Date: Tue, 24 Oct 2006 18:04:40 +0530 I have the new battery with me. But that sill doesnt changet the fact that I cant charge it when it dies... :( I considered replacing the connector. Couldnt find one that would fit in. Also, the connector in the iriver has a microswitch in it. I wasnt sure if ignoring its presence - as I would do if I were to just solder wires onto the board and draw them out - would cause any trouble. Can anyone tell me which rockbox build has the usb charging patch in it... ?
