The same WM1A/Z Walkman One firmware is also available for the ZX300, A55, A45, and A35 players. Sorry for using English here

You have the chance of running the WM1A/Z firmware on the A45. You can check it out here: https://www.nwmods.ml/p/nw-a40series.html This firmware is also available for A55 and A35. Please make sure to read all the info regarding the settings file and how to change the sound signature. I recommend checking out the FAQ section: https://www.nwmods.ml/p/faq.html I know it's a Polish forum, so sorry for the English.

Hehe, cześć Dramba

Check this out! This is an actual firmware mod, and not a tuning mod. 1. WM1A/Z+ Features: - switching the model (from "Settings" > "Device Settings") - improvements to the sound for both WM1A and WM1Z - DSEE HX AI (present on DMP-Z1) - improved battery life - hardware accelerated rendition of the UI (faster menus) How to: First install the firmware, and then go to "Settings", "Device Settings", "Reset/Format/Model Switcher", and then choose "Switch Device Model". After switching the model, install this firmware again, in order to fully apply the new model's sound signature. Switching the model is not mandatory, as the mod brings sound improvements for both players. The process of switching the model takes about 1 or 2 seconds, and then the player will restart automatically. You can always see what is your current model by going to "Settings" > "Unit Information". 2. CHAMELEON (stock sound) Features: - switching the model (from "Settings" > "Device Settings") - DSEE HX AI (present on DMP-Z1) - hardware accelerated rendition of the UI How to: First install this firmware, and then go to "Settings", "Device Settings", "Reset/Format/Model Switcher", and then choose "Switch Device Model". After switching the model, install this firmware again, in order to fully apply the 1Z sound signature to your 1A. The process of switching the model takes about 1 or 2 seconds, and then the player will restart automatically. You can always see what is your current model by going to "Settings" > "Unit Information". Frequently Asked Questions (applicable for both mods) - How do I get back to stock firmware? First make sure you switched back to the original model for your player, and then just install the stock firmware of your choice. - Do I need to be on version 3.02 before installing one of the mods? No, you do not. - If I am already using one of the two firmware mods, do I need to first switch back to 1A or to 1Z, and then I can install any new versions of the mods? No, you can just go ahead and install new versions of the mods, when/if they appear, unless specified otherwise. - If I am using the "WM1A/Z+" firmware and I want to try the "CHAMELEON" firmware, do I first need to switch the model back to original? No, you can just install the other firmware and that's it. Just remember that for going back to stock, you should first switch to the original model for your player. - What happens if I switch the model, but then I don't install the firmware again? Nothing wrong will happen. The sound might not be the same as if installing the firmware again though. Feel free to experiment, but the recommendation is that you should install the firmware again after switching the model. If you were on 1Z, and then you switch on 1A and you don't install the firmware again, the sound will mainly be the one of 1A, but it will still have slight characteristics of the 1Z sound. Same goes if you are on 1A, then you switch to 1Z, but then you don't install the firmware again. The sound will mainly be the one of 1Z, but it will still have slight characteristics of the 1A sound. LINK Sorry for the English, guys! Hope you'll enjoy it!

Check this out! This is an actual firmware mod, and not a tuning mod. Hello, Some of you probably heard about the new modded firmware for the NW-WM1 Series (link). The same mod was also done for the ZX300/A, though it's based on the sound of the ZX300/A, so it will not sound exactly the same as the mod for the NW-WM1 Series. I'll call it simply... ZX300/A+ Features: - improvements to the sound (it also depends on your preferences, of course) - DSEE HX AI (present on DMP-Z1) - improved battery life - hardware accelerated rendition of the UI (faster menus) How to: Just install the firmware, like any other official firmware version. - How do I return back to the stock firmware, if I want to? If you'd like to return back to stock, just install any stock firmware version (for example 2.01, 2.02, etc.). - Do I need to have 2.02 preinstalled, or any other version? No, you do not. Just go ahead and install this one. The firmware works on both ZX300 and ZX300A, and it's based on the 2.02 version. Give it a try and let me know what you think! I plan on doing the same mod to the 2.01 version as well. LINK Sorry for the English, guys! Hope you'll enjoy it!

Feel free to give WM1Z² a try, here (click). If you applied other tunings before, it's recommended that you first flash the stock 3.02 firmware (download here) before applying one of these tunings. If the name is not enough, this is intended for the WM1Z. The mod is based on the 3.02 firmware. There is also JustAnother WM1Z Tuning (didn't have a better idea for the name :D) You can find it here (click). Compared to WM1Z², this one has an increased soundstage, with a more relaxed/distanced presentation, while having no loss in details. Recommended region is J, but it may sound good/better with other regions as well, of course. Sorry again for the English! I actually live in Krakow and I visited the mp3store forum before, even bought something from the store. Cheers!

Sorry again for English. I just want to introduce you to: WM1Az Get the organic, lush, and warm sound signature of WM1Z, with increased sound stage and impeccable imaging, on your WM1A. Truly balanced sound that transforms your 1A to 1Z, without having to spend anything to modify your precious DAP*. This could be the ultimate upgrade firmware for anyone who likes a warm sound that is unlike any other on your 1A. Feel free to give it a try, here (click). This is based on the stock 3.02 firmware, region J. Also, this is only for WM1A, as the point is to make the 1A sound as close as possible to 1Z, with improved soundstage. and... WM1A-z1 An attempt at bringing the nuanced and refined sound signature of the DMP-Z1 to our awesome little WM1A. Lush, airy and live vocals come forward majestically, surrounded by silky smooth treble and superb definition and depth of bass. Feel the sound all around you, thanks to the expansive sound stage and impressive imaging. Feel free to give this a try, here (click). As for previous mods, this is based on stock 3.02, region J (though it may sound good with other regions as well). Enjoy 3000! *Just want to mention that I have nothing against hardware modding, everyone is free to do as they wish with their hardware.

Hello, Sorry that I don't speak english. I see you liked those mods, so I thought you may also like this (even more maybe). The tuning was done on a stock WM1A with 3.02 firmware, using the J region. and it's intended for WM1A. The Seasons (click) Read more about each season, here:
