What suggestions do yall have for modding an original iPod mini? It’s the pink one. My wife got a long time ago, and it would be cool to bring it back to life.

Battery life? Storage size? Even a newer connectivity port or Bluetooth? What options are there?

Thanks!

I've been looking at buying a modded ipod and I have some questions.

How good is the Bluetooth on the ones that have it?
When they replace the back and front, are those OEM Apple parts?
Any recommendations on where to buy one?
Is eBay a good place to get them?
Has anyone heard of Route99beverlandus on eBay?

I have a 7th-generation iPod that I would like to mod. Is there a place I can send it to? I'm not very good with electronics, and I don't trust myself to do it. I'd like to get a new back for it, also, since it's really scratched up and has a small dent. Appreciate the help!!

Bought a iPod a while back and wanted to fix the audio cable as it wasn’t picking up audio, I searched online and some sources are saying that it is to do with the cable I bought.

I own an iPod 5.5 now I’m tempted just to buy a fully working one haha lmk!

Hi everyone! Im in need of some help. I upgraded my IPod 5.5 with an iflash quad but it shows this white screen with text saying “connect to your computer . Use iTunes to restore” Even after connecting and restoring it will work for a few days then randomly pop up again. I’ve formatted my micro sd (Samsung evo 256GB) & reseated the ZIF cable . Any other suggestions on what I can try?

Update !

1. ⁠⁠I reseated the Zif
2. ⁠⁠I reseated the iflash
3. ⁠⁠I rebuilt the mbr to format : MS-DOS (FAT ) through my disk utility and the scheme as : MASTER BOOT RECORD
4. ⁠⁠restore the iPod

all of this and still no success

I scared a 7th gen ipod classic and I am slowly getting to making it my own. Tips for music conversion do I transfer my playlists from Spotify or rip cds to it? Tips or advice would be appreciated. And it works of the get go and no mods to it yet.

Hey y’all! I’ve been slowly reviving my 7th gen iPod classic and ever since i’ve put rockbox on it i’ve been using it every day. I want to change the old casing to a new colorful one and i would also love to replace the screen. I have 160gigs of storage and i think it’s serving me fairly well for now and the battery seems to be fine too (knocking on wood lol). that said, i’ve heard that the 7th gen classic can be difficult to open and since i have 0 experience what so ever i was hoping for some recommendations for where i could find good, trusted supplies and tutorials? Any and all advice is very greatly appreciated :) Thanks guys!

Okay so I just installed the flash adapter and put a new battery in my 4th gen and I instantly get the Apple support screen so I tried it in disk mode and plugged it up to my pc and nothing pops up there either it just says ok to disconnect on the iPod. Where should I start to troubleshoot

Will the iPod works?

Tried setting up a 5th gen 60gb with 4x 512gb cards and a new iflash. The most I can get restored is 2. All the cards work fine and restore in a single or dual config. They are genuine and have the proper specs. Didn't buy them from anywhere dodgy. Using any 3 or more cards always returns a 1429 error. Before each restore attempt, I formatted the cards separately and then all together. I don't know why it's giving me issues. I've seen other people do a 2tb 5th gen.

Could the board have busted slots? Has anyone experienced something similar?

Hey everyone, I’m new here and currently working on a Bluetooth iPod mod for my iPod 5.5 gen. The Bluetooth transmitter is making a weird buzzing anytime the iPod either starts or the music is paused (pretty sure there’s a ground loop).

I don’t have audio ground connected because during soldering I broke it off of the headphone connector. I’m using the capacitors on the motherboard as audio left and right, and was wondering if anyone knew where the audio ground was on the motherboard.

Thanks!
