Portable packages include the flashing tool for your computer; the file is saved under the release's own name.

As a preparation for eventually submitting this port to the upstream Rockbox project a lot had to change under the hood.

For now this means the removal of very specific and rarely used features like the Apps menu. It also means simpler merges of new upstream features. 360p only, there won't be any future 240p releases.

If you have issues, try these steps:

  1. Full flash of the new ROM.
  2. Delete .rockbox on your SD card, this should fix any weird path issues you might encounter (especially shortcuts)
  3. Themes have been updated, see here: https://github.com/rockbox-y1/themes/releases/tag/for_the_gays_and_the_theys
  4. If you want to use any custom themes that worked for older Rockbox-Y1 versions, you will need to change paths in the theme files from /.rockbox to /sdcard/.rockbox
  5. Install font pack: https://download.rockbox.org/release/4.0/rockbox-fonts-4.0.zip
