my question is about the e200tool and i know its nothing related to rockbox... i dont know where else to post this but i think that the people here are the only one that can help me.
My Sansa View is broken and only goes to manufacturing mode when i plug it in to my machine.
lsusb shows this:
linus@linus-laptop:~/Desktop/e2tl$ lsusb

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0781:0720 SanDisk Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
when i try to use the e200tool, this what happens...
linus@linus-laptop:~/Desktop/e2tl$ sudo ./e200tool recover bootLoader.rom

after the tool initialized, the 6666:e200 doesnt appear. im thinking this is because the usb stub is designed for the e2 and c2 which uses the same chip (AS3514) while the view uses AS3517. if so, which part of the sourcecode should i modify so the tool will work on the view?
i have 2 sansa views. one is working and one is not.
if you want to access the manufacturing mode on a working view, first you have to fully shut it down (slide the power switch for about 8-10 second) then enable hold then plug it in the computer while pressing and holding on the center button.
i dont want to have this replaced (yet). if there is another way, i want to try it first.
is there anyone that can help me develop the tool?
