Is there an easy way to go back to the original system
natebalzer:
I bought a gigabeat F40 on ebay to replace one that was stollen from me last month. The gigabeat I bought has the rock box firm ware on it and I just want it to work like my old one did. How can I get rid of the rock box so my gigabeat works like it did out of the box?
Llorean:
You need the original .DAT file that was replaced with the Rockbox bootloader.
As a suggestion, try out Rockbox for a little while, check out the manual. You may find you like it better with a little experience.
natebalzer:
Is there anyway I can download the original Dat file. I want to use the gigabeat for subscription music like Napster. The Rock box software does not let me do so.
Llorean:
You'd have to search for it at the Gigabeat homepage. Either a firmware update, or a restore utility. It would infringe their copyrights for anyone here to redistribute the firmware files.
Phalangees:
There should be the original firmware in your C:/Program Files/TOSIBA/gigabeat room x.x/#/GBSYSTEM/FWIMG/
if you can't see the GBSYSTEM folder or others make sure that under view you have it so you can see system files.
edit: there's a chance it may not work if the original firmware that was on their gigabeat is different from the firmware you had on your gigabeat. like different versions because they have 3.0 now and not everyone has upgraded so it could just flip out at you.
