Hi folks!
a couple of weeks ago i forgot my charger at my friend's place. since my battery was rather bad i had to charge it like every other day. i thought i should use the original iriver firmware so i could use the usb-charger mode, but i had problems starting that when my rockbox firmware was active. so i changed the three last letters of the rockbox boot file, just so it wouldn't be recognized by the player. then bam!
the battery was dead, before i could turn on the usb-charger mode!
when i got back the charger a week later i couldn't start the player. rockbox started to load, but after two seconds i could spot a "-1" for a tenth of a second, which seemed quite strange, and then it went off.
is my battery dead? or did i do something extremely stupid when i altered the boot file name?
hope someone could tell me if i should by a new battery or somehow fix the software problem!
