Well done. :)

If you don't mind I will transfer some of your experiences to the wiki (when the site is back up).

No problem.  Anything to help.  Maybe this can encourage others to look for more easy solder points.

BTW, to clarify, the Vbackup solder point is at the bottom right of the mainboard when the board is oriented with the headphone jack uppermost.

If the alarm function works properly now,
would it be possible (...he asked with
trembling hands...) to add a patch
that started and stopped recording
based on the time of day?

I've got a project that needs a way to
automatically record for a few minutes, then
wait for a specified time, record, wait,
record, and so on.   Duration of recording
limited only by disc space and battery life.

It may be simplest to set the recording time
and the waiting interval from a text file (start
at 8:00, stop at 8:10, start at 9:45, stop at 9:58,
and so on).

There are a couple of commercial solutions
to this problem.  They are either inflexible
(recording starts and stops at fixed intervals),
unreliable, or very expensive (often all three).

I would be very willing to pay for development
time, or to donate an amount to support the
community forums, to get this capability added.

To reply to me privately, send email to xyz at
muchomail com. Substitute my name below for
the xyz.

Many thanks, and Happy Holidays to all.

The one caveat is that the alarm isn't working in any way. Right now I just have that wire going nowhere. Whenever I hook it up it starts the last song and play/pauses it forever. I have a patched firmware with both of those two lines uncommented, so I thought that it took care of that. Any ideas?

I had the same issue.  Something is not working in the init code.  I managed to set an alarm with the remote, after locking the main keyboard, and that stopped the toggleing.

YBIC,
Jim

I think it was a bad idea to choose a chip that outputs a waveform on the alarm pin by default.
