pls helpme
and say
how can i
change my memory to 8GB?

Hi amir2u,

Unfortunately, you can't. You received a hacked player to show more memory than there truly is. Formatting the player revealed the true size of the memory.

tnx for ur answer
but
i go to a servis center in my town
an he says that
he can solv my problem
but
maybe after a days
the memory back to 417 MB!!!

please help me and say
how he can change my memory capacity
?

He probably 'hacked' it again as well!
If you really want to really be sure, open your player. You'll find find the memory chip and on it has some numbers. Write those down and search for it. PHYSICALLY, your player probably only has a 512MB memory chip, so no matte what you know, it will NEVER hold more than that because that's what it physically has installed in your player.

tnx admin
i cant write english well
pls say to me
how the company can hack the player?
and say why we cant hack the same player?

u say true
my memory is 512
but i want to learn
how the chinis company can change it to 8 gig
but we cant?

It really isn't 8GB. It never was. Hacking the player does not give you that amount of memory. It just looked like it, but it would never have held more than 512mb. Anything over that would have resulted in format errors.
