Which version of Iriver firmware should I use?
« on: November 27, 2009, 04:57:52 PM »
Hi.

I just found out about RB and am going to put it on my H320. 

The first step is to replace my US firmware with non-US firmware.  When I look at the list of down loads I'm not too sure which I should use.  On the http://rasher.dk/rockbox/iriver-firmwares/ site I see H300(EU)-v128.zip and H300(EU)-v129.zip.  Does it matter which I use?  I assume one should use the latest version (129).  Or does it really matter since RB is going to replace it in the end anyway.

As far as Rockbox is concerned, it doesn't matter at all.

That's what I figured.  Thanks very much for the quick reply.

IIRC, the EU versions past 1.27 have a volume limitation (for the iriver fw obviously) due to some French legislation. For this reason I'd recommend using JP1.29 or similar. As an added bonus the asian versions allow for a wider fm band selection.
This is all just in case you ever want to use the stock firmware  which now that you've discovered Rb you prob won't want/need to ever again!

As you are already aware don't us the US versions.
If you do opt for an asain version the language will default to that region's. To set it to english you will need to (from boot): Long press NAVI > First option (General) > Second option (language) > English.
Or the necessary button presses: Long NAVI > NAVI > down > NAVI > scroll to english > NAVI.
