Thanks Joe. I take that to mean the cause is absent from the Creative code, and present in the bootloader and Rockbox code.

The WPS you showed here?? Then I'm surprised. My default WPS looks like this. Does it change if you reset using Settings, Manage Settings, Reset Settings?

That too is strange. Here the Screendump facility captures WPS fine.

Great! Thanks. I'll test it.

EDIT: It works. Previously the device would charge in the bootloader but not in RB - now it charges in both. Thanks again pamaury for the great work.
FTR, the change is here, the build is here, the version is 3f55f01-131201. Note: there's disagreement between dates in filename and version.

--- End quote ---

I find different. The current bootloader (V1Beta2_fb8faa1) charges fine, and IIRC the very first one did too.

New try at LCD fix:

* Gerrit task: http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/688
* Corresponding build: https://www.dropbox.com/s/scx4ya1jj1hgvq1/rockbox-zen-lcd-fix.zip

I've tested this through a few hundred boot cycles. No change. I.e.

Procedure: Press and hold Power button.

Observed:

* most boots succeed (RB logo appears and since Power is held, device reboots)
* some fail upon RB start (immediately after "Executing..."), showing black screen, no response to buttons, and (with play Resume) no sound
* none fail upon bootloader start (immediately after CREATIVE logo)

After fail and reset, the boot often immediately fails again. Here, fail frequency is higher than upon boot on Power button above.

Conditions: ZEN 4Gb "J"; Bootloader version V1Beta3_3f555f01; RB version rockbox-zen-lcd-fix.zip 9ff1819-131202; default settings.

MRJOE8010:
I have also tested 131201, 131202 and 131203 builds with similar results to chrisjj's... 131203 seems most stable, with most bootssuccessful and playback normally, some still hang after RB logo or crash after begining boot sequence.  I have noticed an increased problem with crashing after disconnecting usb both booting directly to usb or connecting usb after successful boot.

Chris, you mentioned "Bootloader version V1Beta3_3f555f01", the latest from the download link is version: V1Beta2_fb8faa1 is this a new bootloader? I would like to try this version to see if it affects the screen issues I have been experiencing.

I get neither. What I get is hang after the bootloader text, but before the RB logo.

I too get hangs there, though I don't know if the frequency has increased. I also get them on RoLo, if I answer Yes. Probably one in five times.

16:39   pamaury   chrisjj: could you do me a favor and try a new bootloader: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lylxog0szynnxtm/firmware-zen-v3.nk

Worth a try I think, even though:
