Rockbox again killed my second (!) Clip+

(1/2) > >>

TomecekGD:
Hi.

In the past I wrote THIS threat. After this issue I bought second clip+ and flash it with Rockbox. Today this second Clip+ also stopped working (!!!) - it have identical symptoms as first Clip+.

So I do not known what's happening. Two Clip+ stopped working with Rockbox firmware! So what now? I must buy third Clip+?!

I have question to staff: I want send you this two clips+ that you have studied them for good of the Rockbox community and next... smash it  :) Can I get any address?

First Clip+ was sent to b0hoon.
Second Clip+ was sent to funman.

saratoga:
Probably just need to wait for the battery to die then update your build. I think I fixed this bug .

b0hoon:
Hi.

I've received the Clip+ from TomecekGD and it was indeed bricked, but in a strange way. It's a model after refurbishing, with "R" after the serial number, after a very poor reconditioning inside btw. On the beginning i thought that it is the reason of death. I dismantled it, because there was no any reaction to USB cable and then resoldered the battery, still nothing. Then i replaced the battery for the one from the Gogear sa9x00, cause the original one was drained to zero (measured with the multimeter) and the player started to react continuously (dmesg):

[  889.793248] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device number X using ehci_hcd
[  904.858619] usb 1-3: device descriptor read/64, error -110

I've restored it in a slightly different way than on the Wiki page (no pads bridging). I held power button for about 10 seconds, until dmesg showed me:
[  910.237677] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3

I knew then, that the dap is in off state for sure. Then while holding the "left" button i pressed the power button, as if i would like to run the OF from the Rockbox bootloader. Dmesg showed me:

[  952.560626] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device number 11 using ehci_hcd

Note that in a normal case (OF) you will get:

[ 5723.102817] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device number 29 using ehci_hcd
[ 5723.218294] usb 1-3: New USB device found, idVendor=0781, idProduct=74d1

[ 5723.218298] usb 1-3: Product: SanDisk Sansa Clip+

Then i did:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdg bs=512 count=$((0xF000))
dd if=./clppa.bin of=/dev/sdg bs=512 count=$((0xF000))

and it was ready. I've replaced the battery at the end of course and upgraded Rockbox to the current build from 3.11.2. I'm writing all of this because maybe it can be useful to someone in the future.

TomecekGD decided to donate me this player for the purpose of development and testing. Thank you!

Hi, I am in the same situation (black screen 2GB Clip+ reporting to the system as the M200Plus 1.84 GiB, dmesg log is the same), but I has not been successful with the dd commands described here (tried both under Linux and Windows, dmesg reports write errors). Is there something else I can do with it?

I lost my player (frozen) when I simply connected it to the PC USB port as usual, no dangerous stuff like flashing etc... Then I use the power button reset trick, but the player screen remains black forever. Now it reports to the PC as the M200Plus, the unformatted disk is readable in WinHex, the content seems to be meaningful.

Thanks for help.

bbildman:
Exactly the same problem here, looks dead as a doornail, won't boot, no screen at all with any buttons pushed. Did you find any solution??
