Rockbox-Y1 v0.5

11 days ago

As a preparation for eventually submitting this port to the upstream Rockbox project a lot had to change under the hood.

For now this means the removal of very specific and rarely used features like the Apps menu. It also means simpler merges of new upstream features. 360p only, there won't be any future 240p releases.

If you have issues, try these steps:

  1. Full flash of the new ROM.
  2. Delete .rockbox on your SD card, this should fix any weird path issues you might encounter (especially shortcuts)
  3. Themes have been updated, see here: https://github.com/rockbox-y1/themes/releases/tag/for_the_gays_and_the_theys
  4. If you want to use any custom themes that worked for older Rockbox-Y1 versions, you will need to change paths in the theme files from /.rockbox to /sdcard/.rockbox
  5. Install font pack: https://download.rockbox.org/release/4.0/rockbox-fonts-4.0.zip

New:

  • Discontinuation of the 240p versions
  • Updated stock app
  • Support for devices that came with stock firmware 3.0.7
  • Black screen bug mitigations
  • Fixes plugins as start screen
  • Fixes audio not pausing on BT disconnect
  • Minor fixes (scrobble upload)
