Could you give step-by-step instruction how to upgrade?

My replacement VX580R will arrive today or tomorrow... the last one broke down because of a failed upgrade.

Just found this:

Seem's to be a "lite" Version of the 1.5.3 firmware. It has 50 MB only. The normal firmware is about 70 MB.

@ all

My new player arrived today in the afternoon. I use it now with factory settings. Can you tell me where to get apps, especially games. I loaded some free games like Angry Birds but I couldn't install the apk file. The player gives the following message: this software could not be installed on this telephon. Do I need an internet connection or what is going wrong?. The player has no network or internet function. Can anyone help?

Firmware upgrade successful !

Couldn't resist giving it another try. It worked, but only on with WinXP. Firmware is now 1.5.3.
Touchscreen response is much better.

good to hear
not sure about loading apps on this manually, when we looked at these there appeared to be a desktop app/program that connected tothe market and the player to load apps, not sure how else it can be done, rowwor has similar player maybe she will know, birds though may not load as it will possibly be looking for connection or if the player is 1.5 then it wont load as you need 2.1 or 2.2 to load birds

The device runs on android 2.1.

Okay firmware is up to date now. But if I connect the player to the computer, it tells me, disk is not formatted. What file system do I have to choose for formatting? Fat 16, Fat 32, NTFS?

Did it. It's Fat32.

Is there a way to remove useless system apps like Colornote or AppQuickSearch. I can't remove it with ApkInstaller. Seems to be protected or read only.

yeah - fat 32, as you have found out, is there a program called APK installer at all?

Yes, there is such a program.
