Updated mine and it went smoothly. Not sure i am a fan of the new UI style. Feels too childish/ popish with its OTT bright poppie colours. Give it a few days and see if my eyes seatle with it

Any news ? My M0 is unusable.

I wouldn't use it unless/until it has a new FW number

Oh, I got bored of waiting and just risked using the file from google drive, hahaha.
Update went smoothly using the black colored theme, but maybe I just had good luck.

Update.bin and firmware notes had different times as last modified, so maybe it's really fixed, IDK.
My PC is using Spanish timezone so actual time may look different on another computer.



Gotta say EQ is pretty sweet, new-ish UI looks nice.

Might be a time zone thing, I'm in EDT.

So 5:44AM ET for me on that .bin file, but the replies here went past 6AM ET. Assuming the support team is ~10 hours ahead of my time zone I'm guessing we won't hear anything for at least a few more hours.

Still holding off only given that there's no way to unbrick the device (yet), don't want to risk it.

I have 2 M0s, both using the white theme. My download time via the google link was 6:23 AM central time 6/28/19. I updated both of mine within 5 minutes of the download and both are operating normally. I've only noticed that the new "LO" display at the top of the screen is only displayed in settings mode and not on the now playing screen (kinda defeats the purpose).

Well...I'm not 100% sure (and I cannot check anymore) but I think I was using the "black" theme, not the white one. I hope there is still some way to chat with the M0.

As far as we know, only units running white theme was affected, at least that's what feedback we got and what we confirmed in testing.

FW3.0 is fixed now? Looking into downloading it right now.
Please confirm.

Moment I posted that comment yesterday, new corrected firmware was already posted, all previous versions already deleted from internet.

30 minutes difference(time of firmware and my post) was there, as whole office was running around and testing updates on all themes, all setting, etc.

That's idea of our designers, they want now playback screen clean of all info. So Status bar is only visible once you are in some of the submenus.


For anybody affected, please contact me in PM.

I sent PM.

@Shanling Frankie - any news or update with regards to audiobook / podcast support?
I am still optimistic........ (and hopeful)

 

[endgame4]

@Shanling thanks for the firmware update. It is great that you still support older devices and that the promised trickle-down effect actually happens.

Any info on the eq implementation? Is it fully customizable/parametric or just 10 fixed bands with customizable dB value?

 

[piratenpanda]

Everything is animated without any benefit to the user. Why does the bluetooth background need to be so distracting? Why does it need the animated circle around the battery while charging. Cluttering the UI just for the sake of having useless animations seems strange to me. Before it looked more professional.

Shanling M0 is ready, bringing custom EQ

If we add in the equalizer the output of the current numerical value for each band, the convenience of tuning will increase by several times.
When adjusting, the setting slider is completely closed with a finger and it is impossible to see whether a change has occurred or not.
Move to a small value in the right direction is now almost impossible.
It is impossible even visually to determine by eye whether the point has shifted down or to the top.
Outputting the current value will make everything much more convenient.

Shanlig, I sent a message. Do you have a software repair solution or not?

I'm liking this 3.0 update!

The main menu definitely feels snappier;part of it is probably the removal of the animation. The quick access menu is a great addition and I'm happy shanling released an adjustable 10 band EQ.

After using it for a bit, I have some issues/suggestions:
-This is subjective, but the bluetooth screen animation looks a little too "extra". I think the charging screen animation is the right amount of animation.

-I also think it would be nice to be able to bring up the quick access menu from any screen. It would be nice to be able to change to bluetooth/change brightness on the music screen instead of having to go back to the main menu to do it. The play/pause/skip and shuffle parts would be redundant but being able to bring it up on any screen would be a QoL improvement.

-Finally, I would like a pre amp to the EQ. Raising any part of the 10 band eq brings noticeable distortion and adjusting by lowering everything else is cumbersome. Also adding a number value to how many db you +/- would be nice.

At the end of the day, I'm very happy that Shanling is still actively pushing updates for the M0! When I bought it I didn't even expect to get software updates so everything new feels like a nice bonus.

There was a debate about this on HeadFi. Apparently for digital EQ the correct way to EQ is to cut the unwanted frequencies and turn up the overall volume.

I can't really comment though as generally I don't use EQ.

What is the point of showing that the player in "line out" mode if you can't see it on the now playing display where the play,pause,next, previous, playback mode and favorites can be seen? You still have to exit that screen to see the status.
