I'm having extreme difficulty
When using lsusb in a kubuntu live cd, all i get is Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
When running e200 tool from the download on daniel.haxx i can't get it to recognize it no matter what i do.
Do i just need to get a new mp3 player?
Edit: I'm getting the Bus 001 even without my Sansa connected. also, i am running everything as root.
Windows recognizes that there is a disk, but i can't find it under device manager.

Hello.
I am (was) a happy owner of a rockboxed e250 Sansa v1. Everything went okay, Rockbox functional, all good.
But yesterday, I noticed some files and folders in the file structure disappeared and some songs gone missing too. I tried to find them using the database, but it did not work. Then I booted to original firmware and waited for the database to refresh. Back in Rockbox, the files were found in the database, but the file structure was still missing the folders + files.
My brother has a similar Sansa with a bit newer version of Rockbox, so we pasted his Rockbox on my Sansa - problem solved, everything okay again.
Today, I took my Sansa to school and turned it on there (wanted to listen to some music of course). What did I see? Display black, wheel lit. Turning on - off... Did not help. Seemed like the manufacture mode, when I checked the net... The problem is here: When I connect my bricked Sansa to the USB, my comp detects nothing, Sansa keeps black screen and lit wheel.
Tried all (at least I hope all) the instructions on this site: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SansaE200Unbrick
I am not sure, but I guess it is the end if the device cant communicate with the USB... Tested on 2 PCs.. No response.
Thanks for any help.

Here are the Steps of what I did, got stuck (like y'all), and how I fixed my Sansa e260:
1. Follow the Steps at http://fixmysansa.blogspot.com/
2. If you get stuck at STEP 3 (which I did like most of you) when it says to
Paste
sudo su
./e200tool recover BL_SD_BOARDSUPPORTSD.ROM
Go to File System/Media and see if theres any folder. If there is a folder, then proceed. If not, follow the following steps:
4. Download the I2c-e260.bin file for your player from http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/e200tool.html
5. In TERMINAL, type in "./e200tool init" THEN "./e200tool i2cprogram i2c-e260.bin"
6. When Finishes, disconnect your Sansa and reconnect
7. REDO all the steps at http://fixmysansa.blogspot.com. When you get to the step that tells you to paste "./e200tool recover BL_SD_boardSupportSD.rom" while holding RECORD on your player, your TERMINAL should NOW looks like this:
e200tool v0.2.3-alpha (c) by MrH 2006, 2007
Searching for device 0781:0720 ... found!
Initializing USB stub (4780 bytes) ... done!

Write done!
Running from address 0x10600000
Searching for device 6666:e200 ... found!
Execution started!
**This mean that there is now a new folder in File System/Media (mine was File System/Media/Disk-1)
8. Proceed and continue with http://fixmysansa.blogspot.com/
9. Once you have 3 files BL_SD_BOARDSUPPORTSD.ROM, PP5022.MI4, Sansa.fmt in the folder. Disconnect your Sansa.
10. Turn off HOLD/LOCK and restart, if screen freezes, hold Power Button till it shuts and restart again. And hope your sansa is back to normal as mine did. GOOD LUCK!

Thank you manytimes. We got into the 16MB part, although reformatting did not help.
http://anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33373 This did help me a lot, because the problem was in the daughterboard. I do not know how, but it was disconnected from the mainboard, thus, I now understand, why the player saw only a 1/2 of the memory, or why the 16MB part reformatting did not help... Thank you one more time.
