Ipod nano 2g: using without battery [SOLVED]

(1/1)

Jbod:
The battery of my Ipod nano is broken (it can't be startet without USB connection), but I want to use it connected to a USB-Hub. It works fine with the Apple firmware, but in Rockbox the Ipod will shutdown after about one minute. Even if I turn of the backlight to save energy.
I'd be grateful for your help!

I'm using the stable version 3.10 of Rockbox

saratoga:
If the battery voltage is really low, you'll hit the low power shutdown.  I guess you could change the threshold voltage for that.  You could try changing the shutoff voltage in

firmware / target / arm / s5l8700 / ipodnano2g / powermgmt-nano2g.c

to 0 and see if that prevents it from shutting down.  Not sure if thats all you need.

Jbod:
Yes, this solved my problem. Thank you very much!!!
