Repairing and Upgrading Rockbox Capable Players / Re: Sansa Clip Zip not starting

you might try washing the board in 90% isopropyl not the screen though just to wash away any impurities shorting the flash out but I'm pretty sure its just plain old flash failure at this point, sorry.

iPod video with flash quad. When I first install rockbox the iPod shows correctly as drive f:, however once I start adding any number of music files the iPod drops the drive letter and instead morphs into Rockbox media player - with no drive letter and it doesn’t show up in windows explorer (I know it’s changed to media player as that’s what it’s now called when I go to eject the drive).  Any ideas how I stop it doing this?

Are you by any chance using rockbox mode when syncing tracks?  Not a good idea.

Yes exactly the same as last time. Note that since I disassembled the Clip Zip, it does not show the boot screen anymore ...

I'm pretty sure a 30mb partition means its toast was the file you pulled with dd completely empty?

Rockbox stops playing when usb charger is connected. Is there a setting to allow it to play when plugged in?

When I plug the device using the recovery method, I can select a "Sandisk M200Plus [0402]" USB filter.

I finally managed to get something with sudo fdisk -l, but this does not look encouraging ...

Code: [Select]

Disk /dev/sdb: 30.6 MiB, 32096256 bytes, 62688 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
File produced by dd is exactly the same size and such ...

Is there a way to try to put a firmware on it ?
