Has anyone know how to use ADB with R3? I have an "error: device is still connected" and neither command is working.

ADB (Android Debug Bridge). I doubt it will work, as far as I know the R3 is not an Android device.

Tried the hard reset but it still boots up with the dark screen showing the UI as a nearly invisible green shadow.

To charge i connected the included USB-C cable to my Pc.

The device will not start while plugged in from a cold start. Unplug the device, then press and hold the start button.

I exactly did this with the unplugged R3 and i could see the system rebooting. I can see the menu and also the volume curve going up and down wenn i press the buttons. But the screen stays dark showing everything as a green shadow.

Don't doubt, Android has the same linux core and it does't matter where ADB implemented. ADB works on Shanling M2s player with custom scripts. I just need to know what I'm doing wrong...

Looks like a backlight issue?
I would contact the supplier and maybe support@Hiby via website

Backlight Issue sounds plausible.

I already started making unboxing fotos for a review. I hope there will be stock soon within the EU region. The shops are still waiting for a delivery date.

The first impressions about haptics and optics are very good. Also the size is very well chosen from Hiby. Im really triggered and want to play and listen to the device. I have to be patient even if its hard.

Lets say: At least i have something i can look forward too. If the small toy delivers i may also try the bigger brother.

Another update of the R3-Mojo housing.
I had to learn some more about the Fusion 360 design program to solve the remaining issues, but I think I have a working solution!y
Prototype is being printed now. The 2 halves snap together, fit should finally be just right, and the breakouts are giving good access to all ports.

It turned out well! First working sample!

Hi everyone I have just purchased this device! Would like to check if the scroll bar on the side supports dragging (like click and dragging the scroll bar on a computer) to quickly scroll through a list especially in folder view? Thanks!

It does, but because the screen is small it can be tricky to activate the alphabetic search method on the right-hand side of the list.

I have to report back - this package is great! I knew the sound is great, but in this package it is also great to handle.
Holding it in my left hand the middle finger comfortably reaches the track controls on the right side. A slight change of position lets me use the thumb to operate the R3 touch screen.
When using the Shanling USB cable I can flip the package 90 deg clockwise to reach the Mojo volume controls with my thumb, or when using the Hiby coax cable I can operate the volume rocker on the left side of the R3 with my thumb.
And finally the frame around the Hiby screen provides a guide to rest the finger against when scrolling a list with the index list on the right side of the frame.
Overall this “sound-brick” feels good and weighty in my hand, I would almost say better and more secure than the R3 alone.

It took many hours of design work and many prototypes, but it is really satisfying to hold the result in my hands.
I have a few additional ideas of how to improve the design, but the current design works already better than I hoped for.

Hey. Great work and it is gorgeous. I use the same set up and strip R3+Mojo together with rubber bands. Sometimes I accidentally switch off the Mojo when holding the rip. Any similar experience?

Thanks!
Didn’t happen so far. I checked, and I suppose it would be possible, but i would have to hold it in a specific position and hold it quite tight. Since it lies in my hand very securely I don’t think that would happen easily or frequently.
I realized that the Mojo cutouts really make it more secure and comfortable to hold.

Hint is launching its online store and it also provided firmware download. However, anyone knows which version is it?
