FiiO has confirmed this isn't meant for the M9: http://www.fiio.me/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=45416&pid=134670&fromuid=87077 I have done a factory reset on my M9, and am in the process of reinstalling MM on it. Will update with whether the play count issue continues or...

Yeah, the Google account is not available. That's why I tried to install the play store and services (see my initial response).

Any ideas on the synching of play counts mentioned above?

Yes, that firmware update installed successfully.

Play Counts On PC: SongX shows 2 plays, most recent 5/20. On FiiO, SongX, which just played, when looking at properties, shows 3 plays, most recent 6/16. I connect via USB cable, and click on FiiO in the tree. It says Scanning and then I look at SongX on PC, and it still shows 2 plays, 5/20. Play S...

Trying to keep all FiiO questions together to help future searching ... Any chance of getting some advice on the apk question above? Also, when I sync the M9 via cable, initiating the sync from my PC, files all sync successfully BUT playcount history does not sync. That is, if I play a song on my M9...

As you may guess, I got all excited here ... The firmware update installed with no issues. But the Play Store still did not appear, and MM still shows the _not found_ message when trying to purchase. I tried to install both the store and Google Play services (https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc...

An update. My FiiO updated a few days ago. Now, when I try to upgrade, I am taking to a different screen--it lists the various add-on purchases and the cost. That's new . Clicking an option leads to a cannot find Google Play Store message, so still can't complete the purchase, but I was wondering if...

@Peke, settings saved, will update with results.

Any update on the upgrade/licensing issue? I have 10 days left on the "trial." There must be a way I can purchase an "unlocked" .apk outside of the Google Store, if that cannot work on the device?

Yeah, this is by wifi.

PM sent.

Also, a fourth question: the M9 won't connect in order to synch if MM is not running, even though I have installed MM as a service. That one may be my misunderstanding of what that does.

Wanted to share my experience with the Fiio M9 (my at-long-last replacement for a beloved 80GB iPod). It works. That's the big thing. I've seen other posts of people struggling with FiiO devices, so I thought this might be useful to some of them. First thing I did was avoid the FiiO music app at all...

In case this hits other folks. Mine also stopped working a few days ago. What resolved it was typing my last.fm username all lower case in the MM settings. No idea why that made the difference, but it worked. Hope it helps someone else.

I never suggested you were wrong, Peke. I know that I spent a lot of time searching for combinations that would get close to what I wanted; this was the closest I got, was just posting in case it helps someone else.

Just for closure, this is what I arrived at that works for me. * I installed LastPod (http://www.lastpod.org/ ). * Created an easy to access shortcut that points to LastPod. * When I play a bunch of stuff on my iPod, before syncing with MM, I run LastPod. * It fetches the info from my iPod and submi...

I need help. I can scrobble things played in MM, no worries, no problems. So, yay. But I listen to a lot of music through my iPod, and I can't figure out how to *both* scrobble the tracks played on my iPod *and* have the play counts in MM update. That is, I can either * Synch with MM, which updates ...
