Don’t despair, I’m sure there’s a reasonable explanation and easy fix; having said that (Curb Your Enthusiasm, anyone?) I’m not the one knowledgeable enough who can help you. I took the risk and loaded Rockbox to my Clip+. After some serious pdf Rockbox manual and website reading and minor install complications, viola it’s locked and loaded. If anyone has simple install questions I may be able to help, just post on this forum. Good luck.
at the moment i am despairing but hopefully someone can suggest soemthing that will work to bring my clip v2 back to life. i still have my clip+ though so I am not stuck. i really don’t know what happened to render it non-functional.

If you unplug and replug the headphones do you hear a click sound? If so, it may just have crashed with the screen off. The clipv2 seems to do that from time to time.
The same just happened to me. I got a V2 Clip too.
I used ‘Complete installation’ with Rockbox Utility (Windows Xp) than pulled it off from the USB cable. It booted with the OF. I turned it off and since than it’s dead. Can’t turn it on and nothing happens when I plug it to the USB.
i used the installer downloaded from the rosckbox website. At first it would not go because of a lack of space on the player. I deleted a bunhc of music and then reran the loader. It seemed to work…but the player was dead after.

If you have not yet sought assistance at the Rockbox.org forums, you may want to do so.
yers I have posted there also and the suggestions on what to try were similar to this one. Really my clip refuses to come back to life…the firmware upgrade went haywire somehow.
Same here…the player is dead in the water. There seems to be nothing left to try.
Hmm now it works. I let it rest for half a day and I could finally turn it on. It said low battery and turned off and finally I could charge it with the USB. Why I don’t understand what happened is because before all this happened the battery was indicated to be full.
And finally Rockbox is working as well. I love the wide range of sound setting options.

Hope you’ll get lucky too.
myself included. You simply left it sitting for half a day?

I had a Sony player that I thought I had bricked, and the same kind of thing happened…I tried plugging it in one last time before I was going to send it back, two days later, and about 15 minutes later, I saw it light up out of the corner of my eye, and the battery was almost dead. Left it to charge the rest of the way, and it was fine after that. So maybe that will be the answer for you too.
