Rockbox Utility Says "Does Not Detect," E260R Version 1

(1/2) > >>

Helgen:
Whenever I open the Rockbox installer, it always says that it sees my player, but when I try to install it, I clicked install, then it says "no sansa detected!"

I seriously can't do anything to my player involving rockbox, and I'm 100% sure it's a version 1, it starts with a 1. Everything was checked, even a friend who has the 6gb (I have the Rhapsody 4GB) version tried, but I can't get past that message. When I chose the manual install, it installed, but rockbox doesn't start at all, all the files are on the player, but RB doesn't start.

I've tried installing it on Rhapsody mode in options, I haven't tried the MTP mode. I clicked autodetect in the options and chose the drive (which is the player's main drive,) doesn'[t do anything. Though, it says in the main window that the selected device is my Sandisk Sansa e200v1 series at G:\...

I have tried the e200r patcher, that also doesn't detect my player!

What the heck should I do!?

The rbutil does not support installation on the Sansa e200r models.

To install on these models, please follow the instructions here: SansaE200RInstallation

The bootloader does not read my player though! I put it in the safety/UMT mode or whatever, normal mode, no matter what mode I put it in, it never detects my player!

Edit: GREAT! Now I think I fucked up my player, I did everything exactly like in those steps, now when I turn on my player, it says "Load main image failed, use recovery mode." Then when I plug it in, it's still using the manufacturers driver and I can't even see the disc drive anymore, I only see it in device manager as a usb device... Now what? How can I just get back to the regular firmware, this is way too much trouble.

Edit: I made the driver choose an old driver, and did the unbrick method... Had I known it'd be this much trouble just to add rockbox only so I might be able to put some gameboy games on it, I'd never fuck with my mp3 player.

This is way too much shit to do, I wish they make an installer for the R series already.

Who's "they"? Rockbox is made by volunteers, and "they" are not planning to to things just because you messed up the installation. Feel free to send patches for adding support to Rockbox Utility for the e200r.

Helgen:
If I type E200 on google, I found more cases of problems than buying links, that's why I should have known. Of course someone would want an installer of a software that's hard to install yet better than your current software for your MP3 player :D
