Dear friend,

Which output port are you using? And it seems that the Q5s doesn't have 1.4 firmware.

Best regards

This is what it says in the Fiio control app. Anyway, I just updated to iOS 14.4 and it seems problem has vanished 😀

I just bought the FIIO Q5S TC from B&H. It hasn't arrived yet. What I would like to know is if I can use any charging brick to charge it. Will the Q5s TC control the current? Also when battery is full, will the device stop charging to prevent over charging?
Just got my unit delivered, and yes, it does seem to stop charging once all 4 LEDs is lighted.
Hope you enjoy yours once it arrives.

Does some of you also have the issue that the Q5S mostly wants to play audio via Bluetooth, even thought in the Control App, charging via USB is set to OFF. Sometimes I get it, by pure luck, to play audio out of my phone via the USB cable. @FiiO Kang : Would there be a procedure to follow to get it to work always easily?

Awesome! Also how did you charge it? Right now my PC is dead. Motherboard died. I have a few charging bricks but they are all fast chargers. Will it be fine?
I am just using an old iphone charger with a. USB A to USB C cable.
The charger gives some 1A output, probably not going to kill it as it is rather small by today's standard. I guess.

U have to select the input audio either through the USB input button on the left side or BT connection on the right side and make sure the USB cable is appropriately connected in line with the arrow indicators if u r using the USB connection.

The charging option to On or OFF should normally be selected at Fiio Control Panel.

FiiO's page "https://www.fiio.com/q5stypec_comparisons":
Under " Power and Battery " section, it said "DC5V 2A (Recommended".
Will your fast chargers give more than 2A?

certainly not faster, cause limited by internal usb power limiter 💃 but i preferred slow 1A charging to minimize heat ( heat is lithium battery enemy )

I don't think that Q5s internal charging structure support the fast charging feature. But any charger even with the fast charging features will work ok with Q5s and to be safe, make sure it does not exceed the recommended specifications of 2A.
