Creative Zen Vision 30Gb Stuck in Recovery Mode, Freezes when trying to deal with Firmware
My Zen Vision is stuck in Recovery Mode. The PC recognizes it but it comes up as 50mb Storage Media. When you touch Reload Firmware or Format All, it freezes and you have to pull the battery out to shut it off. I don't know what to do. Charges fine, never said anything about HARDWARE issues, just can't get it to not freeze when trying to load firmware back onto it.
I did the same thing, my unit was working perfectly.
I just read that these players have a laptop 2.5 hard dri've installed in the unit. If this is true, the next chance I get, I will take my unit apart (40 gig nomad zen xtra) and see if I can reinstall the firmware directly. It's probably what they do at the repair sho
ps.
Check it out, It may be worth a try!!!

Zen vision:m, stuck in recovery mode and cant press "ok&qu
My zen vision:m is stuck in recovery mode. The real problem I have though is that I cant press the touch button and choose a alternati've. I can scroll and everything, but I just can't press "ok". Anyone have an idea of what I can do to fix this?
Did you try to revert to Windows Media Player 0 by removing WMP and WMP Runtime ? Then try to add your firmware. It worked for me on a couple of other Creative players and when I was trying to reload firmware, and install the Vision M. Seems to me that I also removed all the Creative software one time, but try reverting to WMP 0 first.

Zen vision M stuck at recovery mode scr
i was having trouble transferring songs onto my player so i followed the instructions on the website about updating the firmware. when i rebooted the player (because it, of course, froze) it took me to the recovery mode and now its stuck there. the player does now say version .62.02_0.0.23 but when i try to do anything in the recovery mode, the screen will flash "firmware problem" then go back to the recovery mode. what do i do now?
thank youSupport told me to reformat, however that gave me the message "Harddisk Problem", so I ended up having to send it in for repair. Hopefully yours will work.

Creative Zen Vision 30GB - How to set IR Remote ON with Navigation keys not working in the play
I have Creative Zen Vision 30GB player. Within a month of buying, its navigation keys stopped working. I took it to the customer service of store where I bought it and they fixed it (their solution was to make firmware update, even though I do not understand how come that can fix this issue). Anyways after another 5 months of not so often use, the same problem returned (key pad stopped working and without it this player is useless). I sent it to Creative and they returned it saying that as it has few scratches on the edges, they believe it has been hit. I never dropped the player and these are normal scratches at the end if you do not use any skin (which I could never find for this player). Btw from my other friend's experiences, Creative always does like this, never considered warranty (so beware!). Anyways now the problem is that I have IR remote for Zen vision but it can not work till IR Remote setting in System->Player Settings is switched ON. And this can not be done as the navigation keys are not working. So please please suggest me some other way if anybody of you know to enable this setting through software. Otherwise this costly player is just a 30GB harddisk for me
Just wanted to mention - I bought the IR Remote thinking to make the player useful without navigation keys. Now I feel like I wasted more money instead of shifting to some other player by some other company with better customer service.

So after trying to update my phone to ios7, it got stuck in recovery mode. I tried plugging it into my computer and itunes, and itunes recognizes that an iphone is plugged in. TThen when I click "restore my iphone", it says on itunes that it is in the process of restoring my iphone. An apple with a loading bar would pop up on my phone and then the loading bar would fill up, and then I would get an error message on my computer saying "Could not restore iphone, Error 2117" or something along those lines. I didn't have the new itunes, so I brought my itunes up to date. Now that I have the new itunes, I tried restoring the phone again. This time, when I plug in the phone, the computer recognizes it and says that its restoring my phone, but the my iphone was still stuck on the screen for recovery mode (white usb pointing at the itunes logo). Does anyone know how I could restore my phone? :/
This reply isn't to shorty2006, that post was awhile ago. This is for everyone that updates itunes and gets an error that their phone is now in Recovery mode.
I've been researching all night and even thought about downloading several different things that were suppose to get my phone out of "Recovery" mode. Then I thought about taking my phone to the Apple store after work tomorrow. I then found this blog and read coltonkj's entry and tada! I took a big breath and hit "restore". It worked, it put me back to the page where you can select to restore the last back-up. Shooooo!!!!
Thank you coltonkj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

My 4s is stuck in recovery mode, and when I try to restore it I get a message that the device is not connected
Hi, are you doing it through Settings or via iTunes? If doing it through Settings, try plugging it in via USB and updating with iTunes. Hope this helps.

i have an ipod touch 4g with 8gb but it is stuck in recovery mode and when i try to restore it an error pops up saying that the ipod ipod can not be restored then the number 1604 pops up how do i fix it
Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

I have an iPad that is stuck in recovery mode. When I try to restore the firmware, I get an unknown error occured (1611). Does anybody have a solution for this?
There is a way to get it recovered from the so called DFU mode. Try to restart the phone while holding the home and power button at the same time. Then try to connect it to iTunes and do the same again. If you try that again till it works you should be able to use your iPhone as before.

Zen Touch 40 Stuck in Recovery Mode During Firmware Upd
I never had any problems whatsoever with this player until I decided to update the firmware. Now it is stuck in recovery mode. I have tried all of the steps listed on the support pages and nothing works. I have tried it on 2 difference computers and the player is not recognized. Of course it is out of warranty and Creative wants to charge just about the equivalent of a brand new player to repair. Does anyone have a solution for this?
I did the same thing, my unit was working perfectly.
I just read that these players have a laptop 2.5 hard dri've installed in the unit. If this is true, the next chance I get, I will take my unit apart (40 gig nomad zen xtra) and see if I can reinstall the firmware directly. It's probably what they do at the repair sho
