E280 Rhapsody blue ring while attempting manufacturer mode
« on: August 02, 2008, 09:14:19 PM »
Help!  I've installed Rockbox on about eight Sansa E2 players with no trouble whatsoever.  Today I am trying to install Rockbox on a Rhapsody E280 model using these instructions http://(http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaE200RInstallation).  I trouble appears to be with manufacturer mode.  I moved the HOLD switch to on and held the SELECT button while plugging in the USB cable (I did not turn the player on before this step).  All I get is the blue ring and a blank screen.  Nothing else.  I tried step five in the instructions above, but don't see any listing for USB mass storage.

Any suggestions?  This is a beautiful player and worked fine before I tried this.  I'd hate to think I've killed it.

Black screen with blue ring IS the manufacturer mode. Windows doesn't ask for drivers when attached like this?

No, it is not asking for drivers.  I also tried step five in the install directions, but I see no reference to a mass storage device.

I guess the real question here is, how do I get it out of mantufacturer mode since it's not being recognized by either of my computers?
