Sansa clipv02 bootloader usb mode Stuck

[exxorcist]

Rockboxed my Sansa clip v02. yesterday  , firmware 2.01.35 . Today its not loading , when i power it on , rockbox icon with boot 5.0 comes up . then while connecting goes to bootloader USB mode.
I tried starting with original firmware by holding the left button while powering up , comes on till sansa and then it says " Connect to USB and Recover FAT files " .
The worst part is i cannot uninstall as rockbox software is not detecting the player . Even the computer is not .
So i cant really make any changes , format , or copy firmware files .

Pls help . Or is it doomed ??

Hold down SELECT and plug in the USB cable to enter Bootloader USB mode. Then, your computer should detect the player and you can go from there.

Still not showing . Should i try the un bricking thing ?? Thats the last resort i guess , nothing else seems to be working . !

Boot into Sansa firmware, connect USB, use the Sansa updater/ copy OF file to USB, unplug, profit. Stock Sansa.

Will try it now , bt when i tried to boot with original sansa firmware it said FAT file corrupted . So dont think it will recognize my clip .
Will let u know what happens .
thanks

Well , nothing comes up really when i do that  , It says u need to format the drive before you can use it , and when i try to format , it says windows cannot format it .
And in the format window it shows the size as 4.03 MB . WEird stuff happening .!

Check your file system - google it

Tried formatting it in Ms-dos , says the file system is RAW , then says new format i s FAT but t doesnt finish formatting. so iam guessing its RAW

Check your file system - google it

If the device shows a 4MB size, that's not only unhelpful advice, it's actually dangerous
