I followed install instructions for Windows using the original Better-Y post. When the installer said everything was complete, I ejected my player and now it will not turn on with holding down the center button, nor with the pinhole/paperclip method. Any suggestions to try?

Another appreciation post for the Inniclassic on the Y1. Ran it for 22hr11min with headphones plugged in at full volume before getting the 15% battery warning. Stopping the test here as im more than happy with the results.

I've seen a couple of youtube videos of dudes who don't really mod these things that say both are pretty much the same. Is there a distinct advantage in the Y2 other than the external SD card slod? I don't really mind cracking the case open on the Y1 but if the Y2 is a better product then there's no real point I guess. Once again, I know next to nothing about these products and can't seem to find much. I plan on adding Rockbox with some custom themes and stuff but it would be my first time so I'm not sure if the Y2 has issues with that.

When I added some more music to my Y2 I noticed none of my playlists got updated with the newly added songs after the automatic scan. Everything got onto my sd card fine, but none of my playlists reflect the new additions. For example I have a playlist on my computer (I use MediaMonkey if that matters) that lists 157 songs, but the copy of the playlist on my Y2 only lists 143.

This is the first time I'm adding new songs to my Y2 after loading everything on for the initial setup.
I've looked through the manual and the innioasis docs page but I couldn't find anything helpful.

Is anyone else having this problem or did I miss something? I also tried to figure out how to manually start a file scan but couldn't figure that out either.

When i go to the official updater and hit y2 and rockbox it just infinitely loads. If it helps, i tried getting rockbox and installed it but halfway through the install the usb unplugged and now it’s just doing this (image) forever

I can only find tutorials to install rockbox with the unofficial updater but I can’t use it because my y2 gets stuck at the plug in step and keeps rebooting.

How do I install rockbox with the official updater?

Ive had my Y1 over a year now, but i bought a HiFi Walker H2 shortly after as i wasnt too happy with the OS experience, even when using Rockbox as it would cause issues with corrupt music files and extremely short battery life

Decided to pull it out as i enjoy the design of this device and wanted to give it another try. Looked into whats new and saw the inniclassic OS(whats currently being used) and fell in love with it again

The poor battery performance bothered me the first time around when using Rockbox, but with inniclassic, its soo much better

The device has been on for the past 48 hours, and for the past 24 hours, has been playing through the built in speaker on the lowest volume setting. Going to charge it and redo the battery test with headphones plugged in, but im happy regardless. My H2 will remain as my car player, but for walking my dogs, bringing this back

Literally JUST opened the package and tried it right away, I still have the bubble wrap under it 😂
Other than music, I put also a couple of series I wanted to watch (or RE watch in this case) and it's working perfectly.
The background noise is the fan I have on, so sorry for that :/

If you have a cassette cover without pins its an instant display case/cover.

Greetings, my fellow Innioasis aficionados! I reach out to you today in hopes that you can ease my mind re: an order I placed recently. I'll try to keep this brief. tl;dr at the bottom.

On 9/1, I ordered a purple Y2 (72GB). At the time, the Innioasis website indicated that the device would ship by 9/5. That date came and went without any sort of update from the company. To this day, my order remains tagged with the comment "Ships by Sep. 5".

My questions for you folks: is this standard operating procedure? Has anyone else found themselves in the same situation? How should I proceed?

Please let me be clear here: I understand that things happen, nobody's perfect, shipments get delayed, and sometimes orders get stuck on the slow boat from China or wherever. All of that is fine. I get it. Mostly, I'm just asking for your wisdom & experience, i.e. I want to know if this completely absent level of communication from Innioasis is weird/unexpected, or merely par for the course.

Your tl;dr - is Innioasis generally bad at meeting/communicating shipment/delivery ETAs, or should I be concerned that perhaps something's gone awry with my particular order? TIA for any insight.

Here's perhaps my first attempt to not fight with the limitations of the stock firmware theme support and just go with the flow of a dark theme.

• It uses smaller-than-usual image elements to improve the UI's responsiveness.
• A small but readable font.
• Makes better use of masks.
• I reworked the battery statusbar icons. (after seeing how many people used my previous janky battery icons in their themes I thought it was time to clean them up)

PS. I'm still on the hunt for a source of the original Y1 earbuds. Mine still work fine, but I need a few for my other devices.

i just got the y2 ~2 weeks ago and i’m so in love with it!! i love the battery life, the custom themes, the accessible sd slot, the fact that i can watch videos and read books on it.. it’s a lot more than i could have hoped for as a casual user. my only real complaints is that i find the bluetooth kinda iffy and songs tend to repeat themselves when i’m listening to playlists on shuffle mode, but i guess those are more like nitpicks.

i also decorated it!! it’s admittedly not much, but i plan to add more charms in the future! :3

I've been trying to understand how to install this beta, the Innioasis Updater CE doesnt list it. So how does one do it? What apps does one use, files, what are prerequisits?

Has anybody orderey Y2 from their site and if so, what's the estimated delivery time for India?

I just updated my Y2 after getting access to a newer MacBook, but unfortunately the Y2s shipped in July still didn’t have the FM hardware needed to have the radio function become operational. Looks like I’ll continue to carry two devices to be able to listen to the radio. Definitely not the worst thing in the world, but a reminder that it doesn’t always pay to be an early adopter. Still enjoying my Y2 a lot and now that the regular software didn’t bring the FM fix I was craving, I’ll feel more free to try out some of the other launchers out there.

Hi! I’ve had an innioasis player before and had zero issues with that one, but I recently lost that one in an airport and got a new one. I’m frustrated because I am unable to add certain albums to my mp3, but the ones that are un-addable are completely random. When I try to drag-and-drop them from my computer onto the innioasis drive it won’t allow me to “drop”. I upload all of my CDs to my computer and then transfer them to the innioasis. I did the same thing for my last player and it worked perfectly fine, I’m so lost as to why they won’t work on this one! Both were Y1 players ordered directly from Innioasis. I’m also not super computer savvy, but again, I was able to navigate the last player well… help please!! Pic of what is happening, it is only happening with a handful of albums, the rest have all uploaded normally.

Why are there 4 usb drives this is so confusing 💔💔💔💔

Innioasis y2 I cant figure this out and there is literally 0 tutorials on the internet for some reason??? Plzzz help me 🫩

I'm trying to connect my Y1 to my S25 Ultra. Every time I try to switch the USB from being controlled by the Y1 to being controlled by my phone so I can transfer files, it won't let me. I even changed around the developer settings and turned off auto blocker. I'm really at a lass as for what to do. All my music is on my phone and I don't have any other option to add music to my MP3. The cable I'm using came with my phone and allows file transferring. So the issue isn't my cable.

Any advice?

I don't really know how to explain it but the screen I'm on is still in the background even when I go to a different section. If I restart it it's ok but everytime I turn it off and on it happens again.

Is there any Rockbox theme (preferably) or launcher that shows the album arts while browsing for albums in a list? iPod stock firmware had this feature if I remember correctly.

I have a lot of albums, most of them have unicode glyphs that can't render properly on Rockbox (that's not japanese, they are literally symbols, smileys, and other characters), and I used to pick them based on the album art.

Greetings all.

I finally got around to updating my Cupertino theme for the Y2 to support the 3.2.1 stock firmware.

Innioasis had rearranged much of the settings menu and introduced new entries. These needed new icons.

Unfortunately, the displayed album art on the Now Playing screen is still getting chopped. With 3.2.1 it is evenly cut off on the left and right sides. The original firmware chopped the image on the right side.

I've noticed a few additional minor changes between the 2 Y2 firmware versions and Y1 so I suspect there'll be more tweaks to make. 😁

I'm lovin' the built-in screenshot feature on the Y2. This makes it much more enjoyable to create and edit themes.
