Default Re: help with 2"8TFT screen chinese player

Are you able to get a replacement for your new player?
I guess it could be a problem if it came from China.

If not you could try disconnecting the battery completely and leave it off for a bit (1 hour or so ) to make sure the player is powered down, then reconnect and try it again.
Opening up some of these players can be difficult to get at the battery, but still less risky than flashing the firmware, if you can open the player check for bad connections and resolder if you are able to do so.

Problem with reflashing the firmware is finding the right one - very difficult with Rockchip players, you would probably loose your player all together, you also need to download ConsumerUpdate if you don't have it on the cd

If you find your player is unbearable to use, and you want to try firmwares only use ones for 320x240 screen sizes that look the most like your player, but there is a 80% to 90% that you can't find the right firmware and the screen will go blank.

I hope this helps
