Welcome
Welcome to the modding site. Due to creative's original firmwares' lack of possibilities for customization and modification, some smart guys from the Epizenter and Rockbox communities have finally figured out how to put custom firmware on a lot of the creative players. This means non-standard fonts and themes can be used.
There has already been made a lot of themes for the Zen Vision:m 30 gb (which can be converted to 60 gb themes easily). Themes for other players could also be made, if someone with a player and some creativity are willing to put some time into it. Themes for the ZVM (zen vision:m) 30 gb version
To change the firmware, you'll usually use the CreativeWizard, although some of the guides use a hacked version of the original Creative updater. Guide: How to upload firmware If you want to MAKE themes using the CreativeWizard by Mcuelenaere, read this.
If you just want to upload a premade theme (some of them are really good, see zen vision:m themes) scroll about halfway to the bottom ot the tutorial linked to above to see how to upload the .bin (firmware) files.
Fonts for the zvm (zen vision:m) 30 gb can easily be changed. The easiest way would be to use the CreativeWizard, or follow this pictured guide Great thanks to mcuelenaere for both figuring out how to upload custom firmware and creating his CreativeWizard!
The new link destination is onsite, and since the file is pretty big and my connection is a bit slow, it may be a bit slow. But anyway's it's there for you. If you discover other broken links, don't hesitate to report it.
Sorry again for the terribly long downtime. I've moved away from home, so managing the site is a bit more complicated. So, the site is finally up again, if any of you still are interested in using it. Submitted by bobbaluba
and by unresponsive, i mean it lags. It lags so much it takes 0.5-1 sek to update the screen everytime i push a button. And it's unmoddable as far as i know.
the zen mx comes with 16gb and an sd-card slot, and the sd-cards are getting pretty big nowadays. However, i wouldn't recommend the player. The menus are unresponsive and the screen get scratched almost immediately.
