M3 T2.004.3 Official Release

02\11\07: Along with the new M6 firmware a new version T2.003.4 was released today for the M3.

Change Log:

1. Supports version 3.95 - 3.99 encoded .ape files.
2. Corrected problem with time display on MP3 VBR encoded files.
3. Corrected end of MP3 VBR problem.

If you are updating from 2.003 or earlier versions this will format your player during install so be sure to backup any data you want. After the format you will need to copy the resource.bin to the player, disconnect and restart.

As this is the Chinese version it will set language to Chinese as default. To change back to English got Menu-10 Down to Settings -7 down to Language.

This firmware has always the bug of limited 1792 files.

Even, the number of files accepted seems to be 1735 instead of 1792.

Unfortunately stutter (or skipping) is still present but clearly reduced.

Mmm, I was hoping they were using it as a shorthand description for the whole problem.

It's not fixed for me; it may be better - it's difficult to tell so quickly - but I just got a stutter on the first gapless track I played

Edit: it does seem to be much better, although still in evidence. Will test some more.

this firmware still doesn't fix some problems i encountered with 2.003.5....i have a song with 192kbps mp3 cbr, when the song ends, there's are very loud and sharp static noises...i tested the song on my pc, it has no such sounds at the end...
secondly, this firmware still doesn't recognize correctly the bitrate info for mp3 files encoded with mp3 vbr v2, and for these files, when i use the scrubber to scroll through the song, the time of the track keeps decreasing and increasing again and again, and there will be a big gap at the end of the song, about 1 minute....

This problem is called stutter, tapping and a dozen of names. I did an attempt to explain here Trying to explain what the stutter or tapping is and this problem make over 100 members put their signs here PETITION to make stuttering issue meizu's #1 priority.

Not my experience. Upgrade from 2.004.2 --> 2.004.3 was uneventful. Upgrade preserved ALL settings including language (English)!

After resource.bin applied, my custom settings unchanged, I felt compelled to go to settings to confirm the firmware was in fact 2.004.3. It was.

Sweet!
