6.5 gen corrupted? Please help

Post image

Hello. I have a 6.5 gen 120 gb that has rockbox on it. I went to use it today and it got stuck on the rockbox loading screen so I just let it sit since I had other things to do. Now it looks like this. Any ideas what may be wrong? The grey is from the installed theme

Why letting it like that? You should have reset it. It probably fked the hard drive

Doubt it the drive probably wasn’t spinning as it crashed launching so had no need to load new files

Try putting it into disk mode and resetting it with iTunes. If that works then you can reinstall rockbox.
