new bootloader-V5 on wiki: correct a few error on sd (related to a typo in the signal handling sd)
however there is still a bug that rarog is activily working on. So I guess we can expect new bootloader update soon. So except if you want to help debbuging it is probably not worthing to install this.
pamaury:
I have implemented power management so with the latest SVN it should correctly charge over USB. I'm currently experimenting with the implementation of core_sleep to increase the battery life, I'm doing a battery bench and although it is not finished yet, it will probably last for 16h. I'm wondering if someone has tried to benchmark the OF battery life ? (I'm not interested in the OF claim since these are rarely accurate)
EDIT: the battery bench is finished, it lasted 16h40 but without the rtc it's not too precise. However it causes the screen to flicker, I'll try to see if using the pwm to control backlight gives better result.
metaphys:
no and I don't really know how to make some test because basicly there are no logging of power value... I guess we could ask the user on sansa forum.

saratoga:
To test the OF, set it to repeat and record the audio with a PC. Open the output when it dies and see how long it lasted.
