My 4g iPod shows the sad icon -- was: "Bricked iPod?"

<< < (2/2)

marco.b:
During the long charge in disk mode and after approx 30 hours had passed the iPod disk started to spin in a strange way… Rebooting helped to stop the strange disk spinning… However nothing changed and the sad iPod icon still appears on the screen after the reboot…

I think that the only remaining option is to open the case and detach and reattach the disk connector…

Chronon:
Hopefully, the "strange spinning" does not signal a dying HD.

LambdaCalculus:
And if that's the case, then the hard drive will have to be replaced. iFixit has replacement drives in stock, or he can also go for the CompactFlash mod route.
