Finally a tool to backup 9.0.43 Firmware

Last edited by tadad1 on Sun Nov 19, 2006 8:04 am; edited 1 time in total

For those wanting to extract the firmware from their 9.0.43 (possibly 9.0.xx series) players this version of ATJUpload 4.0 Beta seems to do the trick.

I have tested it on 2 different players using 9.0.43 firmware and both dump files have worked without problem. The extracted dump can be used without repairing.

EDIT: "Ramautet" has reported getting a "access error message" when trying to extracting 9.0.48 firmware, and his player reset so use with caution.

DOWNLOAD "This is a Beta version program and as such may still contain bugs so use at your own risk."

Could someone please post a firmware file from an atj2091h mp4 if its possible to extract one using this tool Im trying to recover my dead player

Detailed info
Ipod Fake 1.5" screen
cpu atj2091h
memory Samsung k9lagu8u0m

Player was originally bought from E-bay player was hacked to show 4gb
if I remember correctly the firware version installed was 9.0.98 I have not seen anyone post anything regarding this firmware so I could be wrong original firmware might have been 9.0.48
startup screen had the ocean and palm trees low batt or shutdown
if this sounds like your player please send me a copy of your firmware to brianlightfoot@gmail.com

Sounds like my clone. Which has the 9.0.48 firmware. But as you can read in the main topic, when I tried to extract the firmware, it gave me an error and hard reset the player (no loss of data, though)

I tried again, to see if I could help you, but really there's no way I can extract my firmware with it.

Maybe someone else with the same firmware could have more luck...

Hi,

I finally tested your soft (even if it is BETA Rolling Eyes

) on my Glacier mp4 (9.0.43 )

=> Succed ! Shocked

My player stoped and started again alone at the end of the process. No data loss, This is not really a "hard reset" as write Ramautet because all setings are saved, even time set is still good...

Cool ! Razz

tadad1, do you know now witch buttons to press to upload a saved firmware ?
is there for now a soft to modify startup/and screens or anything else with the 9.0.43 ?
(because currently s1res doesn't work with this firmware)
Thanks.

It works, at least with full 9.0.43 firmwares

Lejigabou, s1res modifies the 1.8 version of the 9.0.43 firmware but seems to have a problem with the 2.0 inch version. I think this may be a limitation on the image sizes that s1res can handle as the smaller images can be changed but it seems to have trouble reading images larger than 160x128.

Ok, s1res works with full 9.0.43 firmwares but only to change Battery icons or such small pictures.

I search something to modify startup/and screens.
Does a certain "Waterly" (or some mane like this) works to do it with 9.0.43 ?

If it do not. Is there any risk to change my firmware for another FULL firmware ?
(I can't stand anymore the UK queen soldier on my startup screen. On the power down screen I have a magician and it is more cool)

I can change every image from my full firmware :S also the start and the end ones

Yes but you must have a player with a display UNDER 2.0inch, right ?
Tadad1 explained that s1res wasn't able to manage correctly picture larger than 160x128. Snif Crying or Very sad

Who know if I can exchange firmware by another FULL firmware without risks ?
Does anybody have a Glacier (2.0inch / 9.0.43 / 2Go+fm) to help me ? Embarassed

yes, you're right, I didn't realized that images over 160x128 couldn't be edited.. ^^

Lejigabou, I thought you had gone to Bed Smile

s1res even has the problem with any full version 2.0 inch firmware that I have loaded to it.

I would not recommend trying to change firmware. I will look around and see what else I can find.
