Try as much as you can pressing menu while you plug USB cable.

If this not work... open device and short-circuit flash memory pins with USB cable connected. This always work!... just be calm and do thing with no hurry. Device must be opened by nails or you will damage case.

Locate carefully flash memory, normally a Samsung chip... with USB cable connected run the rounded side of a clip along pins until your hear the sound of your PC announcing connection. This will put your device in "rockusb" mode... then you can reinstall the firmware this time choosing a LE or nonLE, different to the one you install first... don't pay attention to version V2 V2 it doesn't matter for the moment.

Search here for more information of "hardware method" if you don't feel sure.

kevinjkok, did your player come in orange box? If so I have the firmware for this player to hand as I have the same player and updated my firmware fine. Mine came from same Ebayer seller. If yours is in orange box you have a clone vx858le, not made by Onda. If you installed Onda firmware then it will kill your player. But you should be able to recover it.

I have clone VX858 i bought from ebay. i just upgraded to the (firmware 000.017) and it works great with the new oem onda startup and off screen. is there a way u can play music while ur viewing ur pic ???

[ondaclone]

Hi, on my last post i said i upgraded to firmware (00.00.0017). my mistake, it was firmware (00.00.0020). works great with onda slash startup and off screen. this firmware is for clone vx858 with rockchip. anyone wants the consumer and firmware let me know.
