Hi i'm new here and read quite a lot of posts, so I decided to register and post something for myself and be heard.
Anyways. Im kind of confused whether my player is dead or not.
But I presume it's dead since i posted it here. ^_^
Ok here's the activity before it stopped responding.
I was planning to have a new set of songs for my player.
So what I did, I cleared all the contents of the player using the explorer.
I placed my new set of songs in the USB Drive.
I removed it from the USB Connection and turned it on back.
Upon restarting the device, it just displays a blank screen.
I suspected I deleted some vital files that may be needed to run it.
I tried to recover it using the utilities and upgraded the FW.
Some FW's failed and I tried the identical S1 5.37 FW a message told me the process was a success.
It resulted to become a totally dead, non-respondent player.
So I follow exactly the procedures on the post stickied on top.
It returned to it's previous state as a Mass Storage Device but still no activity.
Here is my player's pic:
My wild guess tells me that aside from installing the firmware there might be a file that I may copy on my player's storage so it will run properly again. Something like an .exe file that my player can execute on it's native environment. Ahmm... just my guess. What do you think?
Players stats:
Brand: SONY (fake) MP4 Player
