Or is my screen broken? Help i jus got it in the mail today... :cry:

unknown, I had the same problem. You need to download the following programs.

s1fwx DOWNLOAD
MP3 Player Tools DOWNLOAD
FirmwareModify DOWNLOAD

You need to extract your firmware from your player using s1fwx as discribed in the Knowledge Base HERE
Do not forget to repair it using repair.bat.

Then using FirmwareModify open your dump.bin file. At the bottom you will see an entry "Screen Contrast Adjusting" Set the slider to 20, then click Apply and OK to exit program.

Now you need to reload your firmware back to your player using the MP3 Upgrade Tool which is part of the MP3 Player Utilities 3.68 you downloaded.

You will find a guide on how to do this HERE

Once your player reboots you screen should be ok.

i did wut u said and it is still the same... i also put the slider all the way to 30 and it worked but when i went to the brightness screen it froze then returned back to its orginal way leaving me back to the start with a dim screen :(

Try putting a CLOCK/TIME in as well.
Some players won't accept all the settings until you have set up a CLOCK/TIME on it.

Try that and let me know if that works.

...i changed the time after i loaded the new firmware and its still the same

unknown, In that case I would contact the seller and request a replacement.
