USB, Unknown device PID0000.. help!!!!!!
 

hi guys,

So here my problem, my mp4 player broke, blue screen with hour glass, now this wouldnt be much of a problem, just have to upload the firmware, but my computer couldnt detect the driver (unknown device), and i couldnt install the adduf...inf file, because my PID had set to 0000, so after hours of playin around with it, and follwoing some of the guides on here, i shorted out the player by putting the screwdriver on the four 1/0 pins on the chip, this reset the pid numbers to normal 160D (sumthing lyke that), now my screens gone blank, but i did manage to get the driver installed ADFU or a mass storage device....so its now recognised, now my problem is that the usb is recognise, but how do i assign a drive to it (say drive) E:\ , as it says "no removable disk detected" wen i try and update the firmware back to my MP4 player , (also anyone know the firmware for my mp4 player??? by the way see attached picture) i i vaguely remeber 9.xx.50 and XTC-112 ETC ETC or sumthing... Any help would be appreciated. Thanx

amar_q , you'll usually need a Full firmware first to flash into the player, then followed by the firmware dumps. Once a compatible Full firmware has been flashed, the removable drive would appear in your computer.

hi lattesurf, i tried that but how can i, without having a drive i can save the firmware to? what i did was open mp3 updater, opened the firmware file, but tab that said "update mp3 now", stayed unclickable... tried a few dfferent firmwares, no luck

ps. anyone with the exact firware for my player (see pic in first post)

amar_q , when you start the MP3 Utilities Upgrade Tool, does the software mention anything in the beginning like Recovery State?

Re: USB, Unknown device PID0000.. help!!!!!!
 

no it doesnt say anything about the recover state...

Anyway, i've got more info if you need it,

1) Shown on system as a driver simp3 adfu
2) Mp3 player disk manager shows it as not detected
3) Updater actually opens now (coudnt read disk b4) i cant upload the firmware onto the phone because like i sed its unclickable
4) Also shown as workin properly on driver properties
