Iriver H10 Scroll pad randomly moving up and down menu

(1/3) > >>

mjukok:
I decided to update my H10 to the latest version of Rockbox using the installer, however this did not work correctly and I ended up with the systems file missing problem, this was not a total problem as I restored the Iriver software via Iriver Manager. So I have resorted to installing Rockbox manually. This has gone ok and Rock box has installed but the scroll function has gone manic and just keeps moving up and down as if the buttons are stuck on. This does not happen if I use the Iriver firm ware and did not happen on my previous Rockbox install so its not the player at fault. I thought that perhaps this was a firm ware problem and have tried installing each version back to 3.2 so I guess the problem must lie in the Rockbox boot loader which is version 6 . I have down loaded the software from the link in the Rock Box on line manual. Can anyone shed some light on a solution to this ?.

A couple of other points which may be of no value :

The Iriver site installed v2.51 firmware which I think is MTP

I then reinstalled the original firm ware which is 2.53E, which is UMS (I had backed it up previously).

Only the UMS Rockbox firm ware boots up, if I try installing a MTP version I get a system file missing issue.

There have been one or two reports of this in the past, and it seemed to be related to battery - either when the battery was very low or failing.  What is yours like?

mjukok:
Hi, thanks for your reply, I would say that the battery is ok, and I have swapped out the battery for a spare one that is also ok and I get the same problem. Both are original batteries but they hold their charge ok. The problem only started occurring after the firmware upgrade, prior to that I had 2 years of trouble free Rockbox use.

AlexP:
What version bootloader did you have before?

mjukok:
That's a good question unfortunately I do not know. Despite backing up the I-River firmware and boot loader I never got round to backing up the working Rock box boot loader and I never took much interest in the version number whilst it worked, but it would have been a good couple of years old.

Myself I'm no expert at all, but I kind of suspect that the Rock box boat loader is the problem. Is there somewhere to down load boot loader versions prior to version 6. I've found achieves for the Firmware but not the boot loader.
