FiiO Releases M3 New Firmware FW1.7
The following changes and improvements were made to FW1.7 compared to FW1.5:
1. Added a new UI theme (theme 2);
2. Added options to clear the “favorites”, “Playlist1” and “Playlist2” playlists, and to delete individual songs from each playlist;
3. Added “Screen off button response” option in System Settings, to customize the response to the front 6 buttons when screen is off:

c) Wake+action–turns on the screen at the same time as performing the action of the button;

5. Fixed issue where if the M3 is turned off and then plugged in for charging, it turns itself back on when unplugged;
6. Fixed issues with playing certain mp3 files;
7. Fixed issue where switching from an APE High-compression encoded track to other tracks could cause noise to be emitted;
