My Dead player displays busy watchglass all time ???

sachitmaskey · #1 (**permalink**) 31st Dec 2006, 7:47 am

1.My MP4 was probably attacked by a virus & virus needs to be removed.
2.It only displays a busy watchglass sign all the time.It freezes & doesn't open at all.
3.I even tried the dead player recovery process but failed.
4.I've the right firmware but during firmware upgrade it displays an error"Invalid Firmware file upgrade!"
5.So I even tried installing the repaired firmware after repairing the firmware file in sw1fx folder.
6.There is detection of mp4 as a removable disk but no removable drive is detected in "my computer".
7.At present,it still displays the busy watchglass all the time.It has no firmware installed.If there is any thing I should
do to remove the busy sign into dark screen so I could easily follow the dead player recovery process.Anything that sud be done ???

Plz help me...

sachitmaskey , you may need to repeat the Dead Player Recovery guide and get your player into the ADFU state.

Next, try another different Full Firmware. Then start testing with different firmware dumps.

the_prodigy_man , you will only need 1 compatible Full Firmware and 1 compatible Firmware Dump.

Try to use other versions of MP3 Utilities. Sometimes it might be the Upgrade Tool version that is causing it to hang while flashing.

the_prodigy_man , firmware flashing depends. It can take anything from a few seconds to a few minutes.

But if the upgrade tool freezes for more than 7-8mins, then i would think that it has hung.
