You're probably not here, but the NAND flash chip is definitely an HY27UV08AG5M. 01:24 < mulenmar> I set my multimeter to DC V 2000m -- pretty sure that's 2000mV, but i've lost the manual -- and measured from the pin you indicated to the dock connector. 01:24 < mulenmar> Meter read "065" 02:14 -!- TheSeven [~TheSeven@rockbox/developer/TheSeven] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 02:19 -!- TheSeven [~TheSeven@rockbox/developer/TheSeven] has joined #freemyipod 03:00 < [Saint]> At this point, [Saint] wishes to add that he has successfully swapped NAND chip in an iPod2G...but *really* doesn't reccommend it...for sanitys sake. 03:01 < [Saint]> it was a FUCKING pita 03:01 < [Saint]> errr...s/iPod2G/iPod Nano2G/ 03:02 < mulenmar> Yeah, it was tricky enough just to measure the volatage at that pin, without trying to remove the chip. 03:04 < mulenmar> If I thought my skills were good enough to swap memory chips, I would've bumped my old Xbox to 128MB of ram. 8~P 03:04 < [Saint]> be *real* carefull about de-heading the screws on the metal plate underneath the plastic cap that serves as the hold switch...up the top. 03:04 < mulenmar> I'm just going to wait for whoever TheSeven was referring to as "the hardware guru" to get back to them. 03:05 < [Saint]> Strip those and you'll never get it open again. 03:05 < [Saint]> I have one like that now, :-/ 03:05 < mulenmar> [Saint] I already dissassembled everything successfully. 03:05 < [Saint]> yeah, I know...but, in my experience you only get to do that a few times. 03:05 < mulenmar> And then moved on to my failed, is-now-only-good-as-salvage netbook. 03:06 < [Saint]> though...not like you have any reason to put it back together :) 03:06 < mulenmar> [Saint] Which is why it's not going back together until/unless I replace that chip -- which is unlikely. 03:07 < [Saint]> heat gun, *very* fine soldring iron...it's possible. 03:07 < [Saint]> but, difficult. 03:07 < mulenmar> As TheSeven said, "basically you have a nice little device with 176KB of SRAM, 32MB of SDRAM and 1MB of flash now" 03:07 < mulenmar> I can use it to learn C/C++ on, I guess, and learn about ARM architecture at the same time. 03:08 < mulenmar> But this is really more offtopic than I feel discussing here. . . 03:09 < mulenmar> s/this/that 04:48 -!- [R] [~rbox@unaffiliated/rbox] has joined #freemyipod 04:59 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 05:00 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #freemyipod 05:33 -!- [Saint] [S_a_i_n_t@203.184.0.26] has quit [Quit: Even if you're lying, please tell me everythings going to be fine.] 06:20 -!- mulenmar [~mulenmar_@74-132-43-158.dhcp.insightbb.com] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 06:27 -!- [Saint] [S_a_i_n_t@203.184.1.223] has joined #freemyipod 06:32 < [Saint]> TheSeven: Did "The Hardware Guru" get back to you re: mul-en-whatever-the-name-is' Nano2G? 06:45 -!- user890104 [~Venci@212.233.135.74] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 07:10 -!- [R] [~rbox@unaffiliated/rbox] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 08:23 -!- perror [~fleury@aldebaran.labri.fr] has joined #freemyipod 09:58 -!- user890104 [~Venci@212.233.135.74] has joined #freemyipod 10:36 * TheSeven tries to catch up 10:38 < TheSeven> hm, so the /WP pin is definitely the culprit, not the flash chip 10:38 < TheSeven> and no, stooo didn't respond yet 10:38 -!- [Saint] [S_a_i_n_t@203.184.1.223] has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds] 10:40 -!- [Saint] [S_a_i_n_t@203.184.0.138] has joined #freemyipod 10:40 < TheSeven> [12:36] * TheSeven tries to catch up 10:40 < TheSeven> [12:39] hm, so the /WP pin is definitely the culprit, not the flash chip 10:40 < TheSeven> [12:39] and no, stooo didn't respond yet 10:44 < TheSeven> mulenmar (for the logs): now that you've opened it, you could also unbrick it if you would flash non-working code 10:59 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 11:00 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #freemyipod 11:53 -!- ChanServ changed the topic of #freemyipod to: www.freemyipod.org project development channel.

I've managed to brick my device. ;( 18:22 < Farthen> DarkStar851: you can't brick those devices 18:22 < Farthen> well you can but not that easily 18:22 < Farthen> what did you do? install iloader? 18:23 < TheSeven> what *exactly* did you do, and how is the ipod behaving right now? 18:24 < DarkStar851> I wiped the entire partition map, iLoader corrupted and a restore from iTunes didn't repair it. 18:25 < TheSeven> you're using iloader 0.2.x and it's complaining about a missing or corrupted theme? 18:25 < DarkStar851> Yeah, and there's no "Press ___ to uninstall iLoader." 18:26 < TheSeven> then it's not 0.2.x 18:26 < DarkStar851> I didn't realize you were still on this project TheSeven, I used to idle around the IRC ages ago back when it was a manual installation to make everything work. 18:26 < DarkStar851> Hm, 18:26 < TheSeven> however, you should be able to fix this by unpacking a theme again 18:26 < DarkStar851> So just unpack a theme archive to the second partition? 18:26 < TheSeven> to the fat32 partition, whereever it is. 18:27 < DarkStar851> Well with typical structure, the second. ;) 18:27 < TheSeven> and as this is apparently an old version, you might need to use an old theme 18:27 < DarkStar851> Hm.. is there an archive of archives? Haha. 18:27 < TheSeven> http://dl.the-seven.tk/ipod/iloader/themes/iloader-theme-default-0.1.2.zip 18:28 < DarkStar851> Cool, thanks a lot. I'll try and see if this works. 18:28 < DarkStar851> How would I update to the latest iLoader anywyas? 18:28 < DarkStar851> *anyways 18:29 < TheSeven> see the updating instructions. you can follow them as usual (with the alternative update.cfg), but you'll need to update the theme afterwards (to a 0.2.x one) 18:29 < DarkStar851> Makes sense. 18:29 < DarkStar851> Sweet, the loader seems to be working again with that older theme. 18:30 < DarkStar851> This all started when the file system became corrupt the other day and started going into Read-only mode by the way. I'm not sure if it was an iLoader issue, but I don't think it was due to physical failure as I rarely use it. 18:43 < DarkStar851> Hmm.. I just selected Update iLoader, but it's not doing anything... 18:43 < DarkStar851> (It's been "not doing anything" for about five minutes now.) 18:44 < TheSeven> the only explanation I have for that is the installer file being corrupted 18:45 < DarkStar851> Fair enough, I'll try wgetting the file again. 18:45 < TheSeven> you're using the update.cfg for v0.1.x, right? 18:45 < DarkStar851> Yeah. 18:48 < DarkStar851> Yay, that worked. Must've been a corrupt installer bin like you suggested. 18:48 < DarkStar851> Strange, I don't get corrupted files very often, especially on smaller downloads. :s 18:51 < DarkStar851> The new emBIOS is certainly a lot faster than the 0.1.2 loading method! I should've upgraded long ago. ;D 18:51 < TheSeven> it could also just have been a one-in-10-times bootup screwup, like i'm seeing it rather often with disk mode 18:51 < TheSeven> disk mode keeps locking up before even clearing the lcd like one in three times for me 18:54 < DarkStar851> Hmm, 18:54 < DarkStar851> Any notable debugging references? 18:54 < DarkStar851> Seems like the kind of error that'd be throwing stuff like crazy. 19:04 -!- Dreamxtreme is now known as TheEight 19:04 -!- TheEight is now known as Dreamxtreme 19:08 -!- DarkStar851 [ae743624@gateway/web/freenode/ip.174.116.54.36] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 19:16 -!- n1s [~n1s@rockbox/developer/n1s] has quit [Quit: Lämnar] 20:03 -!- benedikt93 [~benedikt9@unaffiliated/benedikt93] has quit [Quit: Bye ;)] 21:35 -!- user890104 [~Venci@212.233.135.74] has quit [Read error: No route to host] 22:59 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 22:59 -!- clustur [~logger@c-76-127-58-39.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #freemyipod --- Log closed Fri Sep 10 00:30:27 2010
