Sansa Clip+: bricked by rockbox
johnnyz86:
Today, when going into the database view while playing an audiobock (selected from the database view), the Clip+ displayed one of the rockbox crash screens but instantly turned off before I could read it.
It was being charged at the time through a USB car adapter (power pins only). It was playing an AAC file that was 6 hours long (not sure if it's a known bug, but fast forwarding past the halfway point screws wraps the position back to the beginning). All files were on the microSD card, with only rockbox files on the main hard drive.
Now, it does not respond to the power button, home+power held, and nothing is detected when I plug it in via USB to a computer.
Installed it yesterday with the following settings:
- newest clip firmware 16A
- automatic installer 1.2.12, installed RockBox v3.10
- extras, some themes, doom wad
- car adapter mode
- Load database into RAM
I've used rockbox on the Clip+ for a year and recently the Clip+ died due to other reasons. I had it replaced, so I threw the newest automatic installer v3.10 yesterday. I put on all the extras, some themes, charged it, tested it out, etc.
Please let me know if there is anything more I can provide to help make sure this doesn't happen again with a new Clip+.

There is no such thing. There's a Rockbox release 3.10 and Rockbox Utility, which current version is 1.2.12.

Fixed. That's what I meant, I downloaded it yesterday.

If it crashed and holding power doesn't work (and you've tried it a few times for up to a minute), you might have to wait for the battery to die.

Thanks, this was indeed the case.
Is there like a core file or anything that can help figuring out what happened?
