Sansa Fuze Plus Rev. 2

(1/2) > >>

Jerrymc777:
So I bought an old Sansa Fuse Plus on eBay and discovered it's a Rev. 2 edition.

It has Firmware 2.37.01 and using the RB Util, it fails to patch the Sansa bootloader.

I tried manually reflashing the FW, but to no avail.

I did not see Sansa Fuze Plus Rev. 2 in the Device Status page, so I'm assuming Rev. 2 is NOT RB compliant...???  :(

Anyone know what the issue might be?

Thanks!

2.37.01 is a normal fuze plus.

Jerrymc777:
Any ideas on how to load RB bootloader, since the util fails with:

"Downloading bootloader file
Download finished (cache used).
[ERR]  Original firmware unknown, please try another version. Tested Clipv1 versions are: 1.01.17, 1.01.18, 1.01.20, 1.01.29, 1.01.30, 1.01.32, 1.01.35
Could not load C:/Users/GO/Documents/Music/Sansa/Fuze+/firmware.sb"

The firmware.sb file is the fuzeplus02.38.06 FW...

It's almost like the RB Util. only wants the Rev. 1 FW file, which I tried as well...

Jerrymc777:
I was able to upgrade to 02.38.06A manually now, but I still get the same error when trying to patch the Sansa bootloader....

As the message says, you've configured Rockbox Utility for a Clip v1, but the firmware isn't. And as has been said, you have a different player.

How did you configure Rockbox Utility? What is the USB ID of the player? You can find the attached devices in Help / System Info.
