The bootloader has absolutely zero bearing on the buttons under Rockbox, or, anything in Rockbox at all, for that matter.

So, since according to my DeviceInfo.txt I have different, updated version, I'm guessing this must be an issue with the version of Rockbox that was whipped up for the device a couple years ago.

The wiki links to the current version. If not that, which build of rockbox did you use?

Yep, I'm currently using the rockbox from the wiki. The only real issue I'm having is that home/back button almost never works. Re-installed the .rockbox today, and it worked at first after I disconnected. But whenever the screen blanks, the home/back button ceases to do much of anything. However, it's random; about 10% of the time, maybe ever three or four hours, the home/back button will work, but only until the screen blanks again.

Hi all,
I'm the dev of the port. Unfortunately I don't have the device anymore (I can't find it, I must have lost it :() so it's hard for me to test, I will try to buy one. Some thoughts:
* There are clearly two versions of the software: 1.0.0 and 1.0.1
* It is possible that the update process failed because the image I posted on the wiki was produced with an older version of my patch tool, I will update it
* For the buttons: I will reply to this post later today to describe a procedure that will help me troubleshoot this, would be great if you can do it and report the results.

Thanks -- I hope you find your device.
The one thing I've noticed with the home/back issue is that it almost seems to be linked to how warm the device is. (Think something like this was mentioned earlier in the thread.) Where I'm at, we're currently having a winter cold snap, so if I'm outside, sometimes even play/pause doesn't work at first. I don't often keep the device in my hip pocket, and home/back usually never works. However, if it has been in my hip pocket (where it's warmer). then home/back is far more likely to work. Strange.
Also, since re-installing the .rockbox, I haven't had the lock-up with the solitaire plugin I had before.
Since I'm the one with the different version of the software, I'm willing to test things out.
