Anyone encounter this? I can't boot up and it's "trying" to charge the device?
The icon appears and shows that it's flat ( blinking with the lightning sign )

Is there a way to hard reboot/reset and force charging?

Try a new cable.

Is the dap completely dead? If so, with Android devices it will take awhile once charging to be able to boot up. You say there''s a charge icon showing (blinking w/ lightning bolt) so it must be charging from a 0% state. Also, a long press on the Power button will be required for it to boot. I mention this only because I don't know if this is your first time with the XDP.

I've been using for more than a year. It started off with sudden shutdown, then I use the battery calibrater. After doing that, battery shutdown still occurs.
Yesterday I can't bootup, charged it for a night. Still the same. Icon = battery flat, didn't see the charging animation. Is it dead?

 

[chef8489]

What battery calibrate? Have you tried a new cable? Cables fail often and

Ah, that''s better details. Are you charging from an AC outlet or via computer USB? Try the opposite of whichever. It could be cable related as Chef suggests.

Changed to another cable. Tried both charging from an iPhone wall charger and also from laptop after changing to another USB cable. No go.
Not sure if there's anyway to hard reset or something. Any button pressing sequence to jump start it?

Thanks

No way to hard reset without it being charged at least a little. Only way to jump start is holding down the power button. All others require quite a bit of a charge.

Seeing these for ~$230 now, would this be a good starter DAP for a nephew who is getting into head-fi and likes Android, or would a Dragonfly with his S7 be a better choice?

In my opinion I prefer the stand alone player as it saves battery of the phone and music is not interrupted with texts and notifications or calls plus you can have more storage on the player than on the phone.

Hi, any updates about does third party app using ESS DAC?

 

[snip3r77]

Thanks for your help guys.

I went to a phone repair shop since it's out of warranty and they manage to fix it. Seems like the problem is the charging port

I would also like to know that, as I'm using Neutron on Android based players (only this got all funcionality I need).
If still not, how does it sound anyway in comparison to Fiio X5iii?

I'm interested in one of these, but it will mainly be for use with Tidal offline. Could anyone please tell me whether the early issues regarding offline Tidal playback from the memory cards has been resolved?

Also, how's Tidal MQA and is the volume level good now it's been unlocked on Euro models?

Thanks!

 

[3dit0r]

never had any issue with songs dropping so far on offline mode. I started using Tidal 4 months ago.

That's great to hear as offline Tidal is how I'll be mainly using this dap. Which memory cards are you using, please?
