rottenzombie:
thanks for your tips laci.
guys this is how far I am right now(couldn't scan so I made a pic but it's good enough):

do I need to open it further and get pics of the whole thing or is this enough? If I have to I'll do it...
some info about the cpu here:

I couldn't find anything about the other components yet, I'll probably have to remove that white sticker too right?
I've never done anything like this but I want to learn how to do it. I'm willing to read a lot too, just need some little help to get started.

Bottom right is an SDRAM chip, left side is a NAND flash memory chip.
You should create a wiki page with this info on it.

thanks saratoga. I did that:

anything more to add right now? I linked the page in the pre-development section. I'll try to open the player a bit more and get more data.

Try and figure out how firmware updates work. Theres a lot of TCC chips that already have rockbox ports. Maybe one of them has already figured out how to update the firmware to hacked binary on your player? If not, try and figure out whats different about this one.

I dont know if this helps but on the Go Gear Vibe /17.Firmware updates work with the Device manager and if you go to were the app installed there should be all the files of the FW in the firmware folder at least with the Vibe /17 I have not tried this but you can tell the device manager to not check for updates and then if you click update I think it pulls the files from that folder and puts them on the device maybe.It seems to work for my player
