Has anyone tried to disassemble this player? I see two screws at the back side to unscrew from pictures I looked at. I want to disassemble one because I'm planning to change body colours. 16GB only comes with black/pink and I want silver so I may do a body swap if it's easy

I'm partial to the White/Silver for a 16gb myself.

Be careful though - you need Sonic Stage AND Japanese Windows to use the Japanese version of the player. It doesn't work w/English SS.

I've read about Sonic Stage but Japanese windows? Why do I need a Japanese windows though other than for characters?

 

[synaesthetic]

japanese sonicstage doesn't like to install on English Windows.

I already found a workaround for that

Then could you post it as I know of a few who need a little help w/the same issue - PLEASE??????

Install WinRAR
Extract SonicStageInstaller.exe using WinRAR ( There will be 6 files in total, two of which are SetupSS.exe and SetupSS.ini)
Open the SetupSS.ini file, and find supportoslang= Japanese and change it to supportoslang= English
Save
Now you can run the SetupSS.exe

WOW - that's actually very simple. THANKS!!!

With the Service Manual + Open Source bootloader for this device, rockbox is a 100% possibility.
