Headphone jack on archos gmini 220

Problem: my headphone jack is malfunctioning. Something must be wrong with the contact threads- I have to wiggle the headphone plug and get it placed just so to get proper sound. The jack has always been a bit tempermental, but has become totally unreliable. I have resorted to improvising a wedge and then taping the plug down to keep it in place. Can this be repaired? Thanks, jobean P.S. I agree- writing in all caps is very rude.

I find the ground contact, the first one from the outside, tends to bend. Just bend it back a bit with a small screwdriver (eg. for eyeglasses) or manicure scissors.

Gmini hard disk reading problems

My Gmini XS202s did this twice both time cause the battery went flat while moving files across (I should always charge device while connecting to PC)

First time I reformatted device as FAT32 using fdisk (Windows formatting tool should do same)

Then downloaded latest AOS and copied to root directory. [get AOS from http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates.html?country=gb&lang=en]

second time I ran mkdosfs /media/disk (disk was mount point for gmini). This seemed to fix the device and I lost about 20 files. but better than reformat.
