#rockbox log for 2011-10-24

00:00:01lebelliumMy mp3 player is a Samsung R0, the RB port is in good progress thanks to an Italian developer. I actually ported the now playing screen of Samsung and improved it a bit (bitrate + album year )
00:02:17KiwiCamDarko: Did the Clip just die, as in refuse to turn on again? If it's recognised as a drive on your PC, then you should just be able to format it to Fat and just drag the Firmware .bin file onto it.
00:02:50 Quit dfkt (Quit: -= SysReset 2.55=- Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc.)
00:03:12DarkoI tried that KiwiCam at first, I formatted it as FAT32 and dragged m30pa.bin and still black screen
00:03:20Darkoshould i disconnet USB and resolder battery?
00:03:34***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:04:06Darkomaybe it needs FAT system to boot?
00:04:27 Quit Strife89 (Quit: Here we go!)
00:04:36KiwiCamHave you got the correct version of the Firmware? There's an 01 & an 02 for the V2
00:04:55saratogaDarko: you need to follow those instructions
00:05:22saratogalebellium: i haven't heard much about that device lately, who is working on it?
00:06:59Darkowell, the firmware IS right because before rockboxing procedure I updated it with Sandisk utility and it said 02.01.35
00:07:24Darkothats the one I downloaded later from sandisk page for manual installation
00:08:03Darkoi hope it is right, has same name in zip archive clip02.01.35.zip
00:08:09lebelliumsaratoga: Lorenzo is working on. RB runs on his and on my R0. The interface shows up, keys work, plugins work and there is a basic audio support (for the moment 100% hardware volume so much distorsion and hiss). You can follow the progress on ABI but soon he'll update the RB wiki page
00:08:27Darkoand m30pa.bin when extracted
00:08:32saratogais this an App port or firmware port?
00:09:07lebelliumsaratoga: the R0 has a Linux kernel so that's more like an app port :)
00:09:16saratogaah ok
00:09:33saratogai didn't realize that had progressed so far, yeah you guys should update the wiki
00:09:49saratogamight be a good idea to keep in contact with people here working on the android stuff so that its easier to merge your changes as well
00:09:51gevaertsDarko: I've never had to recover an AMS sansa, so I don't know the details, but I have a vague memory that you need more than the OF file you download from sandisk. IIRC you need a larger dump from a working player
00:10:05lebelliumsaratoga: http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?p=580604#post580604
00:11:05KiwiCamlebellium: That looks like a great device. Nice price too. I'd grab one if it was half the size and the same resolution.
00:11:47lebelliumKiwiCam: I could give one, I have 3 R0 among my 30 DAPs hihi
00:12:19Darko@gevaerts you mean that (what you wrote) for this manual copying of .bin image from windows?
00:13:57 Quit [Saint] (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
00:14:37gevaertsDarko: I have no idea what you're asking
00:14:39saratogalebellium: are you working on it too, or just that guy?
00:15:25Darkogevaerts, you said i need more than OF file
00:15:38Darkoyou mean, dd and .bin is not enough?
00:16:16lebelliumsaratoga: No, I don't really work on it, I don't have any Rockbox knowledges, he's the current main developer (but 2 other guys already worked on the port previously) and I'm the Community or Project Manager lol
00:16:33saratogalebellium: hmm ok
00:16:48saratogathey should really post their source and let the app people here know what they're doing or else they may have quite some trouble merging their changes in
00:17:39lebelliumYeah but he was waiting for setting the R0 target before posting on the RB wiki
00:17:40gevaertsDarko: as I remember it, the .bin file you can download from sandisk doesn't have all data you need, so you need a .bin file dumped from a working player
00:17:56Darkoa-ha!
00:17:59lebelliumBefore it was rather draft work
00:18:02Darkowhy dont you say so :)
00:18:19Darkodo you know a place for that on rocbox forum maybe?
00:18:48saratogalebellium: FWIW i think everyone who has ever done that has not managed to get their code into SVN . . .
00:19:06saratogausually they show up with some big mess that no one else wants to touch
00:19:26saratogait works much better if people provide feedback while the port is working so that bad decisions get caught early while they're easy to fix
00:19:51Darkogevaerts this is it http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/amsfw.html
00:20:21Darkoi found this page before, never asumed fot its purpose - now i do :)
00:20:37lebelliumThat was a big mess, now the target is set up, he cleaned the shit and we'll be able to post on the RB site soon and share with anyone :)

00:35:11pamauryinstalling the bootloader is a bit tricky; there are two ways. In any case, one needs to decrypt a valid firmware, extract some part of it, insert rockbox code and rebuild the firmware image. Then either one uses the OF update code (just put firmware.sb at root) or build a not-dualbooting version of the bootloader that gives access to the OF partition and then send it in recovery mode and then dd'it using the firmware.sb file (basically) :)
00:35:29pamauryThe tricky point here is building the firmware image so that it actually dual-boot
00:40:54 Join robin0800 [0] (~robin0800@149.254.61.39)
00:43:18pamaurysaratoga: Currently building the firmware images requires to use two tools: sbtoelf and elftosb, but I think I will write a condense version of both just to build the dual boot image, so it's easier to integrate it into rbutil
00:43:49saratogapamaury: so it would work like ams where you patch a firmware and then copy it over?
00:44:04pamauryyes
00:44:13pamauryexcept that the format is much more complicated
00:44:44saratogamkimxboot :)
00:44:46pamauryin any case you need the OF for the hardware init but you can easily build a non dual booting version of it

05:45:18*[Saint] wonders if the sansaAMSunbrick page should be harder to find...

05:46:58[Saint].Its easy to say now, as, what's done is done and it can't be proven...but, I'd put money on it at the time that it just needed a hard resetr
05:46:59JdGordonholy crap!
05:47:13[Saint]...yeah.
05:48:02JdGordonI tihnk a nice warning on the wiki page (if it isnt there already) wouldnt hurt
05:49:25[Saint]I think the common convention of "crashed==bricked" leads users there. We can't fix that.
05:49:31[Saint]Unfurtunate, though.
05:49:39[Saint]*unfortunate
05:50:42[Saint]The really funny thing is (reading now) the unbrick page fails to mention that to fully recover you need a dd of a perfectly working player's FW partition.
05:51:21[Saint]copying a patched OF there is enough to get RB to boot, but the OF expects more magic.
05:51:38*JdGordon adds a warning
05:52:13[Saint]ah "You can write the whole OF-Image onto that by using e.g.:"
05:52:20[Saint]it *does* assume you already have this image.
05:52:31[Saint]its just not exactly clear about how you need to get it ;)
05:52:36JdGordonit shouldnt be :)
05:52:43JdGordonforces people to come and ask!'
05:53:01JdGordonbut yeah, i remember dding the of image from their website when i did mine
05:53:14[Saint]Yeah..."hey, do you mind cracking open your player and dumping <foo> for me" is a bit of a hard ask.
05:53:52[Saint]JdGordon: Was that enough to get the OF fully working? IIUC, it shouldn't have been.
05:54:29saratogaI'm assuming he had the clipv2 problem where it can't boot the patched firmware
05:54:51[Saint]saratoga: I think it just crashed. And he didn't know about hard reset.
05:55:04saratogadid he ever get it to actually boot?
05:55:05alexbobphey [Saint]
05:55:10alexbobpare there any new interesting android interfaces I should try?
05:55:44[Saint]saratoga: Form the forums...I'm guessing not. Unless there's more I missed from here.
05:55:55 Join ChickeNES [0] (~ChickeNES@128.135.100.102)
05:56:08saratogaif it never booted after he patched the firmware he did the right thing, if it booted and then crashed he fucked up badly
05:56:46[Saint]alexbobp: Not presently, sorry. I need to get my current work on the tracker. I'll remember to give you a buzz when I do.
05:56:51[Saint]saratoga: "Hi! 30 minutes ago I had perfectly working Clip v2, now it's dead. Or it appears to be so. "Crashed" or "Bricked", what's the differece? Rockbox configured and installed succesfully, but now it won't boot. Battery is/was at 100% charge."
05:57:02alexbobp[Saint]: alright.
05:57:02[Saint]So yeah..."messed" up badly.
05:57:15saratogai don't think its clear from that what he did
05:57:26JdGordon[Saint]: it was so long ago I dont remember, but I did get a working clip+ again after doing it
05:57:31[Saint]Well, it mentions it installed correctly.
05:58:05saratogai think hes managed to phrase that description in such a way that it describes nothing
05:58:54 Quit fyrestorm (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
05:59:38[Saint]...it just scares me that we get first posts like that in the forums. I *really * scares me. I mean at least there's no "and its your fault!" though.
06:00
06:00:36saratogai just gave him the benefit of the doubt since he managed to open his player, but after the rest of the thread i'm not sure it was warrented
06:00:46JdGordonI wonder if thats because anyone smart enough to find and follow those steps knows its unlikely we did anything on purpose
06:01:14JdGordonanyone outright dumb will complain but be happy with "hard reset your player" type recovery steps
06:01:38sillytones[Saint]: i have a bricked clip+ −− are you saying I don't need to crack it open? I saw that page and then gave up
06:02:04[Saint]sillytones: It probably wasn't the first step, no.
06:02:04JdGordonsillytones: are you *sure* it is bricked... that you cant get it to any recovery mode?
06:02:08[Saint]But, what's done is done.
06:02:21[Saint]JdGordon: It sure is now ;)
06:02:30sillytonesI just can't get it to turn on.
06:02:47[Saint]the FW partition is now FAT32, she's not turning on...
06:02:56sillytonesplugged in to usb or not. last thing I saw was a frozen screen that I hard powered down
06:03:39***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
06:03:40saratogai don't think it should be possible to get a clip+ into a state where you need those directions without screwing up a firmware patch
06:03:49JdGordonsillytones: you want to talk to funman (who isnt on irc much anymore)
06:03:53saratogaif it stops working and you can't get it to power on its probably just broken
06:04:10JdGordonalso that ^
06:04:25[Saint]What you're going to need to do (assuming its not just broken), is delete the partition from the FW partition you uncovered. And place a ROckkbox patched firmware file in it and reboot.
06:04:27JdGordonhold the power button/switch for a good 30s and plug in usb
06:04:50[Saint]JdGordon: That *would* work, assuming the FW partition was intact. that's past, now.
06:05:08saratogaassuming you've let it sit for a couple days, plugging it into USB should be enough to reboot it
06:05:11[Saint]s/*would/*should*/
06:05:12sillytonesok i'll try it
06:05:23JdGordon[Saint]: sillytones is not the person in the thread
06:05:37[Saint]Oh...wow. Fail.
06:06:02[Saint]That was, a weird coincidence.
06:06:18sillytonesI'd also be willing to mail it to someone in rockbox if there's anybody who'd want a possibly bricked or broken Clip+ to mess around with

06:17:15sillytonesthat's a far cry from 2 GB
06:17:22JdGordonthats recovery mode
06:17:34[Saint]...how the? weird.
06:18:54saratogahuh, never heard of someone getting a disk that size
06:19:05sillytonesJdGordon: is that a good thing or a bad thing
06:19:16[Saint]its supposed to be ~900MB for recovery mode iirc.
06:19:32JdGordonI *thought* that was a good thing, but sounds like im misremembering, listen to saratoga i tihnk :)
06:20:02[Saint]I have seen people manage to uncover a partition of this size before.
06:20:16[Saint]I don't think we have any idea why, or what it is.
06:21:06sillytonesI can reboot into ubuntu if that would help
06:21:07[Saint]Sometimes I've seen people go through the unbrick steps and think they've hit recovery mode but its this 30oddMB partition.
06:21:53[Saint]from memory, and the unbrock page seems to document, it should be ~980MB
06:21:59[Saint]*unbrick
06:22:32sillytonesAt first I thought the memory chip went bad like saratoga thought, and all it had working was 31 MB
06:24:21[Saint]I have seen this before, I'm just nowhere near educated about the target to say what this means.
06:25:15sillytoneswhat do you think I should do from here
06:25:28sillytoneswho is funman and how can I contact him?
06:26:47[Saint]funman is/was the resident SansaAMS expert. He floats in and out these days, Rockbox isn't so much a priority for him any longer.

06:38:09freddybJdGordon: At this point I favor wrong and working vs. right and broken. You outrank me by a long shot and you can get r30826 reverted if you want but I don't think you should.
06:38:36JdGordonfreddyb: hey, woah now :)
06:38:54JdGordonI just want to make sure the correct code gets in...
06:39:10JdGordonI dont think the font_get_ui() call it so bad, but it is in the wrong place
06:39:56freddybOk, what do you propose?
06:40:59JdGordonfont.c should only deal with id's and the magic sysfont. any FONT_UI/FONT_SYSFIXED magic ideally would be handled by the screen_access api
06:41:05[Saint]freddyb: I think there would be seven different types of uproar from..."a few select people" if Jd tried to suggest reverting anything, right wroung or no.
06:41:45JdGordon[Saint]: see the mailiong list how a revert request should happen....
06:42:02JdGordonfreddyb: see apps/screen_access.c screeb_helper_setfont()
06:42:28JdGordonI'd like an equivilant for getfont() which is exactly what you've done with font_get_ui()
06:42:34freddyb[Saint]: Please don't stir the pot right now...
06:44:37JdGordonfreddyb: that screen_helper_Setfont() isnt quite a good example as that was dont to hook between plugins and font api, but thats where the ui font handling should be imo
06:45:13JdGordonalso, font.c should get a font_get_height(int id) function which would remove a good deal of issues elsewhere L(
06:45:51freddybJdGordon: I thought about sticking in font_get_height() myself.
06:46:18JdGordonthat really is a no brainer when you see what calls font_get() :)
06:48:02freddybJdGordon: I have no objection to moving everything to use global_status.xxx or userland_get_user_font() except that it hasn't been done yet and a plugin that asks for FONT_UI and gets a theme font with only 12 glyphs for a timer display is going to saw through the hard drive.
06:48:18 Quit Topy44 (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)
06:48:35freddyb(Each glyph miss can be/ is likely to be three disk seeks.)
06:49:40JdGordonglobal_status.font_id[screen] is set from the global_setting.font filename so that wont happen
06:49:44JdGordonunless that changes also
06:50:11freddybNo. I mean if a plugin or whatever is not updated and makes the get_font(FONT_UI) call.
06:50:29JdGordonremove get_font() from the plugin api
06:50:44JdGordonor hook a wrapper in
06:50:47JdGordonwhich i tinhk i did
06:51:38JdGordonah, no, i didnt get to doing that
06:52:07freddybIt really wasn't clear to me that FONT_UI was deprecated...
06:53:04JdGordonyeah, well I was hoping to finish the work myself...
06:53:28JdGordonbut that is irrelevant anyway
06:53:47JdGordonI don't remember any plugins which call font_get() for any reason other than getting the font height
06:55:09JdGordonrockpaint does some weird/nice stuff, but otherwise all other calls can be worked around
06:56:20freddybI really didn't look but if they want the height, we should give them the right number.
06:57:03JdGordonlrcplayer uses the font* to call font_get_width() which is fine, but that plugin should load its own copy of the user font really
06:57:10JdGordonor a font it wants
06:57:42JdGordonrb->font_load(<filename of the ui font>) will be a noop anyway if it is already loaded
06:59:32freddybI'd prefer to narrow this discussion to just getting the right font index to the callers. The metrics have already been worked out, right?
07:00
07:00:01JdGordon?
07:00:34freddybNot every plugin wants to have it's own font. Most of them just want what used to be FONT_UI, right?
07:00:44JdGordoncorrect
07:01:49freddybSo, if we can agree on some user space (app space?) way of getting what used to be FONT_UI we're set, right? Does global_settings.xxx[] satisfy that?
07:02:05JdGordonyes
07:02:51JdGordonif font_set/get_ui() is moved to apps and hooked into the screen_access and plugin api's that would be great
07:03:04JdGordonthen it is transparent to plugins
07:03:42freddybscreen_access_set_defaults or something?
07:04:12JdGordonif i wasnt at work I'd do the patch quicky for you now
07:05:09freddybI'm in no hurry, if you want to post it on FS that would suit me.
07:05:24JdGordonI'll see about doing it tonight, depends how late i get home
07:05:51JdGordonhttp://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12337?getfile=24204 is wrong which is why i brought it up
07:05:58JdGordon- skin_viewport->vp.font = global_status.font_id[display->screen_type];
07:05:59JdGordon+ skin_viewport->vp.font = font_get_ui();
07:06:22JdGordonFONT_UI depends on the screen, so that change will get the wrong one

10:18:01Darkohello
10:18:16Darkoehat Linux distro to use for Sansa Clip recovery?
10:18:21Darkowhat
10:18:44[Saint]any. Its not even necessary to use Linux.
10:18:59[Saint]the equivalent tools on WIndows will work just fine.
10:19:06Darkowell it is not listend on Knoppix DVD release
10:19:19[Saint]"it" == ?
10:19:19Darkowhat are equivalent tools on Win?
10:19:29Darkodd tools
10:19:35DarkoI was last evening here
10:19:40Darkothats what I was told
10:19:59[Saint]If every standard linux tool was listed...it would be a LONG list ;)
10:20:05Darkook
10:20:05[Saint]and Linux distro will have dd
10:20:10[Saint]*any
10:20:33Darkodo you know Windows equivalent?
10:20:38Darkodd for Win i tried
10:20:44Darkobut nothing happend
10:21:18Darkothis is a command from Linux
10:21:20Darkodd if=orig_image.bin of=/dev/sde
10:21:26Darkoi understand the second part
10:21:42Darkocan you help if my .bin image of OF is on my C: drive
10:21:51[Saint]Ah! you're the guy who panicked and decided to open their player and attempt to "unbrick it", yes?
10:21:59[Saint]from the forums?
10:21:59Darkowhat would be correct sintax
10:22:07Darkoyes i am :)
10:22:08Darkosame nick
10:22:15Darkomy name really
10:23:30[Saint]dd if=whatever_your_binary_image_is_called.bin of=/path/to/device
10:23:59Darkobut how it will know my image is on root of C drive?
10:24:27[Saint]easy, you go to the location of it from the commandline ;)
10:25:01Darkook, but how to do that
10:25:17Darkohow to run command line in Linux? (what Linux also?)
10:25:24Darkoroot
10:25:53Darkoyou understand what troubles me right?
10:26:05[Saint]Look...what OS are you running RIGHT NOW?
10:26:11DarkoWindows XP Sp3
10:26:34[Saint]dd for win should be fine (assuming its setup correctly)
10:26:49Darkoi said up there i tried dd win
10:26:54Darkonothing happend
10:27:09Darkosintax was something like this
10:27:37[Saint]My assumption would be user error, but, ok. Lets try a Linux distro.
10:27:49[Saint]Boot a liveCD of your choice, and come back.
10:28:20Darkook i just need to download it and that will take a while
10:28:25Darkothanks Saint :)
10:28:33DarkoUbuntu is ok?
10:28:40Zagorisn't the question simply "what is the raw device syntax in windows"?
10:28:40[Saint]Yes, Ubuntu is fine.
10:30:07DarkoZagor, are you trying to say if my OF image is on C: and broken Sansa (unformatted) on G: what would be the syntax in dd for Win?
10:31:10DarkoI found WinDD here http://sourceforge.net/projects/windd/
10:31:16Darkowhat do you think of it?
10:31:44Darkoits for people with less IQ like me :) (around 140)
10:33:01ZagorI know how dd works, but I don't know how dd works in windows, since the device syntax is completely different.
10:34:03ZagorI assume "dd if=file.bin of=g:" is not working?
10:34:36[Saint](where g: == "correct drive letter)
10:35:45DarkoZagor I havent tried in Linux yet, Ubuntu is downloading right now, but i won't be at home till later this day
10:36:07DarkoI also found this pages http://www.chrysocome.net/dd and http://www.chrysocome.net/rawwrite
10:36:25Darkoin dd, do i have to define block size?
10:36:32Zagorthis was for windows. only windows uses the colon syntax
10:36:58ukleinekbecause only windows uses (user visible) drives
10:36:59Darkosorry
10:37:20kugelthe first site suggest you can get the device names with the −−list option
10:37:40Darko@ukleinek user visible drives −− but it is not formatted - how it will be seen then?
10:39:23Darkoblock size - anyone?
10:39:36Zagorno you don't have to specify block size
10:40:02Darkook
10:40:17Darkowell thank you everyone
10:40:33Darkowill wait to download Ubuntu and will try later this evening
10:40:40DarkoSee you

11:07:40JdGordonprobably not, but still, is there a list of required fixed issues before we just drop the release all together?
11:08:13JdGordon*if* voice is actually broken I'd say thats a candidate to forget about it
11:08:45ZagorI'd say the pink ones on our bug list sounds like stuff we can't release

20:23:31[Saint]Possibly ;) Step one is, you'll want a Rockbox patched OF file.
20:23:40Darkohi Saint
20:23:50Darkomy guide to heaven :)
20:24:03*[Saint] makes no promises :)
20:24:03DarkoI will try with original firmware first
20:24:14Darkosimple things are priority atm
20:24:39Darkoah if I only read forums more carefully before I rushed
20:24:41[Saint]There's a very high likelyhood (since you formatted the FW partition) the OF won't boot...but you can try.

20:25:41Darkoyou mean it doesnt matter
20:26:46[Saint]What I meant was "you killed the OF partition, so, replacing solely the OF may not have all the sufficient files required for the OF to function"
20:27:06[Saint]This has been seen on Fuzes before.

20:41:40[Saint]Running a distro from a LiveCD really can't be compared to "real" Linux in any way.
20:42:04[Saint]it depends on the speed of your optical drive, and loopback filesystems are really bad for disk IO speeds.

21:34:36bertrikWhen I had to unbrick my clip+, there was a disk the size of (nearly?) exactly the size of the firmware image, so about 30 MB. I still wonder why.
21:34:45sillytonesbertrik: !!!
21:34:48sillytonesthat's where I am now
21:34:55sillytoneshow did you recover from there
21:35:10[Saint]bertrik: yes, I questioned that earlier.
21:35:12bertrikI dd'ed the firmware image to the USB disk
21:35:21bertrikthe original firmware
21:35:26sillytonesbertrik: to the 30mb partition?
21:35:26[Saint]sillytones: has the same "problem"
21:36:35bertriksillytones, make sure you know exactly which disk is the sansa, unmount any filesystem that is on it, then dd the original firmware to it
21:36:54[Saint]The recovery partition should be almost 980MB afaik, no idea what this 30MB partition is.
21:37:25bertrik[Saint], how do you know?

21:37:41bertrikI dd'ed to the 30MB one and that fixed it eventually
21:38:29[Saint]bertrik: the early ams days and funman discovering it.
21:38:29Darkohere is text, nothing alike im afraid
21:38:35sillytonesi don't want to risk dd in windows, so i'll reboot to kubuntu in a few minutes
21:38:47bertrikAlso what I did, was to just bridge the 'unbrick' pin for a short time, only during USB plug-in
21:39:02bertrik[Saint], have you ever unbricked an AMS sansa yourself?
21:39:11sillytonesugh, i don't want to open my clip+

21:39:57[Saint]Darko: Google it. Its not an orchestra command.
21:40:06[Saint]*irc command
21:40:17bertrikthe problem seems to be that no-one really writes down what they do exactly when unbricking, most people panic and do random stuff it seems
21:40:45sillytonesbertrik: i can write what i'm doing i guess

21:42:08Darkoso how to do that?
21:42:08bertrikit should not be mounted when doing dd
21:42:16Darkoaha ok
21:42:23sillytonesi forget how to find the device name for unmounted things
21:42:31sillytones besides cheating and opening up gparted
21:42:40Darkoso now its time to dd' it?
21:42:50sillytonesDarko: you need to know its name
21:43:17bertrikI think you can do 'sudo fdisk -l' to see all disks
21:44:09[Saint]sudo fdisk -l should show all disks.
21:44:12Darkosudo here it is
21:44:14Darkohttp://pastebin.com/MBidsps1
21:44:15[Saint]Bah!
21:44:46sillytonesis your clip 1 gb?
21:44:49bertrikor check with 'dmesg' what happened when you plugged it in, or look in /var/log/syslog
21:45:16Darkoits sdb
21:45:22sillytonesit's probably /dev/sdb
21:45:23Darkoyes
21:45:27Darkoyes 1gb only
21:45:38[Saint]That's wrong then.
21:45:51[Saint]You need to expose the recovery partiron.
21:45:53Darkowhy?
21:46:01[Saint]Not the entire raw device.
21:46:09Darkomaybe its Gigabits and GibiBits
21:46:19sillytonesbertrik: i'm going to reboot now, will you still be here to walk me through?
21:46:25[Saint]If you don't expose the recovery partiron, THIS WILL NOT QORK
21:46:33[Saint]*WORK
21:46:36Darkowell
21:46:45Darkoin windows it was reported as 980 Mb
21:46:57Darko979,75 MB
21:47:12Darkohow to that exposure?
21:47:17[Saint]You bridged the unbrick pins while connecting to USB?
21:47:18bertrikI think I only ever saw a 30 MB raw device, not a 1 GB one
21:47:23Darkono other method that I know of
21:47:43Darkoyes, two small ones beside small chip
21:47:52Darkoi mean not now
21:47:58Darkoyesterday
21:48:11[Saint]You need to do this every time you connect USB.
21:48:14Darkoi think it wont make any difference
21:48:19[Saint]It does.
21:48:31sillytonesrebooting, brb
21:48:32Darkoi tried shorting pins several times afterwards in windows
21:48:34Darkonothing happend
21:48:40Darkook will try
21:48:43Darkoagain
21:49:22[Saint]If you can't expose the recovery partition, which we can't help you with, there's nothing we can do.
21:50:01Darkowill give my best
21:50:34bertrikI guess the unbrick pins have to be shorted while the player starts up
21:51:15bertrikso, IMO, turn off the player with a long press on POWER, then short the pins, plug it in USB with pins shorted, release the short after a few seconds
21:51:53[Saint]bertrik: that's how I did it.
21:53:05[Saint]Mind you...I got a 980MB partition, not 30MB :-S
21:53:26[Saint]This doesn't seem an exact science.
21:54:12sillytones[Saint]: i got 30 without doing anything to pins
21:54:31sillytonesbertrik: alright trying what you said, first looking for firmwares
21:54:37[Saint]Yeah...I'm still curious about that.
21:56:01[Saint]bertrik: in case you missed it, sillytones' device decided to expose this 30mb partition all by itself after a hard power down and sitting a week or so.
21:56:27Darkowell it still is same
21:56:31bertrikwhat devices are we talking about really?
21:56:32Darko1027 MB reported
21:57:05sillytones[Saint]: isn't darko looking at disk size not partition size since nothing is mounted
21:57:22Darkoi did it
21:57:23sillytonesbertrik: i've got a clip+, Darko has a clip v2
21:57:27Darko4 MB partition reveiled
21:57:29Darko!
21:57:37DarkoI used metal tool
21:57:47[Saint]4 MB? !?
21:57:49Darkowhats its name in english... grabber of metal
21:57:56Darkoand shorted nand IC rendomly
21:58:01Darkoand now i see 4MB
21:58:16Darkoyeah
21:58:23Darkomaybe i fried it :)
21:58:49Urnevery.. interesting!
21:59:04[Saint]Never seen, nor heard of, that before. A 4mb partition. The OF would not fit there.
21:59:06Darkohttp://pastebin.com/tN2EgjJE
21:59:22Darkomaybe some stripped down version? :)
21:59:37Darkojust mp3 support, no room for radio :)
22:00
22:00:22Darkoto try another time?
22:00:39bertrikI think we've seen the 4MB disk before, but never really understood what it was good for, maybe funman knows

22:05:01bertriksillytones, you can try powering it down and then turn it on by plugging USB
22:05:08sillytonesi'm not seeing the disk anymore. i really don't know what to do at this point.
22:05:28Darkobut i really appreciate your help
22:05:40Darkoyou have to shortpin it
22:05:42sillytonesbertrik: it never powers up when it's plugged in
22:06:51bertrikopen a separate terminal window or terminal tab and type 'tail -f /var/log/syslog'
22:07:20bertrikin this mode, you cannot tell if it's powered up or not just by looking at the display
22:08:09sillytonesalright, looking at syslog. now should I hold down the power button for 30s and then plug it in?
22:08:14Darkobertrik i also did that
22:08:15sillytonesor just plug it in
22:08:21Darkohow you know if its powered
22:09:08bertrikyou know it's powered if syslog shows a USB device when it's plugged in
22:10:00sillytonesbertrik: got something (pastebinning)
22:10:47sillytoneslooks like a recurring pattern
22:11:07bertrikAFAIK, the most promising method is to 1) unplug the device from USB 2) hold power button for 20sec or so to make sure it's powered off 3) bridge the unbrick pins 4) while bridged, plug it in USB 5) release the unbrick pins after syslog shows that something USB was detected
22:11:50bertrikif you get a 30 MB disk, try dd-ing the original firmware image to it
22:11:57Darkohere it is, shorted pins, plugged and then checked

22:25:34Darkoi will unsolder "+" wire too
22:25:37Darkoand try reseting
22:25:45Darkomaybe it is blocking it
22:26:01Darkoor... i could just try dd-ing now as it is

22:31:26sillytonesDarko: there is, just click on the dock icon that looks like a folder
22:32:02bertrikI can't remember if there really was a partition, or that I copied the original firmware image directly to the raw disk
22:32:33bertrikmaybe the 30 mb raw disk needs to be partitioned first
