i think, it would be great if meizu or some other script writer to make a security ware that will lock down the meizu if stolen...
enter a password when powering up or at the root folder section...

c'mon meizu, hook the meizu users up with this type of ware!!!!

LOL the best you can do is use Resource Editor and edit the 'useful hints' sectionm and change it to name and phone so the robber can return it to you :D

Thanked 0 Times in 0 PostsI think there is nothing in the firmware that DFU tools cannot repair. In other words if you set you password on firmware level I use DFU and put there my own firmware and the problem is solved :D

Thanked 0 Times in 0 PostsI think the main idea is to simply take a bit of responsibility for your belongings, especially if they cost quite a bit.
If your MP3 player is stolen, its stolen. A password on the player won't give an incentive for the robber to return it to you. Just be careful of your belongings, check that everything is with you when leaving public transport, rooms etc. Takes one second to feel it in your pocket.Current Rigs:
8GB iAudio 7 > Not in use
4GB + 32GB iAudio D2 > Alessandro MS-Pro
Sony MZ-NH1 > Headroom Total Bithead > Grado Labs PS-1
2GB Meizu M6 T1 > Not in use
8GB iPod Touch 2G > Shure SE530

Thanked 0 Times in 0 PostsI think the idea was that if the player had a password on it then it wouldn't be useful to the person who stole it. But yea the firmware update would probably wipe it out and even then it isn't the best way to protect your stuff. The best way is yourself which is why my $2K laptop never leaves my sight.

It would be great to have option to lock M6. I loved it on my old iRiver IMP 450 - i´ve just locked the player during startup and nobody couldn´t see or hear my data if I don´t wanna...
