Completely removing all traces of rockbox

<< < (4/9) > >>

Hi again,
unfortunately I'm still having problems with this.

I haven't tried to formatting options above because I don't understand what you guys are saying unfortunately:(

If somebody could please give a step by step instruction of how to go about completely starting again, formatting the HD, removing any trace of rockbox or the orginal firmware if need be, and whatever else needs to be done I would really appreciate it. My friend wants me to DJ with my H140 at his party soon and it would be a real shame for it to freeze mid song :-[

If somebody could also please post up a build of rockbox that they have been using for an extensive period that has no errors so I can put that one on I'd appreciate it too.:)

Hi there, following on from this thread, I think the only solution is to completely start again. If the problem percists than I think it's definitely hardware related. Let's hope it's not though:)

So I'd really appreciate if somebody could give me a step by step instruction on how to go about completely removing rockbox and even the iRiver firmware and just starting again from scratch as if I had just bought a brand new H140.

If somebody could please post a fully functional, error free version of rockbox too I'd love it as I think it was an updated version that started all this trouble.

Would appreciate any help:)

- reflash an original, unmodified iriver firmware
- remove .rockbox, rockbox.iriver
That's all. If you want to be completely sure nothing is left (like for sending it for repairs) you can also format the hdd. Of course you can use dd or something similar to write random data to the complete disk before reformatting. Then everything should be destroyed ;-)

DO NOT start multiple threads on the same subject.  I've merged the two threads.

The (last) very important step is to erase the Rockbox settings: After reinstalling Rockbox turn on the player. Then press the RECORD button and hold it until Rockbox writes "Cleared" to the screen.

Explanation: Rockbox stores it's configuration to the hard drive but outside of the file system so you cannot erase it even by formating the partition.
