disabling USB bootloader?

<< < (2/3) > >>

bluebrother:
IIRC there is a patch in the tracker to allow charging via USB but AFAIK this doesn't affect the bootloader. So to the best of my knowledge, no. Someone who knows better may correct me if I'm wrong ;-)

brihall,

It looks like you have the same problem that I have.  My h320's USB bootloader mode doesn't do what it is supposed to either.

Linus,

Is there anything I can do/test to help you with this?  I recently got linux dual booted on both my machines, and I hadn't even thought to test it until now. (will do when I get home from work)

hey yeah,

my usb bootloader mode completely fails to manifest itself on either of my Ubuntu computers, I don't use windows so i can't say whether it works there or not, but i can't see anything happening when i plug it in usb bootloader style, querrying the dmesg and stuff reveals that so far as the computer is concerned nothing has happened.

further, when i plug in with the player on and the usb connection logo comes up, the icon for the drive comes up on the desktop like it did with the other firmware, however, the player shuts down in five minutes and the battery is allegedly completely depleted.  if i wait five minutes and turn the player on again, suddenly i'm back to something like 75% battery again...this is something that puzzles me greatly.

anyone know a fix for this battery thing? it's pretty alarming.  however, Rockbox otherwise is amazing, i love having a more utilitarian high contrast, low brightness display and gapless output! fantastic!

When you've got your iPod connected to your computer in USB mode, it's using iPod firmware.  It has nothing to do with Rockbox.  You'd be better off searching on an iPod specific forum for the answers to this.

(For the record, I have Ubuntu and it works great)
