iPOD 5.5G crashes on flac with following errr: 042A2144
« on: March 01, 2010, 05:53:21 PM »
So i bought and ipod 5.5g (V9K) with upgraded hard drive to 120GB however initially only showed 111GB capacity (is this normal?) however after flashing rockbox 3.5 with auto installer and rebuilding database ipod crashes while trying to play flac. I tried only one mp3 file and worked ok so flac only.

About 6 seconds after it starts playing flac and sometimes right a way shows following error: (I can attach a screenshot if needed)

"Undefined instruction at 042A2144 (0)"

Please help. This happens every time. I used search for this error but found nothing. Please help.

I added that file to music folder under ipod and ipod can't find it but it finds other files and albums. ???
It pretty much crashes on every flac file. I tried them all. Should i go to 3.4 version ?

What do you mean "can't find it"?  Did you browser to the folder you copied it to?

Ok. I had in ipod music directory and it would not be found even if database be updated.

Sounds like something is wrong with your files.  If you upload one, you can PM me a link and I'll try and take a look at it.  Otherwise, you can check that you haven't put weird tags on them, see if they play in other software like foobar2000, or check if the official flac tools see anything wrong with them.

So i put that file into folder that has other songs and that file crashed too.
I just tried mp3 and those crashed on me as well. I can't get any album to work! Should i try 3.4 version. All flac and mp3 as well. Sorry i guess i only tried one file before. Also when i click menu to go back and click on playing now it also froze on me. It's random.

Any advise? Should i uninstall and reflash, reflash with 3.4 or i don't know???

Maybe you have the wrong build installed?  If your player was originally a 30GB player, then you need to install the 30GB build.

Thank you so much. I uninstalled it completely and installed 30gb build but also did minimal install so not sure if it was build or minimal install (without games) but i'm assuming wrong build. Now it works how is should. Thank u so much so much.

Any idea why ipod only shows 111gb capacity for 120gb hd ? that's waisted 9gb. I know 1mb is 1024 but that should add up to 117.18G. Hmmmm ???

Some manufacturers define a GB as 1000^3 Byte instead of 1024^3 Byte. 120 * 1000^3 Byte equals 111 * 1024^3 Byte.
