@FiiO Thanks for the answer. I take this opportunity to ask you if you have an update schedule about the release of an android or windows app to manage the Q5. I don't mean a player, but just something where I can set the shutdown time (for example). I don't have an iPhone nor an Apple computer.

Yes, the q5 was still being charged. It is not actually a cable, but an otg adapter I got from amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07449RJV8/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1). Its description doesn't say anything explicitly about the id pin, but it did mention making the phone a host so I thought it should work, but maybe it's false advertisment?
Anyway, I then bought the cable for oppo ha-2 from ebay (which hasnt arrived yet) as others suggested, but I do actually want one that's longer (~50cm). Is there any longer cable that's known to work? Thanks!

Dear friend,

You may contact one of our seller(wang@ddhifi.com) having those cable for help. He could provide a 80cm one.

Best regards

oh ok, thanks!

Another thing that I'd like to know: there's a way to increase the brightness of the leds?
The manual is very poor (no instructions about that) and that could be useful, because Q5 was designed for portable usage but when you are outdoor it's really hard to tell if the q5 is on and in what mode is connected...

Dear friend,

Generally, USB connection may get better sound quality. But Bluetooth connection could be protable.

Dear friend,

Sorry, the brightness of the LED could not be adjusted.

Yes I know the difference between BT and USB? The question is related to your following post :

Dear friend,

The micro USB port on the side is used for charging and Bluetooth update. [....]

The way I understand it is: If FiiO ever decides to update the Bluetooth firmware you will have to use this port to update it. To update the Q5 internal firmware you will need to use the bottom port.

Are you saying it could in the future get aptx hd?

IMO the brightness of the LED is perfect as is. No need to be brighter, or it would be annoying indoors or when charging in the dark in the same room where sleeping.
I'll use the Q5 80% at my desk and 20% outside... so it is the other way around for me.

It's not "hard to tell" what mode you're in when on the go, because you're either in
Bluetooth mode / no cable attached / easy to tell
OR
USB mode / cable attached / easy to tell.
If no music is playing in either mode it will shut itself off after timeout so no need "to tell" if it's on or off.

Aren't you sick of BLUE BRIGHT LEDs ? I surely am...

Dear friend,

Sorry, the brightness of the LED could not be adjusted.

Best regards

Perfect!
Please only make it adjustable if maintaining the current brightness level as an option.

Completely agree. The current led brightness is perfect.

AptX HD is not an option with the Q5 since Q5 doesn't have the hardware. CSR8675 Bluetooth chip is required for AptX HD. Q5 has CSR8670 chip.
