@bthomsonl:
can you try with this build https://www.dropbox.com/s/ewwvyezg1730e7h/rockbox_fuzep.zip and report here exactly what is written on the crash screen please ?

Thanks for your help! I really appreciate it. I tried that build today but I think I borked the install because the bootloader now says "Bad Checksum". This weekend I will try to download again and give it another shot.

However, if OF has an option to format the card, perhaps try that although since the OF has a filesize limit of around 30 gigs this method becomes useless with larger cards.

Hey, that's a great idea! I'll check for this option and use that to reformat (if it's available). The card is 32GB so it wouldn't be a major loss.

Hello,

I bought a Fuze+ for my daughter. I put rockbox on it using Windows 7.
When I try to connect the player on a computer with Windows XP I can't see the internal memory. How can I do to put new files (music or videos) on it?

Thank you for your help!!!!

I just updated my fuze+ to 8566cd7 and the player is unusable now. There is a loud hiss sound constantly, and music is almost unhearable.

I recently bought a Fuze+, and I am using Rockbox version 8566cd7. When playing back Opus files I have blocks of audio dropped accompanied by lag in touchpad response. I have tested using MP3 files, and they have not resulted in this problem on microSD cards or internal storage. I have also tried the same version on my Clip Zip without issue. The only things I have altered from the defaults are the theme and font used.

The lag is a commonly reported problem.  As far as I know there is no immediate solution.

I have observed that not changing fonts and theme helps reduce the occurrence of the fits.

Reset Rockbox back to defaults and only change necessary settings.

Check the manual.  If the player is recognized in the pc but the internal memory is not visible it is likely that the option to hide the internal memory has been enabled.

Hello,
Thank you Sylvertree.
I tried this option but it's not OK. Some times I can see the 8 gb of the player but it's impossible to create a new folder or copy a new file. At this moment the Windows explorer is very slow until I remove the player.
I think there's a driver problem but I don't know withc driver I have to give to Windows to make Fuze+ works on XP.

Regards.

Last minute:

I finally change USB port. It's OK now. I used the USB port of the mother board; now I use a USB port of a additional card.

Regards

With the Fuze+ RB bootloader v2 (and likely earlier)
When one connects a USB to Windows while in the OF, the machine reduces back down to the RB bootloader.  Therefore there is no formatting benefit from formatting with Windows within OF.

FYI, you can boot into MTP with the OF, it just requires knowing how. On that note, I've decided to post instructions on how to do this on the Wiki, in hope that they will be useful to others. See HERE.

Pamaury,

I can't reach you on the IRC but I just meet a very serious issue:
As you know I've been running rockbox on a modified fuze+ that boot directly from the sdcard, as its intern memory is dead. Recently something very fuck up happens: The sdcard I've been using is now dead the very same way the intern memory was:
- read only
- formating and so on doesn't work even with low level tools

That's a 64 gb sdcard gone  :'(

So I'll modify the wiki to mention that the dead memory turnaround is a dead end...

Is that a sandisk card ? I know some people have suffered fron firmware bugs and Sandisk exchanged the card. The internal storage of the Fuze+ is also from Sandisk so maybe it's all related to a bug in their firmware. At least ir's worth a try.

What low level utilities did you try that couldn't write to it?  Are you sure that the operating system hadn't decided to put it into read-only mode, leaving the utilities stuck?

yes because I used both windows and linux to try to format it. And writing doesn't work also from rockbox or my android phone

If been using dd to zeroing the partition, no effect

I still don't understand how this is possible, especially with both SD and eMMC. And if you suffered from it, potentially anyone could, your custom build does nothing special about SD and MMC. And I don't see how Rockbox could possibly brick a SD card which is an issue. Metaphys, could you send me (again) the SD card so I can have a look at it ?
