Davide-NYC:
I know it's weird to quote oneself but here it goes:

I only dreamed that this was possible. Only in my dreams could this be done. :D
I will attempt this as soon as it has totally matured. This is truly amazing to me.
Thank you so much.

So now that the appropriate chip has been found that does both RTC and alarm without any installation caveats (other than the obvious ones) I would like to purchase four (4) DS3231 chips as I have three H1x0 units and want another H120. (don't ask why)
Does anyone have four chips to sell? And if so how much for then shipped to 10013?
Thanks. ;D
TaperChuck:
Well, I installed the DS3231S and the recorder still works fine. ;D
I used double sided carpet tape to anchor it to the circuit board and placed a small piece of electrical tape over it before I replaced the hard drive.
I just need some help getting the RTC patched REP version of Rockbox. Anyone... ???

Thank you very much roolku! My RTC is working properly, now and I'm using REP too. Â Add me to the list of happy modders who have done the RTC mod.

Bedlore:
A huge thanks to roolku for contributing such a brilliant mod!
Thanks to Software_Samurai for been willing to ship me the chips too.
I spent the first half of the day installing VMWare and working out how to compile in order so that I could use the REP flavour. Then I saw roolku made that too, thanks again. Will the REP pack always support the RTC by default now?
I thought I killed my unit at one point, I soldered two legs together on the U23 chip and without the right tools it took me a lot of scratching and reheating to get it off. After I had finished the unit wouldn't boot but after I powered it from mains things came right again, phew. So go very easy with your solder and try not to use too much.
In summary I am extremely pleased, I have a habit of recording lots of files over months without clearing my unit.. now I will know when it was recorded to the second! ;D
