DetailsThis patch makes a "beep" everytime the battery icon
blinks in the status bar. There may be a better way to do this, if so tell me. Todo: -Make it sound more like a beep. I borrowed code from the "key click" patch, since I don't know how to make sound myself. -Make a setting in the system menu to turn it on/off Suggestions/comments? diddystar5_AT_aol_DOT_com

This is the patch for feature request 802229.
Whoops! Thats feature request 626816.
removed the #define... It's not really needed.
I plan to revive this patch soon, since the new mp3_xx
functions are out. Stay tuned!
Just a note
do { mas_codec_writereg(0, 0); mas_codec_writereg(0, 1); }
while (0);
First off... This code is identical to:
mas_codec_writereg(0, 0);
mas_codec_writereg(0, 1);
Secondly, without checking the core code, I guess this just
enables and disables the audio, thus creating a "click" or "pop"
on the audio lines.
In theory, if you do this at the right speed you will create a
"tone" or "buzz" at a given frequency.
You are probably looking to create a frequency between about
200Hz and 1000Hz, so here is a basic idea for you, if you want
to try it.
int Hz = 444; /* Concert Pitch Middle A */
int Freq = 1000/Hz; /* 1000mS per S */
for (i=0; i<duration_mS; i+=Freq)
{
mas_codec_writereg(0, 0);
mas_codec_writereg(0, 1);
sleep_mS(Freq);
}
hi, i'd like to use your patch but i'm not shure the way to
apply it. i use rockbox dev kit and when i type the
command "patch -p0 < batt_low_beep.diff.txt
it doesn't seem to apply properly. do i have to apply it in a
precise directory? i'm not really familiar with applying a patch
so would be really nice to help me a little, i'm a blind rockbox
user.
thanks.

Here is a somewhat updated version.
Apply it in the rockbox root directory
I used BC's beep (which I have not listened to, my recorder
is not around right now).
Todo: Support the new units (probably with the mp3 commands?)
Please give feedback!
