Try waiting longer and see if it will load Android. I had to wait way longer than I thought it would take.

Before going to the loading screen it displays the following message: failed to mount /mnt/external_sd
Is that fine or it should not display this message?

I remember seeing that message at one point, I wouldn't worry about it for the time being. Let it sit at that loading screen for a really long time and come back to it (like 10 minutes).

Thank you, I will attempt that now and see if it works.

To update to 8.1 you have to use the Android Tool not the Batch tool. The Android tool is in the official 8.1 Oreo or the Beta version of Oreo along with the driver that is needed. There are complete instructions in the download once you open it. There is the Android tool in the download, the Driver needed and instructions. Once it updates to Oreo, it takes around 10 minutes so you just leave the DX150 alone as it updates.

Giving this a try now. Thanks. None of the other methods have worked. Hoping this works.

It gives me the same error that I got through the batch tool. failed to mount /mnt/external_sd, and then the iBasso logo stays for around 5-7 mins. Back to Android 6.0.1
So I am stuck.
Should there be no sd card inside DX150 when I attempt this?

People have success with the SD card method. I don't use it as I use the Batch Tool for 6.1 and earlier and the Android Tool for 8.1. Have you tried a different USB C cable? The DX is off and you are pushing on the play button when you plug it in?

The image file from Dec 26th, 2018 has worked somehow. But when I tried to flash the image file from Feb 4th, 2019. It gives the same error as before mentioned. Not sure what is going on..

Okay, I got the firmware update finally done!
Anyone has used bluetooth headphones with these? Is gapless working in Bluetooth? It works in wired modes but not with Bluetooth headphones. Anyon else faced this problem?

What AMP are you using? I would do a factory reset and take the AMP off and reinsert it. I had a DX not turn back on for a while because it was in my pocket and got too hot. That will cause a shut down due to heat.

 

[leo5111]

amp6 and seems fine now do you think i should re-seat the amp anyway? whats weird is it was warm when i got it out of my backpack but im positive i had turned it off so i dont know what the heck

It only takes a moment to take it off and put it back on.
