Sansa Clip Zip rockbox installing not working
« on: March 28, 2014, 08:43:32 PM »
Hello guys! This will be my first post here so please feel free to inform me if this thread is already existing.
Anyhow, I have sansa clip zip and tried installing rockbox using "RockboxUtility-v1.4.0", after few minutes of installing, I am getting this error and I have no choice but to press the OK button:



And when I'm turning on my device on rockbox mode, this message shows:




Can anyone help me? I already tried this for three times but same error occur.  :'(

Ok...for whatever reason, automated installation is halting at downloading the font pack.

I'm going to completely ignore that, as I know absolutely nothing of RbUtil.

The bootloader installed, which is great, as this means that we can easily just forget about RbUtil entirely.

See that second image you uploaded, the one with the "Plug USB cable"? Do what it says. This will mount the device's storage and allow you to extract this archive to it.

Safely eject the volume, and then reboot the device.

Enjoy Rockbox.

Edited to add: Fonts, themes, and other additional files are available to be downloaded manually via the Extras section, and can be treated in exactly the same way (extracted to the root of the device storage).

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.

Thanks buddy! It works :) May I ask where did you get that archive file? Can you also give me the archive file for sansa clip +?

They're from the "Development Builds" page, which you can find by clicking the 'dev builds' link at the top left. The Clip+ one is here.

... which is the same Rockbox Utility uses if you tell it to install a development version.
