So we are back to loads of posts of "I've download X and it doesn't work on my device" with replies of "Download the latest library pack". It completely violates the "Just throw the PND on your SD card and your done" principle of things. Besides, the OS will ship with a load of library files...

I may well work with cards over 128MB, but I can tell you now, it can only ever tell the GP32 that it supports upto 128MB, as thats the most the firmware supports. There's no standard for anything bigger than that, so you'll have fun trying to find something.

You need another cable which has female USB. It doesn't use the same pins on the connector as the cable with the male usb, so don't try and use an adaptor with it. I don't think such a cable exists yet to buy, but people have created there own, and some people have even modded GP2X BoBs into...

Yes, the Wiz has a MMU, same as the GP2X.

Yes, but I forget the commands now. You had to umount the secondary nand and then mount the backing store via usb gadget driver. Once your finished you remove the gadget driver and remount the nand. I used it for quick update of software.

I thought of trimming this thread, but it seems that theres too much to be done, so since it has gone wildly off-topic, I'm just going to close it.

A better idea would be to try and reinstall the latest firmware.

Seems like they are both connected to the same issue: Either the mount point disappeared, or the underlying storage is corrupt (which itself could cause the first).

Yes, W7 is much better than Vista. I'm just waiting for someone to write a script to get rid of all the crap before I install it however. You know, disable the "fade in/out menus", disable "smooth scrolling", etc. I like things snappy, not sluggish and cpu wasting. Then again, I might just stay...

Or, you could work in the same way as a large proportion of viruses in the PC world work - via exploits. Should the version of Firefox on Pandora has some kind of buffer overflow exploit, all it would need is to visit some "bad" site and your Pandora could be infected. Of course there would be...

It was relevent and on-topic, unlike your response :) Firefox will be the default, but there will be other options. As for plugins, I would agree on such a limited device, but its less messing about with the software if we just allow it so you can use things like Adblock and peoples other...

correct, 3.3V is the optimum voltage, probably because the step up ic doesn't do anything at that voltage and above. I've corrected my typo. It's not just current, it's current at a particular voltage (which equals wattage). Current will always increase as voltage decreases.

I checked this a long time ago, here's the result for anyone who missed them then: 2.5V - upto 850mA = 2.125W 2.9V - upto 690mA = 2.001W 3.1V - upto 650mA = 2.015W 3.3V - upto 590mA = 1.947W 3.7V - upto 530mA = 1.961W As you can see, 3.3V seems to be the best, but there really isn't that much...

If someones creates one, we'll sticky it. Can't say fairer than that.

Maybe for the things a Beagleboard/Gumstix doesn't have: LCD, Keyboard, Wifi, Bluetooth, etc. Also, it would make sense to remove the Pandora and make changes on the device rather than having to remove, attach to a PC, etc (or the same with USB sticks or whatever storage you use).

Which is exactly the reason it's on the ext port. Its there because some people WILL want it, but not enough to get the price down to sensible levels. I doubt anyone would want to buy a £100 lead just because its made in such small quantities, and they are not going to ask for 1,000 if only 10...

It does support booting from USB, but it's not what you think it is. You have to connect it to a PC and run application software on that PC which transmits a boot file to the unit in the same way as UART boot works. It also depends on the boot configuration configured on the PCB. I don't know if...

Looks more to me that the board got hacked rather than a mod throwing his toys out. Mods usually can't even see the IP address of super mods or administrators (ie, anyone higher than them), let alone ban them or delete all the topics in a forum. You would have to delete each individual thread by...

In all seriousness, it's probably a grounding issue.
