typhoon pocket player
 

Today i got a "pocket player" by typhoon.

I wanted to change those horrible firmware images, and followed the instruction here. i extracted the folder and clicked the "extract.bat file". But S1fwx says "can't find device" after scanning, the player is connected to the computer and detected by windows though. what have i done wrong? or isn't it possible with this type of player? please help.

anybody?

punkt, your player is most likely using a Sigmatel chipset, the s1fwx tool will only work on Action chipsets. When you go to Settings on your player what is shown under the Firmware Version setting?

Version: 864.620.407

punkt, OK that is not a Action firmware version so I would say your player has a Sigmatel chipset. Sadly there are no utilities to modify this firmware but there is a firmware extractor for Sigmatel players here

Thanks, but when i try to download the extractor, my antivir guard says this is some kind of virus. I doubt it actually is, because antivir sometimes alerts for no reason, but has anyone tryed it before?
i don't want to destroy my mp3 player.
