DetailsStarting with rev 16105 (2008-01-19) (when some firmware changes were made), plugging into USB turns the screen black and makes the click wheel permanently glow, and I have to remove the battery to fix this. On some builds, it doesn't always do this. I haven't ascertained the reason. When it doesn't, a battery charging icon appears in the toolbar, so I assume the change has to do with allowing battery charging from Rockbox.
IMHO, the user should be able to choose whether Rockbox charges when plugged in, or reboots into the OF, as it did in revs 16099 (2008-01-18) and earlier. |
This task depends upon

Reason for closing: Fixed
Additional comments about closing: should be fixed now.. you may have to install the latest bootloader from svn though

I just installed today version (r6819) from r67xx (maybe r6729). My sansa e260 (refurbished, bought from USA - patched with sansapatcher downloaded 2 days ago, no custom modification) hangs when I try to connect the usb cable when rockbox is active. The system try to reset but hangs while the on screen image fades-out (sometime a black line appears in the middle of the screen)... it remains illuminated but nothing can be done. The only solution is to hold the power button for almost 10 seconds to shut the player down (someone suggested to remove the battery... very very unfair in sansa e260 !!! It is locked with screws !).
Only once an USB icon appeared but then everythings hanged like in the other cases (lcd fades out, etc.).
I never see the battery charging icon.
It normally works if I hold down the left button and boot with original firmware.
The same thing also happens if I simply select "reconnect usb storage" in the System / Debug Menu, except the USB icon doesn't appear in the status bar (because it's not actually plugged in at the time it freezes).
I deleted my previous post because after actually testing the build it forced me to use recovery mode to get a working OF back... try the above change if you can...
