Ipod nano 2nd gen - white screen

<< < (2/6) > >>

siouxes:
I don't know how to change it. From the ipod i didn't find the contrast settings (i can only use the voice guidance) and from other thread i read that it can be changed by the file config.cfg... but i didn't find it in the .rockbox directory nor into sources.

Chronon:
If you browse the .rockbox directory with your PC's file browser you don't see a config.cfg file?

siouxes:
Really not... this is the content of my .rockbox ...

BTW, iPod Nano's don't have contrast... at least, mine (2nd gen) doesn't have.

When the backlight of the screen is at its lowest value, it's still readable enough.

What can be happening is that the setting of the inactivity display shutdown is set to 0 seconds (immediately), and I don't know if that's possible, but that will leave the screen dark and shutdown, not 100% white.

Chronon:
The manual says this:

--- Quote ---A special case configuration file can be used to force a particular setting or settings every time Rockbox starts up (e.g. to set the volume to a safe level). Format a new configuration file as above with the required setting(s) and save it into the /.rockbox directory with the filename fixed.cfg.
--- End quote ---

Try creating this file with desired contrast level in it.   Contrast is listed as a valid config option for this player, so it should work.
