Sansa e250 - PC can't read in Rockbox, original fw, or recovery mode

(1/5) > >>

Aelothe Ordell:
what do i do? i don't think it's bricked, cuz doesn't that mean i can't get back to the original firmware? i can, but everytime i plug it into the computer, it charges but doesn't read the player. i'm using Windows XP, and i don't have Linux. i was thinking maybe i can put the original fw on my microSD card, boot my device under Rockbox, cut/paste PP5022.mi4 file into root directory, and reboot. but i'm afraid that it won't work, and i'll have a more pointless mp3 player. i mean, i could just get music on through the microSD card, but if i can actually fix it, that would be great.

We don't know what you did. You didn't describe exactly what you did, how you did it, or even the problem in general. We're not psychics, and simply can't guess what the problem is.

Now tell us EXACTLY what the problem is. What did you do? What firmware version are you using? Did you try taking any steps to fix your Sansa? Give details!

Aelothe Ordell:
um, let's see. well, last weekend i plugged my Sansa e250 into my PC to put music on it. i have the lastest firmware on it. everything was fine. then, last night, i went to connect my device to the PC, and it wouldn't read it. it only charges. i tried everything in my power to fix it. i tried to put it in recovery mode. it will go in, but even then the PC won't read it. the problem - my PC can't read my device. at all. whatsoever. i'm using cpchan's build, so i posted in there as well, in case it is due to his build. but i use his and the official, so i wasn't sure. as for how it happened - i don't know. it just happened.

LambdaCalculus:
Well, then lock this thread. You're supposed to ask for unofficial build help ONLY in the appropriate thread for the build in the "Unsupported Builds" section of the forum.

Continue discussion of the issue there.

Aelothe Ordell:
sorry then.
