[06:26:19] <[Saint]> only if you actually tell us what that issue is. [06:36:36] *** Quits: TheSeven (~quassel@rockbox/developer/TheSeven) (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) [06:38:23] *** Joins: TheSeven (~quassel@rockbox/developer/TheSeven) [06:46:38] I put rockbox on my ipod classic 6th gen and I can't get it to enter DFU mode, it just keeps restarting. [06:50:41] *** Quits: steffengy (~quassel@p57B49655.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Disconnected by services) [06:50:42] *** Joins: steffengy1 (~quassel@p57B49A4E.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) [06:56:22] <[Saint]> Well...that points to you...ummm...doing it wrong. [06:57:05] <[Saint]> If one holds menu and select for the appropriate length of time, with USB plugged, it will enter DFU mode. [06:57:25] <[Saint]> The hardware doesn't have a choice about this, and we can't change this with software. [06:57:57] <[Saint]> (actually, I think technically that could be changed, but I'm not sure it would be trivial) [06:59:14] To make sure, DFU is gotten into by holding both the Menu button and Select buttons, correct? [07:00:05] <[Saint]> for between 12 and 15 seconds, yes. [07:00:44] <[Saint]> see: http://youtu.be/Y_bIDtBohnE [07:01:39] I'm guessing it was an issue with the cord I was using, I just tried doing so with a new cord and it went into DFU almost instantly after holding the buttons [07:02:09] <[Saint]> why is it you're wanting to access DFU mode, anyway? [07:04:32] was trying to remove emcore and rockbox. [07:08:00] had too many issues trying to charge it on an ac adapter [07:09:14] <[Saint]> issues such as? [07:09:31] <[Saint]> just hold any key during plug for charge only mode. [07:09:51] Unless I plugged the ipod into my laptop, it wouldn't charge [07:10:35] <[Saint]> I most certainly cannot recreate that here. [07:10:46] <[Saint]> Are these genuine chargers? [07:11:17] <[Saint]> (not that that should matter - it'll still charge, just potentially slowly {at 100mA}) [07:11:37] <[Saint]> Hell - it'll even charge when powered off completely. [07:11:45] <[Saint]> Allbeit at 100mA [07:13:39] i've got another ipod i'm gonna put rockbox on to mess around with more, just my 80gb I use daily so I want to get used to it before putting it on my main device [07:14:22] <[Saint]> if you hang on a bit I can give you a binary with a number of patches, one of which should fix charging detection. [07:17:22] <[Saint]> theseven.homenet.org/~theseven/tmp/rockbox-ipodclassic-with-all-patches.zip [07:17:42] <[Saint]> theseven.homenet.org/~theseven/tmp/installer-ipodclassic-with-all-patches.ubi [07:17:51] <[Saint]> theseven.homenet.org/~theseven/tmp/bootstrap-ipodclassic-with-all-patches.dfu [07:19:25] <[Saint]> Guest68638: ^ there you go [07:20:23] Thanks, I'll try messing around with that more after I get home from work tomorrow. I appreciate all the help! [07:21:03] <[Saint]> Your chief concern, charging detection, _should_ be fixed there. [07:21:39] <[Saint]> But it should always charge when presented the opportunity anyway. [07:22:21] <[Saint]> Its possible that it was only drawing 100mA, which will mean it may actively discharge if the screen is on and the disk spinning up. [07:22:41] <[Saint]> but if idle, even at 100mA, it still should charge. [07:22:49] <[Saint]> Just _very_ slowly. [07:23:56] <[Saint]> (for reference it will draw 100mA and charge even when powered down completely, if the battery level is less than 90% (iirc) - so you could trickle overnight) [07:27:24] I usually put it on charge when I get back home at the end of the day, overnight mostly. [08:30:28] *** Quits: Guest68638 (18bdcebe@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.189.206.190) (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) [12:06:58] [Saint]: hm, not sure if those patches will have any effect on USB wall charger charging, except for proper charging state indication [12:08:07] <[Saint]> Oh. I see. My mistake. [12:09:30] <[Saint]> I wonder if he just _thought_ it wasn't charging, getting weirded out by it going into USB mode. [12:10:04] <[Saint]> That's why I mentioned how to force charge only mode - but I'm not sure if it clicked or not. [13:18:53] * TheSeven hopes that the new builds make uninstallation easier though ;) [13:19:06] or rather avoid uninstallation-related confusion [19:44:39] *** Joins: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@unaffiliated/benedikt93) [21:38:21] *** Quits: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@unaffiliated/benedikt93) (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [23:07:59] *** Joins: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@frbg-5f7319ce.pool.mediaWays.net) [23:08:07] *** Quits: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@frbg-5f7319ce.pool.mediaWays.net) (Changing host) [23:08:07] *** Joins: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@unaffiliated/benedikt93) [23:10:19] *** Quits: benedikt93 (~benedikt9@unaffiliated/benedikt93) (Client Quit)
