dado74, you shouldn't have 'upgraded' your player. Flashing a 'newer' version of firmware to your player doesn't make it better. The original firmware in your player was designed for that player. So.. in essence.. you've just killed it.

Your only option is to find a copy of the original firmware version and try uploading that.

oh my god, i've killed it! my first firmware was pma300_06 2005/11/04 RYJ-3.5.35 2005/12/16 but i haven't it. so, can't I recovery it anymore?

Well.. ok.. 'Killed it' is a harsh statement. To be more accurate, you've seriously 'disabled it'.
An example would be like giving it a frontal lobotomy.

Luckily theres a download section here and if i'm looking in the right place.. the firmware you could try is located here > http://www.mympxplayer.org/firmware-...006-df416.html

Download it and try it.. according to the description it matches your original firmware version.

Good luck!

oh heck no.. don't throw it away! :lol:

The next step is to try the 'dead player recovery guide' here > http://www.mympxplayer.org/dead-play...ide-vt567.html

Make sure you follow the instructions directly. It might just do the trick.

dado74 , when you perform the Dead Player Recovery guide, after the ADFU has been installed, you will need to flash in a Full Firmware first, followed by a Firmware Dump.

You should only perform the Dead Player Recovery where you short the chip, only when the MP3 Utilities Upgrade Tool does not detect your player.

the mp3 utilities upgrade tool always detects my player, so that should i only try to upgrade the full fw and then the dump fw? rigth?
