Hello,

I'm running version 1.30
Can I go directly to version 1.60, or must I upgrade incrementally through all intermediate versions?

Thanks for you help
I went straight to 1.6...highly doubt it matters, should just be a complete revision in each one with previous updates included

Other than these two changes are there any new updates with the new firmware?

There are always some small secondary tweaks, but no big changes apart from these two listed.

Im always getting an error opening the firmware file. it says "Corrupt or unsupported file format"

This error is on your computer while unziping the file or on M3s?

I have installed the latest FW, but I do not feel any difference in wheel sensitivity settings. Besides, this option is not translated - i see chinese sings :)
By the way does the gain affect battery life? I am curious. It should not be any difference if I set low gain and higher volume or high gain and lower volume, but I am curious.
@Shanling is it possible in HiBy OS to implement battery percentage?

Please what file you downloaded? This google drive link has the corrected version.

Gain should have slight impact on battery life.

Battery percentage would be too inaccurate, so there are no plans to implement it.

Hello I need help, I'm creating a custom theme for my M3s, everything is well but for some reason this bug keeps happening:
20180711_192318.jpg
It seems like it's ghosting on top of each other, happens also if I use the volume wheel, although the actual player will always be on top, it's obviously a glitch.
The ghosting goes away on the next song, or if I lock/unlock the player multiple times.

As for the custom theme, other than changing some hex colors and sizes I didn't exactly delete any line or script from the original files. I've only touched the coordinates for the topbar and nothing else.
I've replaced some images like the battery icons, speaker icons, and the play mode icons. I changed the font of the player and also the font of the clock (switched all the PNG images of numbers into the same font I'm using for the player).

This only happens at the Now Playing screen, everywhere else seems ok.

Can anyone help or tell me what I did wrong?

what's the bitrate when using it as a dac for iOS through bluetooth?
It should be less than 576 kbit/s, and only 20 kHz (based on specs of aptx)

There is a very noticeable difference when using it through bluetooth since the quality seems very low compared to using it as a wired DAC. And when watching videos there is a noticeable delay for the audio and video track.

I'd use spotify on phone so 320kbps would be enough. Just wondering if it can actually provide those on iOS without qualcomm aptx
