Rockbox Development > New Ports
Sansa Fuze+
Trailblazer7818:
I've been using the new developer firmware for the past few days, but now the unit is locked up, and Is now unusable no matter what I do. Is there any way to delete the RB firmware, so that I can reinstall? Please advise..
Thanks!

It has been explained several times in this thread: reboot to the OF using volume down and reinstall the OF.

I guess I didn't explain myself all that well... When I connect the device to the computer, it won't boot. It shows the bootloader id, and that's it. When I unplug the device from the computer, it turns off. Thinking the battery might be low, I left it plugged in for a couple of hours, and got the same result. When I remove the device from the computer, it shuts off, and will not restart, so there is no way to boot into either firmware. When connected to the computer, I can see the files through explorer even though the unit remains dark, other than the boot loader id. The Rockbox utility also sees and auto detects the unit. I tried reloading the FW, and it appeared to load correctly according to the utility, but once again, when I removed the device from the computer, it shuts off and cannot be turned back on. I was wondering if you could tell me if there's a way to manually remove the Rockbox FW, by telling me in detail which files to delete, and hopefully then I can reinstall either the original FW, or preferably the Rockbox FW. As I mentioned, I can see all the files on the device in Explorer. Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

You do not read what I wrote: the bootloader will normally boot the OF if you hold volume down and press longer a few seconds. If you see the bootloader, it means you already missed the step where you could boot the OF. If the device has low battery, just hold volume down and plug the usb cable while holding it.
As for the boot problem: could you at least tell us the bootloader error printed ? That will help us fix the problems if there is one.

I do wonder if this is a Rockbox issue. There have been a number of people complaining about this problem on the SanDisk forums, most of whom don't even have Rockbox. It seems to be some weird Fuze+ issue, possibly caused by poor manufacturing or something. It has been suggested numerous times that users test there Fuze+'s in the parking lot to make sure the unit works.

PS: I'm sorry if this has been reported before, I couldn't find anything.
