Upgrade YP-S3 to UMS with RDS-functionality

[Cyrano]

This guide http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...8&postcount=14 works fine if you just want to upgrade your YP-S3 to UMS-Mode. However the RDS-functionality will not be available anymore. The solution. Instead of this config.dat
YP-S3
US EN UMS

use this one:
YP-S3
EU EU UMS

Now RDS & UMS works like a charme

If you already upgraded your player and you want to enable RDS just repeat the whole upgrade:
1. Go to http://www.samsung.com/download/index.aspx?agreement=y, look for a YP-S3 without J in its name and get the latest firmware
2. unzip the file
3. check that you have a S3.ROM and NOT a S3J.ROM
4. connect your player with your PC
5. copy S3.ROM into the root-folder of your YP-S3
6. Open notepad or any other texteditor and create a file with this text
YP-S3
EU EU UMS

7. save it into the root of S3
8. unplug the player
9. power on and wait until the upgrade finished

I tried this on my YP-S3JAB/XAA device. It did not convert to UMS mode. I then retried updating the rom using the following config.dat settings:

YP-S3
KR KO UMS

This worked! Also, I was able to upgrade the firmware from Linux (Ubuntu Karmic Koala) which recognized and mounted the original device using the gphoto2 library. YMMV!
