Problems Installing Bootloader on Sansaclip Zip

(1/5) > >>

Stevewils:
Morning All,

I'm having problems installing the bootloader on a Sansaclip Zip using the utility program.

I have updated the firmware on the Zip to 1.1.20, as the original was 1.1.12.

On the "Quick Start" tab of Ulility both installation buttons are greyed out, so I can't use these.

On the "Installation" tab, I run the "install the bootloader" but I get two errors.
1. Original firmware unknown, please try another version (I have downloaded Ver 01.01.20 and point to this file)
2. Could not load C:/users/Wilson/AppData/Local/Temp/qt_temp.oM4692

Unfortunately I am not techie enough to do a manual install so am looking for a bit of advice.

ATB,
Steve.

This usually means that whatever file you provided wasn't actually a firmware for your player.  What file did you give it?

Stevewils:
I installed Ver 01.01.20 from Sansa website.

I tried to use the following bootloader from Anythingbutipod.

sansaclipzip-01.01.20-rockbox_bootloader-120513-5f7d5b8.zip

bluebrother:
What type of the firmware have you downloaded? You need the version for manual installation, not the installer. Plus, you don't need (nor want) to download the Rockbox bootloader manually.

Stevewils:
I have downloaded the Rockbox Utility.

On the "Quick Start" tab, both the Complete & Minimal Icons are greyed out, so I moved to the "Installation" tab.
On the "Installation" tab I hit the "Install Bootloader", but it asks for a copy of the Sansaclip bootloader, which I point it to on my C drive, which is when it fails.
