Installed themes Ipod is now dead

[tneiheis]

So i installed Rockbox on my 30gb ipod video and everything was working great. I then installed the crashbox theme by Sven Schmidt and it worked until i turned off my ipod. Now i cant get my computer to recognize that the drive has been connected or get the ipod to turn on.

help me please

Reset the Ipod.

how do i do this without being able to turn it on?

[bluebrother]

Well, the Ipod has a hard wired reset sequence. You can issue it even if the Ipod is turned off. In some cases the Ipod doesn't recognize its battery level correctly and doesn't allow you to turn it on. Also, make sure the Ipod is charged -- if unsure charge it for a long time (like 24h or so at least).

I had this problem just 20 minutes ago, and i went finding my warranty...  .. I tried to lock, then unlock, then hold menu + central button for more than 7-8 seconds and the ipod will restart.. It was completley dead, but now work nice!
