Problems with iRiver h10 20 GB (Now with even more problems.)

<< < (2/2)

karashata:
The battery is replacable if you can open the player with the appropriate security torx key (most online shops will ship one with the battery), and it is an internal battery.  That battery should fit fine, though because it's a higher capacity than the stock battery (which is 1600 mAh) it may be just a bit snug.

Old Schooler:
Just as a note:

There is a 2200MA battery that will most definitely fit in an H10. I don't have the model number handy but I know it will fit because I put one in mine, along with an 80gb hard drive. It lasts for a long time. If memory serves me, it was actually for an H320 or 340. It was a little narrower and a tad thicker, but it fit without any real modifications.

I will get/post the number when I find it.

Awesome.   Thanks.  Upgrading the hard drive sounds like something I could use too.  Do you have any guides on how to do it?

GodEater:
There's not much to put in a guide really - simply open the player, unplug the old drive, plug in the new one, boot up player, install Rockbox again. Done.

Famf:
Ok, so, I got the new battery.  Fits perfectly.  But after I got done putting it in and charging it, I turned on the player and got an error saying system files are missing and that I need to run the recovery thing.  It boots into the emergency connection but it doesn't show up as a removable drive on my PC and the recovery program doesn't detect it.

After a while of leaving it in emergency mode, my PC says it has a removable drive, but freezes when I try to open it.  And if I try to run the recovery program, nothing comes up.

I took it apart to try and replugin the hard drive, but it's doing the same thing.  Anyone have any advice?  Maybe I'm still doing something wrong with the hard drive...
