(BTW, I'm eagerly awaiting a 1080x1920 version myself, now that i have a Galaxy s4 which appears to run rockbox flawlessly! Also, I wish it were feasible to get the default installer builds to include a proper theme of the appropriate size, it can be a bit of a dog to figure out where to extract the files to on the device itself...)

Thanks for the link. I'd tried the github link on the other page, but it didn't work. Unfortunately, rockbox isn't running flawlessly on my Nexus 7 tablet. It seems to mostly freeze up.

Hi,
I wan to use rockbox on my Samsung S3 android mobile.
Problem is that the default theme is nearly unreadable on my phone (resolution 1280x800).
I tried different resolutions from here: http://rasher.dk/rockbox/android/
But only th low ones helped.
I want to use a theme downloaded from other sites, but how do I install them to test?
Mobile is rooted and custom rom (Slimbean).
Thanks,
Erich

Hi all,
Thanks for the good work!
I've been trying to install Rockbox on an old Samsung Galaxy i7500 (I don't know if I am stupid or naive!).
Well: First time the "sound part" of it all worked fine but the theme was GIGANTIC and could not really use it.
Second time: fixed fonts but now I don't seem to have a theme anymore. Just a blank screen with the title and artist on top and a "bar" that moves with the song in the middle of the screen but.....can't stop song!!
Got the daily build here: http://rasher.dk/rockbox/android/
I've used Rockbox on my ipod 5th gen video for quite a few years now. Just testing it on an (OLD) android phone before deciding if it's worth getting a new one....
If somebody could give me a hint on how to fix/proceed I would certainly be very grateful!
:)
Thanks a lot!!

My smartphone have crazy structure of mount points. I don't have /sdcard/ directory, but /storage/sdcard1/. I can't save playlists and create a database.

Yes. Find your music directory and then "long touch" or "right click" to bring up the context menu (the one for folders). Alternatively, touch the menu icon in the lower right corner
.

.
and then scroll down the "context menu for folders" so you can use the
Start File Browser Here
This works almost well enough, however, it doesn't prevent the back arrow from going all the way to root. Simple solution is: Don't push the back arrow when you're in the files area. Use the context menu
.
.
.
instead.
:D

RockBox for Android works perfectly on the IBM/Lenovo Yoga 10, Yoga 8 tablets.
For reference, this is running Android 4.2 + the MusicFX android music extensions app.
I used Rasher's 800x480 which is the biggest one that also has a theme so it is ready to use.

There was a slight learning curve, but my iRiver H10-8gb (previously 5, but I changed it), also has RockBox, so the only problem I had was setting the Equalizer with a touch screen is a lot like a video game, which I lost a few times. ;) But, everything else works just fine. And it sure does play well!
