My question is...Why is that there is only two filenames can be found in my firmware which is the "BRECF285.BIN" and "FWIMAGE.FW"..???

AND if I try to load it in a program-"s1res" an error message will appear...
"An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format"
why is that so??

and if there's a firmware just like mine....would you please email it here

if you would mind.......PLZ. :cry: :lol:

Can someone help me?

I've downloaded a Theme from the forum and I'm trying to skin my MP4 using that theme.

So I've extracted my firmware with s1fwx, and then I've browsed the files inside my ui30.res with s1res! That theme would work perfectly!

But there are over 300 images and with s1res I have to import the images one by one!!

Is there a simple method?

Tks!

As far as I know, you have to change them one by one...

I have an mp4. When I connect it to the computer, it only shows the folders VIDEO,AUDIO,GAME,EBOOK and PICTURE. How will I add a theme to it.
