The change of firmware is possible on the meizu miniplayer distributed by Dane-Elec.
The change of firmware allows:
- To unsling volume (limited to 33 because of the European directives)
- To add radio operator FM (and the recording in mp3 of the radio)
Attention however this update is based on an official firmware of English meizu. The menus will be thus in English. There yet to date does not exist of French version of the firmware to use.
Attention, the change of firmware generates a loss of the warranty.
Very updated Avante: it is necessary to check N° of series
The SP after M6 specifies that you have a version SP of frimware (the other version is the TP, which should not REALLY be used)
Procedure:
- To light the reader
- To connect with the PC with the cord usb
- To copy the files of the firmware to the root of the reader.
- To disconnect properly the reader (stopping of peripheral USB) -
To extinguish the reader
- To relight the reader a text “upgrading system” appears. (attention it can be necessary of étiendre and to relight twice)
not to hesitate to read the supports available over the site dane elec before this handling.

More Accessories: PT850 earphones and Kickstand
here two accessories for the meizu
if wish to order accessories, this site is for the moment the only one with my connaisance (with share ebay) which markets accessories for your meizu.
Dane elec should deal with filling this gap in France but they are occupied probably too much by the launching of the meizu for the moment.

Warning bound for the do-it-yourselfers
As I had already indicated, there are two versions of the meizu.
A version SP and a version TP.
The version marketed by Dane Elec in this moment is version SP. I specify in this moment bus Dane Elec does not exclude to market version TP.
This detail with its importance bus if you wish to use your Meizu by Dane Elec with FM, you will have to install a firmware coming from Meizu.
It is necessary to pay attention to installing well the firmware for version SP if not you will be entitled to the syndrome of the white screen.
Moreover, it is not possible to return in arrear to recover the French firmware of Dane elec.
the version of the firmware T is for meizu TP (for toshiba) and the S1 version is for the SP (Samsung). This English version is not available for the French moment.

FM on European Meizu Players?
It's possible?!!!
It would seem that the radio is nevertheless present on Meizu made in Dane Elec after a upgrade with a foreign firmware (approximately original the Meizu firmware).
Indeed, a user on the forum of generationmp3 which found Meizu Dane Elec affirms that radio walk with the firmware dispo on the site of Meizu.
What wants to say that the limitation is simply software and not material as Dane Elec claimed it.

Answers to some Questions
Hello with all,
You will find below, some answers to the questions put about this blog.
Above all, thank you with my interlocutress with the centre the company Dane Elec.
1) On which date the meizu miniplayer will be T it marketed?
It will be marketed in France in mid-December 2006 and will be in the store at worst the 20/12/2006.
2) Which are the signs which distribute the meizu initially?
“Crossroads
Internet sites
macway
imac wtore
it cannot pre-be ordered on the site imac wstore for the moment contrary with macway.
I add also material Net.
“it is advised to order a 2go or 4go initially bus dane elec received a large order in 1go and the procurement lead time will be longer for this version.”
The pre-order on Internet is also advised if one wishes to have it under the fir tree.
3) Chipset toshiva or Samsung (version tp or sp)
for the moment, it is about chipset toshiba but dane elec works with the two suppliers.
Attention, the comparative one on the meizu sp or tp which is reproduced on this site will probably not be valid insofar as it is about the meizu by dane elec. It is Dane Elec which assembles the components electronic and not Meizu a priori.
4) FM Or No FM?
No FM in Europe because of a probléme of tax.
There will be no possibilities of releasing insofar as there is no receptor FM.
5) The company Dane Elec T it goes marketed accessories?
Yes, from here a few times
I éspére to have answered some of the questions which arose concerning Meizu.

I éspére to have answered some of the questions which arose concerning Meizu.
Meizu is popular.
In a preceding post, I criticized the Internet sites which announced dates of availability on the meizu miniplayer at the end of November 2006 then they deferred to semi December.
In a phone call to dane elec, I make my point:
it would seem that the meizu is victim of sound succés: it was delivered in many great surfaces but the out-of-stock condition is total.
next the reappro is scheduled for semi December.
conclusion: if you want a meizu for Christmas, better is worth to give a phone call to your store.
dane elec works much with crossroads, it is thus quasi certain that it available will be auprés of this sign.
PS: if you succeeded in finding a meizu miniplayer, thank you to leave a small comment while indicating in which ou/et city in which sign.
in advance thank you

FM or no FM?
that is the question.
The meizu miniplayer which will leave to Europe will be able you it to make it possible to listen to his station of preferred radio.
Nothing is less on for the moment. A blow it is yes, a blow it is not.
Vigilance thus if you count absolutely on this function for your meizu.
If it is not, this absence will be T it due to an absence of receiver on the meizu or to a version of the firmware which can be modified later on.

Small Test of Meizu
realized by a private individual.
the advantage of this small: not too long, nor too technique
I take again Ci aprés the conclusion of this test which you will find in his totality with the following address:
http://christophe.schmitt.free.fr/dotclear/index.php?2006/10/29/1259-test-du-meizu-miniplayer
In conclusionAprès to have spent several weeks in company of this small white walkman very sympathetic nerve, I learned how to demolish me (a little) of my iPod 5G black. Even if Miniplayer plays rather in the court of the iPod Nano, it has more than one turn in its bag and exceeds even this last on multiple points, would be this only on the video functions absent from Nano. Competition should take some lessons on ergonomics of this walkman and particularly on the level of its interface. This first model of the Miniplayer range is really a success and I can only recommend the purchase of this one. Meizu Miniplayer 2 Go
One likes the design navigation the size and the quality of the screen the price
Not terrible No Mac version of the software of video conversion sound basic Step in the diaporamas

Meizu Number One in China
Apple with its iPod has all the sorrows of the world to be essential in China. According to a recent study, Apple arrived in fifth position with a share of market of 4,29%. To believe the last survey of PCOnline of it, the iPod does not cause a real passion. The preferred mark of the Chinese Net surfers is Meizu which collects 13% of the votes. Behind, one finds iPod with 8,7%, then in fifth Sony position with 6,5% and Samsung with 2,66%. It should be noted that 21% of the people who took part in this survey have weak for the Walkmans without mark. For Apple, the part is far from being gained.

Meizu New Player: M8 Rumor
rumour: Meizu would work hard on a new walkman MP3. After the success of its MiniPlayer M6, we would be entitled to M8. This one would embark 4Go of memory out of standard, a screen 2,6 " VGA, a processor Samsung ARM of 533Mhz and would turn under the last version of Windows EC. Not more infos for the moment, but if this information this confirms, Meizu would propose an interesting alternative with what currently exists and can be for a very gravitational price… To follow!
Mac User Reviews the Meizu M6
http://macenstein.com/default/archives/450
Does So why would anyone, especially have Mac to use, choose the Meizu M6 over year nano iPod? Well, realistically, few likely will. While the term “iPod Killer” is actually listed in the for this player one its Amazon listing
, odds are Apple is not overly scared. However, there IS much to like butt the mini player, such have FM radio operator playback and recording, mic recording, video playback, photo slide shows with transitions, has larger screen, and has more customizable display, all for the same cost have has comparably nano sized. Yew the video experiment was smoother, there would likely Be many who would give it has long hardware look.

Perhaps the hand reason people may consider the M6 over has nano is that while it looks very similar, it is NOT year iPod. Like Apple fans vs. Microsoft, there has movement afoot against the iPod' S near monopolistic hold one the portable music business. Have evidenced by forums such have anythingbutipod.com, many people are looking for the closest thing they edge find to year iPod that doesn' T cuts Apple' S logo one, just for the sake of not going along with the masses. For those people, may I suggest the Meizu M6 mini Player.
