Re: The noob thread

Unfortunately it might be a lot to ask.
The reason why is the following:
1. You can't compare firmware on a player by looking at the casing. A lot of the cases are standard generic cases bought by numerous MP3/MP4 manufacturers who then can choose from a few different chip boards and firmware versions to build the MP3 player.
2. Some manufacturers also get the firmware modified as well especially for that type of player and board.
3. There are three main chip board manufacturers, Actions, Sigmatel and Sunplus. All with their own different firmware, functions and versions.
So, taking this into account, you have a slim chance of finding a firmware that has games, a 'cool' theme which will be totally compatible with your player. Some might work, but you might loose some functions or the buttion configurations are wrong (as the firmware has been modified for only a particular type of player).
For starters, if you can get the firmware version and board version of your player, someone might have one similar to yours. You can find the firmware from the dump.bin file or looking in the the "firmware ver" info from your [System] menu.
Hope that helps.
