Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2007 14:16:00 +0200 The hold switch is used to start the Apple firmware. From Chapter 3.1.2 of the Rockbox Manual: "Rockbox has a dual-boot feature. To boot into the original firmware, shut down the device as described above. Turn on the 'hold' switch immediately after turning the player on. Once Rockbox displays the message 'Loading original firmware ...' you may turn the 'hold' switch off. Rockbox will boot into the original firmware." Are you saying that your iPod boots to the Apple firmware even if the hold switch is off during the boot process? Yes, that is what I'm saying. And this seems to happen after I didn't use the Ipod for some hours. Until now I stopped the player in the evening. Push the hold button to on. Next day I push th hold button to off, but before I can press select or Menu to turn the player on in Rockbox mode, the Apple firmware boots. It sounds strange, but it is strange. It is also strnage the player uses a lot of battery during those hours. I stopped in Rockbox mode with 100% battery, next day after resetting theplayer to Rockbox battery status was 88%.
