Anyone know a good, hackable bluetooth mp3 player? Fitbit recently disabled transferring music to my Versa 1. Any cheap, preferably physically clippable, mp3 players? I guess storage being accessible over USB would be enough, but I’d love a device that is easily hackable to my hearts content.
You may want to check out Rockbox compatible devices. I think there’s some flippable SanDisk ones.
thanks, that’s a great starting point. It seems the SanDisk players aren’t easily available anymore but I’ll look for the other compatible devices.
Can’t really give you a recommendations but a starting point could be the rockbox firmware. They have a list of mp3 players that they have been able to install their custom firmware on. https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/TargetStatus Maybe there is a player on that list that you like. Do note that the last update was in 2019 so the devices on that last are probably even older than 2019
The dev builds are actually very recent but finding a cheap hardware is still not that easy. The forums are a great place to start, I guess.
