If this is your way of saying you'd like to help, I don't think its a very good way to do it. Theres no organization here, its just people exchanging ideas and code. Better to dig into the problem and then post once you have something to contribute.
saratoga:
I've removed 5 pages of old posts from this thread that didn't have any useful info in them. Hopefully this should make the volume of information here more manageable for people just joining in.

Humm,
Thanks for the frosty reception, I will go off into my own little bubble and probably duplicate someone elses work.
I will check back when I've got rockbox working. Just wanted to say hi to some of the people that are working on the same project.

Before posting in this forum, search (the button is at the top of the forum screen) for a topic regarding the player you're interested in.
One thread per player. This is not for requesting ports to players. This is for discussion of working on them. If there is no post for your player of interest, you may start a thread. But discussion should then be of what is necessary to make the port happen, not "how great it would be" to have that port. As well, do not post simply to ask how a port is progressing. That will be considered disruptive, as it is unnecessary.

Hi everyone, and especially you newcomers,
I'm glad you joined the fun and have interest in a sansa v2 port. Please be sure to read this entire thread and the multiple pages on the sansa players on the wiki. I know it can't be quite harsh at first, but every captured knowledge is there. You can also send me a private message so we could share jabber (or other IM) IDs.
We already have some work done, both hardware and software. Some of it is documented but some is not too and we intend to improve on that "knowledge capture" part, mostly with the wiki but other suggestions are always welcome.
Our work should be first concentrated on:
* button handling understanding
* original firmware code insertion possibilities
* unbrick techniques (though we have some user unfriendly ideas already, maybe improve on that)
* anything related to the hardware and firmware understanding
If you need help starting up, please contact me I'll share some thoughts and techniques.
Welcome aboard.
As a side note, I said earlier that I got my v2, but I fact I got _2_ fully working clips at hand now so I'm ready to rock (pun intended).

Hello atomikpunk and others.
Could you please put somewhere for download the assembly text of the firmware you're trying to understand? If possible, with the comments to the things that have already been found out. I'm not an expert in assembly language but this would be a good chance for me to learn it and to (maybe) contribute to the porting of RockBox to Sansa v2.
Of course, if doing so is illegal for some reasons do not do it! (but let me know that it's illegal)
Thanks!
