And what I have to do? Synaptic says that Libusb-dev is installed!
Are you shure that the command I wrote is right?

Thanks,

I tried this, but just nothing happens after ' execution started!' .... whatever I do, nothing happens....

btw, my sansa is already shown in the KInfoCenter as:

VendorID 0x6666
ProductID 0xe200
speed 480 Mbit/s

Does somebody have any clue on what to try next?

Mr. Vage:
My e200 was also bricked in recovery mode. I've been looking for a solution to unbricking with no luck. All the instructions I have read say that i should hold down the select button while plugging in the cable, but Windows doesn't see the e200 if i do that. If I hold down the record button while plugging the cable in, then Windows sees that a device has been plugged in and brings up the Found New Hardware wizard. It shows up as an "Unknown USB Device."

When I run the e200tool, I get this:

e200tool v0.0.6-alpha (c) by MrH 2006, 2007
Searching for device 0781:0720 ... 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 not found!
Searching for device 0b70:0003 ... 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 not found!

When I go into device manager, I can clearly see that the address of the e200 is 0b70:0003. I have the libUsb filters intalled. I can't figure out what could be wrong and I don't want to make the problem worse by trying random things.

Could someone please help me with this? Thanks.

This indicates you're in the mode we call pre-boot (as those are the PortalPlayer vendor/model IDs) and you can try the i2c boot rom rescue operation.

Do note that very few poeple manage to use e200tool on windows (including skilled Rockbox dudes), so I would really suggest you try e200tool on Linux instead, and then even possibly with the time-out extension previously mentioned by jdgordon.

Bagder:
and since it is such a grand day, MrH has just released an updated e200tool with integrated i2c restoring abilities...
