Re: Ipod Nano 3rd Generation General Information
 

Please list all info you can find on this MP3/4 player.
Also- If anyone know how to access/modify the firmware of the "ipod" with free software, please tell me/post it.
Thank You.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a ordinary Chipod Clone. The video they use is made by me, they stole it from youtube. (should ask copyrights, hehehe)

I bought the clone from mp4nation and it was the normal actionchip mp4 player.

My Youtube username is vermaelenprojects and I have more demo videos from gadgets.

Alright, so now im on to F/W info of the Chipod.
Okay, i was ocd and bored, so i kept running extract.bat from s1fwx,
which supposedly doesnt work with v9 firmwares (whats the def of insanity anyways? doing something repeatedly and expecting a different result? huh....), but this time it did.
Here is the output-
---[ info ]----------------------------------
filename = 'dump.bin'
filetype = afi

-end excerpt-

When I plug in my chipod, 2 drives appear- G and H.
I copy all of my music to G, and H isnt formatted.
My guess is that the chip is partitioned, and H is set up in a way that windows doesn't know how to deal with, and contaions the F/W and such. Can anyone confirm/disprove that? Also- does anyone know where to find the code for s1fwx.exe?
Also Also- Update on 2nd largest chip- i believe that it is the processor. As with anything i say, please confirm/disprove if you can- i have minimal knowledge of electronics.

Re: Ipod Nano 3rd Generation General Information
 

Does anyone know wherei could find a decompiler for firmware files? I realize that it is unlikely that there is one, but please list any free decompilers that you know of- btw, I tried boomerang, and it crashed when i tried to decompile something. Also- does anyone know where to find the source code fo s1fwx stuff?

more than likely ANY source code you'd find of his'd be here

http://sourceforge.net/projects/s1mp3/

Re: Ipod Nano 3rd Generation General Information
 

I found a program that can transfer music to a chipod with very little trouble- Mediamonkey
you can download it here-
