I
told
you
so

But really, you can recover to the vanilla bootloader with e200tool - a luxury the users of the real R models cannot.

e200tool is hosted and somewhat explained here:

http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/e200tool.html

There have been a large amount of posts in these forums about using it in various situations. Some of them must be helpful to you too.

Prepare to not only get familiar with the command line, but a command line on linux!

1. You should never format the drive (as mentioned in lots of places)

2. mi4code is not helpful as you need to use the e200tool to recover

You repeatedly ignore advice, warnings and hints so I'm not surprised you ended up like this.

First step would be to figure out why this is.

With the damage you have done by not following instructions, the only existing way to recover it is by use of e200tool.
