[SOLVED] iPod Classic with SD Card is Crashing, Freezing, and More

Hi,

I have an iPod Classic 6th Generation 80GB, which was upgraded to work with a micro SD card. I am using an iFlash Solo board with a 64GB SanDisk Ultra Micro SD card (Recommended on iFlash.xyz). The iPod works fine for a while, but then it begins to act up.

I restored the device through iTunes and installed the latest OS software. It works fine until a couple of songs later, which is when it starts to act up. It begins to stop playing songs (but I can still hear the iconic click wheel sound), skip tracks, restart automatically, freeze on boot up, flash the apple logo, then repeat. I did a hard reset, restored it on DFU mode, and no luck.

After restoring the iPod for the 2nd time and still experiencing the same issues, I decided to install Rockbox into the device. I understand that Rockbox has an unstable version for iPod Classic 6th generations, but I don’t have any other choice? Well, it worked longer, but it then crashed multiple times and freeze on boot up. Once again, I reinstalled Rockbox and, sadly, it didn’t work.

At this point, I’m starting to believe that the problem is my SD card. I bought mine at BestBuy, and it works fine on my phone. On my phone, I am able to transfer songs and play them without any problems.

I have looked up for solutions online, but nothing seems to have a long term fix for my iPod. I already tried tt2 (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/502...), and it still didn’t work for me.

I have tried fixing my iPod on a Mac and Windows with a formatted SD card of FAT32 and Extended Journal. Any help is greatly appreciated!

iPod Classic had an incompatible micro SD card. It is now fixed.

When you say 'incompatible' what do you mean? What did you change?

@Jim I used a SanDisk Ultra Plus micro SD card, instead of SanDisk Ultra. iFlash.xyz provides a list of compatible SD cards for each of their boards.
