MP4 Killed
 

Well I screwed up my player.

Video playback was screwy so I figured I would give the firmware upgrade a shot. Tried it and since then it has only been starting as a black screen. I tried to fix it but eventually the thing stopped showing up as usb storage so I couldnt reload it anymore (just before it did it was showing up as two removeavle drives for some reason).

I tried the fix with the opening of the player and the contacting of the chip, but it only worked to load new firmware on it the first time. Since then I cant get it to show up as a new device anymore to get the firmware on there.

Right now I just wana get a good idea of the firmware I need so I can try it again. Its a MP4, 1.5 inch screen, 8gb. Here are some pics

Hi! :)
Do you know ya firmware version?
You have to take alook on the download area, then you try firmwares of ya version from there!

Re: MP4 Killed
 

or you can get ya firmware from the player CD

Re: MP4 Killed
 

Its on the CD? The full one? Where?

Re: MP4 Killed
 

Try to search there in the CD for files *.fw or *.bin maybe you can find it, if its available in ya CD!

harmony, Some players come with a copy of the firmware on the mini cd but this is quite rare. Out of my 6 players only one has come with firmware.

If it is there it will be a .bin or .fw file.

Re: MP4 Killed
 

No fw files

A few bins, but the paths were
F:\ENGLISH\The Windows98USB drive
F:\ENGLISH\The telephone is originally the tool
F:\中文\MP3电话本工具\电话本工具2

Any idea what firmware would be right?

Okay weirdness, just redid the recovery thing with the 3.5.37v2.1b FM.fw firmware. Still is showing up as two disk drives that are both 8gigs.

Still nothing on the screen, any ideas on what to do?
