256GB SSD +2000mah Battery Ipod Classic 5th gen/Pioneer touch screen

<< < (2/2)

rbhawaii:
if you install this older custom rb build your ssd hdd will work perfectly in rockbox mode

but rb will not change/touch your original ipod os mode.
and your rb 5.5 ipod may never be controlled by your car stereo because the devs wont make it work for you.  they will tell you to learn to code yourself and make it work yourself.
so your best bet is to ... install correct version of rb so your drive fully works in rb mode... connect head phone jack on ipod to aux in on car stereo... and enjoy the amazingness that rockbox is

was it hard to put a 256gb ssd in a ipod 5th gen? That's a lot of music I could listen to.

rbhawaii:

If you want to install a 2000mah battery plus the ssd you need a fat ipod like the 60gb or 80gb model. The 30gb model will not fit
