May be a corrupted or faulty file when loading on some devices
That’s all I see.
The factory reset gave nothing
I can understand your frustrations. It took me a hot second to realize that you had to get to the numeric keypad. (When I saw the alphabet keyboard I thought Hey! You could enter a pass phrase. No such luck. )
But this is the standard keyboard. Not sure why they didn’t force it to go to the numeric keyboard. Hopefully Rose will fix this in a future update.
As to PIN code. PIN == Personal Identification Number so not sure why they went w Pincode. (Again simple fix in next release.)
Hello, unfortunately it is not possible to update from 5.9.0.2 to 5.9.0.7. The RS520 cannot download the file. It keeps stopping and restarting. A real disaster. What else can I do? Can you install the update manually via USB stick? It doesn’t work via WiFi or network cable.
Be patient, there will definitely come a time when this update will appear, and if everything works fine for you, there is no point in getting excited about the new software, which is apparently not perfect either, as some users write.

Adding to that, you can easily rest assured with: if it isn’t broken, dont fix it!
For those who complain of a degradation following this Maj.
I think there was corruption or interruption in the debit for some (including me)
So I installed the Early Access version (factory reset) everything is back in order
Then I went back to the official version, new reset and complete installation again.
I found my smile again, everything works perfectly

Unfortunately, my RS520 doesn’t download the early access version either.
So now you have the latest version ending in 0.7? And is everything OK with the sound? What Rose device do you have?
If you have a version ending in .02, why download an even earlier one? Both .02 and .05 were fine, but some people complained about the .07 ending.
Rs130
It is degraded with the update, I tested it 2 days before switching to early access
The sound came back perfect
After installing 5.9.07 again, the sound is such that I like it on the rs130

It’s strange, but it’s nice that after going back to the previous version and reinstalling the latest version, you like the sound, that’s the most important thing.
OS 5.9.0.2 / Rose RS520
I can’t update to 5.9.0.7
I understand that, but there’s no point in getting excited if everything is fine with you on 02.
Yes, you are absolutely right. Then I probably have to wait, or the device is defective because no update works at all, neither via WiFi nor via network cable.

In my opinion, it’s simply not available for you yet. It will definitely be available soon, don’t worry, you just have to wait. It doesn’t matter if you’re using Wi-Fi or cable, it’s not detected by your device yet.
I also emailed HiFi Rose’s website support, and according to them, they haven’t made any changes to the audio since the last update and are asking me to configure the filters. I feel like they’re making fun of me. In my particular case, as I mentioned earlier, I did the software update, and my RS151 now produces crappy audio.
I had an RS250A and always used the same filter, and currently, I have the same filter configured on the RS151 - I never stopped using this filter setting.
I highly doubt that they are making fun of you. I saw on another thread that they are offering to send out the previous system software upon request.
I went back to the previous version and it was a complete disaster! The RS151 wouldn’t recognize my external USB drive, and it didn’t give me the option to turn off the unit; the startup screen flickered, and I had a hard time shutting it down. This is actually the first time I’ve had so many problems. I used an RS250A for a long time; I’d run it every time an update came out, and I never had a problem. Now, with a device that’s supposedly superior to the RS151 and has a better DAC chip, the audio quality changed after the first software update, and it’s absolutely crap.
Here we go again, another person having problems after updating! HiFi Rose is going to have to release a new version of the software to fix all the issues we’re having, especially with the audio quality.

I don’t know if you’ve seen Gillesbonatt’s post about reverting to a previous firmware version, then reverting to the latest one, and his sound is the same as before the latest update. It might be worth repeating the process again to revert to a previous version and then installing the latest one. Maybe something will click and you’ll have better sound.
I don’t understand why some people have worse sound like you, while others don’t hear any sound degradation. So far, no one has called my distributor or the stores in my country where Rose devices are sold with complaints about sound degradation.
The filter you’re using, Rose believes, is the kind of filter you should apply at the very beginning of your listening session, as it ensures a balanced sound. And you can always change it to a different one later—it’s a matter of preference.
