4G ipod stuck at apple screen
« on: December 27, 2006, 11:32:48 PM »
I just installed rockbox on my 4th gen ipod, and ipodpatcher said everything worked. When I unplugged my ipod for it to reset itself, it went to the apple logo, and stays there, no matter what i do. If I reset it, the screen flashes on and off, but then stays at the apple logo. It doesn't show up in itunes, so I can't reflash it. Any idea on what to do?

Just answered my own question. Found this post in another thread:

As stated in multiple places on the site, Rockbox doesn't work on the 80GB ipod video.

You need to force your ipod into disk mode - hold MENU+SELECT for a few seconds until your ipod reboots, then immediately press and hold SELECT+PLAY.  You should then be able to access it from your computer again

Worked like a charm. Thanks anyway.
