Hardware / Sandisk Clip Zip 128GB microSD (FAT32) not detected by Rockbox
« Last post by jack on Today at 11:36:43 AM »Rockbox does not detect 128GB SanDisk XC1 card (FAT32) on the SanDisk Clip Zip. However, the card works just fine when booting into original SanDisk OS and when plugged into the computer. Reinstalling Rockbox, intitializing database, and reformatting card does not help.
Anyone with an idea why only Rockbox does not detect the card?

Hardware / Re: Surfans F20 w/ v2.7 firmware: Clarification on state of support?
« Last post by dconrad on Today at 10:09:26 AM »Hi, maybe a dumb question, but will the Aigo Eros firmware work for the Surfans F20? It looks like the Surfans site took down the link to the firmware and I'm at a loss of what to do. I've managed to follow the rest of the instructions here, I'm just stuck on that.
I don't believe it will - but we have a pre-patched firmware for the Surfans here: https://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/surfans/F20-v27-patched.upt

New Ports / Re: AIGO EROS Q / AIGO EROS K / IRULU Surfans F20 / AGPTek H3 / HIFI WALKER H2
« Last post by dconrad on January 26, 2023, 10:18:05 AM »I tried the zip listed on the AIGO Eros Q wiki page within the Native Port area and yes, the Line Out is working on my device with this version. Great!
I'm still trying to make heads and tails of my multimeter so still need time to report a reading. I haven't used one before and the closest memory in the ballpark would be using an oscilloscope and signal generator back in a Physics class many moons ago. But I'm trying to get refreshed and will keep at it.
P.S. - I installed Room EQ Wizard for my distro and this is able to generate test WAV files for different frequencies. So I have my 100 Hz test file at least.
OK playing a 100 Hz sine test file I got a reading of -0.4 mV from the Line Out.
I think that converts to -8 dBV but I would suggest checking that.
Sounds good, I'll update wiki to reflect that we have line out on the new devices now. Thanks so much for testing!
Are you sure you're using the AC Voltage setting on the multimeter? I don't think they typically give a negative reading in that mode (and I don't think a negative rms voltage really makes sense). Also, just to be sure, the file you created is "full scale", or maximum volume? When I did the same thing for my device, I just used Audacity to create a full-scale tone and exported to WAV.
Edit: For reference, I think you'll probably get a voltage reading somewhere around 2 Vrms.

Iriver - Installation/Removal/Flashing / Un- brick or Re- flash of iRiver H3xx devices
« Last post by mr_2022 on January 25, 2023, 08:04:35 PM »Hey guys,
I was very happy to see a new bootloader version (https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=53654.0) for the iRiver H1xx and H3xx. I've successfully upgraded som H120 and H140 devices with µSD Card-Mods just recently.
However, my old H340 ran on some mystic bootloader release, that was shared here http://hendrik.feuerware.com/rockbox.htm. I wanted to give it an update as well. So what I did, was the following:
Because I forgot the important details of the flashing procedures described here (https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IriverFlashing), I just hit the iriver_flash on the version 8 bootloader.iriver file and boom (because I used this arcane and old rockbox version) my player was bricked. Just no way of powering it up, nor charging the battery via DC-plug.
Too bad! It nags me, that I screwed up my H340, for which I just bought a new battery...
So here my question if someone has attempted to reflash any H3xx device? If not I might buy into the descriptions given here https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/H1x0Reflashing and give it a go to reflash (unbrick) my H340 unit... with the new bootloader 8 version.
I still have to figure out what hardware I'd need for it. But I have soldering skills and Arduino/Teensy hardware at hand.
Any suggestions or tips or maybe guidance would be very welcome.
In any case thumbs up for any person who still contributes to rockbox in general and to the iRiver ports and bootloaders in particular.
