Default Re: 146 eBay traders reported as selling hacked players.

Greetings All,

I have found this site very useful. Thanks all.

I have received a hacked player from smile_plus168 also. I won a 2GB player and recieved a hacked player. I opened it and inspected the memory chip. It is Samsung K9L8G08U0A. Samsung spec says this is an 8 Gigabit (=1 Gigabyte) chip.

It had all the classic sysmptoms. Once real memory limit reached, file corruption, errors etc.

The player reported to windows that it had 2Gb. A sticker on the back shows 2GB. I low level formated it as per the hack removal instructions on this site and now it shows 1Gb.

It is now working correctly, thanks to this site.

The seller blames his/her supplier and is very polite but ultimately does not want to do anything about it.

regards,
