E250/E250R Charge while playing

<< < (3/4) > >>

Llorean:
Charging has always worked. It's just been much slower than the original firmware. Slow enough that if you cause a significant enough drain (for example having the backlight on, while using a high-draw codec) it might not charge after all.

The basic part of charging is done more or less in hardware, but the software needs to tell the computer it can handle (or expects) high power mode, and that hasn't worked until possibly the recent USB commit.

MarcGuay:
I always figured that because the power display immediately shot up to 100% on connect and then dropped back down to where it was on disconnect that it didn't function at all.

Llorean:
No, the 100% is because we can't properly read the level. It should be replaced by a basic "Charging" animation, but I don't think that's enabled for the Sansa yet.

That gets my vote.

Unfortunately, F1 on the Archos Recorder does not bring up the quick-menu. It enters the standard menu.
