Dead 1.5" MP4 Player.

arish_06 · #11 (**permalink**) 7th Apr 2006, 12:07 pm

I downloaded it again and know it does say 5.41MB. But I got another problem.

When I try to upgrade using the dump.bin, an error occurs halfway through saying something like:

"An error has occured in ....rdiskupdate.exe.
Program will now close"

I guess the dump.bin is a recovery file so when I try to use it as an upgrade, it causes an error.

HereVip, what operating system do u have? If u have windows, try going to the "control panel" and click on "Add Hardware."

Plug ur player in the usb port. The "add hardware" wizard will search for any new hardware and guide you through installation.

If u have a dead mp4 player, then the above may not work. If so, try reseting the player with the "ON/OFF" button on the side. Then hold the play button for about 5 seconds.

Now try connecting to the usb port. If the computer still doesn't recognize it, unplug the cable from the player and plug it again. Keep doing this about 3 to 4 times until u can see the flask disk driver icon in "My Computer." (If u previously had the mp4 installed on your computer)

Hope this helps....

haseebanjum....if u have trouble uploading the firmware, can u email it to me at: arishneel05@cs.com

I can't seem to get the dump.bin to work. It'll be much better if I just get urs since u said it's the same player.

Thanks

Hi arish_06,

I suspect the .bin firmware file hasn't been "repaired" using the s1fwx utility.

Try this:

1. Copy the .bin file into the same folder as the s1fwx program.

2. Run the repair.bat from the s1fwx folder.

3. This should now repair the .bin file and create a new file: dump.bi$. DON'T use the dump.bi$ file as that's the unrepaired file, use the dump.bin instead.

4. Upgrade your player using the dump.bin file and it should work now.

Let me know that works or not. If it does, I will repair it and reupload it.

I tried the repair.bat but it says repair failed:

s1fwx v2.6 - copyright (c) 2005 wiRe (http://www.s1mp3.de/)
repair dumped firmware file...
backup file to 'dump.bi$'...
try to repair firmware...
error: repairing file failed
Press any key to continue . . .

In this website, it says that the dump.bin has games on it but originally, my player didn't have any games. Can this be the cause of the problem?

Hi HereVip,

The .bin files CAN be used to update the firmware of your player using the MP3 Player Upgrade Tool.

What you may have to do is use the s1fwx tool to REPAIR the firmware firstly before using it to update your player. Do you know how to use the s1fwx tool? If not, instructions are in the "Knowledge Base" section on the left hand side navigational bar.

Try running the 'repair.bat' on the firmware (make sure you copy the .bin file into the same folder you have the s1fwx in.

Let me know if that works.

ok thank's for the fw 3.5.35 thats what i need but it steel not work...
what the steps that i make...
the mp4 completly formated and windows can't recognize the mp4 like new drive becouse he's don't have fw on it.
then i update fw from the disk that i got from the saler but unfortunately the version in the disk is 512mb, and when i update the fw in to the mp4
windows recognize the "I" disk like removeble disk.
after that i try update the new version 3.5.35 in to the mp4 but it's show the error that "rapairing file failed" and in the "MP3 Player Update Tool"
that's open finally the .bin file like a fw after, becouse the mp4 already have FW on it (512mb)
and in the middle of the update it crush and say's the FW is invalid.

what can i do?

i using in s1fwx_v30 for repair the update and that's steel not work
becouse of that i say i need the FW like afirst file that i update in the player, becouse the bin file in the first time i can't update and without the fw s1fwx can't recognize the "removible disk"
