pinas , how long did you charge your player for? Typical charging time varies between 3-5hours depending on your battery capacity. If you did charge for that long period, probably your internal battery is damaged and is not holding its charge for at least 3-4hours as it's supposed to.
Would suggest that you contact your seller asap and arrange for a replacement.

Some things to try:

1. Leave your player charging through the USB cable into your computer for at least 3 hours. Then unplug and see how long your player's battery lasts for.

2. Try charging your player using the wall charger (if you have one), that's just another method.

3. Try charging your MPx player through the USB cable in another computer instead, just in case it's your computer that's the cause of the problem (unlikely but it's worth checking).

4. If you have a spare USB cable, you can also use that to charge your player, this is in case it's a faulty battery.

Try those and let us know what the result is. If after trying all that, your player only lasts for a few mins on battery, then it sounds like the battery is faulty.

Problem was in my USB ports. I bought el. adaper for my electricity because charger was GB standart and charged for 3 h. All is ok.

Try formatting your player. This should fix it.

pinas, Do not try to upgrade the firmware you will kill your player. AS Binh suggested try formating your player with the MP3 Disk Tool.
