What happened your clip+ maybe it could be fixed ?
Unless you absolutely wanted a new player ?

nothing as handy as a clip + or zip for the gym with the in-built clip which removes the need for silly armband thingies. These devices don't last forever - if you get a couple of years out of a clip you are doing ok - that is consumerism for you.... so my advice is get another one!

What would make the clip zip better than the clip+

not a lot - has a colour screen is main difference. it's replacing the clip+ which is not as widely available anymore. at the moment zip is not rockboxable afaik. I killed a clip before with rockbox firmware updates - it can happen unfortunately. not really the player's fault is it! it didn't die of natural causes - your tinkering killed it!

Have you tried booting into the normal Sansa firmware? You should be able to do that by holding down the Left d-pad button while powering it on.

Have you tried putting the .rockbox folder back on?

Ste-

When booting rockbox you get that message because you removed the .rockbox folder.
You can get builds of rockbox with USB enabled dogy on Windows but works perfect on linux.
Here's a quick idea.
Reinstall rockbox
Put an original firmware update on an sd card. Put SD card into clip+ and use rockboxes file manager to put the firmware file into the root of the player.
Then restart the original firmware. It should format the player and remove rockbox and leave you with a usuable player again.
Failing that check your cables and maybe try another pc make sure it's not the cable/pc you're using that's at fault.

how much would a micro sd card for the clip+ set me back,and should it work?as my clip isnt recognised on my pc at the moment,i tried different computer and still the same issue...
Also how can i put this firmware on an sd card?

Without a pc it's going to be tricky.
Sd card depending on teh size you want can go all teh way to 64gb now for just over a ton.
Can get a 2gb one fairly cheap tho.

Where bouts are you located ?

What happens when you connect your clip to the pc ?
Can you try a different cable maybe ?
