When I start playing a song, my Clip Plus locks.  I press and hold the home key, and a different screen appears for an instant, then locks again. I tried reformatting, and then reinstalling the firmware, but the problem is not fixed.  Anything I can do, or is it "broken"?  Thanks

Stock or rockbox?

Stock. But, I did put Rockbox on it a while ago, but for my purposes preferred the stock.  I thought I had removed all of the Rockbox. I used the uninstall, then manually put the firmware on the clip.

Have you tried rolling back to an older firmware? And then updating from that? Or just using an older firmware and see how it goes. I doubt very much your Clip+ is broken as everything seems to still work except for the lock screen. It sounds like a firmware problem.

I installed 1.0.09A, reformatted, reinstalled, added new songs, and still the same problem.  The clip unlocks for at most 1 second or so, and then locks again.  I'll reinstall rockbox and see if that works, but I it looks like it won't be fixed.  Anything else I should try?
