    90% Dead M6

    so i was using my meizu m6 since a year and few months ago, in any situation and anytime. and 2 days ago it decided to give up on me... suddenly nothing seems to help. when i try to load it nothing happens, sometimes it shows the "loading..." and crashes, sometimes it goes further, and crashes later... seems like battery completely gone so it wont even let me time to get into the regular screen with the music... sometimes i hold the turn on button for over a minute and nothing happens. point is, the battery isnt dead, actually its full, i charged the meizu for a whole night... it just keeps playing on me...

    i was reading through the forums and saw preety similar problems but none been really exactly what im looking at. also when i tried DFU resetting etc, it wont load it as DFU cause my windows won't find any drivers for it... maybe im doing something wrong but i really need this MP player, and as soon as possible. is there any way to save it?

    Please find an XP machine and follow this guide:

    i read over all those guides, and tried them before postting, nothing of them helps... any other idea rather than throwing it to the garbage?

    What OS do you have?
    "Won't find any drivers for it", you mean windows cannot install the player in DFU mode (recovery)?
    If so, that's pretty normal. You find the special drivers you need inside the DFU folder. (as long as you are trying with XP.)

    forget this part, i tried it a while ago using win 7, this time i went on XP and did multiple times all options in the guide properly ( my meizu didnt get bricked more than what it was, still has exactly same problem).

    i overread on other post where someone had preety much the same problem that they said the li-ion battery just finished it's lifespan, but this guy had his player over 2 years, while i barely had mine for 1.5....

    My guess would be the battery then. Some batteries just simply wear out faster than others.
