Thanks to teston for posting the video. Without some of the screen shots I would not have succeeded. I upgraded to 8.1. Took awhile. My computer didn't follow the video exactly. My com port was com5. Had to start the programs from internet explorer. But, once set up, the actual conversion went pretty fast. NOTE: The conversion does wipe out your music list and playlist so backup them up if possible. I copied my music list to a new subfile with internet explorer and then recopied it back to my R6 after the 8.1 conversion. The instructions included with the download files are almost useless and very hard to follow. Hard to tell what is general information and what is actual steps to take to make the conversion work. Hope I don't have to do this again any time soon.

My Qualcomm driver isn’t showing up under Universal Serial Bus controllers. I even tried to run it in windows 7 compatibility mode but still nothing after restart. The USB composite version I have doesn’t have a Qualcomm driver listed when I try to manually install a driver either. I also don’t have a Ports section on Device Manager. Haha I couldn’t even get through the first step...

I also didnt see the qualcomm driver under universal serial bus....i kept trucking though...and the update worked after a few ‘hiccups’.

Just spitballing here, but did you start by downloading and unzipping all three files? I only downloaded the setup file and tried to run it and nothing worked.

That was one of my hiccups. I was trying to run the apps without fully extracting/unzipping. So i extracted all the 3 folders into the same folder and re-tried the steps.

Sorry if this was covered... why do we need to update? My R6 is working just fine.

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?

Still have this problem, hopefully someone can help. :c

When I had problems with the conversion and appeared my R6 wouldn't power up, I then held down the vol up, vol down and power buttons together for like fifteen seconds until the screen flashed and it powered up. After that it powered again as normal. Don't know if that will help.

Interesting not sure if I’m ready to do that though,

For reference, I unzipped all at the same time on my desktop before I installed the driver and the drivers didn’t show up. I think I’m gonna come back in a week and try this, not really trying to brick a 500 dollar dap. I’ve rooted phones before and this is not going as smoothly as I thought it would. Even the FiiO Q5 Bluetooth firmware was easier to update and that was a bunch of zips too.

I agree, this is not that easy...and Im pretty tech savy.

I will try that when I get back from work. Don’t recall if I already tried but will do again.

I would also ask why update? is the new firmware any better running the HiBy music app? after all it's only a shell to run the app in. I don't use the firmware for anything else..... The firmware has been out for a few days now and nothing about whats been added, what the differance is etc etc.

After a little help if possible folks with this update. I have downloaded the 3 files and unzipped them to separate folders on my desktop. Installed the driver and attached my R6 and device manager correctly shows the Qualcomm driver. However when I run the download installer the screen won't allow me to maximize it so as to see all the required sections e.g. software choice and start. I have tried reducing the screen resolution without success. I've also tried on a second computer same problem. Running Windows 10 with all latest updates. Any possible solutions would be gratefully received.

Sorry if i disturb again, i would like to know if Hiby R6 has replay gain. It is important for me.
Thanks in advance.

 

[Rewin]

Already did the update. Took no longer than 15 minutes. Seems that Hiby changed the gain. Plays louder at lower volume settings.

Yes. Hiby Music does have it.
