds like it too! The Amiron do not give you this notification unless that codec is being used I am told that you can check the Bluetooth connection in Developer Options but my 220 does not have this option for some reason I.e developer options doesn’t exist on my device.
PX is great, no P9 but a respectable headphone for traveling no doubt. It seems then that the DX220 uses AptX HD (I agree it sounds like it) after all? I talked to @Paul - iBasso a few weeks ago and he didn't seem to think AptX HD was supported. Others on this thread have also indicated its not supported. And yet, it seems to be there!

Check the first post on the first page of this thread from Paul - has a few links including at least one of the img files.Yes, I downloaded them all. But they're the OTA files (run them from the settings menu). You cannot downgrade this way. I'm asking about the .img files to run with android tool to get me back to the original firmware.

Hope this helps. If not, hopefully Paul can provide what you need.

Yes,I have been confused by this too. In truth most devices that support LDAC support apt x hd although it’s not a vice versa equation. I actually asked my supplier,Advanced MP3 and they didn’t know,couldn’t find what codecs were on the device,and asked ibasso but did not get a reply. So,all I can say is that it sounds like the superior codec. If I use my M11 with the Amiron Home and select apt x as the devices Bluetooth the Amiron gives no message. If I then switch the M11 to aptxhd the Amiron say aptxhd activated. When I connect Amiron to the ibasso I get the hd message..so the Amiron is reading the signal as Aptx hd.
And actually I think the PX is more than a travel companion. No,it is not the P9 but it is a mighty fine headphone which outperforms almost all wireless sets and a hell of a lot of expensive wired headphones. I am a little biased though,I like the Bowers sound signature and it’s not to everyone’s taste.

A bit later as planned, but here's our very detailed DX220 review
https://www.headfonia.com/ibasso-dx220-review/
Nice review...but there’s a glaring error on page 4 you may want to rectify - the DX220 most certainly does have Mango OS in addition to the Mango Player in Android. Just like the previous iterations. Most seem to prefer the audio quality in Mango mode; main downside being that the Android Mango app has parametric EQ, while the Mango OS app does not. Hold the power button and you can boot into it.
(also, Android 8.1 is Oreo. Not Mango)

That worked for me, thanks!
I ask all those who have purchased the modified AMP8 form. Is it worth spending $ 399 to have a modified MOD + AMP8? Thank you all
YES absolutely. Go with the EX mod.

Great review, also iBasso made their name with the iconic DX100. Which was the flagship TOTL DAP in the very beginning of this "portable" hobby. It was the DAP that every othe DAP manufacturer tested theirs against. Yes, it was THAT good.
Still is.

You can. OTA files from the site can be used to downgrade as well.But they're the OTA files (run them from the settings menu). You cannot downgrade this way.

Hey guys, just a question, will the COAX cable for FiiO (DIY, TRRS) will work with the DX220?
Thanks in advanced.

I'm almost sure I'm using a FiiO coax cable right now at home when connecting DX220 to CMA400i.
Works fine

Hi Paul @ibasso - any chance of getting USB DAC mode to work with iPad or iPhone? IOS says it draws too much power.

That's great to know, thanks for the clarifying
I don’t think it can do this,I think iOS is too battery intensive. I have The Beyerdynamic Impacto for use with their headphones,it works without a separate battery on android,but requires the supplied battery for iOS. So,I guess they built the impacto that way knowing how iOS interacts.Hi Paul @ibasso - any chance of getting USB DAC mode to work with iPad or iPhone? IOS says it draws too much power.
Probably It would be better if ibasso implement support for air play 2 in dx220?Hi Paul @ibasso - any chance of getting USB DAC mode to work with iPad or iPhone? IOS says it draws too much power.

Hi, will the dx220 be charging when it is at usb dac mode?
I asked the same question here:
https://www.head-fi.org/threads/dx220-thread-for-software-requests.906199/page-19#post-15109052
and got this answer from Paul:

However my additional question didn't get a reply:
