FYI, we had a user with a 1.31beta-equipped Rocker report of the current rockbox bootloader images failed to flash.

I think I've identified why (comparing to the pre-patched image that Milardo linked to), and I've updated the files on download.rockbox.org to be equivalent.

Unfortunately we'll need an untarnished 1.31 Rocker to test this out.

I am new to this manual configuration.  The AGPTEK ROCKER or Benji player is discontinued for some years now just like a lot of the players that have been ported and under development.  AGPTEK created new versions of the Rocker with builtin memory and SD Card port included.  Case and buttons locations very similar but slimmer and soft case and buttons.  They call it the AGPTEK ROCKER S02 version and I purchased it on AMAZON a month ago.  The installer does not recognize the AGPTEK S02 player.   Any Idea how I can get ROCKBOX to work on this AGPTEK S02 Player?

What does daily updates mean, and from where (AGPTEK)?

I really need a MP3 player to give to a person who is blind.  It would be great if this player can be configured for Rockbox.  Thank you for your response.

If the player is not listed on the rockbox web site as supported, then it's not supported.  As for how new ports come about, there's a wiki page covering this:

Hi, that player isn't compatible (yet) with rockbox. I looked for the agptek rocker but it's no longer available anywhere. There are a few players that you can buy new that are rockboxable. Do you have a budget for that? Perhaps you have an old mp3 player that is rockboxable. There are some sony nwz mp3 players that are rockboxable.

It's not possible to install rockbox manually unless you have a supported player. That one isn't supported

I've been waiting to buy an AGPTEK Rocker for a few months, constantly out of stock or takes too long.

I came across an AGPTEK Model M16SB

Pretty nice little device with BT and fair stock firmware.
Have been using it on my daily commute for about 3 months.

It DIED yesterday.

The screen went fuzzy and then 1/2 screen display that was unreadable.
Then then power button stopped working and seems to have failed.

Fortunately it was only $30 at Sprawl Mart, but I'm not impressed with my initial foray in AGPTEK hardware.

This player hasn't  been available on Amazon since early November 2020.
Has anyone heard from Agptek?  Is the Rocker discontinued???

I don't think they make it anymore.. I was about to put my almost new Benjie T6 on ebay and couldn't find anything at all..

I always see if these Chinese companies put out something new that is rockboxable, but I still haven't found anything to replace my Sansa Clip Zip. I'm hoping the new Xudoo X2s  ends up getting some love!

Would the Benjie T1 be a candidate for RockBox? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32821963152.html

Chip: ESS9018 HD Op-amp chip

Not sure if that's just audio or cpu and ram too.

This isn't hte right forum thread for someting like this, but fact this thing uses an external DAC makes it more likely the core SoC is capable of running Rockbox.  But without additional info on the guts (especially the core SoC itself) it's impossible to make further determinations. 

I should also point out that the T1 has long since been discontinued.

Best build version to use?

I am having file system problems with my Rocker. I tried two builds (one late 2021 and one early March 2022). Both result in mildly corrupted file system.
Every time I check the SD card in Windows it finds a lot of lost file fragments. Seems they are related to trying to save the configuration settings (I can see config settings in the beginning of each recovered fragment).

Question1: What would be a safe build version to use with the AGPTEK Rocker?

Question2: Can I replace manually the rockbox version (the install utility does not seem to allow picking a version).
Thanks

...

1. I do not think there are documented known issues with your player regarding SD card corruption so no specific version seems recommended over others. Latest typically is best. Is there any chance you could try another SD card to see if it shows the same problem.

2. Yes, you can download a development build and just extract it on to your SD card overwriting the existing files.
