Clip V2: Not powering on after Rockbox Install
davhar:
Just wondering if you had any luck with your sansa clip V2. I had the same experience with my Sansa clip. Installed the new sansa firmware, installed rockbox, using the desktop utility, restarted the Clip and it just died. I've had it sitting for several weeks hoping the battery would die. Before I cracked open the case I wanted to see if it was possible to recover my clip.

No, not yet. I plan on trying some more when I get some free time. I don't have high hopes. I will post back after my next set of tests.

I got one
and do not know if I should try rockbox on it or not.
Now I get it rockboxed well.
Did you try uninstall the rockbox with the utility?
lionfury:
Let it drain for 3 days and then plug it in. It worked with my fuze

Today I tried to put rockbox on my clip v2 using the rockbox utility. I did the same steps Lacrocious did with the same result, a dead clip. To make a long story short: I found the recovery pins, followed the SansaAMSUnbrick guide and my clip is working again.
I marked the pins on a photo that I found on the wiki (see attachment). While the board layout on the photo is identical to the one on my player, my board is missing the rightmost component (the big silver one that has a black 'c' printed on it and some red glue on the top).
After recovering the player I tried the manual rockbox installation routine but had no luck. So if someone has a clue I would be happy to hear it.
