No resource?

you can download Winrar here

http://www.download.com/WinRAR/3000-...ml?tag=lst-0-1

after downloading Winrar(or a similar unzip program) take these stept:

1) install Winrar, follow instructions on screen
2) after installing Winrar go to the DFU file you downloaded and RIGHT click with your mouse
3) the option "open with Winrar" (or similar) will show up
4) open the DFU file with Winrar and unzip it(make sure you remember where you saved the unzipped files, i recommend the desktop as its easy to find)
5) after unzipping go to the file that was just created, this is the DFU file but now unzipped. This unzipped file can be used to easily install the DFU tools like you would install any other program: run install(or similar) and follow onscreen instructions


after that your DFU tools will be installed

search this forum for the DFU tools manual and tips as it would take too long to explain it all again here.

follow the DFU steps precisely!
The most common mistake is that people don't keep the power and M button pressed ALL the time. You cant let them go until the very end

Dont worry your player can be fixed and we will help you out

Thanks for the program. i installed the software, but i get an error. it says : Failed to open file M6.ebn, when I click ok, then it goes to the DFU server program. the "download" and "abort" buttons are disabled...... there is also nothing listed in the "device", "Image 2," and "status" boxes. in the "image 1" box, it says: SST39VF800.dfu, and the delay 1, and delay 2 boxes both have 1000 milliseconds typed in them. the only button that is enabled is the "cancel" button. I also cant find the folder that contains M6.ebn, and resource.bin........ how can I find them? or can I download the files anywhere? Sorry about all of the problems Im having. it would be great if you had a messenger, or a phone number where I can contact you.

dont worry we will get there

you managed to get the DFU tools installed, that's a good thing

now as for the firmware files you need to take 3 steps:

1) download the firmware (look in the firmware forum, pick the one thats right for your player(for TP players take the T versions, for SP players take the S versions, dont mix that up or you will mess up your player

2) after the firmware is downloaded you have to unzip it
after unzipping you will have 2 files left: M6.ebn and Resource.bin

3) copy-paste these 2 files into the folder where you installed the DFU tools for example: C/program files/dfu or wherever you installed the DFU tools

After you put the 2 files(M6.ebn and Resource.bin) into the DFU folder restart the DFU tools and it should work.
Now follow the DFU instructions exactly and you should be fine


However, if your player says "no resource" it should be really simply fixed by just connecting your player to the comp, opening the player-folder and copying ONLY the Resource.ben(not m6.ebn) file to the player and then restarting the player

Use firmware 1.010 if the DFU recovery fails with the latest one.

I just want to say thank you so much for all of the tips to get my meizu to work, I really love this player. Im still having some minor problems with connecting my player to the computer. When I plug in my meizu, the computer seems to recognize the player because a green arrow appears in the icon tray, which usually lets you know that a device is connected, but when I go to "my computer", it has no removable disk icon. The dfu software seems to be working correctly now, but the "browse, download, abort," buttons are disabled, and the "status", and "device" boxes are still blank. I also cant seem to get the player to connect at all when i hold the m button and the power button at the same time....... it only connects when i power it on, and connect it regularly .... please help me! thank you SO much

hmm, maybe i get it wrong, but if you don't turn on your meizu you don't suppose to see it in "my computer" because it's just charging. however if you turn it on and then connecting it you will see it in "my computer", and it is also charging.

Correct, in order to connect my meizu to the computer, i turn it on, then connect the usb cable, and i see the icon where the computer recognizes it, (unplug or eject hardware) but when i go to "my computer", it doesnt show up as a removable disk. it used to before i had problems with it, thats the way i used to transfer my songs, but now, it only shows that i can unplug or eject it safely, but for some reason, i cant find it as a removable disk in "my computer". any help?

When the player is connected and recognised by Windows, what does it show up as in Windows device manager?

you have to wait until the meizu boots up and you can see the music screen, and then connect it to the computer.
also, have you tried it on an other computer? or an other usb may does it.

totallypopular , Im not sure if youve fixed your player yet so ill give you a hand...

Do exactly as i say in the exact order...
Open DFU Tools , If M6.ebn Appears in the box then close the program , if it dosnt appear just say and ill tell you how to fix it...

MAKE SURE YOUR PLAYER IS TURNED OFF...
Now , get your dad or mum or whoever to hold down the "POWER" button and "M" key , Make sure she dosnt let go as if she does it may ruin your player from ever recovering...

Once this is done and held conenct the player to the computer , You may hear the "DUN DUN" noise , you may not- Once its sucsesfully connected into your USB Port run "DFU Tools" Hopfully it will list M6.enb in the box and in the device box it will say somthing (Differnt to normal) , Now load up the player with the firmware (Press download) It shoudl sucsesfully finish , Make sure you do not take out the USB Cable before it says "Completed" , Read my sig to find out more info , I hope that has helped , If your computer does not say "M6.enb" then its your computers fault and not the player , Id suggest trying it on a gfew pcs before you give up incase it dosnt work...

everything seems to be working correctly,but for some reason, when i hold both buttons at the same time it doesnt connect. a couple of times, i did connect it, and it seemed to work, but then the computer would freeze, and then go back to normal when i unplug it, or i would open the dfu tools, and the download button would still be disabled. do you know of anyway i could get this fixed? thanks

just do what i did and throw it in the garbage then go buy an ipod...

they make this piece of crap so you get forced to come back and live on their site crawling around looking for fixes and updates.-

all it has to do is play mp3's, whats so hard about that??
what a piece of rubbish

It does play mp3's but most people are not tech savvy enough to try to perform upgrades on their own on this platform, that is all. No trolling please.

i want 2 know the version of my player...
its written as sn:m6slo4ghciiuj3047
i need 2 upgrade n i dont know which firmware...
it displays a green screenn...
please help me out!!
please send me the link of the firmware also...

Okay...
M6 SL
M6 SL 2.004.6...
Upgrade the resource...
Okay!!
Did you even try looking around... (hint: M6 > Firmware)

CAN U PLZ SEND ME THE LINK....

DID YOU TRY LOOKING AROUND?

Here's the Link:2.004.6 Official Release SP\TP\SL

Make absoloutly sure you use the SL version, as that is your player version. Otherwise, you will get a "bricked" player. Hope this helps!

Thank you so much!
This is so easy to follow, even I managed!
I had to do it a couple of times though (always did EXACTELY the same thing) to make it work, so don't give up!

I Have the same problem and followed the instructions that are given but still it does not work,Can anyone give a step by step instruction guide on how to do this properly???
