Hello Everyone

 

I was wondering if anyone have run across a similar issues with their MP3 player. I have the Fiio X1 first generation and it is having all sorts of issue. It doesn't matter whether or not it is FLAC, MP3, etc, it will randomly play a small section of another song while a current song is playing so it sounds like it is some sort of mix tape for a bit. In addition, it will have these small instances of high screech noise sorta like a DJ scratching their disc on a turn table.

I have tried to downloading the firmware update from this following site [http://fiio.me/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=39932&extra=page%3D1]. However when I try the update, it will run for 15% of the progress and then state "the upgrade file is corrupted". I tried doing it with three different version [1.5, 1.6, and 2.0]. Currently I am on the 1.3 firmware. So I was wondering what else I can do? I can't return this because this was a gift about 7 months ago but I never opened it until now.

Weird... well if it is 7 months old it's still covered with its warranty.
Make sure to format your card through the player menu (it formats the card with the correct settings (block size, etc)). Try to update again (the 2.0 firmware is pretty stable). If that doesn't work try the factory reset option.
If you still have issues, try to post your problem on the FiiO X1 thread since the representatives of FiiO can reply to you and guide you to the warranty process if needed.
 
Good luck
