Very nice and informative article regarding 9038D and 9038S. I specialy liked the part about Tweak9038 app.
I didn't know that new version of 9038D was in the works. I already started thinking of getting it when it will be available and replace my current 9038D.

Is there anyone who uses the 9038D together with smartphone for commuting? Can you recommend a short Y-Splitter plus small, suitable power bank?
(My phone battery is weak)

I use dongles (in general) with a Tempotec V1 pure transport + a separate power bank. That s mainly because I don't use streaming services, and V1 is very small, lightweight, and carries 2 sd cards.

Y Splitter - the one sold by e1da
Powerbank - I'm using a 4500mAh one I had for a while and is "too small" for modern phones now

Has anyone compared the noise resistance between the SG3 and the D model?
I know SE designs usually have better noise floor performance so I'm thinking about buying the new D6k model for sensitive IEMs like multi BAs and the Dunu Zen pro.

Does any one has a good tutorial on how to update the firmware on the G3?

Download the firmware tool from the official link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q_2D_6x0CSiB-wDffqTxGvr8Do1johkH/view
There is everything you need to know in a readme.pdf file.

Hello, I have a 9038D and when I plug my USB C cable to it a little portion of the plug is left out. That makes it disconnect quite often when I have it in my pocket. Anyone else having this same issue?

Welcome to E1DA.
Seriously tho I almost blown my ears off because I reduce the gain from the app.

Anyone know how to get full volume out of the 9038D on Linux (Fedora/Pipewire)? I have used Tweak app to set volume range (-100 / -127). I do have some volume, but not the full volume I get from Android. I have played with ALSA mixer, but volume is already maxed out here.

you can double check your volume with alsamixer and alsactl store command.

!!!! remove your earphone from E1DA and lower the volume on gnome volume bar before the next steps...

1 - run alsamixer command, press F6 and select E1DA from the list
2 - you need to change only the bar on the right side (here on my linux is labeled as PCM 1). The left one is dynamically changed with volume slide of gnome DE.
3 - save your change with sudo alsactl store
4 - check again gnome volume before hit play on your music.

Do you think this is caused by this portion of the plug? It is possible. Yes, I have this issue too - random disconnection in pocket or hand.
I thought it is caused by problem with Multi-channel USB audio interface in Android.

Perfect! That did the trick. Thanks a lot. The 9038D is now on laptop duty full time.

Now I'm almost sure that disconection from android devices is caused by Multi-channel USB interface problem. From UAPP v6.0.9.2 which fixed that, I have not registered any disconnection.

You could also try Neutron Player. Very happy with it.
