Booting into original firmware...

(1/2) > >>

cutefangs:
I know this is likely a topic that's been discussed again and again, but I'm aware of HOW to do it, I just CAN'T do it. I hold select and menu to reboot the iPod. Then I hold the menu button down till it says "Loading original firmware." Yeah, I can do that. 1/12th of the time. Is there an easier way to get into the original firmware (I keep my videos in iTunes, music in Rockbox)? Or can anyone offer me a tip like when exactly I need to start holding menu?? Much appreciated!

Llorean:
Well, you can just turn it off by holding Play.
Then press and hold menu, turning it on, and continue holding it until it says "Loading Original Firmware"

accel:
someone said to set it down and just hold one finger on the menu button without moving your finger around.  that works for me everytime

fatherfork:
It shouldn't have anything to do with the way you press the button, only that you press it.

Llorean:
It has a small amount to do with it because if you press it too late, or you trigger any scrolls while trying to hold it down, it can fail.
