Who says that the Iriver bootloader isn't supported anymore? Only the devs familiar with it not having time to work on it doesn't mean it's not supported. In fact, we do support installing the bootloader.

Because the Iriver players (except the H10), in contrast to most other players, can be bricked by installing a broken bootloader. Thus those bootloaders require much more and much extensive testing before they can get released. A bricked h100 / h300 can only get revived using special hardware (and by physically opening it up), so even for most developers bricking such a player would be a problem.

And by the way, no software project is ever finished.

lwizard:
ok.
Thanks for you answers!

I have installed the latest firmware built whith charging patch and it seems to work, even if who had installed such firmware reports occasional semibrick during booting which can be resolved by connecting the iriver to PC.

I'll test it for establishing if such bug occours to me, too.
