hi i have the following mp4 player from ebay....
4GB 1.8" LCD USB 2.0 Drive PMP FM MP4 MP3 Player RSS4
i got a replacement today as i bricked my other one and the guy sent me a replacement one...
i managed to check the firmware on it was 9.0.52 , previous one was 9.0.50...
however it seemed to be working fine and i havent updated the firmware or nothing but as it was chargin via the usb, the pc lost connection with the mp4 player.
i left it off for around 20minutes and tried switching it on. It loaded up with a blue screen and a hour glass. it got to the menu then the low battery logo comes up and it switches off. So i guess it needs chargin via usb, so wen i do plug in the usb and switch the player on the pc does not detect the player and it does not charge all i see is the blue screen and the hourglass and it flashes on and off..
i dont think it is bricked cus if i leave the player long enuff for half n hr unplugged den switch it on it does come on and go to menu but cus the battery is low it doesnt stay on for long.
ne ideas?
quick note: Mp3 player utilities software i tried that and it cud not detect it....also i noticed before it turned of that the battery bar was empty.. how long does a charge usually take? via usb? i also got a V3 motorola charger and that uses the same connector and outputs 5v. could i use that?
