Oh that's interesting.  I did not realize that.

Put your new content into the .rockbox folder on your sd card then boot into the Bootloader, choose Tools -> Update Rockbox....  that's it

--- Quote from: johnb on September 07, 2019, 02:28:18 PM --- So essentially "Tools -> Update Rockbox" copies the content of .rockbox to the internal file system?
--- End quote ---
"Update Rockbox" is not one of the options I see under Tools.  It just has:

* ADB start
* ADB stop
* Run Script
* Restart
* ShutdownAm I looking in the wrong place?

How do you save the new time setting? 

The volume up/down buttons, and the next button, let me "set" everything.  But then it says "on to save and off to revert".  But there's only one toggle for on/off; so how do you save the new time?

If you are using a build from rockbox.org, then rockbox runs entirely from the sd card, and it is updated by unzipping the file on the root directory of the sd card.

The only thing we put in the onboard flash is the bootloader.

Which bootloader?  The same one as Vortex shared?

Gunthor:
@Bilgus, you are correct: After errors always the return button or pressing the power button did the trick - so a fail-safe button exists.  :)

@All,
I already deleted the malfunctioning games, apps and demos on my device and would appreciate if future builds include them only when other users (or myself) claim them to function properly. Edit 28.06.2020: Within games I found one nuisance where I'd appreciate patching. I also have a general question concerning key mapping: Usually within games and apps (e.g. jewels.rock, maze.rock, lua_scripts.lua) scrolling up and down is done with the left keys. The right keys (fast forward and fast backward buttons with little triangles pointing up and down) would be more intuitive. Then the game pacbox.rock is using the right keys for up and down, but the volume down key is used for going right! >:( My understanding is that key mapping is hard coded into those games and apps. Nevertheless I wanted to ask this in case someone knows a workaround? This could also assist in getting full functionality for calculator.rock (see further down).

Games
Edit 28.06.2020: After playing around a lot with the settings Highscores get saved and games can be resumed. So this one is solved.;D However, I still don't see any *.save and *.score files in /.rockbox/rocks/games! But this may be because I am used to an old build (SanDisk Sansa Fuze+)...
This issue concerns probably all game applications: Quitting a game displays "Saving game..." for a second or so - then exits as expected. However, reentering games does not offer "Resume Game" (I tested 2048.rock, jewels.rock, blackjack.rock and sgt-flip.rock). The *.save and *.score files cannot be found in /.rockbox/rocks/games! Maybe insufficient access privileges? Kindly see also my notes on disktidy.rock further down.

* doom.rock:
1st message: "Welcome to RockDoom"
2st message: "Missing base WAD"
3nd message: "Plugin error returned"
Then it exits automatically. I copied the files "http://download.rockbox.org/useful/rockdoom.zip" (doomf.wad, rockdoom.wad) to /.rockbox/doom and the menu is displayed when entering doom.rock. However when clicking "Play Game" the device freezes (tried 3 times). Kindly hide this game.

* duke3d.rock:
1st try: "Segmentation fault at 7770e830 address 0x00000004"
2nd try: "Segmentation fault at 7729c830 address 0x00000004"
I copied the files "https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/pub/Main/PluginDuke3D/shareware.zip" (DEFS.CON, DUKE3D.GRP, GAME.CON, USER.CON) to /.rockbox/duke3d and tried again:
It starts... and exits with "Unknown multivoc error code."
I copied the files "https://fwei.tk/pub/dukemidi.zip" (timidity folder with 196 files) to /.rockbox/duke3d and tried again: It starts... and exits again with "Unknown multivoc error code." Kindly hide this game.

* invadrox.rock:
1st try: "Segmentation fault at 771dd988 address 0x77133020"
2nd try: "Segmentation fault at 777a9988 address 0x776ff020"
This is really sad: I loved this one on my SanDisk Sansa Clip Zip :'(
Kindly hide this game.

* pacbox.rock:
Message: "No ROMs in "/.rockbox/pacman/"
Then it exits automatically. After copying my old files in there it works. ;D

* quake.rock:
1st try: "Segmentation fault at 77148244 address 0x00000000"
I copied the file "https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/pub/Main/PluginQuake/quake_sw.zip" (pak0.pak) to /.rockbox/quake/id1 and tried again:
2nd try: "Segmentation fault at 7708b244 address 0x00000000"
Kindly hide this game.

* wolf3d.rock:
1st try:
1st message: "FATAL: NO WOLFENSTEIN 3D DATA Files to be found /.rockbox/wolf3d/vswap."
2nd message: "Segmentation fault at 77b8f830 address 0x00000004"
I copied the files "https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/pub/Main/PluginWolf3D/wolf3d_sw.zip" (nine *.WL1 files) to /.rockbox/wolf3d and tried again:
2nd try:    
1st message: "Segmentation fault at 75471b38 address 0x753bbde4"
Kindly hide this game.

* xworld.rock:
1st message: "Error: Could not open 'MEMLIST.BIN'. Data files missing"
2nd message: "Plugin error returned"
I don't have the files to test this emulator. So will leave this for someone else...
Applications

* calculator.rock:
Navigation (up, down, left, right) OK, However, no button can select the marked key (with neither short nor long presses)! The SanDisk Sansa Fuze+ has a distinct select button (the center of the cross touch pad) and a separate Play/Pause button. The xDuoo X3II does not have an additional select button! If this can't be mended: Kindly hide this app.

* dict.rock:
1st message: "Failed to open Index."
2nd message: "Plugin returned error"
I copied the files "http://www.rockbox.dreamhosters.com/dict.index" (dict.desc, dict.index) to /.rockbox/rocks/apps/ and the app works as expected. :)

* disktidy.rock:
Displays message "missing disktidy.config file" then aborts. However, there is a disktidy.config file (and it is identical to the one on my SanDisk Sansa Fuze+ player), but somehow the app on the xDuoo X3II player cannot find it! Edit 28.06.2020: One more thing - because this may be related to the *.save and *.score file issue above: I copied the jewels.save and jewels.score files from my SanDisk Sansa Fuze+ player to the xDuoo X3II player and the jewels app on the xDuoo X3II player is ignoring those files as if they do not exist! My assumption is that ONE cause is responsible for both problems.

* metronome.rock:
A short press of the power button usually exits the application (for example when using the SanDisk Sansa Fuze+). With the Xduoo x3ii it doesn't. An exit is not possible! A long press of the power button in order to trigger a restart causes an error:
"Segmentation fault at 77296830 address 0x00000004"
Another long press of the power button restarts the OS.
Kindly hide this app.
   
Demos   

* matrix.rock:
Works, but exiting throws errors:
1st try: "Bus error at 00000015 address 0x00000000"
2nd try: "Bus error at 00000081 address 0x00000000"
Another press of the power button restarts the OS.
Kindly hide this Demo.

* oscilloscope.rock:    
1st try: "Segmentation fault at 7757c9d0 address 0x774d2000"
2nd try: "Segmentation fault at 76f909d0 address 0x76ee6000"
First I thought  pressing the pause or speed up buttons causes the crash, but the crash always happens when the drawn line reaches the right hand side. The SanDisk Sansa Fuze+ does not display this segmentation fault error but freezes as well.
Kindly hide this Demo.

* pictureflow.rock:
1st message: "Failed to create folder \.rockbox\rock.data\pict"
2nd message: "Plugin error returned"
I created the folder manually and the following attempt starts w/o this error but displays another message: "No albums found. Please enable database. Press any button to continue" After that it exits with "Plugin error returned" again. I never use the database so I stop testing this one.
