| 01:13:50 | BigBambi | OK, well check out www.rockbox.org/wiki/NewPorts, and have a look in the New Ports forum in the wiki (and on the wiki) to see if anyone has done any ground work |
| 01:14:04 | BigBambi | RBPFC: do you know the architecture? |
| 01:14:20 | RBPFC | nop |
| 01:14:37 | BigBambi | I'd guess googling is an option, or you may have to open it up and look |
| 01:15:13 | RBPFC | i used google |
| 01:15:18 | RBPFC | and IDA is not helpful either |
| 01:15:34 | RBPFC | it has its very own architecture |
| 01:15:37 | BigBambi | well, if no-one has already done it I guess you will need to open it and look at the chips |

| 03:53:36 | vertic23 | hmm, well how can I see which USB mode is used? |
| 03:53:58 | chrisjs169 | JdGordon|uni, you have an e200, right? |
| 03:54:01 | vertic23 | I'm using the front USB connector - though I don't think my motherboard got 1.1 ^^ |
| 03:54:14 | JdGordon|uni | chrisjs169: yes |
| 03:55:12 | chrisjs169 | JdGordon|uni, i managed to put a corrupt i2c on my sansa's recovery mode drive, and broke it. I've used e200tool dozens of times, but for some reason this time it doesn't seem to enter preboot mode |
| 03:55:40 | chrisjs169 | e200tool init doesn't pick it up, and lsusb doesn't show it as a portalplayer device |
| 03:56:28 | chrisjs169 | kugel and I are talking on MSN, and can't figure out why it's not entering preboot mode |
| 03:56:50 | Llorean | Why were you putting an i2c rom on it in the first place? |
| 03:56:54 | Llorean | What did you do that necessitated this? |

| 03:58:34 | chrisjs169 | i'm not really asking for a howto on fixing it, (./e200tool i2cprogram <file>) I'm just asking how it's possible for it to not enter manufacturing nor preboot mode |
| 03:59:03 | Llorean | And I'm trying to figure out the steps that led up to it refusing to boot, because sometimes a cause is more than "just the last thing that happened" |
| 03:59:18 | chrisjs169 | Oh, ok |
| 04:00 |
| 04:00:21 | Llorean | Though you might want to try to catch gevaerts around. He'd be asleep right now, I'd imagine, but if you can catch him, I think he has the most experience causing damage to a Sansa (notably a c200 though) and consequently recovering it. |
| 04:00:53 | chrisjs169 | I was mostly messing with e200tool's recovery for when the bootloader fails (haven't had much to do today) and one of the times i was in recovery mode I had placed a corrupt I2c on it. The Sansa froze writing the boot rom, and after a hard shutdown, it stopped working |
| 04:02:41 | chrisjs169 | Looks like gevearts usually gets off around 7:30 my time (2.5 hours ago) |
| 04:03:31 | | Part Fewlio ("Leaving") |
| 04:04:01 | joecool | using a sansa e200 on rockbox, is it possible to get it to charge on usb like ipod does |
| 04:04:10 | joecool | by holding menu or something |
| 04:04:13 | Llorean | Honestly though, if you can't get it into any sort of mode where your PC can detect it as a USB device, I can't imagine there will be much you can do without hardware intervention. |
| 04:04:17 | Llorean | joecool: Hold the center button. |
| 04:04:40 | joecool | thanks |
| 04:04:41 | | Join jhulst [0] (n=jhulst@unaffiliated/jhulst) |
| 04:06:12 | chrisjs169 | Llorean, That's kind of what I figured, but I'm just confused as I thought that the Sansa can't be bricked without hardware modification, as it will always go to Preboot or Manufacturing mode if there's a problemn |
| 04:06:17 | joecool | one other thing |
| 04:06:26 | joecool | what is this study mode |
| 04:07:09 | chrisjs169 | I've also (yay, more warranty voiding) tried removing the daughterboard just to make sure it can't try to execute any startup code, to force it into preboot mode, but without any luck |
| 04:07:36 | kugel | joecool: With the mode enabled, you don't skip the entire track if you press |<< or >>|, but rather jump back/forward lets say 5 minutes |
| 04:07:45 | kugel | the time can be specified in the settings afaik |
| 04:08:55 | joecool | hrm.. the dsp really sucks in the sansa compared to ipod :( |
| 04:09:02 | joecool | glad i did not buy |
| 04:09:02 | kugel | chrisjs169: I'm not entirely sure, but I think you should be even able to get into menu mode without the daughterboard |
| 04:09:20 | Llorean | joecool: "DSP" means "digital signal processing", and would be affects applied mostly by the software, not hardware relevant... |
| 04:09:26 | kugel | which means, removing it does nothing |
| 04:09:33 | joecool | er |
| 04:09:34 | chrisjs169 | kugel, AFAIK, manu mode requires a working i2c, which is stored in the daughterboard |
| 04:09:35 | joecool | DAC |
| 04:09:51 | kugel | chrisjs169: again, I'm not sure |
| 04:10:02 | joecool | in case noone in here saw me a day ago... that was 2 days of sleep deprivation, this is day 3 now |
| 04:10:11 | joecool | er night now... it all feels the same after awhile |
| 04:10:29 | chrisjs169 | which is why i was able to get into preboot after shorting the daughterboard on my last sansa |

| 04:17:08 | vertic23 | not yet.. or not anymore? how old is that one? |
| 04:17:16 | scorche|sh | not anymore |
| 04:17:34 | vertic23 | I see |
| 04:19:27 | kugel | vertic23: most of the rockbox targets aren't available anymore. Except on ebay of course |
| 04:19:29 | vertic23 | hmm, I learned now that only very few players are still in active "production" - selling |
| 04:19:45 | vertic23 | yeah, hmm sad |
| 04:20:25 | vertic23 | so I go and look for which one the rockbox will be available in the future, heh? :D |
| 04:20:51 | kugel | vertic23: cowon d2 seems promising |
| 04:21:08 | kugel | that's the only player which I know being still available |
| 04:21:23 | Llorean | I wouldn't recommend the d2 to someone who seems to be looking for an HD based player. |
| 04:21:27 | kugel | but, this one is pretty much the opposite of the M3 |
| 04:21:47 | Llorean | Perhaps the Gigabeat S. More recently unavailable, so you can often find them used or refurbished. |
| 04:21:49 | vertic23 | Llorean: I am looking for a player for my girlfriend |
| 04:22:07 | vertic23 | so ...the player doesnot be that ...expensive hehehe |
| 04:22:13 | vertic23 | *shouldnot |
| 04:22:29 | Llorean | vertic23: Well, you'll more or less just have to search the internet. |
| 04:22:30 | kugel | vertic23: Then I#d recomment ebay |
| 04:22:44 | Llorean | D2 is probably not your best bet, since it's impossible to predict when it'll be really usable |
| 04:23:15 | vertic23 | I did already, Llorean: and I found the cowon iaudio 7 (which is with 110$ affordable) |
| 04:23:23 | vertic23 | 4 GB too - but HDD based |
| 04:23:42 | kugel | besides, if he wants an M3, which has no display, a D2 which pretty much only consists of a display (a touchscreen), I doubt the D2 is the one he searches for |
| 04:23:45 | Llorean | Well, if you're just discussing players not running Rockbox, it doesn't really belong here. |
| 04:24:19 | vertic23 | well... yeah, thanks for the info ;) |
| 04:24:20 | advcomp2019 | vertic23, the iaudio 7 is flash based but it is getting off topic |
