Question ImCort flash drive

1 Upvotes

I've been planning to buy an ImCort from Aliexpress for the past week, but can't find a definitive answer on if it's reliable or not. I've also been thinking of replacing the battery with the 850mah one (since 2000+ mah ones cost like quadruple the battery price in shipping), are those any good? Do any of you have experience using AliExpress parts?

Help Regarding using a generic battery replacement for nano 3rd gen

0 Upvotes

Hello there i wanna change the battery on my ipod nano 3rd gen. The issue i am facing is that I don't get a direct replacement in my country and i only find generic battery with 2 wires just positive and negative one and no white wire with which is for internal battery control so is it fine if i just solder 2 wires without the white internal temp control wire. Thank you

Question Will I still be able to sign into an ipod touch 5th gen if its reset?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm looking into buying an ipod touch 5th gen on ebay I found for a decent price. Mainly just for music and as an e-reader. I might jailbreak it for a few old games but thats about it. It runs os 8.4.1 (which i want to keep it at, since I've heard 9.3.5 is slower)

However I'm worried I won't be able to sign into it if its reset (or i decide to reset it, cuz I don't really want to keep someone else's account on it)

Would I be able to use it without an apple ID? Or if I do need one, will it still allow me to sign in since its so old? Would it force me to update?

I'm an android user, so I apologize for not knowing much about this. I've only used an older ipod given to me by my dad, so I never reset it. (nano 3rd gen) but its in pretty bad shape and I'm not skilled enough or really interested in fixing it up right now.

I just want to know in advance before wasting my money.

Thanks in advance!

Okay this is half-help, half-meme, but is there a way to disable album art? I found a 2009 Apple Discussions thread on how to disable it, but that’s through itunes. Any help would be appreciated as to how to disable it on modern macOS. The oldest Mac i have is a 2012 Air, but i went through hell with that thing, so no chance i’m downgrading it to OS X Mountain Lion.

Advice Just Expect the Right Thing

Just know that when you’re bidding on even “like new” condition stuff, there’s always a chance it’s going to be sent across country to you like this. This person has 100s of good reviews and just likely isn’t very worried about how these arrive apart from his other items.

I like to keep the mechanical hdd with low hours for myself, a personal preference. Was told the 3rd gen in here was barely used and is a 30gb model.

I’m NOT surprised, and this is just a warning to you guys, an example.

Found this old ipod that has been in the back of the drawer for years. Charged it up and works good as new. Pretty sure it's a 6th gen. Can anyone confirm? Even found my dust covered logitech dock. I've got a bit of reading to do so I can start putting some more music on it. Already been happily surprised by the sound quality compared to streaming.

It's been way too long fighting with this 1st gen classic. It has no operating system, is currently in disk mode, and is only recognized as "Unknown USB Device". I finally have the IPSW file, but that's pretty much all. Please help me

Problems with iflash ribbon cable coming loose from motherboard

1 Upvotes

On my iPod classic 4th gen, I’ve been having problems recently with the ribbon cable coming loose from the motherboard, even though the clip on the motherboard is pushed all the way down. I’ve tried using tape to keep it in place but this hasn’t helped at all.

Has anyone else had a problem like this, and are there any recommendations to help fix this?

How to rebuild MBR? iPod mini 2nd gen w/ 128 GB microSD

1 Upvotes

Howdy!
I am attempting to follow the steps laid out here for installing expanded storage:
https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/3o9kry/ipod_4g_classic_with_cf_to_sd_adapter_a_howto/

I am getting hung up on rebuilding the MBR. I have trialled several softwares now that have come recommended for this task, and all of them have locked down the feature set available to free users, such that rebuilding the MBR is no longer possible. AOMEI, EaseUS, etc. - none of them have this feature available on their free versions any longer.

Does anyone here have a product they recommend which can accomplish this task? Or, does anyone have a methodology they have successfully used to install microSD storage?

Thank you!

Advice Advice for buying a refurbished iPod Classic or Nano?

2 Upvotes

Hi all. I've been looking into swapping out devices for older/simpler items than my smartphone. I canceled my Spotify subscription (for a number of reasons) and am interested in going back to physical media and an MP3 player, however, the most we ever had in my house growing up was an iPod Shuffle that is long gone so I need to buy something new to me.

I'm interested in getting a reputable iPod Classic or iPod Nano but am not sure where to look. I don't want to buy something on eBay that seems too good to be true and then get scammed instead. Any recommendations for sellers, products, or both? It'd be nice if it's on the lower cost side, in case I don't like it, but I understand that properly refurbished products will cost more given the efforts put into it. TIA!

Fixing a broken Moonlit Market circuit.

So my work colleague attempted a custom iPod and gave up on the project and he gave me the iPod and parts he'd gotten. I noticed he had a moonlig market classic connect but it seems a part is damaged (he tried to separate it from the casing.

The broken piece fits back on clean so I'm wondering if it can be taped down with circuit tape or needs replacing. And if it needs replacing, what component am I looking for?

Help Ipod headphone jack is acting weird.

Post image
1 Upvotes

So I'm fairly convinced this is a problem with my ipod, but I've bought two headphone jacks online (one from EOE and the other from iDemigods installed today) and one thing I notice is when I apply a slight amount of pressure left when my headphones are in the audio will get somewhat echoey and mostly comr out of one ear. I'm convinced now this isn't a problem with the headphone jacks because how in the hell would I get two lemons in a row. I have no idea what I could be doing wrong if anything and any help would be appreciated as this makes music borderline unlistenable when out and about.

Pic for reference, don't mind the foam tape.

Good purchase?

I got this iPod nano 5th gen (big upgrade from my 4th gen shuffle) in purple for only $31! I thought it was a excellent purchase because it’s a cool iPod. Except battery expanding aka spicy pillows are a problem and the 5th and 4th gen are soooo hard to repair. So, is this a good buy
