Thanks, I'm guessing it has a low memory SoC that is unsuitable for RockBox then.

It isn't a polished port though with some quirks - the worst being the keymappings. For example, return to previous menu is sometimes mapped as 'up' other times as 'left' and the 'volume' buttons are used for somethings.  Using the text entering dialog is weird 'up' maps to down row and vice versa.

Then I will need to take a look at the code when I get my player.

FYI, I finally uploaded a current build of the AGPTek Rocker bootloader and a binary patch that will update the stock firmware image.

It should work on all Rocker and T6 variants. 

See the installation instructions here:

darkcity:
Thanks, some questions:

What changes does this bootloader bring? Where can I find the bspatch utility? Should I use rocker.zip or ROCKER-20171101-patched.upt ?

There are no functional changes that I'm aware of from earlier builds; this is just built from a known source and there is a simpler installation method available (ie bspatch)   The other advantage to this newer version is that the patched OF image will install successfully over all known stock Rocker/T6 firmwares.

The "-patched.upt" has been already patched with the bootloader; it's being provided as a convenience until rbutil is able to fetch and patch the stock firmware image automagically.

The 'rocker.zip' file will be used by rbutil, though it is also useful for folks wanting to manually fetch and patch the firmware images (using bspatch).

bsdiff/bspatch can be found as a package in most linux distros; I believe there are also windows binaries to be had with a simple google search.
