Sansa E200 Bricked by Recovery Mode

<< < (20/46) > >>

Lue:
How I have to modify the command to build the e200tool with the files in the correct folder?

At what a kind of file i have to store the makefile?

Thank you!

Lue

2. did you do the i2c bootrom recovery procedure?

Badger: When I removed my battery, it says I have a c200.  I tried that ROM file which is the pribootLoader.rom, however when using it, I never got the 16M disk after running the recover command.  I did get the 16M disk when using the other ROM, BL_SD_boardSupportSD.rom.

However, I think I was confused.  I didn't know I had to copy the .ROM file to the 16M disk along with the mi4 file.  I thougth using the recover command installed the firmware.

I will try again tonight.

1. I'm not Badger

2. Don't try this. The instructions and the i2c rom dump is the for e200 model, and you would very much risk bricking your player if you try this on a c200.

3. Really, if the recover approach (with the c200 bootloader rom) doesn't heal your player, then  we have no known way to repair it. But then again, this forum thread is for and about Rockbox on E200 and you have neither.

Brambo:
Thanks for all the reactions, I'm a bit further now!  :)

I did everything as told by Lue to do on Ubuntu, but I'm stuck at this point:

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 ... found!
Initializing USB stub (3460 bytes) ... done!
Writing 'BL_SD_boardSupportSD.rom' to address 0x10600000
Searching for device 6666:e200 ... 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 not found!

I tried connecting the sansa with every possible key combinations, but every time I'm stuck at this point...
After this line: "Writing 'BL_SD_boardSupportSD.rom' to address 0x10600000"
the device immediately disappears from 'Device Manager' ... very strange I think... it gets stranger now I see that this happens not always but sometimes...

Bagder, you already linked travisty (with the same problem) to the e200tool page, for the i2c recovery instructions... but I read there that the first thing to do is to get in recovery mode.. but how to get there? I think I only get into pre-boot mode....

Does someone know the solution or how to get further?

Lue:
could someone may help me by my problems as well?

Thank you!

Lue  ;)
