Can someone help/advice me what to do?
The mp4 is like this:

Thanks for any help

If that fails, this is my last idea:

Try to flash this but with S1WFX. You can get it from Downloads -> Tools.

Remember this can't be used without that tool. Use only s1wfx to try it.

Nothing happens

I'm thinking could the battery damage the player?

Yes, unfortunately that battery fail could have killed something in it but i wouldn't be so sure because you stated that you could connect it to the pc and listen to music before the accident. I have no ideas what's left to do, but I'd get a new one if I were you

. A rockchip based player would be much better than this one. I am sorry this didn't fix your problem

That's ok :wink: I could listen to music oven after accident, but just the lcd was white. And now I can listen to music

Please tell me more about a rockchip based players. I would be great if you would give a link to ebay

Yes, Rockchip players are multi-tasking, you can play music and browse the menus at the same time, they are capable of playing quality Mp4 (.avi ) movies) and have a miniSd memory slot (up to 2GB). the music quality is very high and they are stable (no problems with lockups or crashing)
Screen sizes are 220x176 (2") and 320x240 (2.2"), Built in memory sizes tend to be 1GB to 4GB.

Don't know if any are available from Ebay as I try to avoid buying anything from Ebay unless I really have to. There are a few on Uxcell and the prices are less than ebay prices.
In all you get a very good player for very little more money than a cheap ipod clone.

If you want a Rockchip player, I would definitely recommend a Meizu. You can get a 4gb from NewEgg for $99.00. JTC Electronics and House of DAP also carry them, but they are a little higher. Walgreens also carries them, but after reading some of the complaints at Meizu Me forum over shipping and customer service, I wouldn't buy from them.
