Rockbox Development > New Ports
Cowon D2
shotofadds:
A first attempt at a patch for the D2 is at FS#8420 (thanks, saratoga). Once applied, configure should list a new target (33: Cowon D2) and its bootloader build should generate a rockbox.iaudio file suitable for uploading with tcctool. This consists of a simple test program with basic LCD, button and I2C drivers. Happy hacking!
EDIT: changed link to Flyspray.

Hi,
I have some doubts.
please bare with my lack of knowledge.
How to proceed with the patch provided?
I mean how to build? which tool chain? from where?
Also i tried tcctool with my D2. I used a .bin file (2.50) with some theme for testing. Tcctool says application patched successfully. after that i had expected it to boot automatically or something..but nothing happened. Can somebody guide me?

shotofadds:
Regarding tcctool, if it reported that the upload was successful, the .bin should execute automatically. For example, I if I upload the "d2.bin" (or "d2N.bin") from the '1' folder of a firmware download from Cowon, the D2 will boot into that firmware straight away.
(..but for safety, try to make sure the firmware version you upload is the same as the version present on your player)
Also, regarding the patch - it is necessary to apply the bugfix mentioned in comment #3 of the flyspray entry otherwise the compiled image will noot boot the player. I will upload a new patch later today.
EDIT: You're not trying to upload a d2_rs.bin or d2_font.bin, are you? That won't work since those are resource (graphics) files. Tcctool should only be used to upload executable firmware code.

Great, I can't wait until Rockbox is working on this player!
Here's a picture of what the test program displays, for those who can't compile it or don't want to:
Keep up the good work!
