Sansa® Fuze™

[delonh24]

the firmware sucks nothing to help the fuze users.

The last we can do is try our luck with technical support, i'm to not use replay gain but it still not fells like use that fw, because of that bugs is like use beta fw. Actually if i think about it now, they maybe could mess something in replay gain, just because it first added in 26 fw, and btw if they had bad english we could fine some hindi speakers to contact them.

Depending on the bug with the firmware, Replay Gain processing may be imposed without the setting actually being enabled--even without Replay Gain information added to your music. We really need official confirmation of the problem.

@namiSWAN "You will be noticed... " and punished.   Btw, is it a correct English "you will be noticed"? I would think "notified" is more appropriate.

It's hard to say what is going on. I would downgrade if I had a V1 just in case, so I provided a link to that as well.

Country code. 

If you have a "A", it's America. F is france, iirc. Mine is T for Test - has an extra diagnostic menu which includes a really freaky microphone test function :-)

How did you get that? I want too! xD Perhaps changing the "Region" string in the file version.sdk? I've to try it

BTW, my fuze reports F, but version.sdk says "Americas" and internally it's set to Europe/Spanish. Maybe the "F" means Europe?

Basically, just do a manual firmware update - then extract the .bin file from the zip. I found a file called "fuzpA.bin". I renamed that to "fuzpT.bin" and then copied to the root of the my fuze's internal storage. Once installed, head to the settings menu and have a bash at the Diagnostics item. Once running, move through it using the "down" button.

Aside - anyone found a reliable method of getting rid of the slotradio icon? I gather some managed by changing their region, but I have no idea how to do it.

My MediaMonkey ratings were not transferred to the device.  I thought that the ratings bug was fixed!
