That crossed my mind too but it would leave scratches on the copper. And you can always put a sticker on top of the pads saying "Warranty void if removed", the ones that you cannot take off without ruin them. Stickers that change color with water are also a nice idea, in case of water damage..

Quote from another thread: To use the JTAG you have to solder wires on the pads, therefore losing the warranty :P

OK, next step: Identify EVERY SINGLE passive component on this side of the board and their value (use the multimeter on the screen). After that: X-RAY! Anyone with good photoshop skills can x-ray the pcb and see trough the various layers. Who's with me?

And then there's this: http://technabob.com/blog/2007/09/27/hp-mscape-augmented-reality-gaming-handheld/ :rolleyes:

Hey guys, what's going on here? Look at this beautiful -> :pandora2ut4:

About the TPS65950, ur right.. it's just that i'm used to call it "TWL" :P in fact, they are about the same thing, TI just replaced it like they did with the omap. About U19, blame him...

Unless you don't mind having less songs on your device. And there are those who enjoy high bit-rate mp3's or aac's as much as lossless formats.. :D

Well, i'm glad i was wrong about the line out, using the DAC on the TWL. :) On the TWL: 16-bit Linear Audio Stereo DAC (96 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz, and Derivatives) not that bad, some onborad audio cards are still 16-bit Anyway, saying that the amp reduces the quality can be subjective...

Added a few more, wea0 got the most.. Edit: I labeled U21 as Bus transceiver for the DAC although voltage translator fits better..

Use the line out on the EXT since it's not amplified (i guess) and let the stereo set amplify the signal.. Although the headphone out provides more quality. And again: The EXT audio ins and outs are drived by DAC's and ADC's from the TWL, the BB DAC plays no role in this port, it's ONLY used in...

AFAIK the EXT gets the audio from the TWL and not the BB DAC, which is only for the headphone output Source

not really :P Tks urjaman, it's really AIZ, therefore: http://focus.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tpa6110a2.pdf found. Edit: ouch, server crash xD . Btw, i always knew it was the amp but not which one.

I've been trying to identify U13 for a long time (left side of the headphone socket). Can somebody agree with me that the bottom marking is AIZ? Or can MWeston confirm that? :P

Ur right, if OP opened an exception to one person, everyone would want to buy it that way. And sending the item back and forward because of the warranty maybe wouldn't even work.

But then again... "It is NOT against the law. The "gift" declaration is not specific enough legally and is intentionally left in a grey area for "interpretation". This was told to me by two differant post officers at two differant post offices who both told me ALWAYS to mark the items as...

What if OpenPandora sends the package as a gift and not a sale? If it was already paid (even the shipping fees), then the money declared in the package can be $0 i think.. Some online stores do this, some only declare a very small amount of money (this is nice for most EU countries that buy from...

riiiight :P It's not! And no, you cannot.

Wooo hooo!! Renderz!!! xD

I also always wondered about that amp :P Link here

Those Koss Portapro have an impedance of 60ohm. If the specs of the Pandora haven't changed, it can output 150mW into a 16ohm load (~75mW into 32ohm, etc). If you thought the sound was too loud, then you are giving us good news :P 150ohm headphones will sound good, 300ohm headphones will...
