Re: Hourglass on fake ipod nano..

Keep the firmware in case you need to recover in the future, and since it works for your player you can now change the interface with s1res and not worry about it being the wrong firmware.

I just wanted to add some additional info for you vhone601

Go to System/Hardware tab/device manager and check under Universal Serial Bus Controllers.

If you see USB 2.0 (HS) ADFU Device DON'T take your MP3 apart and do the recovery process.. You don't need to do the recovery, because the player is already in ADFU.

Simply use the firmware & MP3 utlities below & follow the instructions..You'll have your MP3 9.1.52
up in no time..

I had to find the Firmware from here:
http://mympxplayer.org/full-firmware...152-df800.html

I used the MP3 Player Utilities 4.15 from here:
http://mympxplayer.org/mp3-player-utilities-dc44.html

I used this recovery guide to get ONE of my MP3 player recogonized on my Computer. Remember check the device manager first and see if there is anything in there with ADFU or S1MP3 etc..if it is you don't need to take your MP3 apart.

If the current one looks good and works for you, then no reason to change. But otherwise, look in customization board of this site for more information.

Hello Jason,

Thanks!

Hi, I'm guessing that the extention .fw means FirmWare.

Did you download & extract the 4.15 tool? if so open it and click on the MP3 Player Upgrade Tool

Then click on "select new firmware file" browse & find the one with the FW extention & it should read file & write to your player..

If the tool doesn't operate correctly...your device isn't in ADFU mode or the MP3 isn't recogonized..or you might need a different upgrade tool..

Try the steps that I used & let us know if it worked.

I have a different player here now that I've got to troubleshoot..The other ones are working better then ever..Good Luck!

Hello
i tried the recovery guide but it still isnt showing as ADFU device.After using the tweezers, all i get is a white screen.It is still showing under the "Other device" Unknown device.Was it because my unit is not configured properly with the Removable Drive?Because i tried my Canon cam usb in my computer's port yet there is no F: drive(removable).All i got is the twain driver but F: drive not visible under windows explorer.
I can't update with the MP3 Utility since it is nor detected as adfu device.
Urghhhh.

I'm thinking you have to load the ADFU driver for the unknown device.. not sure of the exact steps u need to take, but I think the ADFU file in in the WINDOWS.. try updating the driver..

I have the same problem your having on the other MP3 Player..will let you know how I fix that one as soon as I figure it out..

ttyl
Jason

Yes i think i need to load ADFU driver.And really don't know how to do it.There is no USB 2(FS) ADFU Device under my USB device manager.Please let me know if you have some solutions..Thanks Jason!
