Sony Walkman custom firmware (non-Android)

Any way to top it up manually. Mine is only showing about 500 hours as I “lost” over 2.500 hours last year during the Nayparm mod and board replacement and it bothers my ocd
I don't remotely worry having done several factory reset's. It's not important to me, the music is and the players presentation nor am I likely to sell the WM1A.

Neither am I, it’s a cold dead hands thing, but my ocd is bothered by it

So you're seeing "Midnight v2 (for 1A)" in the Unit Information menu but there's no "CFW" folder in the internal storage of the player?

Then it means that the firmware was not installed.

If you used another custom firmware before, did you use its StockRevert package?

Before installing this new version you have to be on the stock firmware.

i've used the StockRevert package as you described.

What are you seeing in the Unit Information menu right now? Any sign of "Firmware mod by MrWalkman"? If yes, what firmware does it say it's installed?

In this case you need to use the StockRevert package for Project Z first.

You can find previous StockRevert packages for 1A/Z firmware, here.
