There is a mirror site linked in H300 bootloader wiki page which is working and provides some files, but all links to iRiver's firmware files are dead.

OK, I'm grateful, if you can send them to me. I try to flash them, and see what happens. I'll report the results. Does anyone have hardware for recovering a bricked H300? I can pay for the work, of course. jp: you don't need to search your hard drives. I think I'll do with XavierGr's files. Either they work or I perish. But thank you very much for offering help! -- Aura
