so it seems one of the pads on the 3.5mm TRRS jack on my Geekout V2+ has a bad solder joint, if I wiggle the connector it cuts out, if I take a tiny plastic pick and push down on the L- pin on the connector to the pcb, my left channel comes back.
im proficent in micro-soldering, but how do i get the geekout apart without distruction of my chasis? @Larry Ho

if anyone else has taken their geekout apart, please let me know.

We really need a FAQ for this it has been asked so many times lol... You can charge and listen at the same time but the device only operates from the battery and not the external voltage, and it discharges faster than it charges, so it will eventually die off.

but that should run out of juice a lot later than without charging........anyone done the comparison?

Has anybody experienced dropouts from their device? I have found that in certain areas, if I don't have airplane mode enabled, the device will apparently reset itself until it eventually crashes my phone.

Anyone aware if there is a wait time for the go2pro infinity? I know its a new product along with a group buy going on but it seems to be available via the product page.

Not sure, cptnhindsight, if you have read some of the posts in this or the v2 thread.
Guess most of us can´t recommend to buy something from LHL anymore.
Besides the fact that it´s not clear when you´ll receive the device after you paid for it, you should be aware that - in case you´ll have issues with the DAC - their customer support won´t be of any help. They suck big times.

So if I were you - and would really like to get it - then I would look for an used one. But then you have to keep that you won´t have any warranty (since LHL doesn´t offer transferable warranty).
Just my thoughts (but I´m pretty sure I´m not alone with it).

ALO Audio website has (or had?) them for sale there is no infinity for go2pro AFAIK though , it is the $400 standard version and the $1000 UltraNanoFemtoSuperClockorWhatever edition.

But yeah, best to buy LH products with the expectation that should it fail, you are probably SOL- they seem to eventually get around to doing the right thing for the most part, but very slowly, and only if you can even manage to get ahold of them.

This is the one I am talking about. http://marketplace-lhlabs.com/go2pro-infinity/ . Either way I appreciate both of you letting me know about the customer service

The GoPro2 Infinity is available as a group buy but the price is $499 (not $480) and, as others have indicated, service after the sale is what it is.

Don't think that this is still "up-to-date".
If I recall correctly this group buy was announced shortly after the Go2pro was made available. I remember that the chart "of committed buyers" never changed

Just out of curiosity when was it made available?

Don't recall anymore... can't find any "announcement" from LHL in my mails.

If you click the Buy button it then asks you to add it to your cart and if you do it does come up to the payment page so I assume it's still active. It may or may not be a group buy any longer but it still seems active to me.

Yeah, I tested all that out but from what I can tell there don't seem to be many people who actually have the thing. Or if they do there hasn't been much discussion about it. Just makes me nervous.
