AGPTEK Rocker
gomezz:
10 seconds may not sound like a lot but as a multi-drop delivery driver I can tell you that all that stop / start dead time adds up!
Pingouin:
Yes, I meant auto resume playback. And I also have auto jump to next folder also, so I'm really only ever doing on/off and not touching anything else on the Fuze+ (thanks for that because the Fuze+ "buttons" are atrocious!).
10 seconds is quite a bit more than I thought, and I don't think that would qualify as an upgrade to my Fuze+, so I'll stick with it while it's working. Besides, I was planning to go for the cheapo Benjie T6 and I hear some people have problems getting Rockbox on it.
Thanks for the replies though!
Gavsgovenko:
Hi! Someone fix problem with always work display (only backlight is off but display still show content)? May be rocker can show black picture on screen when backlight is off?

So, here I come with the rockboxed results:
Note: I had one of those "unupgradable" Benjies
I was able to patch my device with the steps on reply #248, from underst0rm, on page 17. I say it because the thread is not too large and this kind of thing can be lost easily.
As I got my device on 1.2, I started to work on the rockbox version of the update.upt, having zero idea, so I will be describing the steps to the people who like me, never patched experimental images on their devices.
* Get your patched with the bootloader update.upt file somewow. Somehow because you can either browse the internet and get it from the people who already made it, or make one following the steps on this same thread from the github of woodz (iirc).
* Do the same steps which underst0rm listed, extract, edit date, repack, and rename it as update.upt
* Update firmware either from menu or either from Power+Vol Down shortcut, it should work any of these ways.At this time, you can reboot, and you probably will be seeing the bootloader. If you are not you didn't get the patched update.
On this point, we only have the bootloader, I needed to re-unzip the .rockbox folder, so I'm listing it too.
* Get your rockbox zip, I got mine from a link on this very thread, but I guess the right move to do is to get it from the release page
* Download zip, connect your device to the PC and unzip it on the root folder. I mark this words because you actually need to unzip ON IT. It is not enough to unzip wherever and copy it. It won't work. (At least it did not on my particular case).
* Unplug, and reboot. You will see again the bootloader and now you can choose "Rockbox" from the boot screen.
So far it works wonders, the only matters I had issues with were theme related, where I've tried to put custom colours (it have me the option) and I couldn't choose them, because if Up/Down works right, Right/Left works at same time as Ok/Cancel, which made impossible to select the right setting to edit.
I also have issues with Volume buttons outside the playing screen. Which means if I'm on the main menu I can't change the volume.
I will be testing more next days to come and probably will be posting more little issues. Thank you devs for bringing the port to our Benjies :D

The best place to get the rockbox zip for this player is on the dev builds page (https://build.rockbox.org/ - its the first one on the page) the links on this thread are old builds (I had been using one of those for the longest time, which had very small increment volume steps). I just finally upgraded to the latest dev build and am so happy to have more manageable volume control.
