Hi, you all
I have also one of these
so called 8GB mp4 Glacier player, and I also experienced the hourglass frozen display.
I followed the directions given by Jim, but the result has been aweful.
At first everything was OK, I installed a proper adfuupdate file and I managed to have the player recognised as an ADFU device. Then I used MP3 Player Upgrade Tool for installing a new firmware, using the uxcell files.
First I tried with v3. After waiting all the recommended times all I got was a ligthed blank screen.
Then I tried with v2, which was not accepted as a suitable firmware by Upgrade Tool.
Eventually I tried with v1, and this was even worse, since I got again a lighted blank screen but the player is not recognized anymore when I connect it to my PC, not even as an USB device.
So now it looks like I should try the pin shortening trick, buy I don't feel very eager to, first because my memory chip is installed upside down compared to the one shown in the picture, so I'n mot sure of what pins should I sorten, and then because even if I succeeded having the player recognized, I have no firmware to install on it
