Installation / Removal > Iriver - Installation/Removal/Flashing

Installed H10 20GB Rockbox today... ugh

<< < (3/5) > >>

Maybe that is part of the problem. Rockbox does not have an icon of any sort on my unit.... not next to Text and not next to Rockbox. It is just plain text. When I turn on the unit, this is what I see:

text
Rockbox

If I click on Rockbox it does nothing. I have to hold down the 0 key. Once I get to the next menu of items (file tree), I have the same problem. If I click on Playlist, nothing happens. If I hold down the 0 key, it goes into a blank screen or jumps right back to the file tree... starting with Playlist... ending with Create Directory. The music that I have stored is in a subdirectory of root (Music). The scroll bar just makes the unit flash on and off and if I don't touch a key for about 5 seconds, the whole unit shuts down.

As I've said, I'm a Linux nut. I know line code and where items should be placed. It just seems as though not all files were created/created in the right place after executing the zip file. If I connect the unit to my laptop, I see the drive, can get into the drive and even play the music... right from the folder (Music) in Iriver. The problem is, Iriver (on the unit itself) does not allow me to see those files... MP3's.  

It looks as though I'm missing some files, so I'll just do a fresh upload tonight. I've worked with many open source files before... there just seems to be a glitch on whatever I loaded to the unit.

Llorean:
Have you tried TAPPING the O key, rather than holding it down?

pauly99:
Yes... on my unit it doesn't do anything. It does not progress to the next branch of the file tree. It does work with Iriver's firmware so I know that it isn't an issue with the unit. Like I said, I'll get everything off the unit (minus a copy of Irivers firmware) tonight and then reload the necessary Rockbox files and finally add the music back in as a folder within root. Hopefully this fresh install will take and I'll be a happy camper come tomorrow.

What does the text say?  Or does it actually say, "text"?

Try this.  From the File Browser, press the Power button to enter the Main Menu.  Navigate to the following menu:

Main Menu --> General Settings --> File View --> Show files

What is the"Show files" setting set to?

pauly99:
the text only says text. If I hold down the 0 key (because just touching it doesn't work), it opens up to a blank screen.

Unfortunately I do not have a Main Menu. If I hit the power button, it does not go into the main menu. It just sits at the text Rockbox screen. If I hold down the power button the unit will shut off however. So, none of the other options... Sound Settings, General Settings, etc... are available for me either. Like I said, I did read through the Manual. Something obviously loaded (and I could navigate slightly), and most obviously did not load correctly. As I believe I stated in another post, if I hit the scroll button to either go up or down within the file tree, the unit starts flashing on and off. If I don't hit a key for about 5 seconds, the unit turns off. Really bizarre.

I really appreciate all the help and advice that I've received here. Like I said, I'll completely get rid of all files (with the exception of the Iriver firmware of which I will have a backup copy within the System directory) and I will reload everything tonight. The UMS trick works fine and the zip file that was put in root (and then extracted) created a bunch of new folders. Everything seemed to work fine... I'll be trying this again in a few hours when I get home.
