Here's what's intended to be the release version of the update that formally incorporates Darwin V2. This will be the same as what gets uploaded to our servers later, unless anyone here finds exceptional issue that we need to correct first.
I just bought my FC6. Is this the latest version of the firmware? Also sorry for troubling you but could i install the update via the hiby app?
Edit :- Its ok i updated to the firmware v1.07 from v1.02 using the DFU tool rather than the flashtool. I got the HDR Mode and the darwin ultra filter.
May i ask what is the improvement with the Darwin Ultra filter? Thank you, would love to mention it on my review
I have a problem with the update 1.07, so far I have been able to install every version without any problems. Now when I press Download in DFU the program shuts down, without any error.

As promised, here's a preview firmware with the Darwin Ultra V2 filters for the FC6.
Changelog vs v1.06
1. Optimized frequency response at 44.1kHz for all filters. (Darwin Ultra filter response is as designed)
2. Darwin ultra is temporarily named "Minimum Phase" but is actually mixed phase ("optimal phase").
3. Other filters are as labelled (fast, slow, normal vs late rolloff) but, not listed is the phase behaviour. V1.06 these were linear phase, now they are minimum phase
4. Final production firmware will feature volume balancing between all OS filters. (Currently Fast Late > Fast Normal > Slow Late > Slow Normal > Darwin Ultra for loudness (only very slightly)
How to install
-unzip the downloaded zip file and follow the instructions of "Instructions for update using Flashtool.docx". (No DFU version available for this preview)

Since the specifications on your website are a little bit ambiguous, could you please clarify which of HiBy FD1, FD3, FC1, FC3 w/o display, FC3 w/ display, FC4 and FC6 do support in-line microphone (4-pole 3.5mm CTIA TRRS) and/or in-line controls?

This is a good question. I'm sorry about the ambiguity, they wanted to emphasize that they would all play music through the TRRS earphones (unless they were OMTP-wired), so the actual 4th pole functionalities didn't quite find its own place to be listed. Sorry about that.
The FC1 and FC3 support microphone input.
The FC4, FC6, FD3 and FD1 support in-line remote control input. (Note, this is different from microphone input. And no, the FC1 and FC3 do not support this)
