Sony NW-A80X/NWZ-81X Port

<< < (3/3)

Tanzbär:
I own a Sony-NWZ-S516, very similar to the A810 and A800 series, but without video function, and I would really like to participate in a port. The bad thing is, I am neither a good programmer nor do I know anything about electronics.
The Source code for many parts of the firmware can be found here:

I know nobody will port Rockbox to this device only for me , but I just wanted to show my personal interest in a port. The Sony players have great sound quality and battery lifetimes, with Rockbox they would beat everything ;).

I just started a port page for the NWZ-A728, which is similar to the A80x, without the bluetooth.  You can head over there http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/WalkmanNwzA728Port, and read up on what I have right now. If you want to send me more information, PCB scans, detailed specs, etc, send me an email @ cybeastfalzar99@yahoo.com.

You should probably begin by taking apart your player and identifying the components.   Thats really the most useful thing.  The rest of the information currently on the wiki is basically irrelevant since it concerns the retail firmware, not the actual hardware.
