Hi,

What version of Rockbox are you using? I'm using a build from 30-06-2009
(R21158) and it works fine. I have tried both with the PowerMonkey portable
battery charger and with the AC mains plug that ships with the PowerMonkey
connected to the iPod connector. Whilst charging the battery level shown on
the display does not change, but as soon as the power supply is disconnected
the level is updated to correctly reflect the new charged level.

I think older builds (going back a few months or more) had issues with AC
charging. I'd suggest you try a new build, or a daily one. You can back up
your current configuration to revert to it if you're not happy with the
update.

Best,

H.
