toshiba F40 questions
1yen:
Hi all,
new poster and new rockbox user...
Had some questions about rockbox on the toshiba (not a good forum searcher, couldn't find my answers)
1) Are the buttons customizable? Like can I assign certain functions to the buttons on the players?
2) Can I charge the battery using usb? Can I use the player while it is usb charging?
Those are the main things I haven't found on the forums...other questions I had seem to be answered with appropriate patches (which I have not tried yet...still getting used to RB).
Also, just thought I would comment that I found two conflicting RB installation guides for the toshiba players from this site. One works and one doesn't...
thanks!
edit: xlarge, you are absolutely right...
I could not get a working installation following the pdf manual (http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-gigabeatf.pdf)
I got it to work following directions from here http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GigabeatFXPort#Installation_Instructions

If you'd really want to help you would link to those different installation instructions.

I'm not 100% sure, so hopefully someone else will confirm, but I believe the answers to your questions are:
1) No.
2) Yes (if you turn on the "Charge During USB Connection" setting), No.

They're not customizable, but if you wanted the feature (and had the programming skills) you could write a patch to allow this.

No. You can charge WHILE transferring with USB, but you cannot charge FROM USB.
edit: deeper digging suggests that while it charges from USB, the charge screen doesn't show up.
Llorean:
You can charge from USB just fine. Hold MENU down while plugging in the USB cable, and you can charge from USB while listening to music.
