This is nonsense. Reset is a hardware function. It's tricky sometimes but it DOES work. If not your hardware is broken.

drcos:
Actually, the whole reset/won't reset thing is a non issue at this point.

I was pointing out that the mini 2G with CF card would go smoothly into USB mode with 18724, and would NOT with 18740.
I would suspect 18735.

I do not understand the static over where it was reported or if it is a bug or not.  Something that worked in one build does not work in the next.  If it's "unsupported" then why did it work before and not now?

Llorean:
Nobody said it wasn't a bug. They told you to report bugs in the proper place (not here).

You're the first person to use the word "unsupported" in this thread.

Could you try a few other, especially newer builds with your Mini? The reason I ask is because the mentioned known bug with the automatic reboot into the original firmware hits only on some builds and vanishes/returns on - unrelated changes or even when compiling in another environment (another computer). Just want to sort out if what you are experiencing is the same bug or another thing.

drcos:
Glad to help...
As we know 18740 did not work
Tested the following on 'two' CF modded minis, they work
18748, 18759, 18765, 18769, 18773.

Notes: 18773 shows up in splash as 18773M.
And 'work' and 'not work' only refers to the original problem, mini stuck on USB Plug icon when trying to go into disc mode with USB connection (from Rockbox).

Thanks and keep up the good work.
