Any urgrade solution for Mac users????

Hiby make great products but public relations is not their strong suit! Oreo update for R6 looks like being a PR repeat of the R3 shipping CharlieFox.

@fanoble maybe prioritise this for OTA? I can see you guys burning a heap of goodwill otherwise...

I don’t think there’s a Mac native option. I had to use bootcamp to boot into Windows. Tried VirtualBox first, but it didn’t connect properly.

Looking at the process they are using I don’t think an OTA would have been possible for this update. For whatever reason they are changing the partition mapping on the internal drive. Perhaps this is related to drive encryption on Oreo?

Yes it is

One thing I've noticed, to put it plainly: Neutron Music Player does not get along with the Hiby R6 on Android 8.1. Trying to output high res. audio results in significant playback issues. In the upper right hand corner where audio bitrate is displayed, it seems to be showing 2.8M regardless of the track selected.

Here's a picture of the problem. Note the number in the upper right hand corner (11.2M) vs the sample rate of the file (192K).

Found an old Windows laptop and did the install......Worked first time and looking good. Just got to setup now

Although enabling alexa on amazon music setup causes it to crash....uninstalled and ran again without alexa and its fine

Hi, is the firmware update simple and straightforward?

Reading through previous posts it seems dependent on your technical prowess with computers. For some, easy-others not so much. I'm a "senior" Hiby owner and did it yesterday afternoon. Took a couple of hours-BUT I had to retry a couple of steps. This was mostly due to my difficulty following the steps on the video. Once I completed the steps properly the update itself went rather quickly and smoothly. Getting to that point presented me with a few challenges, though.

I’m worry about my computer technical knowledge, never good in it....Even though I went through several times on the video clip but I still don’t have the confidence to do it...furthermore, I need to borrow a laptop first...lol

Yes very easy.... All I did was extract everything to a folder on the desktop and followed the YouTube post.. Pausing all the time to make sure I was selecting the correct files... Took about 10 minutes start to finish

Hi guys, tried upgrading to 8.1 but after the part where my R6 is supposed to restart itself it just didn't and now it won't turn on. Any suggestions on a fix?
