Battery charging

(1/3) > >>

Mr. Kata:
I have an Ipod 5g with rockbox, I have no plans to charge it via computer/USB connection but I do charge it to dock connector/ via directly to an ac adapter.

But everytime I hook it up to charge, rockbox boots up everytime and the battery icon graphic starts moving is there anything I missed? is it safe for this to happen? do I need to charge in apple firmaware by holding Menu? im new to rockbox so someone telling me the proper technique for charging a rockbox powered ipod would be very appreciated.

Llorean:
A) Have you searched the forums, as there are many threads discussing this.

B) The behaviour you're describing doesn't sound like the default. Are you using a modified build?

Mr. Kata:
Im using the daily build available here.

Yes ive searched the forums and could not find a clear anwser.

Llorean:
So, when you hook it up to charge, while not pressing any buttons, it boots into Rockbox, or it boots into the disk-mode screen, where it says "Do not disconnect"?

Mr. Kata:
Exactly It boots up directly to the rockbox screen when I have it conneced directly a/c adapter to charge, the only time ive seen it in disk mode was when it was hooked up via USB directly to the computer.
