Bricked Gigabeat S60 Needs to reflash ROM

<< < (2/3) > >>

DRB:
Yes I did both of things but no joy. I even tried removing the hard drive and powering it up but nothing happens.

bluebrother:
Hmm, then I have no idea what's the problem or what to do about it. Sounds like a hardware issue to me. Sorry.

Hi,

I would try to go back to original firmware.  You did save a copy of it as mentioned in the RockBox installation section ?

If the player was working when you started....it should still be recoverable.

Did you do a full hardware reset/reformat ?

DRB:
Yes I did but still nothing.

Hi,

The S60 seems, or rather mine seems to be REALLY sensitive to low battery power.

One thing to maybe try is...Plug power wart into power port...WITH battery switch OFF...and with the USB cable plugged into both PC and S60,  switch the battery back to ON...see if the unit will now go into bootloader mode...

That will make sure you have plenty of power when the unit begins to power up from battery switch off position....
