Default YH-820 won't load firmware
Hi,
I got a YH-820 off eBay, which refuses to boot. It advises me to "Connect to PC and repair firmware with recovery utility." Doing this does not help.

The bootloader is version 5.00JN (which I believe to be the Janus version) but the firmware which I downloaded from the Samsung support site appears not to be Janus enabled. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hey Campingout, why dont you create an iso of your player and upload at rapidshare or megaupload or could be just the firmware that they sent you, please that will be very helpful for all of us.

Install Rockbox and be done. The Samsung for these players is utter crap!

Alright, the wiki now states how to boot the OF (http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SamsungYH92xPort).

I believe the yh-820 I got was formatted to fat with nothing else. There is no OF to replace and the rock box pages are not helping. Basically, this thing appears to be wiped clean. Although, I do get the initial Samsung start screen. I would simply like to get it up and running, with or without rock box.
