Original Dane-Elec resource.bin

parena

I have used a different resource.bin, but then wanted to restore the original. However, there is no dane-elec download for firmware/resources. Does anyone have the original resource.bin for dane-elec players (firmware 1.010)?

No, Dane-Elec has no user replaceable firmware so far. There's no way to roll-back the changes by now.

you will have to wait until the next version from meizu. maybe dane-elec will provide an altered version then.

maybe when 1.011 comes out dane-elec wil build also a new firmware, would be so nice for the ones who wants the 36 ouhers of battery life

Unfortunately, Dane Elec keeps their Firmware away from the buyers of the product. Not very customer friendly but this way they want to block people from installing the original Meizu firmware and voiding the Dane Elec warranty...

#5 - the player tells me to get the latest updates from en.meizu.com...

And I seen a European shop who told people to upgrade to get radio and higher volume.

yep... but it will void the warranty...
its something Dane Elec has to work on...

Sucky camera...

If they tell me that they don't wanna fix it, well then there is the Danish consumer complaints board, and i'am pretty sure they will be willing to take this to court, if they have to --- and then I do believe I would win.

#9 I only changed the background, and that is a thing you can do with out changing firmware.

Job

yep...

The dane elec volume limit in europe is due to regulations in some european countries regarding the max volume of portable music players..
The American Dane Elec and the original Meizu player are not affected by this.
Its purely an artificial limit which can be lifted by changing firmware.

Dane Elec doesn't give service anymore if you do.
The screen in the Meizu settings menu telling you to get your new firmware from Meizu.com is therefor very confusing to users.

The screen is there because technically and software wise the Dane Elec and the original Meizu players are exactly the same with the difference of the volume limit and the blocked radio option. Dane Elecs quick changes to the Meizu firmware probably looked over that screen.

and in a region like Europe where consumer rights are considered to be important a confusing message like the one in the Dane Elec players is asking for troubles with consumer boards and buyerrs complaints
