Hello,
Thank you for developing RockBox for newer devices like the X3II. I had a Sansa and an AGPTEK before this X3II and it works much more better than the default players.
I've got an issue with the xDuoo X3II. I installed dual boot with XVortex files and instructions. Everything worked fine and today I saw the new updates made by speachy. I downloaded the last one from the dev build, unzipped on the SD card, accessed tools -> Update rockbox, waited to finish and again it worked fine. For what I understand, it does copy the contents of the .rockbox folder into the internal memory. Then I deleted some themes from the SD card, repeated update and then it said that Rockbox was not properly installed because it could not find the memory card. I changed to HIBY player and the result was the same: no SD card, although the SD works fine.
I've tried to reformat the SD card to FAT (it was originally in this format) with no changes, and without format so I could format it from HIBY settings menu. I've tried different SD cards with the same results. It detects the SD card when I plug it into the player but then I can't update or format the SD card, prompting that there is no card. All SDs can be written on using a computer and even when they are inserted in the X3 II via USB. The dual boot still works fine. I've tried to reset to factory settings from the HIBY menu but the problem persists.
Could you please help me? I've run out of options as all of them (reverting to original firmware or reinstalling Rockbox) require an SD support, which is not detected. Do you have any hints?
Thank you for your time.
speachy:
The xvortex builds require using the xvortex bootloader.
The rockbox.org builds require using the rockbox bootloder.
The reason for this is that the xvortex builds are set up to execute out of the onboard flash, whereas the rockbox builds execute off the SD card.
(Over the next couple of days I hope to get a wiki page put together, but paying gigs take priority)

Thank you for the answer.
Strange thing is that although I had XVortex bootloader it still loaded rockbox.org image and worked for a while until I deleted the theme files and updated.
Still, nor HIBY nor rockbox, can't reach the SD card, which now makes X3II unusable as music is played from SD and updates or any other change has to be done through the card. Doesn't look good.
speachy:
There is a force-into-recovery trick that might work. if you have adb access, insert the card with the update.upt file, then run adb shell and then:
echo recovery > /proc/jz/reset/reset
