dead Glacier clone (eternal hourglass)
 

i have a black ebay glacier clone that was hacked as 8 gb but is only 1 (by flash drive serial number)
my screen has the hourglass that never goes away. all the firmware flashes fail and i get no white screen or black screen just that stupid hourglass. is there something i am doing wrong that i don't even get the white screen?
i have re installed the AdfuUpdate.inf and got it to appear as a adfu device but i cant seem to install the ADFUUD.sys. my computer limits me to .inf files when i try to install files or drivers. Is that the problem?

the board is KJT03-002 V03 2007.05.05
Flash is Samsung 725 K9G8G08U0M PCB0
PCU is ACU 7503
i have gone through all the dead mp4 guides even Alex2bp's glacier toolkit and no firmwares will work.
i have read on here that there is a new version that isnt available online yet?
from what i see i seem to have the same player as Thrashpipe in this thread except he has Hynix memory and i have samsung http://www.mympxplayer.org/theme-gla...eme-df599.html

rumbleman , what the ADFUupdate does is to install a driver for the player so that the computer can recognise it as a player. This way, MP3 Utilities would be able to detect your player and flash the firmwares in.

The problem currently lies in that the firmware extraction tool only supports upto v9.0.43, whilst many new players are v9.0.48 and above (which likely yours too). So you probably might have run into a dead end if you had tried all the firmwares.

I also have the same board. Any luck finding firmware that works?

b4 u get correct firmware, re-solder the flash memory & LCD.

I to am looking for this new elusive firmware also

interuptor0, why do you say "re-solder the flash memory & LCD".
I haven't un-soldered anything, and what would be the reason to do that?

for multiple pins electronic component, this problem normally happened. connection between pins & PCB will gradually open. i think metal oxidize is the main reason.

don't know why but after listening to my glacier mp4 player, the screen turned really weird, like all the colours were smudged but you could still listen to music but after that like minutes after, the screen went completely black and the player won't turn on or be recognised by the PC. please help me.
