2.3. Running Rockbox
When you turn the unit on, Rockbox should load.
2.4. Updating Rockbox
Rockbox can be easily updated with Rockbox Utility. You can also update Rockbox
manually – download a Rockbox build as detailed above, and unzip the build to the root
directory of your player as in the manual installation stage. If your unzip program asks
you whether to overwrite files, choose the “Yes to all” option. The new build will be
installed over your current build.
The bootloader only changes rarely, and should not normally need to be updated.
Note:
If you use Rockbox Utility be aware that it cannot detect manually installed
b
components.
2.5. Uninstalling Rockbox
Note:
The Rockbox bootloader allows you to choose between Rockbox and the original
b
firmware. (See section
(page
) for more information.)
2.5.1. Automatic Uninstallation
You can uninstall Rockbox automatically by using Rockbox Utility. If you installed
Rockbox manually you can still use Rockbox Utility for uninstallation but will not be
able to do this selectively.
2.5.2. Manual Uninstallation
If you would like to go back to using the original Samsung software, connect the player
to your computer, and delete the
PP5020.mi4
file and rename
OF.mi4
to
PP5020.mi4
in the
System
directory on your YH-920. As in the installation, it may be necessary to
first put your device into UMS mode.
If you wish to clean up your disk, you may also wish to delete the
.rockbox
directory
and its contents. Turn the Samsung off. Turn the player back on and the original
Samsung software will load.
2.6. Troubleshooting
“File Not Found”
