Many thanks...
 
I am a bit of a noob here................Do I just transfer the .hex file to the root menu of the AK100?
 
Cheers

Same question:  This new firmware is a  .HEX  file while today I have a   AK1000.SYS  file in the "System" folder ! where do I copy this  .HEX file ?  Do I need to erase the "old"  .SYS  file ?

No erasing anything...
Just put it to the root directory of AK100.
Just as installing some normal firware update.

When you eject the AK100, the hex file will start working automatically, as usually
And you will be surprised with the new UI:wink:

Ok, i'd like to confirm - the update works great, the ui is much nicer AND after enabling the gapless THERE IS gapless.
Shame on you iriver!
 
I feel like i won a free ak120 :p (dont think the extra dac really makes THAt much of a diff anyways)

lol
So looks like there are already three people here tried this out:)))
Good to know!
"I feel like i won a free ak120 :p"
Trendin, there are AK100 and AK120, but I think A100 with the "Russian patch" deserves to be named AK110:)))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Shucks! I will have to wait another 2hr 40mins before I can try this new "firmware" because I just started copying 64GB of files to my AK100.
 
Those who have tried it, please share your thoughts here. Thanks.

Installed it and it works indeed... :)
 
But how do you do this : "You also can adjust the cover art display to fit the screen!"
 
thanks
