K, so now the SanDisk sansa m240 1GB mp3 player, when you turn it on, it freezes.
I have tried to change the battery and everything and it still wont work. What is happening here? others that have had the same problem. I researched this online and found out that there was a rather large bad batch of these mp3 players shipped in December. they suggest calling sandisk tech support at 1-866-726-3475 for a replacement and getting a RMA number or going back to where you bought it and exchanging it.

Blue ring: Remove the back and push softly but firmly on the Rubber rectangle above the battery hold battery in place and turn on(This is the Chipset For the screen, Black screen Blue ring ) and put the back on.
sandisk sansa e250 starts but then says refresh database. Menu is in back ground. Maybe frozen, and have tried to reset, but still come up with Refresh database.
Reset All NOTE: THIS IS AN ADVANCED OPERATION AND RESTORES ALL SETTINGS TO THE FACTORY DEFAULTS. NORMAL USERS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED TO PERFORM THIS OPERATION! If your device freezes up press the Menu button and hold for 15 seconds. This is like a power down of the device. Once you perform the reset, the adjustments you made during last operation will be gone.....IF that doesn't work try to recover...download the update software and install then lock your sansa hold in the rec key on the left at the same time push the menu/power button this will take you to recovery mode then connect to the computer Star the update software if it doesn't start automatic goto /start /all programs /Sandisk/sansa updater/ sansa updater and start it up manually... follow instructions on the updater and the sansa hope this works.... Please rate
ok , what you do is you pry off the bottons on the front, then there should be a screw. unscrew it. then youll see the screen thing. there will be two metel circals, one of them is probably dusty, just wipe it off and put every thing back together, the buttons just snap back on.
I have a proplem with my sansa e250 after upgrading it. Now I can't start my sansa. The whole sansa is frozen. Just appear SanDisk logo on the screen, blue wheel lite and that's all.

press the menu button on the bottommostlft side,,,and also anyone of the other buttons (say forward button) for quite sometime around 2 minutes (probably less than that)............
then the blue light would be turned off and sansa starts rocking again..
HOLD MENU AND FORWARD BUTTONS TOGETHER....
or as you thought u can let the sansa discharge all its power.
dont open at any cost ,because if its found opened then warranty may be cancelled.
My Sansa has a similar problem. Sometimes when the Sansa turns on (after the Sandisk logo) the screen will either turn black, blue, or black and white stripes. The player still works, but it is hard to navigate without the screen, obviously.
What I end up doing is letting the backlight turn off and then pressing any button. Sometimes when the screen comes back, the display is allright again. But sometimes it takes more than a few tries. Turning it off and on again seems to work a little better, but it is more time consuming.
goes off because the backlight is on a timer. after 20 seconds or so it turns off if no buttons are pushed.
if the player will still play music but nothing shows on the screen, then the display is shot. The screen is not replaceable on these players. sorry, but it's most likely junk now. You could use it as a data storage device still. Best bet is to buy a used player off ebay or amazon.
thanks
