Bagder:
lokasenna, use manufacture mode:

lokasenna:
Manufacture mode is where you hold select while powering it up right? There were a lot of posts so I might have confused myself somewhere. But if it is then I've tried going into manufacture mode but my computer still doesn't detect the Sansa. I used e200tool on linux just in case and the program doesn't detect my Sansa.

Bagder:
Yes that's the mode (I updated the wiki page right now to include the instructions on how to boot into the mode).

So when you do this, what do you see on the sansa display?

Did you run the e200tool as root?

lokasenna:
The backlight doesn't light up no matter what I do and the wheel stays lit as well. Ran e200tool as root as well, lsusb doesn't detect anything which is why I'm guessing sending it to Sandisk is my only option.

jc57:
When my Sansa e250 was at this point, it helped to be able to remove the back cover and take the battery out to insure a quick and complete reset before trying the manufacture mode.  I also had to try this on two computers and eventually a Ubuntu boot CD to get the computer to see the Sansa on the USB port (lsusb).  So, keep trying, you may get lucky. -- jc
