yes, I have satisfied all of these steps. Its seeing the file on some level as its asking me if I want to perform the update which doesn't happen if the update file is not on the drive. But from there it seems to be failing. I appreciate the help though!

Try downloading the firmware update again. Format the SD card as Fat32 and put the unzipped .img file on it. Power up the DX80 and do a factory reset, then put the card in and try updating again from the DX menu

It must be in FAT32 fotmat. NOT exfat which cannot be access during firmware update. I initially had the same issue too.

There is a free software called guiformat which will format to Fat32 regardless of the card size.

I use an 8gb card in FAT32 for all of my updates on any of the daps I own if a card is required.

I dont think any fitted cases have been released yet for the DX80. It might fit some generic ones if thats what you mean.

 

[Dynaway]

guess we all have to wait a while.....

Have you tested that card with h2testw? I do not believe there are any genuine 256gb micro SDXC cards on the market yet.

 My card is SDXC​ PNY Elite 90Mb/s, not micro sd. Trust me I know what I am doing. Thanks for trying to help though.

Ah, that's fine then man, assumed that we were talking about a micro sd seeing as that's what the DX80's internal slots take.

All good. It's amazing what sd to micro card adapter can do.

Just received the dx80 I loved the thing, many glitches in software and definitely audible hiss... Unfortunately

However sound quality, for me a dx90 owner and previous x5 and x5ii, clearly dx80 prevails and provides grainy vocals, clarity and very impressive Soundstage with my se846, I really enjoy this

However I am experiencing hiss even on a black track (null)
Only flaw, I can deal with the freezes in my exfat SD card

Anything at all thst be done about hiss?

Can you please check your DX80 is on low-gain.

Nothing could be done to the hiss. Unless you add an impedance adapter to it.

Stacking with a hiss-free amplifier would eliminate hiss.

 

[NaiveSound]

Oh man, really? This impedance adapter, idk /anything about it, is it portable? Where can I purchase

Tested on low gain, 320 k a, 16 bit, 24/96 it all does it, my dx90 was quiet on the hiss compared to this, I love dx80 sound,, disappointed in hiss... I love give it a week, I don't want to return but...
