Fiio X7ii Purist ROM version 1.0.7 JP update with partition mapping update released

 

Fidelizer Mod

 

Last week I received report from one customer who had firmware issues with Fiio X7ii 1.0.7 JP release. It worked fine for others but for some reason it didn’t work well for him so I asked him to dump stock 1.0.7 JP ROM and sent me.

After investigation, I found 1.0.7 JP has different partition mapping so I updated 1.0.7 JP release with new partition mapping from his dumped ROM. Please flash stock 1.0.7 JP first before flashing Purist ROM.

 

-Based on firmware version 1.0.7 JP
-Apollo – Fidelity Edition from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/apollo-music-player-fidelity-edition-t3038629 included
-build.prop tweaks for better video and storage performance and improve battery life
-bundled audio effects removed but keep main engine (Poweramp works now)

iBasso DX200 XMOS Firmware 1.2 DFU update

I purchased my DX200 unit since iBasso came out and I once updated XMOS DFU firmware back the the days. I later discovered recently that there was internal XMOS firmware 1.2 update that can resolve playback glitches but couldn’t find any update online.

It appears you need to contact iBasso for DFU firmware 1.2 for upgrading XMOS chipset. This will resolve playback glitches like pops and clicks between track. To make things easier for older DX200 unit with XMOS firmware 1.0 and 1.1, I’ll host the mirror here with instructions included.

Added testimonial from Michael Sadighpour

Here’s another feedback today. He sent me his impressions from time to time but version 8.2 update makes significant improvements again and again.

Hello, what did you guys do in version 8.2 pro? It took my PC to a whole new level in fidelity. Thank you!

If you’re still using older version of Fidelizer, I hope reading Fidelizer 8 feedback will help you deciding to upgrade for better sound. 🙂
