Tapeworm, thank you very much for your answers, I really appreciate your efforts to help me!
I know that it’s unlikely and maybe it’s a very rare issue, but fact is that the two players both had the same annoying defect! This happens when I press the lock button while listening to a song:
–> The lock symbol appears with the " Press and hold the Home button to unlock" message.
–> The screen shuts off to conserve power.
–> Music keeps playing for ca. 10 seconds.
–> Music stopps playing.
–> Sansa lettering and logo appear.
–> Song continues, buttons are not locked.
When I then press the lock/home button for a second time this happens:
–> The lock symbol appears with the " Press and hold the Home button to unlock" message.
–> The screen shuts off to conserve power.
–> Music keeps playing for ca. 10 seconds.
–> Player shuts down completely, i.e. I have to press the power button for a while to switch it back on.
–> When I switch it on the song continues, buttons unlocked.
When I lock it and press a button while the song is still running the lock symbol appears. And I can also unlock it again within the 10 seconds timeframe.
… oh, and while I was playing with the player to give you all the details above, I got a frozen screen with the Sansa lettering such that I had to hold the power button…
Finally, here are some of my system setting:
-
Blacklight: 5 seconds
-
Power Saver: off
-
Sleep: off
