Flashed Rockbox H140 problems

(1/3) > >>

PinkZeppelin:
I flashed the rockbox firmware to my player a while ago, and have been having troubles with the daily builds for a couple months, things like "filetype array full", hanging when loading songs, the plugins directory saying "no files", and various other errors I didn't have before.  I have tried deleting the rockbox directory and file from the root directory, and installing many different current builds (including the most recent) but all have had the same problem.


I am confused about this message on the iriver flash page:

"If you want to restore the original firmware, you can do so by using a file from either one of these methods:

    * Convert an original firmware provided by iRiver from ihp_120.hex to ihp_120.bin"

what do I use to convert the file to bin (i assume there is more involved then simply renaming the file?)

Domonoky:

for restoring the original firmware on h1x0 and h3x0 you just have to put an original firmware on the disk, boot the original firmware (via the correct button press at boottime), and use the "update Firmware" option in the original firmware.

and about your problems with plugins, that normally happens if you only update the .rockbox folder.
you could try to delete ".rockbox" and "rockbox.iriver" (if you still have this in the root dir) and unzip a fresh build again.. if this doesnt help, you could try a scandisk to check if there are errors on the disk..

PinkZeppelin:
well, i cannot boot the original firmware anymore, because I have flashed the rockbox bootloader.  

But I have found that all of the problems occur when booting from the ROM image or RAM image, whereas rockbox seems to function correctly when booting from disk, so I will just set that as the default option at the moment.

Llorean:
No, you have flashed Rockbox. If you'd merely flashed the bootloader, the original firmware would be loadable.

PinkZeppelin:
yes, you are correct

also, going into the version information screen freezes the player
