vx858 clone with screen inverted and mirrored

angelfish62 · #1 (**permalink**) 11th Nov 2008, 3:07 am

My mp4 player is a vx858 clone like many others bought into Ebay: suddenly I was not anymore able to transfer files into it, so I updated the firmware probably with a wrong one and now screen is inverted, mirrored and flashing...!!! All the commands, the icons are inverted as in a mirror.
Is there anywhere a solution, a new firmware to solve the problem? I tried a lot of firmwares found into web but with no success.

thanks a lot

sorry, but if you have tried many so far you will have tried them all, so all i can say is keep looking for more and more, you will hit on one at the end of the day (maybe) its an imposing task but the only true way

i think someone needs to go on a scouting mission and collect together all the firmwares we have on here and anywhere else and collect them all in one thread and then people can work through the list trying each one

there are a few in the downloads here, some on mp4nation forums and maybe some on other sites

then when occasion like this happen it will be easier to find them all

i know a member here recovered theirs from inverted screen (the onlly one i have known t actually recover one of these players!!!!!)

hi guys! but how do you explain the screen inverted and mirrored? Is it possible to cancel or not all the information inside a flash memory when we update a firmware? Is flash memory corrupted in anyway? Sorry for my many questions, but I find strange not to update my minimp4 player. No expert man has an explanation? I still hope every day someone finds a solution...

The memory does not get corrupted. The firmware's display driver does not correspond to the display of the player, this is why it shows up wrong.

Why you shouldn't update? Well, you know, if it ain't broken then don't fix it.

GREAT! THANKS KNOB! IT WORKS! I tried many similar firmwares, but this is the right one: my player is back to the origin and works as the first day... I hope this information is useful for other people. ciao

dod you need to open the player to get it into update mode or did the program work fine for you, what version of the update tool did you use as this sometimes has an effet o the update. well done and glad at last we have some success for people tryng to recover these players
