SanDisk Sansa® e200 V2 USB?

chrisjj:
Can someone tell me whether Sansa e200v2 running rockbox has a functioning USB? The two articles below have left me thinking the answer is either Yes or No :)

Thanks.

USB Mode

As of Firmware version 03.01.14A, you can go to Settings/USB Mode and select between three options: "Auto Detect", "MTP" (Media Transport Protocol), and "MSC" (USB Media Storage Class Device aka USB Drive).

On Ubuntu and Windows 98SE, as well as any other OS that does not support MTP, both before the firmware update and afterwards using "Auto Detect", the Sansa appears automatically as a USB Drive. On 98SE some generic MSC drivers are needed. YMMV.

If you don't have that firmware, there is a way to change into MSC mode:

1. Power on your Sansa e200v2 2. Switch ON the hold button 3. Press the |<< button and plug in your USB cable 4. Keep it pressed until the Sansa is completely recognized by your OS

This should work on Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Thats an OF version number, not rockbox, so its clearly referring to the OF and not Rockbox.  Hope that helps.

From the wiki: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SansaAMS#Port_Status

No. USB support in Rockbox isn't functional yet. (Unless that page is out-dated, in which case this post should bring attention to that matter.)

OK, thanks.

Karashata, do you agree that this should be corrected e.g. qualified?
