Sansa Fuze V1 USB charge

[bobdotexe]

So when I charge my fuze it switches to original firmware mode;
BUT.. if I plug it in, during boot up, it shows a rockbox
connection screen...... and I can charge in rockbox (no data access)
it even displays the name of my last played song,
but no sound!?!?

so is there any way I can listen to music(in rockbox) and charge at the same time?

I have moved your thread since it did not belong in the unsupported builds section.

Once Rockbox has booted, press and hold the select (center) button and insert the USB cable.  This will put the Fuze into charging mode and allow normal operation.

This and other useful information can be found in our fine manual.  You might want to check it out.  To get you own copy, you can click the link in the column on the left side of this page.

so was that other mode, some kind of experimental Usb connect mode???

There is a known bug where plugging in the USB at the wrong time may cause problems.  It is listed on the bug tracker here: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9957
