Installation / Removal > Sandisk - Installation/Removal

Sansa e260R v.1 hung up.

(1/4) > >>

ddorf:
I have tried to get RB on the device several time unsuccessfully.  I have been in and out of "Recovery Mode" to try to uninstall any progress to allow me to start over.  My device is currently displaying the following for about 10 seconds then shuts off.

Rockbox boot loader
Version 4.0
sandisk sansa e200
partition: 0 0x0B 3814mb
partition: 1 0x84  84mb
Loading Rockbox......
Can't load rockbox.mi4
file not found
Can't load rockbox.e200
file not found

(punctuation is approximate, my eyes aren't quick enough to guarantee)

In Recovery mode my PC doesn't see my device preventing me from creating a file as suggested in the troubleshooting instructions

So, where do I go from here?

Chronon:
What happens if you boot the player by connecting to USB?  It looks like you already installed the bootloader but didn't install the firmware files in the right place.

ddorf:
Rockbox boot loader
Version 4.0
sandisk sansa e200
partition: 0 0x0B 3814mb
partition: 1 0x84  84mb
Loading original firmware
trying firmware partition
BL mi4 size EC:00
cant load from partition
invalid file format
trying/ System/OF.mi4
Cant load.....file not found
trying/system/ bin.mi4
cant load .....file not found

I am confident that it isn't a lost cause, I am not as confident in my abilities thus far.  Thanks for your continued patience

Chronon:
It seems that you didn't put the original firmware into the system folder (or didn't name it correctly).  Have a look at the instructions here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaE200Unbrick

It's possible to make things worse if you don't follow the directions carefully, so feel free to ask for clarification if something on that page confuses you.

ddorf:
I believe I have already done "worse".  I have been down the unbricking steps before and am at the result stated above.  Along with the conditions stated above, "my computer" doesn't see the sansa as a drive, there is a "g:" drive with no properties listed....I'm screwed aren't I? Give to me straight doc.  ???
