512MB Samsung Chip MP3 Player - Formated

[rajesh_khilari]

I've bought an unbranded mp3 player with 512mb which has FM radio also, on Ebay.co.in. I've tried upgrading firmware. Initially, When I connected for first time to PC I was prompted to put USB mass storage device CD, it said AdfuUd.sys and MSI.CAB cannot be found. The CD along with the player is useless. I had created 5 folder with MP3 songs in the Windows Explorer and dragged and dropped in the Removable Disk. Having done that, the Music menu on the player showed some garbled language (not Chinese) and then now it states only as 'starting'. Now I have given it in a shop to reformat which costs Rupees.500 .

i bought my player in ebay also. A bougth 1 g player. I have had a lot of problems (restart automatically, loose files,...) so i tried to format. After formating, the player was 512 mb!!!!
I decided change firmware trying to solve and after change fw, the player doesnt work because when switch on, iluminates but there is no menu. I cant change to a new firmware bacause when i try to use "mp3 upgrading tool", i get the message "removable disk is busy, run program after waiting a moment" I think is blocked but the "hold" is not selected.
Anybody can help me, please?

I am not sure I am having the same issues. I did get 2 on Ebay from 2 different Sellers and both have the same issues!!!!!

I'm able to upload songs that have been downloaded onto my computer from a CD. I am however unable to upload songs that I downloaded from Napster. They are both WMA files. So I am totally confused. Both MP3 players say that there is a Format Error. These were made in China, (I believe). One of them did come with a "User Manual". It does call this MP3 an IP 836AR. Not that that would mean anything to me, I am hoping it will mean something to you!
I don't know what else to tell you????????
HELP PLEASE! My kids won't leave my room until I get this done. And 5 kids in one room is a little tight if you know what I mean.

Visit S1mp3.org

Huge amount of info on these cheap Chinese and some so-called 'Branded' MP3 players there...(Even Sony re-brand the ATJ chip based mp3's.....)

Most are based on the Actions ATJ2085 and 2051 chips with Hynix or Samsung memory....

Lots of F/W and Update proggies as well as Forum with How-To files....

I Did The Same Thing To Another Brand Of MP3 Player. The Key To Fixing Mine Was To Insert It Into My Computers USB Port. Opening My Computer, Right Click On The Removable Disk Icon And Select 'Format'. In The Settings For Formatting I Had To Make Sure That The File System Format Was 'FAT'. After Formatting It Would Work Again . Don't Know Whether This Will Work For Yours But Give It A Try.

Yeah I bought my two from Ebay. The first one was fine. 2GB Samsung Flash and so far no problems.....fingers crossed....The second one arrived this morning. 1GB

This is what it looks like. Now, here is the problem. It has 1GB memory.....I have loaded 127 songs onto it, leaving 356mb of space. It will not let me add any more. It keeps telling me that it cannot create/replace this file or directory. I even tried copying through the DOS prompt but got the same message. If I have 356mb of space left, why on earth won't it let me add more songs???

: I bought me mp3-player from E-bay. I wrote to this man I brought from and he didn't answer.
I Have same problem I succeed to format my mp-player. There is standing that I need the AdfsUd.sys but I haven't this one . What can I do?please mail me...

Tough luck, I guess, as neither Altavista nor Google gives any results for "AdfsUd.sys"... (Are you sure you spelled the filename right?)

This should be a lesson for you NOT to buy such stuff from "just some person on the Net": if the device stops working (or doesn't even start working when you get it), you'll have noone to complain at...! Obviously, you got no manual or driver disk or URL of official support page etc. etc...

I'm astonished that people keep falling for these online auctions, only to buy something for a few dollars less than if buying them in a proper shop; or buying some non-brand, cheap junk instead of buying a device from a well-established brand (yes, for a higher price but also of higher value, support and reliability)! (Perhaps, preferably, a "physical" shop you can go to, enter, sort through different brands and models of devices, ask the shopkeeper for his opinion and suggestion, and take your non-functional device back to during the warranty period.) Jesus, people, wake up!

purchased a 2gig mp3 player from an on-line auction, unmarked, chinese in origin, looked very nice (black wafer thin jobbie) apparently with a samsung chip.. loaded about 1.5 gigs worth of music onto it.. tried to navigate through the music files on the player only to find that most of it wasn't there! windows explorer said the files were there.. player said they were not.. blah blah etc etc.. after formatting, reformatting, deleting files, adding files and so forth, i came to the conclusion that, although firmware(?) told both myself and my pc that the capacity was 2 gigs, it was in fact only 512 megs.. great.. after having walked away for a few hours and then come back to it, it will now only accept any sort of file transfer after formatting - it will do this every time - only to find now that it has magically transfomed itself into a 2 meg player which is good really because who wants to waste their life listening to stupid music when theirs the washing up to do... ??

[pschitnis]

guys I have the elusive ADFUUD file. Please see attachment for more info. Send me your email address at pschitnis**********com so that I can send you more info to revive that "stupid" mp3 player. Please note that when you load music, you must leave atleast 2 to 3 MB free for the player to operate well. Otherwise it will hang. Incase this happens, attach it to a PC and delete files.

[Joe Forster/STA]

Can you, please, post that information here instead? Also, if you zip up the necessary file(s), you can attach them to your post. (If it doesn't work, contact me and I'll try to help with adding the attachment.)
