How to ADD a memory chip???

Hi all, I had bought a fake 4GB "chipod" with only 2GB.

My question is, did somebody add a memory chip to this thing?? because it looks like you can just "plug" a new chip on the board and let it roll.

I had seen a wiki on how to SWAP a chip for a greater capacity, but I couldn't find any memory ADD on.

thanks!

yes would could just solder another memory chip into place.

you would then need to format the player to reconise the new size.

at present i think the firmware only supports upto 4gb so 2 2gb chips should fine
