DEAD iPod Nano Clone(BETOP) 1.8" 2Gb
 

Hi everyone.
First i want to thank you all for a very good site, and especially tadad1 for all his effort to help out people with their problems.

Now to my problem...i recently bought a iPod Nano Clone in thailand/bangkok on MBK(Mahboonkrong).
The name of the player is BETOP, 1.8" LCD(TFT), 2Gb, FM radio and builtin speaker.

The first thing i did when i got home, was to look at firmware or actually theme updates. I found a theme including a FW file, but first i did run s1fwx to backup my firmware.
Then i did the big misstake, i did the firmware upgrade and after that the display turned white.

After reading the "Dead Player Recovery Guide" i opened the player and followed the instruktions about reseting the chip.

The after 100's of tries with different FW/BIN files i've figured out that "Full_1.8inch_9.0.43.bin" and my own dump file is getting closest to a recovery, instead of just a white display with all the other FW/BIN files, i at least get the "hour glass" back....pretty close but not close enough... :roll:


It seems like my dump file isn't complete, se below:

...but atleast i can se its version 9.0.48.

I also found 9.0.48 on a site(http://www.factory-shop.net/index.ph...&articleid=128) but they don't do the trick.

Does any of you guys have any ideas?
Is it possible to merge my semi working dump file with another dumpfile?

Heres two pictures of my player:

My final plan is to buy another one via my friend in thailand just for dumping the firmware, it's better with two woking players then none... :wink:

Please...help me!

Thanx for your reply. I tried this but got this message:

s1fwx v3.1 - copyright (c)2005-2006 wiRe (http://www.s1mp3.de/)

zany, Can you upload your firmware to www.uploaded.to and leave me a link so I can download it. I will try a merge for you.

Here's the link to my dump file: zany_dump.bin

Re: DEAD iPod Nano Clone(BETOP) 1.8" 2Gb
 

Here's two FW files that came on a cd with my player, they are in a subfolder named "AMV format(1.8 LCD) convert Tool and Drive V3.5.0.1"

I'm not sure what they are, s1fwx doesn't seem to like them.

UPDATE_NO-HY512M.fw

updateHY_512M.fw

zany,
This is a merge of your dump with a full version 9.0.48 but I think the fwimage.fw file within your dump was not extracted properly so I do not think the merge file will work but it is worth a try.

This is another 1.8 Full version 9.0.48 but it may not be compatible with your player.

I'll try them right away.....i'll post the result in just a few minutes.

So...now i tried, an this is the results:
your merged file gave me the same result as my dump.

The 1.8 Full version 9.0.48 didnt work at all.

So far the best and closest i can get is:
Start with: Full_1.8inch_9.0.43.bin
then update with: my old dump or your merged dump file, they both give the same result, and thats "just the hour glass"

zany, The current extraction tools are not able to decrypt the fwimage.fw file in the firmware so it does not get copied properly and can not be repaired. s1fwx was upgraded to 3.1 to repair 9.0.43 firmware but still does not work on anything after that version. Sadly until some new tools are available and people start uloading working dups there is not a lot that can be done for your player.

Thats almost what i suspected......maybe its not much to do but wait.

Thanx for you awsome help.

Some more info about my player:

Processor: ATJ2091
Memory: SAMSUNG 637, K9HAG08U1M, PCB0, CCGA75XA

Re: DEAD iPod Nano Clone(BETOP) 1.8" 2Gb
 

zany how did you find the firmware on www.factory-shop.net?

Do you know how to find firmware 9.0.50 to my mp3 player on www.factory-shop.net?

Hey.
Tager den lige på dansk, da jeg ikke er så god til engelsk.
Jeg har en næsten magen til, og mit problem er at der ikke kommer noget billede på skærmen.
Så ville bare høre om du havde fået lavet din, og hvilken firmware du brugte?
På forhånd tak.
Leff

hosenfan...i think i got the link from maybe this forum, another forum or maybe i did a search in google, i'm not sure....sorry.

I suggest you e-mail http://www.factory-shop.net/ on sales@factory-shop.net

...thats the only e-mail address i can find.

Ask them for a link(if they have) to where you can find you frimware for your player.

Leff.....jag har fortfarande problem med min spelare, det enda jag får är "hour-glass" sedan är den död. Jag har testat ett 20-tal olika firmware utan att lyckas, men så fort jag lyckas så kommer jag att skriva det här.

my player is also 1.8 inches and now I think its chip dead, it can't connect as ADFU devide, hix, may be cause I upgrade too many times today (about 50 times).I tried to recover it.
ATJ 2085H
poor me!!!!

Re: DEAD iPod Nano Clone(BETOP) 1.8" 2Gb
 

Unless our players are broken it is best just to leave them alone! I have a dump.bin you can try that works for a ATJ2085H chip and 1.8" screen from this site

phuongzay, This can happen after many upgrades. I think the problem is more with Windows though some members have reported after reinstalling Windows the player has been able to connect in ADFU mode again. You could try connecting the player to a different USB port if possible one you have not used the player on before. If you have access to another PC try that. You could even try creating another user account in XP and try connecting through that.

thanks avionik99, but it's a BIN file, you can see my problem in this link http://www.mympxplayer.org/viewtopic.php?p=15461#15461
I'll try to connect ADFU first, then try your file, thanks anyway, hope this useful, huhu
and thanks tada1, too
I'm going to buy another one, but I still like to recover it , if success, I 'll have two Mp4 and .... make all them die again, heheh
