Fidelizer - PerfectDynamics Sound Optimizations 2.0

 

Here’s another feedback today from customer who purchased Advanced ROM for iBasso DX120, very good neutral sound tuned without correction required.

Hello Keetakawee,

I don’t know what kind of magic you did to cook this ROM but I am now a believer. I got home an hour ago and I immediately flashed my rom to the Advanced – Purist ROM I bought for my DX120. I was blown away at how the sound has improved. I’ve been using an Ibasso IT01s with a 2.5mm balanced pure silver cable with my DX120. I thought the sound couldn’t get any better than that but it did, I am now a believer with the work you do. Keep it up! Hopefully more people will try your product. It’s definitely a purchase I am happy with. I can confidently say that me and my DX120 will spend a lot of years together. 🙂

I’m sure Advanced ROM be a great upgrade but still surprised every time I see people taking software upgrade at one third of hardware product. 🙂

Updating Purist ROM links lineup and fix DX120 flashing instructions

 in News

After releasing DX120 FW 2.4, I received reports about failure in flashing and did some intensive investigation about this issue for almost a month now. The problem is new mapping after 2.2 firmwre has issues with recovery flashing.

I tried fix the issue and improve Purist ROM to be more compatible with recovery menu (without error report) but it seems to be impossible. As you notice there’s no longer system update function in Mango OS anymore, flashing from recovery will cause bootloop.

I also tried flashing stock ROM after bootloop triggered but that didn’t fix it if you flash from recovery. The only way to completely fix this problem is to use FactoryTool from DX200 to flash original image again in order to boot properly.

I did some investigation and it appeared that flashing bootloader firmware in recovery is what triggered bootloop and you will also need to flash this file in order to make recovery flashing done without reporting error which is impossible to do even with stock ROM.

So, I updated DX120 flashing instructions to use PC with FactoryTool flashing method from now on. Please flash stock ROM with FactoryTool first to avoid bootloop problems and flash Purist ROM again and your DX120 should work fine with Purist ROM. 🙂

iBasso DX120 Purist ROM version 2.2.42 re-released!

Fidelizer - DX120

 

After DX120 Purist ROM was released for a while, I received one report from free Purist ROM user that he couldn’t flash Purist ROM and get it working. So today I went to my friend’s store and bought a new DX120 DAP to test. I opened it and then flash Purist ROM immediately and it worked fine. 🙂

 

-Based on firmware version 2.2.42
-build.prop tweaks for better video and storage performance and improve battery life
-Audio engine optimized for only audio playback (EQ/Gaplass features work)
-Bundled audio effects removed but keep main engine

 

Download: iBasso DX120 Purist ROM

 

Installation Guide

1. Extract update.img from archive and copy to root directory of micro SD card and put in DX120 slot
2. Open device Settings > Advanced > System Update
3. Wait for device to finish flashing
4. After flashing is completed, you should see Fidelizer Purist ROM boot animation indicating successful update

 

I said re-released because this release contains no changes but I decided to rebuild all packages and tested with real DX120 device again just to be sure. I also did some listening tests and I prefer “Slow” filter with “Original” sound mode personally.

There’s a lot of improvements for Advanced ROM and I also added Enhanced ROM into collection too. Please read Portable Products for more details including Fidelizer Mod project with 3 modification levels. Happy listening. 🙂
