(Solved) Patched firmware bin for Fuze 2.03.31A
« on: August 27, 2010, 05:11:43 PM »
Okay I have been using RB on a E260 and i love it.  I have gotten a newer 8GB Fuze v2.03.31, I tried to get RB installed but wants the OF bin file.  I have found one patched OF at megauploads.  So do any patched firmware bin work or do i have to find OF specific bin file for my version?  Or do I still have to downgrade to .26?

Assuming you're using rockbox utility, a patched bin isn't going to work, since rockbox utility is the bin patcher.  Patching a bad bin will brick your player, so I probably wouldn't use one you find on some random website anyway.  Instead you should probably just download the one linked in the manual or else get a version of the OF you like from the sandisk website.

Okay i think i got it.  I went to manual and clicked the link, i figured out i had to get the all regions firmware to get the bin in the zip.  Now I just need to tell RB utility where the bin is and then am I good?  It is a newer firmware that i got .33 is that all right?  Thank you for your help.

It should be alright.

RB Utility has a list of md5 checksums so it should refuse any unkwown firmware.

You can edit your first post and then change the subject, for example just add [SOLVED]

If I remember right, Rockbox can only be run on the original firmware for the device right, or will it work with like the latest?

Doesn't matter which version.
