I was wondering if the method above can be used to unbrick my sansa m240

If by "above method" you mean the first thing I did (i.e. buying a new m240), then yes, that will work...
Otherwise, no. I'm assuming that by "bricked" you mean that the firmware (which is stored on the NAND flash) refuses to run, presumably because of something corrupted on the NAND flash. So given that the only way I have found to run code on the m240 via "usb boot mode" (which bypasses the firmware in the NAND flash) is to physically remove the flash, then there's no way to fix its contents.
Also, there is no NAND driver written yet for the m240, so even if we could access USB boot mode with the NAND still installed, we couldn't fix it.
All this also assume you have a "v1" m240.
Nagasaki_Kid:
Sorry to have wasted your time. I guess I'll buy a second m200 hopefully another v1 and use the flash hot swap trick on anythingbutipod.com

A little teaser:
The bootloader doesn't do much at this point, except run the tick counter, display GPIO values, and run a scroll test line up top.
Everyone give linuxstb a hand for his hard work! :)

Hi,
I have a m240 taken apart with the NAND removed and I ran the tcctool against it. It found the vendor id
and device id (in boot mode) but I didn't have a binary to throw at it. Where can I get one that would
put up the simple display show in the last post?
Thanks much.
Rick
