Clip +: Install without USB

(1/2) > >>

Tavisco:
Hello!

I have a Sansa Clip + with a faulty USB, so I can't run the Rockbox Utility to install Rockbox on it. I've tried the manual install method putting the files on the SDCard instead of the internal storage, but when I turn the player on, nothing happens.  :-\

So, it's possible to install Rockbox via SDCard?

Thanks!

saratoga:
You'll need to copy the file from the sd card to the correct location on the internal memory using the rockbox file browser.

But I haven't Rockbox installed on the player  :'(
It's running Sansa's firmware V01.02.16A

saratoga:
Ah then that would be a problem. I think you have to fix the USB well enough to get the firmware update in place.

Try a different PC?

Well, that's what I was fearing, by the research I did, the problem is updating the bootloader, the patched *.bin file *must* be on the internal storage, which I cannot access. There isn't another way to update it?

And I think trying a different PC will not work, I had a problem with a drop of superglue on the connector e.e
