Help Finished 5th gen mod - battery issues!

Post image
Upvotes

Took a few months and a replacement motherboard due to an unseated DAC, but finally up and running.

Running the very nice FreshOS from yuuiko

One thing I’ve noticed is the battery capacity isn’t anything like what I was hoping for. Got a 2000mAh from EOE.

I have configured the battery capacity in the settings so Rockbox knows what is in there

But it’s running down fairly quickly. Even in the pic it’s at 64% without what I would call super heavy usage.

I’m aware the theme is a little more resource intensive that the usual ones in the available themes on Rockbox (requires its own separate download etc.)

Could this be it? Or do I have a crappy battery from EOE

Question Is it possible to convert a thin back ipod 5th gen to a thick back?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I'm looking for the most battery I can get out of my ipod. I was thinking of using an iflash CF mod and getting 3000mah as well, but apparently I need a thick back for that. The ipod I purchased is a 30 Gb thin back and I'm just asking for advice regarding if there's any way to mod it with those components using another kind of back mod?

Question Modding help?

23 Upvotes

Bought this off eBay yesterday nd I’m so excited for it to come 🥹🥹 been searching for an iPod for a couple months now. I paid about $120 for it after taxes and shipping. Did i get a good deal? My original goal was to score one for less than $100 but that’s nearly impossible with the iPods becoming more popular lately. I do want to do a couple mods on it but i have absolutely no tech experience so im a bit nervous for that. Any advice for modding as a beginner? I wanted to put a new battery, more storage, and a new front and back shell on it. Watched a couple YouTube videos but it looks a little complicated.

Advice First time iPod purchase, some tips?

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hey y'all,

I've been thinking about it for a while, and I finally wanna get myself the iPod I've been wanting for ages. Specifically I'm looking for an iPod Nano 4th Gen in blue.

But I have no clue where to start! I was planning on just buying one on eBay, but I have no idea if I'm buying a good one or not. If anyone has any tips, things to look out for, or even a link to a recommended purchase, you would be my hero lol.

Some important wants for me:

-Must be 4th gen, and blue with white click wheel

-Great condition/Like new, I'm looking for the closest experience to brand new

-Earbuds and Charger included

-Sealed/Original packaging would be nice, the experience of opening it new but this is really just a "would be nice"

Thanks so much and I hope I'm not asking for too much haha!

Help Any way to download photos from old iPod touch to my computer?

3 Upvotes

I’m pretty sure my iPod is a 4th generation, and I haven’t used it in years. I found an old charger that works and went through my gallery and found some photos and videos that I want to save, I successfully saved the photos to my laptop but the videos won’t download. My laptop says that it can’t support them. I’ve tried to connect to my apple account to use iCloud on the device but that won’t work either. Is there any application I can use to download the videos?

I've been working on a video converter for both windows and Android and I'm keen to hear what features people would be interested in seeing. I've built in every feature I could need for myself but I'm sure someone clever out there has something challenging for me to add. Conversion in the video was done on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 Elite phone and took <5 minutes for a 40 minute video. Let me know!

Advice My FireWire charger bought in January crapped out

Post image
11 Upvotes

As title says... Bought a FireWire wall charger with cable in January from eBay and it's now dead so need options before purchasing from a different seller since the one I used ( FullCirclePod in case anyones interested or if you're here ) doesnt respond to messages ( not that there's any warranty listed but still didn't hurt to try or to respond to a customer).

When plugged into iPod, the iPod lights up as it recognizes something but nothing happens on the battery display. Have tried different iPods and I know cable " might not " be the issue since it was plugged to a dock and it almost never moved. I only took out the insert and used it without if the device I wanted to charge didn't fit in the insert ( Lazy of me because I own almost all inserts.)

For those with experience with this cable ( picture)... I will be using it with 3rd Gen and up and mostly plugged to a dock ( Apple iPod Universal Dock )..

- Does this cable currently sold by EoE works?

- Build quality decent?

- No special wall blocks needed?

- Works with anything that has a USB A port?

And another question... Is there a way to determine if a FireWire wall charger is original or fake? Guessing I got a fake..

Thanks in advance..
