"For all those who had problems with this player"

by HerreraE on November 17, 2005

Pros: none, its perfect when it works

Cons: Its a great player
Summary: OK, for all those who had "Internal Memory Unknown format..." Issue, try this, wich really works:
Download the firmware of the player:
http://broadband.motorola.com/consumers/support/default.asp?SupportSection=DigitalAudio
-Then, plug the USB cable to the player and to the USB port.
-THen, turn off the player, and press the volume selector and the "cursor control" both at the same time, and keep them holded, and the turn on the player (an "UPGRADER" text will be shown in the display)...
When the "UPGRADER" signal its shown in the display, release the buttons and run the firmware .exe, and let it work...
Thats all...your player is alive again.

Hello to all!
Im glad to see that my tip was helpfull to you people. I think that for every MP3 theres some emergency procedure.
Some months ago, I had another problem with my M25 player, and the Motorola Support Team told me another way to give life again to the M25.
The problem happend when I was transferring songs to the internal memory and it run out of space. This time, the player was really dead, no error messages, no turning on, nothing.
I sent an email to M.S.T and they told me that I had to take off the battery, unplug the SD card (if it was present in the player when the error happened) and leave the player to rest for about two hours (the player makes and internal reformatting, they told me)...So I did that, and voila! the player was alive again
Cheers!

Thank you for submitting your feedback!

I am very greatful for this information. I thought that I was going to be in the market for another player, even though I do like this one very much. This advice really worked.
