Help Dead New Player

Get the rebate.

will do that blackstar,
but how am i suppose to fix my player? I formatted it and only applied the resource.bin and now the TOUCHPAD DONT WORK,
i dont think a little water ( only a few drops) could have corroded/ruin the touchpad,
could it be that the touch pad is not stable because i "SUCKED" on the headphone jack and usb jack (make it loose) to get the water out.

and where could i get it fixed (costs time, etc)/ or should i just pop it open?
thx

Another question, my player seems to turn on only when it wants to
like when I hold enter for seconds it would turn on like a minute after I let go.

Also, would you guys think that I should exchange my dane elec player
because i am only 6 days into the 30 day guarantee. However, I need the UPC code for the rebate (and the exchange) so I am now totally lost.

Try updating the firmware again because if you have only copied the resource.bin it won't work properly!
Read the FAQ about the firmware update and do as it says.
Good luck!

Ok, I think you're using a "resource.bin" from a version that does not fit your firmware. you need to either:

1. Use the right resource.bin for the firmware version you have (2.004.4 Dane-Elec you said). Search on the forums for the right one, if you can find it. It may not be easy to find, but it's safer to try.

OR

2. *Really* update your firmware. It sounds like you didn't finish the update properly. Make sure you read the FAQ (http://www.meizume.com/faq.php). I think you were impatient and stopped the player before it finished updating - don't do it again, you can damage it that way. Read the FAQ: "6. Let it work and wait for player to turn itself OFF." After you do all the steps in the FAQ, you may need to copy the resource.bin to it again.

I recommend trying option nr 2. Good luck!

didn't work.
I followed the faqs exactly. first (after low level formatting), i dragged both the .ebn and the resource (tried 2.004.6 and 2.004.4, is dane elec firmware different?) in the player. Unplugged, turn off, then turn on. A GRAY BAR was in the center of the black screen (probably the updating screen), then It turn off after a few seconds. After turning it back on, i waitted and then it seemed like it worked, but the only(and BIGGEST) problem was that
THE TOUCHPAD IS UNRESPONSIVE. is this a hardware/software problem and should i pop it open or something (btw im 17 so i have no idea how to fix things). This is the forth day after contact with little water, so i think its dry.
Thx
I'm completely confused?? my birthday present is now ruined

(

btw. i also tried the other method in en.meizu.com, where i just put the
.ebn file in alone first (but after I do that the player is hard to turn on and wont connect to the cpu, so i formatted)

Any way you look at it, your touchpad is FRIED. It doesn't matter that it's dry now - you turned it on while it was still wet and that killed it. Go get a replacement.

It is possible that your motherboard is not cooperating with your touchpad. I have seen these kinds of problems when electronics get wet such as iPods.

kevboss · 06-21-2008

do u want me to pop it open and check???
is it possible that i could send it in for a warrenty but not
tell them that it was my fault (still relatively new, will they notice?)

SteveMB93 · 06-21-2008

Sometime you can tell the motherboard will have this stuff on it. Or the Meizu might have a water sticker on it somewhere. You could try, I don't think it would hurt. But if they won't repair it, you can send it to Meizu. There repair services are VERY cheap.
