Discussion of now-committed ipod startup workaround

<< < (6/9) > >>

torne:
You don't need to vote now, because the workaround has been applied. Current development builds should hopefully not have the problem any more (and nor will 3.5 once it is released).

Isn't it possible to lock the poll, or even this thread then?

torne:
I already closed the poll; I didn't lock the thread since people seemed to be discussing things still :)

"Some ipods do not power on correctly after being shut down and require a hard
reset before they work again. This workaround shuts the device down via the OF
which prevents the problem from occurring. There is a cosmetic effect: the low
battery symbol appears briefly on power of."

Never had the problem with my 30GB iPod video, but it has been happening quite often with the 60GB version I bought a week ago.

Today I upgraded to 3.5 and was wondering about the battery symbol that appeared at power off, the above explains that!!

Chauncellor:
Thanks so much for including this! It works like a charm.
