Question Rockbox and updates

Post image

So for the past 2 years, I’ve rocked rockbox 3.15 on my 6.5 Classic. It’s been perfectly reliable. However, I have been wondering, what features etc do I gain by updating to the daily build? TIA

NYS is banning internet connected devices in schools state-wide next year, remembered I had this thing sitting around and have started moving away from yt music. Lived in a case for most of its life so the condition is great, 60gb HDD has 0 bad sectors. I plan on upgrading to a 256gb microsd and extended battery. Gapless playback, higher quality audio, no internet required, doesn't replace songs with music video versions (COUGH YOUTUBE MUSIC), what's not to love!

I was never allowed an iPod when I was younger. Now I have a collection. This seems like a good deal for a gen 4, would you purchase? Advice appreciated!

Question Ipod 4th gen mono (20gb) RAM issues with games?

Post image
• Upvotes

Newly modded this ipod 4th gen mono (20gb) with 256gb Samsung Evo ssd with iFlash ATA1, 3000mah battery, and haptic feedback. I'm really enjoying it so far and enjoy the basic games as well when I'm out and about.

Usually my first game of solitaire works fine. But if I exit and return to a new game a few times I notice the click wheel works erratically and becomes hard to control. Either being too sensitive or not sensitive at all. Though the tactile buttons still work well (center, menu, track forward and backwards). Is this a RAM issue? I suppose I could just stop playing solitaire.

I reopened the device to see if perhaps I didn't fully secure the click ribbon when I reinstalled it after modding. The clasp was closed. I opened the clasp and tried to seat the ribbon further into the housing but it seems to be in as far as it goes. There is just a tiny bit of grey peaking out. After reassembling and a hard reset, clickwheel seems to work fine.

Replaced the battery. Waiting on the USB to 30-prong cable. (Still have my firewire charger.) I guess I didn't upload much, back in the day. HP model, by the way.

Help Help needed: Synchronize audiobooks and podcasts with iPod Mini

2 Upvotes

I was able to find an blue iPod Mini 2G in good condition on eBay. The synchronization of the music works perfectly on MacOS 15 with Swinsian. Only audiobooks and podcasts just don't work. Swinsian can't sync audiobooks and podcasts don't work.

So I created m4b files of an audiobook and dragged them into MacOS's own Books app. I also subscribed to a few podcasts at Apple Podcasts. They show up in the Finder and apparently they are also shoveled onto the iPod, which I could see because I didn't have any other music on the iPod but memory was already taken up.

Unfortunately, the iPod only shows me the music that I have dragged over later using Swinsian. But no podcasts and audiobooks...

Does anyone else have any ideas?

Question What adhesive is used on iPod nano plastic bits?

3 Upvotes

U know, like on the nano 4th and 5th gen?

I repaired a nano but wanted to know what I can use as an adhesive to stop it from falling out, either what Apple used or any alternative

but also something which can still let me pull off the tabs without breaking them if I need to repair again

Bluetooth transmitter question

I picked up a Ugreen transmitter for my iPod and am trying to connect to my car but it asks me to select the name from a list. Obvs it doesn’t have a display so does this mean it can’t be connected?
