I plug it, the original firmware apperar and start charging the unit. Fine A few hours latter I check the state of my box: still charging. I take it to check it's temperature (yes, I'm paranoid...). The moment I move it, the display change to "Charged". Cool ! What a coincidence ! The thing is, it happened VERY often. When I move/shake the box when it's still charging and almost charged (average time given by experience, no electrical mesurement...), the unit display "charged" and stop charging. It can't be software only, but I doubt the FMR has anything in common with those "motion charged" watches :) Maybe shaking the battery ignite some chemical reaction with the ions ? Maybe I'm getting crasy ? Any ideas ? Someone ? :) Received on 2003-12-05 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
