d12nv, I have no idea about coding\programming, z80 assembler\disassemblers and compilers and obviously you do not either otherwise you would have thrown together an app to solve the problem.
Based on the World Population clock there are approximatly 6,605,046,992 people in the world and to the best of my knowledge out of all of them only 2 (1 Chinese, 1 German) have ever written apps for firmware extraction from Action chipset players.
This tells me that either no one really gives a damn or it is a lot harder than most people think.
Both authors have managed to get their apps to work on firmware versions up to 9.0.43, but neither have been able to produce an update that will work on anything above, so I would assume there is a very real stumbling block in the way.
It is the same deal with the firmware, a group of people from different parts of the world have been working together on writing a new universal firmware for almost 2 years and so far they managed to execute a basic C+ "hello world" program and still do not have a complete understanding of the workings of the current firmware. Either they are not very clever or once again it is a very complex and slow process of trial, error and discovery.
I do not know when a new app will be released if ever, but I understand your frustration with wanting to mod your player not to mention all those poor sods with dead players that are slitting their wrists.
