Which firmware for Zipy Panda TR?

[lg]

I finally found it!!! It's called [google]MP2007D[/google].

Here it is (the images and specifications are EXACTLY like mine)

* http://www.szimp3.com/product_show.a...ssName=MP2007D
* http://www.szimp3.com/product_show.asp?id=139 (same page, but simpler url)
* http://morestar.manufacturer.globals...MP3-Player.htm
* http://morestar.manufacturer.globals...MP3-Player.htm (note the minimal difference in these two urls -- the content is also almost the same -- I'd say that was a duplication of content due to bad organization of the site)


the images, just to illustrate the topic


Note the cover for the Micro SD on the side. I couldn't find out how to put the cover back, it seems to require a special tool to place the handles as they were before, otherwise it won't fit. I don't see what's the point, but...



See the two screws I mentioned before? oh, and btw, it looks a LOT less cheap than that :P it's blacker and the screen is clean and reflective... pretty fashionable, actually.

Just one more image... This one has the brand in it:

Boa noite,

estava a pensar em adquirir este modelo especialmente pelo emissor FM para uso no automóvel.
O que achas do seu funcionamento ?
E a bateria recarregavel duras as 6 horas mencionadas ?
Obrigado pela atenção.

epá eu sinceramente não experimentei muito. Devolvi-o após os 15 dias, pois a função de apagar ficheiros (que era a principal funcionalidade que eu queria) funcionava pessimamente: eu tinha que andar por vários menus para apagar a música que eu estivesse a ouvir (no Creative Zen Nano eram so 2 cliques) e a musica nem sequer recomeçava sozinha na faixa seguinte!

Ou seja, não te posso dizer se o emissor FM funciona bem, mas em geral aquilo pareceu-me razoavelmente bom (a nível de hardware. o software era um bocado mau nalguns aspectos como já disse).

A bateria, não experimentei para ter a certeza da duração, não posso te informar sobre o assunto, sorry.

Mas olha, recomendo-te que compres o modelo noutra marca que não a zipy. Eles não têm modelos de 2 e 4 gigas, e nem sequer sabiam que o player tinha um slot micro SD!! E o ecrã, que na caixa dizia ser Black Line (OLED, ou seja preto com letras iluminadas) afinal era o modelo LED normal. Existe o modelo OLED, mas provavelmente é um pouco mais caro (embora compense tanto em visibilidade como em consumo de energia). Se encontrares à venda noutro lado, avisa-me que eu compro também!

Sorry for the absence.

I am into programming, but i definitely don't know enough to hack a firmware. Dancemammal should be able to help you with it.

I said it isn't worth the effort coz new players come up every day, and having a high quality player with a nice and decently sized color screen, with theme support and all the goodies, i kinda forgot about the USB stick thingies we all started with.

Hey uN1Qu3, welcome back!

Too bad Dancemammal didn't respond so far. Do u have any Idea how I can contact him? I sent him a message in the forum and to his email... Anyway I returned the player to the store but I'll try to buy another one from the same manufacturer (MoreStar) since the guys at Zipy apparently only have that cheaper model with only 1GB of space and a LED screen. If I find another brand that sends MoreStar players, I might buy another MP2007D (2 or 4GB, OLED screen), and try to hack it. It might be hard but it's not impossible surely I really want a small player for my mp3's, I don't need a full color screen, etc, so I'll keep looking at the usb stick thingies

btw, a watch-like mp3 player would be cool, something like a Zen Stone with a bracelet :P what do u think?
