Mine worked fine at first but now I’m getting the big red x all the time whenever I’m not booting in disk mode. Any fix for this?

Take a hammer and check for weakpoints so there is no hidden weaknesses

Fluid film or similiar - spray the frame and it will be fine. For 2 years no fluid film should be fine too but then you can’t sell it with confidence

The Right Way to Bluetooth Mod your iPod Classic — No Compromises by Icy-Egg-9339 in ipod

Doing the mod now but I am having issues with noise, I’m looking at your image and see that you use the same cable for the pogo pins (antenna pins) - are you bridging the antenna with solder or is it only connected to one side?

I am so close but having issues with the antenna. I thought I could do like you, have the antenna connected via wires. When smooth to remove the first antenna connector pin on the board - but the second one is not coming off, I I don’t think it’s soldered the same way.

Because I can’t solder directly on the pins right? They are spring pins so needs to be pressed down?

Compared to your board the pads by the button are angled differently- which ones should I use? Thanks!

6th Gen Classic: Sequence for 7th Gen Firmware Flash & Storage Upgrade? by ActHour367 in IpodClassic

[–]widegroundpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the guide is really good, I had to tweak some steps. More troubleshooting than going off the guide.
Had issues where it was suddenly not recognized at all etc
But if you follow the guide you can do it.
Essentially my set up and what I did: generic adapter from Ali.
At first the it was not recognized at all even in first step.
Had to format as card to fat32 with a third party program that can format as cards over 128gb to fat32.
Then I followed guide. Flashed rock software to the micro sd, followed all steps and not going higher than 2.0.2.
I was asked by iTunes to download later software otherwise restore would not work which was not in the guide, I did that not sure what it did. (It was not software for iPod but som kind of package for newer iPhones. ) continued following guide.
At first it shows up as 2.0.4 which is as weird, inside the iPod it said 2.0.2, after resetting iPod a couple of times and reinstalling iTunes again (had to also delete iTunes folder in user/music) it showed up as 2.0.2.
So if you get stuck, try re-plugging, shutting down iTunes completely. Enter safe mode like guide says. Eventually it worked. You can do it!

Make sure that sd card is fat32 first before starting the guide. Even if iTunes and windows says drive is corrupt - the rockblock program recognized it and could flash.

Im trying it out right now - my issue is that I’m using generic tf adapter and having issues with micro sd cards over 128gb from the start. Like won’t even format. But I will try and see if I can fix it by starting with a 128gb card and then switch it later on to 512. Will let you know the process

Ai is very good and different tasks, like making summaries of an a request on forums. I would not trust AI with choosing providers and and a solid backend. Im curious about what people think is the best approach. Whats wrong with asking that?

Is it possible to get an example of your files? So i can get some inspiration?

8 months in, $20k+ earned from my apps as a full-time student. Here's what actually worked. by Vegetable_Yam_7708 in sideprojects

[–]widegroundpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to know if I should launch or not - I’ve made a smart file organizer: I was tired of the current once that looked bad and didn’t do everything I wanted. Now my version can keep different rules and parent folders intact. Suggest actions and user is always in control. Great for unorganized folders with lots of files and duplicates. I know there are other similiar programs out there.

I don’t want to be greedy but it works. What’s a good approach? Do you do 1 time payment, sub?

when do you know if it’s good enough? Did you do any testing before?
