Firmware Fix for SIREN / ILO MP3 Player

Oct 11, 2006 MP3 Players, Others Players, Software, Tips & Tricks

If you are one of the Siren or ILO owner, you might be driven crazy about their crappy firmware. One of my reader has got it fixed with upgrading its firmware. He had left a solution on my old post (Siren MP3 Player: Q&A)

My Siren 512MB Mp3 player was caught in a continuous loop on boot up. I
contacted the support department and they sent me a link to the firmware
installer. After running the software my Mp3 player is functional once
again.

Here is the instruction for the fix:


Please connect the player to a rear USB port on the computer. The display
should show “USB Connected”. (If not, please press the power button.)
Please make sure that all unused programs and applications are closed. You
can close the applications by closing as many of the icons in the lower
right hand corner (by the clock) as possible.
Download the correct Firmware

Click Open to initiate the download
Double click on the ILO or Siren folder icon. There will be 14 icons.
There will be a Setup icon that looks like a box with a blue line on it;
please double click on this.
Then click Run – this will open the Install Wizard.
The Install Wizard has the instructions on the screen as you go through
it.
Once the firmware has installed, please click the Start menu, then
Programs.
Look for the icon that says ILO or Siren, and then double click the
Firmware Update to install to the player. Depending on how severe the
corruption to the firmware on the player is, you might have to do this step
2 or 3 times in order for it to completely repair the firmware.

Additional Tip:

The player itself requires a lot of power while flashing
the firmware. We suggest disconnecting all USB devices from the computer
except the MP3 player and mouse; you can reconnect your keyboard once the
firmware has been flashed.

Thanks, JJ Wadas ;-)
