Sansa Clip+:Disconnects whilst transferring files

(1/3) > >>

clipuser:
I have a Sansa Clip+, it has Rockbox 3.13 on it. I have a microSD card in it and recently the USB connection keeps getting disconnected whilst transferring files onto the card and the screen of the Clip+ freezes with the USB picture, which requires me to hold the power button down to shut it off. It does not appear to happen when I'm transferring files onto the Clip+ itself. Have only had it for a couple of weeks.

saratoga:
I would try using the sandisk firmware and see if that works.

toehser:
Much better still, use an external adapter to transfer to/from the Micro SD card; only use the Clip's USB for the internal storage.  The external adapter will also be WAY WAY FASTER than the clip can load/store from Micro SD.  And the external USB Micro SD adapters are dirt cheap - often they just come free with the cards...

clipuser:
@saratoga: I don't think there was an issue with disconnections when I was using the original firmware. I'm also noticing now that a few files are 'incomplete' (they end too soon or skip) - I think those were transferred after I installed Rockbox.

@toehser: Thanks I'll look into that

Nitreb:
I have the Clip Zip with RB 3.13 and I experience a similar issue, i.e. when I connect to a USB port, Windows detects the player and displays the Explorer application for a few seconds, then it un-detects the player. So, I can only charge the battery, but I can no longer add or delete files if I connect in RB mode. That problem started a few days ago when I connected the player while pressing the power button. Is there anyway to solve this besides un-installing RB and installing it again?

I still can copy files using the original firmware thought.
