How to update the orginal firmware?

(1/1)

ChiefAlex:
Hi, i'm using RockBox for 2 months on my e260, all working well.

Now the situation is, that there is a new firmware version from SanDisk (I have the european player, "E", the new version is: 1.02.18E).
I downloaded it via the Sansa Updater and cut the two files away from the player (i don't want to delete Rockbox and the bootloader).

So: How can I put the new firmware to run it but keep RockBox on it? I think i have to replace the OF.bin in SYSTEM, but how to convert it?
note: I used Sansapatcher to install the bootloader and Rockbox.

PS: I'm german, sry for my bad english.


EDIT::
I think the only way is to use an updated "sansapatcher" which contains the latest firmware. I convertet the new firmware .mi4 with mi4code and replaced the OF.bin in SYSTEM folder, but nothing happended.
Any ideas how make the sansa realize that the OF.bin is a new one? or in what data is the decyrypted orginal firmware saved on the sansa?

ChiefAlex:
Hey, has nobody an idea what to do?! ???

zivan56:
Install the sandisk firmware, run sansapatcher and extract rockbox files to the root of the sansa drive.

ChiefAlex:
ok, i'll try it.

ChiefAlex:
yeah, It worked. Big thx zivan.
Now I'm searching for s.thing new in .18E firmware^^
