Opgrade

Well since no matter what I have tried, still, with the latest Lumin apps my I-Pad freezes up on about the 8th song, and no one seems able to help me resolve.

So, I ask this question:
Since the Lumin app 7.1.7 works flawlessly, am I losing out on any audio quality from not using the newer apps? Or are the newer apps just functionality improvements?

Out of curiosity, have you tried to control the Lumin from another device like your mobile phone or a laptop?
Apologies if you have tried that and I"m forgetting.
 
So, I just tried the latest Lumin app 9.0 on my cell phone and it too froze up on the 8th track.

I have tried previously resetting the Lumin X1 via the menu, but I have not tried resetting the Lumin with the pin hole in the back of the unit.

Would that work wklie, Angus, or anyone? Would I lose my extensive song list?

Factory reset will lose the current playqueue, but you may save it first if you enable the Google Drive function in Lumin Android app.

Since no one else has the same problems you have across both iOS and Android for the past several months, I can only conclude the WiFi / network infrastructure is faulty.

Back when I had an Auralic, I did this many times on 3 different devices due to constant issues with playback. Both with Apple and Samsung devices. It drove me knuckin' futz! Turned out that it wasn't an issue with any of the devices or the streamer itself, it was a communication issue caused by low signals on the wi-fi. I ended up getting a mesh network and that issue was instantly solved. Now, the issue rarely happens (maybe once a year). Even when I sold off the Auralic and got the Lumin, both my Qobuz and Tidal accounts (music selections, playlists, preferences, etc.) were...

That said, you may very well have an I-Pad (s) that do not have the memory or whatever to do what is required. You never answered that question.

Please do not think I am trying to confront....it's the opposite. I am trying to help.

treitz3, wklie,​

Thank you for the replies.​

As I have stated I have tried my cell phone which is on completely different carrier service than my home internet and the cell phone also froze up after about 8 songs.

So, to me, there is an issue between the Lumin X1 and the new Lumin apps communicating with each other.
But the older 7.1 app works fine.
That's why I thought of resetting the Lumin by the pin hole in the back.
But I do not want to lose my playlists.

So, after many Lumin app upgrades, my Tablet has continued to freeze up after about 8 songs. The songs continue to play and my remote works fine, it's just that to pick another song or pause, change volume, etc. via the Tablet, the Tablet will not respond. I have to shut down the Lumin app and relaunch it, then again it plays for about 8 songs and freezes up.

Very, very frustrating.

I just went back to the Lumin 7.1.7.apk and it plays fine.

There is definitely something wrong with the latest Lumin app upgrades that I wish Lumin would take seriously and fix.

I just ran across this post of yours. I use a Galaxy Tablet and this has been happening to me for over a year regardless of what update I am using. I just thought it was my tablet going into some type of standby if I'm listening for a period of time without touching the screen. I have to exit out of the app and relaunch it. I stream via Tidal.
 
EJK,
Thank you for your post. I have not been able to solve this problem.
I hope that Lumin can solve this problem.

Can somebody help me with an issue that just popped up. I use a P1, and for some reason my internet radio stations have disappeared. This is happening on my IPad Air2 and IPhone 15, the screen is just blank.
I have the latest firmware I believe on the P1, do I need to reset with the pin hole? I tried powering down with the switch on the back.

You can try uninstalling the app then reinstalling the app.

I just installed it on my IPhone, previously I was only controlling it with my IPad, so I don’t think that is the problem. If Spotify is working, I am getting internet services, so I am not sure why internet radio has vanished?
 
I have solved it, went in to player options and turned internet radio off, then back on again and they reappeared. Not sure why they were off to begin with though.🤷‍♂️
 
EJK,
I am using Quboz. I think that is the problem, once Lumin added the Quboz connect feature it seems the problem started.

I am sure there are many others with the Lumin and the Lumin newer apps not responding properly. Many are not on this forum and are just suffering with the never ending delete and reinstall.

I just tried the Hard Reset method by placing a pin in the back of the Lumin pin hole for reset.
I had high hopes that this would allow the Lumin App 9.1.2 and the Samsung-Lumin player to sync.

But Nope! Still freezes up on the 8th song.

Somebody, Please Help!
