Rockbox Ports are now being developed for various digital audio players!
I have a limited window to open a dispute, and will start the process if we can't resolve this problem.
You may have better luck attempting to get a downloadable 1.08b firmware image from Benjie, as it stands to reason that folks with older T6 firmware would want to upgrade.
I'm on same boat than this mate. All in all I would be able to use it as normal player, althought I didn't buy it for that. Also there's people on the AliExpress page who put rockbox on it so we should be able to.
Maybe this is our best option. We could even try to go 1.06 and 1.2 afterwards.
@pizzaThe idea behind the 1.2 firmware is that even if I can not get Rockbox on it, I would still like to have the latest firmware so I can enjoy updated codecs and stuff.

That the firmware files were interchangeable between the units was fortunate, but nothing that was ever guaranteed, and indeed looks like it is longer the case.(Heck, this could have easily been done at AGPtek's request -- after all, it's clear that AGPtek has invested a lot more in firmware improvements, and they understandably want folks to buy AGPtek hardware in order to utilize it..)
It's a shame there's no simple way (ie not requiring disassembly and minor soldering) to dump out the flash contents.
Hello,I just bought à Rocker and would like to experiment with Rockbox.I managed to follow the instructions and used the Docker to generate the upt file and rockbox.zip.However before I do the big jump, it is not quite clear how to revert to the old firmware in case something goes wrong ?All relevant post I found are related to Sansa Clip.Thanks
Thanks a lot.Then I did the update and it updated without problem.The 2 first time boot, I got a message that Rockbox cannot boot. And the third time it worked.So far it seems to work, except that I cannot use the power button to switch if off. It seems that the power button is behaving like a "Go Back" button.So I have to hold it down to force shutdown.Perhaps it is the way Rockbox is behaving ? Anyway I will then go over another topic to ask about Rockbox behavior.
Without someone skilled with 'unupgradable T6' at hand acting up we really don't know why it doesn't want to accept updates. I am even not sure it doesn't accept only Agptek updates or updates in general (Did Benjie ever published update image for T6?). Gaining access to serial console is pretty simple (soldering 3 wires to test points + 3.3V usb-to-serial converter) if they didn't removed support for this. From there it is pretty easy to extract recovery firmware. I can help if someone with 'faulty' T6 is willing to take the risk.

Joe Average here! I just bought the Rocker and am pretty happy with the original software. However, I miss Rockbox (from the Cowon X5 and Sansa Clip+ days). I browsed the forums with regard to the Rocker but am still not 100% sure:- Does Rockbox work on the Rocker already?- Can Joe Average install it already? I'm not a developer but can usually follow power user instructions.- My device came with firmware ver 1.2. Is that a problem (how do I tell if my device is upgradeable)?Any help or pointers would be appreciated!
