USB Device Charger runs really hot with Rockbox (was: Wait? What!?)
« on: May 21, 2009, 06:42:48 AM »
I have a Minty Boost that is just a USB device charger, anyway what is up with this.

If I am useing the apple firmware the minty boost will only get slightly warm like it usually does.

If I use rockbox the thing gets so hot it melts the hot glue I have holding it all together!?  :-\

WAT!?

Sereously this makes NO SENSE!

Your charger is broken and should be replaced before it damages your player.

He also said it's being held together with glue - this is not a good sign...
