My hold switch on ipod nano 2nd gen suddenly broken, is there another way to lock key/button without sliding hold switch?

the ipod uses a physical hold switch therefor doesn't even look for a key combo hold

I vaguely remember addign this in a custom build in the past

you might just try the keyremap plugin to see if it work otherwise post here and someone might be able to throw together a custom build for you

@ucong likely you would need a custom build tht has soft lock enabled
I'm pretty sure devices with a hardware hold switch do not enable softlock
here is a bulid that hopefully works for you I did it based on the patch I used for another user
https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/1973

it uses BUTTON_LEFT|BUTTON_SELECT as the WPS keylock

rockbox-full.zip/file]https://www.mediafire.com/file/8cs30d7ob6vyt5w/ipodnano2g_softlock_[LEFT-SELECT]rockbox-full.zip/file

* In theory you should now be able to remap the button within the keyremap plugin as well *
