Sansa Fuze V2 Bricked?
Biber25:
okay; it came back; updated the rockbox firmware: no crash so far.
metoob:
biber, the same thing happened to me! i've waited since thursday or wednesday, and the battery hasnt emptied and when i'm lucky it'll show up as unformatted. if not it says malfunctioned and its not in my computer. theres no click in headphones. what exactly did you do to fix it? oh and i opened mine up also just for fun. it didnt change it's functionality. its really not hard just put a knife in over the sd hole and jiggle it then just pry it open, mine didnt break. just in case you ever need to.

Mine seems to have pseudo-bricked itself like others in this thread recently after letting it charge all night plugged into my laptop, after copying some new music to it. My sequence of events:
* Did a safe-remove
* unplugged
* Rockbox booted the rest of the way as normal
* i briefly saw the errror message "cannot find playlist control file" (also normal for me after unplugging from usb, usually has no effect after resuming my previous playlist)
* then the screen went black and i got the several white small lines of "panic text" indicating a crash, which has also happened several times before, and the player turns itself off so quickly that it's unreadable
* this time, for the first time ever, it won't turn back on. i do hear the faint click in the headphones when i plug/unplug earbuds and i listen carefully, so it would appear to be "stuck". That was thursday morning, now it's sunday afternoon; it still won't respond, but still has the "clicky sound".I dunno, soon I might just bow to temptation and crack the case open to try to unplug its battery manually. It's driving me crazy that there's no manual reset switch. I've tried the "hold the power slider" trick - held it for 5 straight minutes - no luck whatsoever :(

The 4MB disk means that the firmware couldn't be loaded from the flash chip. Usually this means the chip is dead.
