Finally discovered the controller app. THANK YOU @ Shanling for making it possible to disable HWA/ LDHC. Just a couple of notes. It was not possible to update the firmware over the air with the app. I tried using phones and tablets but no go and none of the settings would save until the firmware was updated. So I used USB / dfu mode and got it done. Now everything is working perfectly and I am SO HAPPY to be done with the absolutely terrible HWA autoconnect.

Glad you like the controller app.

Only later runs of UP2/4 can be updated over app, for older runs you need to update with computer.

The UP4 soumds great.
A volume level indicator seems necessary at least in the app as probably it can't be implemented in the device now.
One more mistranslation may be corrected in the next version. It shows DISCONNECTED when its actually connected. The menu should read DISCONNECT for necessary disconnection, if required. Screenshot attached

Help regarding update of my UP2 needed here, please...
Its current version is 1.7.3.

I've tried the OTA process with no sucess. The process gets stucked and never finishes.

I've tried through PC, but the 'CSR BlueCore in DFU mode ' never pops up in device manager, so the update process is not started.

What am I suposed to do?


Edit: Got it! It worked after several attempts.

OTA update us available only for UP2 from later runs, for older units you will need to use computer update.

That's disappointing. You should really mention that on the download page.

I see we have included this note in the news segment, but is missing on the download page. Will adjust it.

Such function was discussed before with our software team, but right now we have no update about it.

Any update on this? Would like to use my UP2 primarily in USB mode and this would be neat.

I assume leaving the UP2 plugged in – but turned off – to computer's USB is detrimental to the battery?

Thanks!

I have a UP4, and I found it very easy to learn the wheel presses. Too bad the Mac insists on launching the Apple Music app in response to the play/pause or track-change signals. (Windows 10 and R3 Pro work fine.) One great feature, that not all Bluetooth devices have, is the ability to automatically dis-connect itself from the prior device and connect to the new one you want to use. Some devices make you manually dis-connect first, which if you have several devices can lead to the “what did I last connect this thing to?” game. Reviewers rarely mention this issue.

@Shanling Does either the UP2 or UP4 support bidirectional Bluetooth to be used as a USB soundcard and transmit Bluetooth to and M2X or MW200?

They are both Bluetooth receiver only.
Shanling Q1 can offer bi-directional Bluetooth.

After few weeks of using UP4 via balanced output my right side of BLON BL3 died, I didn't pay much attention and kept using UP4 with my earsonics em10 and the same happened, right side started to play more quietly and got distorted. Fixing this will cost me now hundreds of euros and I was updated that transducers on the right side of ciem must be replaced. Is it coincidence or most likely defective unit ? I'm scared to use UP4 now...

Glad you reported this here, same thing happened with my Etymotic ER2XR and left side starts to get muted/muffled sounding after 30 minutes of usage with my UP2.

Thankfully it’s under warranty but I am not sure if UP2 is the reason behind this.

No, UP2 and UP4 are only receivers. Our MTouch based players(starting with M0 and up) offer bi-directional Bluetooth and can be used as a USB bluetooth transmitter.

Hey, guys. I've been out of the audio hobby for maybe a couple of years now & just starting to come back again.

Anyway, I've been planning on getting a BT receiver sometime in the next couple of weeks. What would be better between the UP4 & the Fiio BTR5 sonicwise?

Thanks!
