c240 firmware rollback fails

<< < (3/4) > >>

MarcGuay:
Gotta plan for the future, you know? :)

I have been unable to downgrade my C240.  I followed the instructions to downgrade from 01.01.05P.  I copied SansaC200P1_01_00.7z to the 16MB-FORMAT "drive".  

The C240 screen indicates that the update is complete and that it is resetting the unit.  When I check settings, there is no "USB" setting and the firmware version still indicates 01.01.05P.  

Is there another trick?

Thanks.

MarcGuay:
Files ending in .7z are archives like .zip and .rar, you need to extract the contents using software that's compatible.  Search the web.

To quote the wiki:

"To update the firmware, copy the unzipped files into the 16mb drive, unplug the player, and release the hold switch."

Can you think of a clearer way to explain that step?  (There is no sarcasm in my voice here, I'd actually like your opinion).

nebcomp:
Thanks for the very quick and very patient reply!

I had a senior moment.  For some reason I read "unzipped" as keep it zipped!  I knew about 7z.

The downgrade worked fine.  Thanks, again.

MarcGuay:
Nice.  Happy to helpies.
