How do i fix the white screen on my mp3 player

Bob, September 2008

this just happened to me after having my player for 4 years. I just turned it off and on a few times (needed to hold the power button 10+ seconds) and it came back. And as the last poster said, it was after scrolling the radio.

just had this problem. I just left the player on and let
the battery power discharge to empty. When I reconnected it to my computer to recharge, the normal functions were back without any problem.

how to fix my power button

vernon williams, December 2009

I was able to fix the white screen on my player by holding the on/off button in the off position for about 10 full seconds. Once the player turned off I was able to turn it back on as normal, and the white screen was gone. In my case the white screen appears after a specific sequence of events, usually when scrolling the volume button on the FM radio. I have sometimes had to switch to the home screen and select a music file to change the volume, then return to the radio. I'm hoping it's a firmware issue, but I really don't know
