AGPTEK Rocker

[speachy]

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.

I have the Eclipse 8gb fit clip.


Are you fimiliar with a way to manually make the AGPTEK A02S 16GB MP3 Player work without the Rockbox Utility to install it?

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.
