Will it still be shit if I install Rockbox?

I recently got my first Rockbox device, a Clip Zip. Installed Rockbox on it and it was mostly working fine but now it keeps giving me "panic" errors when I play music. It won't turn back on for a long time, this has happened three times and I don't wanna risk the brick being permanent. What gives?

>>61928798
I've done that 4 years before with the same iPod. Still working :^)

Just bought a Mini a few days ago, going to toss in an 8GB CF card till I find my microSD to CF adapter.

You'll have a better equalizer.

I did the 1900mAh battery mod on a iPod Classic, but it won't charge.
Though with the remaining charge it lasted fucklong, like 2 weeks.
The audio quality is useable. Not good by any means.

Ayy another 4th gen dude.
I was going to CF mod mine but itunes on windows refuses to flash it so i can then install rockbox. Works just fine on OSX though.

The clickwheel, dumbass.

And iTunes sync

>wanting itunes sync

Troll.

>>61931758
High moddability hardware wise, relatively low price and lots of spare parts available on the Internet
Also Rockbox, don't forget about that

>>61931795
>iTunes sync
No

>>61931758
A fuckton of spare parts and a well established mod community.

How's the sound on this?

Any info?

I just want a separate device which will sound good and in which I'll actually be able to use my hi-end stuff and use FLAC

I have like a bunch of 256mSD cards around so yeah.

Are you just modding it to achieve the functionality of the previously mentioned chinkshit daps?

Not trying to shitpost either, anytime I see online discussion about daps it's always fiio and other shit, not ipods anymore.

>>61931930
Nah, I'm modding it just to mod it and keep using it. I'm autistic to the point that once i find something that works i stick with it.

>>61931930
I do it because it's neat and I love clickwheels. The only non-iPod clickwheels I've seen are mechanical

>decide to fuck with it again
>still doesnt work
>ended up breaking the headphone jack/hold cable's connector of in the port
Fuck. $10 fucking cable. Might as well start looking at 5th gens again.

>>61932611
Or just buy chinkshit

I have a Clip Zip with Rockbox. Sound is bretty gud but certainly not audiophile tier. Shit ton of sound options though, so you can set it sound however you like it.
