@alienkid10:
we actually don't know exactly how they did get out of the tree
@buckminster:
that's the only modification.
I'm still waiting for the next official Rockbox Utility release before I can remove this wiki alternative method. It seems some problem has to be solved before its release
I should release a touchpad sensitivity setting very soon. Actually the patch is ready but I have to wait for approvement from the developer community to be sure it's clean enough.
git people may have a look here http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/123/

I also had this problem.I can't update my bootloader to V8 and even original firmware.But sometimes before was OK.
To solve this, I boot my fuze+ in original firmware, and reset setting. Then I can update bootloader normally.
Sorry for my poor engling :-[

Confirmed.
Problem is, if you connect USB while running OF, you get the rockbox bootloader USB mode screen.
I've changed between MSC and MTP modes in the OF and can't seem to get it to connect in the OF.
Which means that I can't get it to detect the firmware file which makes it impossible to upgrade.
-sigh-
I'm currently running bootloader V7 (r31459-111229)
Suggestions?

I just didn't fully understand :)
First copy the file to the internal memory.
To kick off the upgrade, boot into OF, go to settings and select "Restore"
Restart the player and it will begin the upgrade.

I have an easier way to upgrade:
make sure player is off
hold vol-down
connect USB cable
release vol-down after 3-10 seconds
you are now in OF-USB mode.

Hi.
I just bought my Sansa Fuze+ And installed latest rockbox. But I am quite new to this so where do I see bootloader version I am using?.
ddscentral:
I don't remember having to use OF USB mode when updating to bootloader V8.
I've just uploaded the firmware file in RB bootloader USB mode and then rebooted to OF (OF automatically triggered the update).
