Bricked M6

generalnonsense · 07-21-2007

I was attempting to use a new skin with my M6, and through some bizarre series of events, the thing won't start up. Nothing happens when holding down the power button, and I can't use DFU Tools, since even when I hold down the 2 buttons and connect it to the computer, it doesn't show up at all, anywhere. I'd rather not have to buy a new one, since this one is only one day old... any ideas?

You should read the FAQ first and try to reset/hard reset the player.

Tried it. The only response I can get out of the player is by soft resetting and then pressing the power button, which makes the screen flash once.

You might have used a skin not intended for your current firmware. Hard reset or DFU might be able to fix it, but I have never used either of them before.
