refurbed c240 :( - cant get into rockbox or original FW EDIT THANK YOU saratoga

<< < (2/3) > >>

evilnick:
So, why not follow the rest of the instructions and copy over the .mi4 file?

bozeefus:
sorry there. my post is much longer but it keeps cutting off after i enter the info in version.txt

--continuation---
I choose the c200 one - link: http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/c200/firmware.mi4

Then I dragged this file to the flash drive so now there are 2 files:
1. the version.txt
2. firmware.mi4

Then i eject the drive from my macbook desktop

on screen, it will say:
LUNO unlocked
LUNO ejected

Then I continued with the instructions and pulled the mp3 out of usb.

Reading main image
Writing main image

Upgrade finished
Resetting the system.

However, after system resets,
it goes back to
"Load main image fai
switch to recovery
please connect USB"

when connecting USB, the firmware.mi4 file is gone. version.txt is still there

saratoga:
Don't PM me copies of your posts.

evilnick:
Try the next step then. (Unless you have and there's more text to come!)

bozeefus:
Before I begin, I would like to sincerely apologize to saratoga. I would not be able to unbrick my mp3 if it wasn't for your help. I see here that you have posted over 2000 posts, meaning you are an important asset of the Rockbox community. Please do not let my selfish and hasty postings ruin your experience with other new members.

To fix this, I simply entered Recovery Mode.
Went to http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/mi4.html

Downloaded 2 files (yes 2 files) - the firmware.mi4 as well as the bootloader.rom

Placed these 2 files onto the device. Disconnected and the original firmware loaded with no problems.
