This firmware is not from onda if your player play this firmware you do not have a Onda or Onda oem player. You have a copy or fake

Go to www.Onda.cn download the firmware for the VX858 or VX85LE if one of them work you have a Real Onda or a Real Onda Oem player.

Onda players are made by Ecom factory. Onda buy them and add there name and logo to the player. Real Oem VX858 with wolfason sound chip true name from factory EMP2801, then onda sells them unda the onda brand name. If your player was not made by the Ecom factory you have COPY or a FAKE.

I wrote above:

I have a no branded Onda VX858 that works fine with Onda firmware...

I have already installed v00.00.0017 of VX858 and works flawlessly... this player never have show Onda logo so to discover that was an Onda player I do have to take the risk of install v00.00.0011 first.

And YES this player is a copy but NOT a fake as you said. Just let me tell you what chips does this player have inside:

Main Processor: Rockchip 2608A 76704 0726 (Original or exist copies?)
Flash memory: Samsung 731 - K9LAG08UOM (same as before)
BIOS memory: Samsung 722 - K4S641632K (same as before)
Audio Processor: WM8750BG 75AE6HF (Original Wolfson)
Touch panel: JST916T
FM Radio: No idea

Main difference with original Onda
BIOS memory: Samsung instead of Hynix (which is better?)
Touch panel: JST916T instead of FM7843 (JST916T proved to be a good replacement of FM7843).

Are you going to tell me that this player has bad chips inside?
Indeed is a copy but a good copy not a FAKE or CHEAP as you hysterically said. It's simply a copy that works fine with a excellent case and that runs appropriately Onda firmware but it cost lots of bucks less.

You can take Onda logo and shove it wherever you want... this annoying company have closed its BBS due to the thousands of complaints concerning their delay in developing firmware for their products.

Simply Onda is a fake or cheap company Mr Dapman. Probably you have been in Chinese factories, but you haven't learned a bit of how such factories works. For them is easier to put the chips suggested to avoid returning for failures, chips really cost nothing in China. What really worth is the firmware and the support.

Why YZ Digital players will be less than the famous Onda? only because Mr. Dapman say so?

Here is the link of original Onda open for the people to judge manufacture quality Onda VX858 VX858LE VX878 open.

My player sports an excellent sound and a formidable screen image being a copy, I know what I'm talking about. For your information beside of this excellent Onda VX858 emulator, I have a Cowon D2, a Meizu M3, a ATJ2135 player, a Teclast C260 (another excellent emulator) and another Rockchip unbranded. Let me tell you that despite of how good is this player; support of Onda is the worse that anybody can find. Damn cowards who close their BBS (were I am registered as只孤独) because they can answer the requirements of their customers.

Here is a pic of my player open for all to see I'm not bluffing (it can't be read my handwriting in the paper on top. It say "DaremoS shit!!"

***WINNER WINNER WINNER***

You have a Real Oem Player that was probly made by ecom Onda's factory. They are sold buy 100's of seller online by all different names.

Look maybe you did not understand what I'm saying! I did not say nothing about you must have a onda logo for it to be a real onda player. What I said was you if it does not play onda firmware its a fake or cheap copy.

The reason is alot of people that have a player that look like this cannot use VX858 or VX858LE FIRMWARE or it will kill there player.

[dapman]

Oh and stop getting so pissed, every one do not have the same player that you have. You are lucky alot of people are not as lucky as you.

Alot of people may not be as smart as you they may not be able to recover ther player if they have a problem.

Also the reason you would want a Real Oem or Branded product is so you get the support or updates for your product.

Thats like all the people who brought chi-pods 2 years ago off ebay the sellers said that they were iPod Oem Players when people brought them they called Apple to get support then found out that is was a fake product or nock off.

I just think that the sellers need to know what product they have and what they are selling before stating Onda VX858 or Onda VX858 Oem for sale.

Because alot of people could brick there player.

This firmware is not from onda if your player play this firmware you do not have a Onda or Onda oem player. You have a copy or fake

first of all, why dont you read the rest of what I said.....

.....the firmware is upgradeable, but it uses the NON Onda OEM firmware.....

secondly, you sir can stop being "mr know it all". This community is here to help others, not so you can come off as some cocky jerk, so please dont.


many of us know that chinese players are copies of copies of copies etc, etc, etc. trust me, you dont need to "school" anyone, just provide your info in a non "dickhead" way and you will get much further explaining your point than you are now.

[geostar]

a good point well made!

[wo0ho0]

For quality wise, chinese player do produce decent quality.. and due to cheap material and labour, they could mass produce ALOT, so the price is good..

Btw how to distinguish LE and Non-LE. Sorry if it a repeated questions

Easy, a real Onda vx858 has VX858 written on the back and a Ondavx858LE has VX858LE written on the back, have a look at the photo earlier in this thread. :wink:

The Onda VX878 is a different looking player alltogether.
Each of these 3 players have their own type of firmware which you can't swap around.
