FWIMG01.DAT
Llorean:
Many people skip over the "Initial Startup" steps at the end of the guide. They must be done that way for it to work.

Ah, didn't see to turn the battery off and on. Everything's working now, just need to try to get the font a little bigger and i'll be all set :)
Thanks again
crunkasaurus:
Okay now I'm starting to freak out
I tried to uninstall rockbox because it wasn't playing music files at all and I wanted to try again so I deleted the rockbox.gigabeat file and turned the battery off and on and now neither the rockbox firmware or toshiba firmware will load and Windows can't seem to recognize the device as a USB hard drive :(
What do I do I really hope I didn't just brick my mp3 player :(
crunkasaurus:
Somehow managed to make windows recognize the device, but I feel like I'm messing up all kinds of things here in my confusion... going to try and reinstall the rockbox firmware and go from there
Okay got the rockbox firmware up and running again by some odd chance. Still won't play any music files and I can't even view individual tracks in the menu, just albums / artists. This thread is really panicked and ridiculous, sorry.
edit: In regards to uninstallation, deleting the rockbox.gigabeat file and rebooting the device does not, as the instructions say it should, cause the original Toshiba firmware to load. Instead I get a rockbox error screen displaying rockbox error: -1. How can I return to the original firmware?
Trying to load the original firmware under rockbox gives me several lines of text followed by the line "Woops, should not return from firmware!" What on earth did I do to this poor thing?
Llorean:
The dual boot feature isn't working right, which is why you can't load the original firmware under Rockbox (and why deleting rockbox.gigabeat doesn't work yet).
Instead, rename the FWIMG01.DAT to something else, and rename the .ORIG file that you backed up to its original name, then follow the final steps of the install again.
