Itchee/rizone 32gb 2.6 mp4

[AOCS]

I'm probably not the first to come across this but I'm curious to see what other people make of this.

The first link is to a Chinese discussion group on about how the E100 iriver is using the Actions Semiconductors ATJ2135 chip (the same as the beloved hacked 4GB itchee / rizone) and the second link is to a review of the 4GB E100 on the iriver Japan site apparently saying the same thing.

Is that possible and is it worth attempting to use the E100 firmware (if it's available)?

I used Google Translate to read them, I'm not smart enough to know Chinese or Japanese.

Thanks for your time and patience …. John

It is possible that the River firmware would work. Not that the firmware on them is that bad. If i'm honest, all you need to use is a decent USB cable and it works fine. It does what it says on the tin... right? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Plus i very much doubt installing new firmware would solve any of the issues such as battery problems etc. I've said it already, this is a decent little MP3 player which so much potential ruined by dodgy chinese sellers misleading customers and a poor battery.

This might not be an appropriate question, but this thread seems to be a general reviewing of the product.

so, how is the quality of the screen? I'm in need of a 2.6" color LCD screen, (harder to come by than a 2.5") and the price of this player seems to be less than just buying a screen itself....

thanks

If I'm honest, the screen quality is good

Hi everyone,

Just wondered if you anyone who owns a Rizone player can help another member on how to change the language back to English please? Since you have the same player, hopefully it should be straight forward to just explain how to get to the Language settings to change the language back to English.

I did the same thing, if you navigate your way along to settings (the cog) you can normally scroll down and you will find at the bottom of the settings menu.

Try (without turning it on) taking a quality USB cable and plugging it in. The problem is, they come with really piss poor USB cables. Sadly, I don't know whether you can recover them or not. I know that mine never broke because I am skeptical about any shit from China (why did I buy it then?????) but I used the USB cable that came with my INQ1 (high data throughput lead).

On another note, looks like we have the 1-up version of our particular product:
RIZONE 3.0" 32GB MP3 MP4 Touch Screen OGG RMVB Player on eBay (end time 02-Oct-09 09:27:31 BST)

Who is to bet these are not 4GB hacked frankenflash ? Hope the admin doesn't ban me for being skeptical but come on... We know that 16GB is plausible... 32GB for so cheap (With a touch screen) is just ridiculous. I hope nobody is silly enough to purchase one.

I actually bought a similar version of that Mp3 player, it wasn't hacked, it was sold as a 4GB though. It worked well, other than the random all didn't really play random all. Too bad I leaned into a table a little too much at work and cracked the screen. I might attempt soldering the battery off and seeing if it will fit in my new one, since everyone has said that the battery is crap.

......You can also decide how you want it formated (FAT,FAT32,NTFS).

If

Can anyone explain for me please? What's the best format for music and video on these players? What's the difference between them?

Is anyone still able to use their rizone mp3 player a month or two after purchase, even though the memory is not the alleged size?

Cheers

I tried to dehack this particular model using the Mkdosfs program. It successfully worked until I unplugged the MP3 player and then plugged it back into my computer. My computer still recognizes it as a 32 Gig. It seems that every time I try to add more music or change some music around (Not even filled up to the 3.6 gigs yet) the player won't recognize it. Also I found out that this player will not sort by ID3 tags. If you want to search by artist or album, it isn't going to happen. Any other tricks..

I take back the part about the ID3 tags. So long as you haven't messed it up by taking music off and trying to load other music on, (without formatting in between of course) or by putting over 3.6 gigs, it will sort the ID3 Tags. So I can play one artist at a time if I want.
