A local discounter offered a MP4-player *[entryx EM850](http://www.entryx.de/deutsch/produkte/mp3player/2gb_mediaplayer_mp3.html)*
|
|
some time ago. The supplied firmware has some severe problems, e.g. the devices powers off while playing without touching it.
|
|
|
|
After some research, I found some thread at [discountfan.de](http://www.discountfan.de/forumneu/read.php?8,161599,162423)
|
|
which mentions that the device is originally built by [YIFANG](http://www.yifangdigital.com/Product/EM850.htm) and is
|
|
OEM'ed as [Meizu M6](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M6_Mini_Player) or [TEAC MP-380](http://www.teac-shop.de/product_info.php/info/p151_MP-380-2GB-Flash-MP3-Player.html).
|
|
|
|
The TEAC firmware is brand new and thus fixes the problems of the entryx version. Since you can't download the firmware
|
|
from the TEAC homepage, you have to get it from [rapidshare.com](http://rapidshare.com/files/49786276/TEM850RB_PCB1.4_002_1.7.17_new.rar.html).
|
|
|
|
All other files you can get directly from YIFANG: On the [download page](http://rapidshare.com/files/49786276/TEM850RB_PCB1.4_002_1.7.17_new.rar.html)
|
|
further down you'll find a [EM850RB driver package](http://www.yifangdigital.com/download/driver/audio/em850rb.rar)
|
|
which also contains the firmware-updater and drivers for the Rock-chip (both contained in the *ConsumerUpdate* inside
|
|
the RAR archive). You have to unpack the ConsumerUpdate and install it.
|
|
|
|
Now do the following:
|
|
|
|
1. unplug the MP4-player from your PC
|
|
1. hold the <kbd>M</kbd> key while plugging it in and hold the <kbd>M</kbd> key for some more seconds
|
|
* the PC should show a new device and ask for drivers
|
|
1. choose manually selection of drivers and point it to the directory where you installed the ConsumerUpdate to
|
|
1. when the drivers are installed, run the `Consumer.exe` (for English language, change the `Consumer.ini` and set
|
|
`UILanguage` to `ENG` instead of `CH_S`)
|
|
1. choose the firmware file (`.rfw`) and click on *Update*
|
|
1. 3 minutes later, everything should be done, exit the Updater
|
|
1. unplug the device and power it on
|
|
* the upgrade should be launched
|
|
|
|
After the upgrade completed, you might have to format the internal storage for the player to recognize it.
|
|
|
|
Some little bonus: After the upgrade, you'll find a Tetris game as well as a FM-Tuner. But the latter one doesn't have
|
|
any reception - maybe they didn't add an antenna, although the IC would support it.
