Samsung YH-820 : "Connect to PC and repair firmware with recovery utility"

<< < (2/2)

Nichlas:
A ok, i see, sorry.
Dont know if it helps, but when my YH-925GS crappes out on me i run the Janus upgrader again
and it recreates all the files and formats the hdd. You could try that if you havent already.

akkia:
hi there.. had the same problem and been struggle so desperately until I found this firmware upgrader and is available to download at http://rapidshare.com/files/7999029/820firmwareupgrade_for_MTP.exe.html

I even register to this forum to share this very very important and relieving info :-D... good luck.. tell me how it goes..

Ciznyadin:
Is there any chance that someone is till using this specific player and has software to fix the 'Device cant HDD initialize' error? I got into the rockbox game a bit late  :)

lebellium:
You can try the Recovery Utility (installed together with Samsung Media Studio) but it only works with Windows XP 32 bit and I'm not sure it can fix your issue (it may be an hardware issue)

The micro drive probably died. Fortunately, it shares the same interface with CompactFlash so one can easily swapped it out for a new CompactFlash card.
