This site was very helpful with getting my two (yes I was conned twice) player to work correctly. One of them as only 1GB the other 2GB after being "unhacked" ( is that a word). Keep up the good work.

so cant we get a bigger samsung at chip and use flux and a heatgun and increase our memory ourself?

Pimped , it is possible to be done. However, you will need to take note of the older chip's pinouts and the pinouts of the new chip to be installed. They need to be the same.

More information on doing this can be found here http://wiki.s1mp3.org/index.php/How_..._a_memory_chip

tadad1, yes mine showed the two different results when I first got it, 4GB (roughly) in the "format" tab, 1GB (roughly) in the "partition" tab. After following the reformat instructions, this all went to 1GB, and yes the chip itself has been verified as 1GB.

Hi,

after having removed the memory hack, my 8GigaByte (7,9GB) turned out to be a 233mb player :shock:

thanks for all the info in this forum.

I checked my player but there's something not right about the instructions on this thread.

I reformatted my player and on the disk utlitly "format" screen I have 233MB showing but on the partition screen it says 1946MB.

So according the instructions in this thread, because the numbers don't match on the 2 screens I have a hack. But Wait:

Someone said to open the player and check the chip. So I did and its a samsung AG. So I checked the serial numbers list posted at the forum,

http://www.mympxplayer.org/samsung-a...rs-vt1692.html

and it says the chip with AG in the serial number is 2GB.

So one person is saying because the numbers don't match in the disk utiltiy programs "format" screen and "partitiion tab" screen, I have a hack. But the guide on this forum with the chip serial numbers says my player has a 2GB chip.

Who's right?
