Gigabeat S Stuck in Update Mode! Please Help!

(1/2) > >>

xir0d:
I recently went to this site looking for progress on the Gigabeat S, and ended up putting my Gigabeat into recovery mode (by doing the left button + start button).

I have absolutely no idea how to get it back to normal. The reason I put it in recovery mode was to format the drive, but I have no idea how to update or get my old firmware back.

Any and all help would be immensely appreciated.

update: fixed. DL'd Gigabeat V updater. Works fine.

my gigabeat has the same problem
i have downloaded the V updater tool but it wont work

i connect the player and it downloads whatever it is it needs to download
then i disconnect the player and it reboots
i get a screen that says
"do not reset your device at this time. Please Wait"

then it reboots again and i get another screen that says
"firmware update required. Please wait"

the player reboots again and i get another screen that says
"Connect the portable media center to a PC"

and if i do that then the whole thing starts again
so what am i doing wrong here?

im sorry if these questions have been answered somewhere else already
i have honestly looked around and this was the closest thread to what i needed
its late and im tired so i might have missed it

anyway, thanks in advance

AlexP:
Please people, rockbox on the gigabeat S is not near to booting yet.  If you don't know what you are doing, don't mess around with it.

malephar:  All we have is on the wiki page.

malephar:
i wasnt messing about with anything
i just put some songs onto it last night and when i went to listen to them but it crashed
i got the same error msg as the guy above and i was just trying to reinstall the firmware is all

i cant see anything on the wiki page about the gigabeat V updater
