  I have one big problem with my X5iii (and many minor ones which haven't detracted from my enjoyment of the device). Any internet radio apps "lose connection" on a regular basis. I've noticed that downloads from almost any source have very variable rates so I am suspicious that the wireless connection is flaky.
 
The X5 is the only device I have that suffers from internet radio disconnects (I have a fair few what with laptops, desktops and mobile phones) but the X5 is the one I want most to work - any one else suffering from this?

 
Yes. If there is anything I am unhappy with, it's everything that has something to do with it's WiFi.
 
My phone downloads everything very fast but Fiio takes forever to get an app. Deezer freezes very often when streaming from Fiio and never from my phone. Streaming is a hit and miss
 
Fiio should really have a look at the drivers.

Hello,
 
When the FiiO X5 III is connected to a Windows PC with USB, does it automatically charge the battery ?
 
If it does, then is there a way to disable "battery charge" in FiiO X5 III menus ?
 
Thank you,

I think it is partly due to "Wi-Fi intelligent sleep" feature. You can find it at: Settings -> Wi-Fi -> three dot menu top right hand -> Advanced -> Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep -> set to "Always". Obvious downside, standby battery drain might increase.

Thanks for that. I'll give it a go.
 
I've managed to improve things a bit by increasing the buffering to 20s, but that is annoying on start-up, and I've only found one app so far that I can do that on (TuneIn Radio). That covers almost everything I listen to but it isn't as nice as (e.g.) BBC iPlayer or some of the other station specific apps. Plus waiting for 20s for s stream to start isn't much fun...

FiiO I have discovered a bug with the new firmware. The FiiO Music app refuses to launch and the background service continues to crash if you have the 4x4 widget on your home screen. I tried clearing the cache and resetting the app to no avail. It worked perfectly after removing the widget from the launcher.

You are my lifesaver... Thx

I have been suffering with SD2 unmounting when it feels like it. Bah. Sometimes I have to reboot to be able to remount it.

I upgrade to 1.1.3 and listened for about six hours with my SE846s. Holy crap this thing sounds swell. My My My.

same issue with sd2 unmounting but after a factory reset it seems not to happen anymore.. to be continued

i strongly advice to factory reset in recovery mode after each upgrade, that's the only way i could recover a decent stable X5 every time.

Thats a big bug if we need to do a reset after every update.
They need to find the code that caused this in last two firmwares and revert it.

I unpacked the X5III, updated the firmware directly.

The SD_2 unmounts from time to time

This could be the cause for the spotify offline issues listed earlier

This seems to be working 

 
Thank you so much for the help.

  Hi MinnieOne,
 
1. Could you kindly give us more information of it. 
 
2. Do you mean the feature of Artist Album, if yes, we do not have such function, we will consider it .

​Example: Stoned Immaculate Album - Each song will show up as a unique Album if left as is. I had to uncheck the Compilation tag as well as change the artist field to "The Doors" before it would read as one album. It's not a lot of work, but you lose the information of who the actual artist is.

also fiio music crashes from time to time, I'll try to reproduce the crash.

shuffling with 19000 songs: when you hit next it can take minutes to actually have the next song

upgrade but did you have to delete something ?

I have done many things to try and solve this. (Including deleting this and that directory, reformatting and reloading the brand new SanDisk Ultra card)
I have my fingers crossed that 1.1.3 solves it. I see I am not alone with this issue. SD1 stays no matter what, SD2 unmounts and sometimes requires a reboot to get working properly.
The card is fine. The card is fine. The card is fine. Have I mentioned the card is fine?

After seeing all of the bugs starting to come to light I am glad I have to wait on purchasing a DAP.  Then maybe they will be fixed by the time I have the money to buy.
 
Cheers
