    Messed up m6sp

    Hi, after a couple of bad things happened to my Meizu, I decided to format it by pressing |<< while loading.
    Now the player has turned on, but after the loading screen it goes to a black screen with a grey bar on the top.
    I thought that I could connect it to pc now, but even when I held down Play and m the xp pc didn't recognise it.
    Now it's stuck on this screen with the grey bar atop. No Hard Reset works (held down play and >>| for a minute), no Soft Reset (Enter for a minute) works. I don't know what to do.

    When you see the grey bar, it means you are missing the resource file. Just plug it into your PC normally (when you see the grey bar) it should be recognized. Now just put a set of new firmware files into your player's drive in "My Computer" and unplug your player. Restart your player and leave it alone for 5 minutes. All should be well. Hope this helps!
    If you are having trouble with your player, please visit this thread first and try the steps before you panic. Most likely you will be able to fix your player easily using the steps listed.

    Players: Meizu M6 SP 4GB, iPod Touch 4G
    Headphones: SoundMAGIC PL-50s, Auvio In-Ear Armatures, Bose QC-15s.
    Current Audio Congifuration: X-Fi Elite Pro w/LM4562 Mod -> Mission MS-50 + Boston Acoustics Subwoofer

    Well that's just what I thought too but as I wrote:
    I thought that I could connect it to pc now, but even when I held down Play and m the xp pc didn't recognise it.
    When I tried it wirthout holding down M and Play, it didn't work, too.
    Also it makes weird noises from time to time, I'm afraid that something is damaged.
    It was so hot and humid yesterday that some moisture condensated on the inside of the glass in front the case. I'm afraid this water could or has damaged my meizu player, I'd leave or somedays so that it can dry but I can't turn it off...

    Edit: Managed to turn it off by holding down Enter for another 3 minutes.
    When I turned it on, I could see a short flash of the green screen (no resource), so I thought it might work if I put it in at that exact moment. However it seemed completely dead afterwards, but now, approx 2 minutes later, the screen flashes again shortly when I press Play- but in yellow!
    I jut tried, USB still doesn't work.

    Edit2: I was afraid that it wasn't recoginzied because the sleeve/female connector was damaged by moisture but at least the part of it that runs power is working, I'm not sure if the data wires (/etc.) might be damaged.
