Re: Sigmatel recovery guide (Updated)
 

I want to ask if there is tool to extract 6 files from mp3 player because I have the firmware version 002.611.101 For the boot and 002.611.300 for the player

I tryed the solution; Nice Job :)

But the problem with me is the version of firmware I can't find it.(my ship is Sigmatel 3504-06)
When I have flashed my mp3player with a version of sigmatel ship 3504-06 it becomes non sigmatel drive but a GENERIC mp3 player and no MSCN mp3 player so it can't turn recovery mode, the firmware download tool doesnt find the hardware.

This is my driver:

Mp3 player
Sigmatel ship 3504-06
2GB memory
No Display screen
It's like Ipod Shuffle

I have a Proline Digital RC-501 (based on SigmaTel MSCN) 256Mb
It doesn't power on with a battery, so I tried to change the firmware as indicated in this topic.
The change seems to work, but the updater can't check it at the end. And after I disconnnect the player is still dead.
I also tried the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool to format it (as long as I will not use it as a mp3 player now). This tool accept the player after I applied the firmware via the updater (without removing the player) but it is not abble to do the format.

So I'm thinking that the player still work but the flash memory is dead and can no longer keep the updates. But as I'm not a spe******t, Iwant to have your opinion.
Thanx in advance.

WHAT IS FIRMWARE

Re: Sigmatel recovery guide (Updated)
 

Nice guide, thanks a lot for it :wink: . I´d like to add something. In my case I had to upload the firmware with the switch On/Off in OFF position. It was the only way that the upload task ended OK.

Re: Sigmatel recovery guide (Updated)
 

I have an I-TEK 1GB mp3 player that looks much like this one

http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/9716/imgpi5.jpg

When I turned it on, it just said Welcome and it turned itself off immediately. I found this guide and tried it. First, I put it in the recovery mode and extracted it's firmware (it's one of those that contains usbmsc.sb). Then I downloaded the file you say at the begining to update it's firmware and followed your steps. Everything went OK, supposedly.

But now I can't turn it on nor put it in the recovery mode! It just does not respond to anything, now it's absolutely dead!

Ideas? What can I do?

Thanks

Dead 4ever?
 

Hello, I need help.

I have Sencor SFP-3750 (2GB), based on Sigmatel 35xx.
Original firmware version: Sencor SFP-3750, v007.004.260
The player has same hardware as Ritmix RF-3000.

And now the problem:
Player worked well, I did many changes between Sencor's and Ritmix's firmware (versions 007.004.260 and 006.004.260) and everytime the player was dead I could bring back to life. But then I uploaded some old firmware from here (I can send you the file, when you don't have the registration, but I don't think it could help), which is one of the first versions, and since this the player doesn't work with usbmsc.sb (uploaded in Recovery mode) which worked before.
Only usbmsc.sb from v006.003.260 (i don't know the difference between 4 and 3 in minor version) works, but player shows only 1GB capacity not whole 2GB.

Even the Sigmatel Firmware Extractor shows patition(1) as 1GB instead 2GB as it was before.

When I use this usbmsc.sb to boot to recovery mode and then update to firmware, which worked before, it don't work. Neither as usb stick nor as player.

Only Sencor firmware v006.003.260 works a little. When I enable the player, it shows the Sencor logo and then it restarts ant show the logo again and again in loop. But doesn't work as usb stick (usb mass storage) just like with other firmwares.
Every other firmware, which worked before well doesn't work now.

The strange thing is that the capacity changed form 2GB to 1GB. Is not only the capacity of FAT, also the hidden partition (visible in Sigmatel Firmware Extractor) changed the capacity.
Is there any posibility how manage the internal hidden partitions.

I thought that the player couldn't be f*cked up forever. I thought that the Recovery mode (holding the play button when inserting to USB) should load the usbmsc.sb and work independent on what sh*ts are inside the players memory. :x

EDIT:
I found that my player uses 2x1GB chip: HY27UH08AG5M. It uses Chip Select pins to set which "chip" to work with (there is only one physical chip, but two logical chips).
The v006.003.260 is 1GB firmware. It's updater.sb works (it doesn't probe the second chip). The The v006.004.260 is 2GB firmware and so it probes both chips. For some reason the 2GB uploader hangs.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
I have no idea why the 2GB uploader.sb hangs the player.


Please can you help me. I don't where could be the problem. :cry:

Thanks a lot to anybody bringing a helping hand.
