EDIT: Alright, I messed up; remind me never to delete an accidental doublepost again. Here goes.
I did a brief inventory of the parts, and came up with the following:
Halves of various cases, not including the intact silver bottom half in which the PCB sits.
Close-up of the super-special...
Unfortunately, the time has come where I can say that my Pandora is well and truly busted, and that I have run out of the means and time to fix it. The LCD ribbon is shot, the case is broken... well, it was a marvelous device while it lasted, and it certainly lasted a long time, my own brief...
Alright, this is going to sound strange, but by changing the boot.txt and directing it at the new kernel, the crashes have somehow stopped - despite the fact that the splash screen still displays kernel 2.6. I'm not entirely sure the problem is solved, but hopefully this is the start of...
There are indeed files marked uevent, voltage_now, and the like in the /sys/class/power_supply/bq27500-0 folder. When I try to open any one of them, however, I get an error message stating 'Failed to map /sys/class/power_supply/bq27500-0/uevent': mmap() failed: No such device.' This is while the...
Alright, so I loaded up System Info and it informed me that the battery was indeed at 93% and that it was in fact charging - notably, however, when I unplugged it from mains, the mwH dropped rapidly from 8 to 0 and the unit shut down. Health was also undetectable. Any ideas?
I can't say I did - I'll try that right now. The main issue is that my Pandora refuses to boot from battery, only when charging from mains, which is odd because I've tried a few batteries and I've stuffed almost the entire case with tissue. Not entirely sure what's going on, but hey - guess you...
After a bit of poking around, I was able to extract the archive with the Pandora SD installer and replace the uImage with the old kernel. Everything works great now - only thing is a little battery problem, which I think might be a contact issue. Thanks so much for your help!
So, I ran into a little problem with my CC Pandora - it appears to be one of those defective Craig units that only loads kernel 2.6. There was a bootable SD card that came with the unit, running 1.74 with the old kernel patched in - unfortunately, I didn't actually know this at the time, and...
RELEVANT THREAD NECRO ATTACK
I haven't actually got a Pandora yet, but I'm an avid DCSS player. Which is why I was disappointed at finding this thread dead. I was wondering... with 0.12 out and all the exciting new features in 0.13 coming, is anyone still willing to actually continue this...
