Screen scrambled on Clip Zip with RB 3.15

<< < (3/5) > >>

Bilgus:
hmm rather odd lets try a version with no changes to rule everything else out

Probably the battery life 'improvements' strike again

Edit:  1 time hard locked, the next corrupted the display, and the third worked correctly but crashed shortly there after when I tried to play a song.

Maybe a better approach would be to confirm that frequency scaling is really working, and then try to adjust PCLK? I think 120MHz is probably far outside of the device spec.

when you get a chance try this version with power saving disabled and see if that improves the display
this build is older somewhere after 3.14 was released but before 3.15

This is very interesting about the probable root cause of the problem.
Anyway, I must apologize for this inconvenience: after realizing I was having long boot times with any RockBox version, I searched everywhere and found that folders ##MUSIC# and ##PORT# contained corrupted files which I was unable to backup or delete and were freezing my PC, maybe due to the many tests I did on my ClipZip  :o
I decided to format the unit and reinstall all on the empty memory... magically the boot time is good again, and I can confirm that the very first build you provided (V1) is working flawlessly with a boot time of 2 seconds!
If you want to proceed further to find a "real" solution to the bug, I'm available to test your new builds.
I'm just wondering this: when 3.16 will be released, will I have again the screen problem or a fix (temporary/permanent) will be included?

ps: now testing the power saving one

Thanks again.

This is an update to the post above. Nope, this build still has the scrambled screen.
