Dead 1.5" MP4 Player.

#1 (**permalink**) 5th Apr 2006, 12:14 pm

Hi,
I have this type of 1.5" mp4 player (s1 mp3):

http://cgi.ebay.com/512MB-MP3-MP4-1-5LCD-2...1QQcmdZViewItem

I guess I upgraded it with the wrong player and all I get is a dead blue screen. :cry:

I cannot recover the old firmware either using the upgrade tool in mp3 utilities.

ops:

My original version was 3.2.16 Wilson Co Ltd. and I was only upgrading with another 3.2.16 version. :?:

Any idea what went wrong?

I also tried a bunch of other firmwares...version
3.2.13, and other 3.2.16 versions but none work :!:

I also tried dump.bin from this site but there seems to be something wrong with it. It is supposed to be something like 10 megabytes but when
I download the bin file, it says the size is only like 6kb!

Anyone know what type my player is? Type A?B?C?

Where can I find I firmware that will work or how do I recover my old one?

Thanx :roll:

Hi Arishneel,

I have a player which looks the same as your player. However using the s1fwx, it doesn't pick up the player, so it looks like th one I have is using a different solution which the s1fwx can't detect.

If anyone can upload a firmware for this player and help Arishneel, that would be great.

Thanks for the link haseebanjum but that's the dump.bin I was talking about earlier. It doesn't seem to work with my player.

By the way, I got it for $95 US on ebay and the seller unregistered from ebay (took off) so i can't get help from him.

If only I had backed up my original firmware....

HI arish_06,

I tested the firmware from: http://www.mympxplayer.com/dload.php...ile&file_id=46 and I can download the full 5.41MB fine.

Can you try download it again and see what happens?

yes, i downloaded the firmware too from the link. it should be 5.41 mb. (try downloaded using getright if there's a problem). If it still doesnt work, i'll upload my firmware (which is 1.something MB zipped). try downloading again now and tell me if it works.
