Ugly C260?

accatasta · 09-29-2007

After one day checking my Teclast C230 NOCI taking form Ebay seller, my impressions are totally negative.

Thanx to this precious forum, I've learn a lot about Teclast, even in upgrading firmware, and all goes fine at first shoot.

But now, as before unpgrading, my Teclast seems totally useless to me. I ask some help to fix some trobleshooting I've found in it.

1 - Lock procedure was totally inefficient (press play/pause+shut dow btn). My player goes in pause mode and Eq preset changes.

2 - Extract from manual:"Power Off:
a. In Play state: short press -play/pause- to pause, further press -play/pause- for 3 seconds to power off."
False as in original firwmare as in all firmware I've tried.

IMPORTANT
3 - The player reset the current track when I power off, so I've to start again when I power on. (This is a really inefficient lack- due this I've discarded a lot of players).

4 - Firmware versions 1.07 and 1.08 are unable to handle the player's memory capacity.

These are my first impressions about this player. I hope somebody can give me the answers ti fix these really important troubles.

Last: sorry for my English... ;-)

accatasta...
First... it's not wise to judge a player in the first 48 hours... there is too much anxiety to do this objectively.
Second... this is even less recommendable when the device sports thermal buttons like C260 has... to deal with this kind of controls requires some skill that a newbie doesn't have.
Most of your complains comes from the fact that you compare buttons against the more sophisticated thermal keys.
For me hold button work fantastically.
Design of Teclast C260 is elegant and slick
Teclast gives a awesome support to its products... I've installed in my devcie lots of skins that make it look wonderfully.
In this case accatasta... after this initial troubles you better return the C260 to the supplier and look for another device... you simply wasn't the person to enjoy a well designed and lovely player.
Sorry for you!!
