IPOD CLASSIC IFLASH QUAD INSTALL
IPOD CLASSIC IFLASH QUAD MODS

I see the auto-moderator is on your case today, I approved the post for you. Which btw - don't use the foam pad when installing with a 2000mah square battery.Ībsolutely don't pick up red-tape with a diameter under 10mm (which is what I use) - skinny tape doesn't make a functional difference, but it immediately divulges into a nightmare of tape stuck on tape stuck on tape stuck on tape stuck on tape.Īlso you just need a single 2' strip of 10mm on that battery.īoth adhesives are basically necessary & incredibly useful for working on iPod Mini's too. I recommend 1' Kapton tape, it works perfectly for securing the SD card in the iFlash Solo. You can certainly find waaaayyy better deals on those if you look for a minute or two. I do sell micro-SD to SD adapters for $0.25 here.Ībsolutely, here's some links to the adhesives I use: Kapton tape & 'red' double-side adhesive. Sorry that was veryyyy long!!!! Hope that helped and good luck.Nope, it just comes with a foam pad. My ipod is 1tb and its more than enough for right now and it runs great. If you have the extra cash to shell out for 4 1tb cards than by all means go for it (I'm curious if itll work). It also really comes down to a cost thing. Yes you'll have to carry around another device but its way less risky than damaging your ipods logic board.įor storage capabilities theoretically its possible to have 4tb but I dont think it will run that great even though rockbox doesn't seem to have any actual size limitations. The taotronics or trond ones are really popular. I recommend just getting an external transmitter. I've also read that most of the time you will have to pair your ipod to whatever headphone/speaker every time you use it.

You will just have to figure out if the transmitter will be working from a separate battery or soldering another connection to power the transmitter from the ipod battery.Īlso with most of the successful bluetooth mods I've seen, you will likely have to remove the headphone jack to make room for the transmitter. If you pretty proficient will soldering you can definitely solder and a transmitter to the logic board. New Battery (If you going with a high capacity battery, you will need the thick back)Īs for bluetooth capability there are a few options. SD adapter (I recommend the iflash Quad) It'll save you a ton of money and timeįrom there you can start purchasing all your different parts: Honestly after looking at the list below, I think your way better off just buying a working ipod and replace any of the parts you feel like need replacing. Your best bet will just to find a cheap ipod that is listed as 'for parts only' but you will definitely to make sure that all the components of the logic board are intact.

Automatic quad mode adapter use with 1 MicroSD card in standard mode and 2 or 3 or 4 MicroSD cards in mixed JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) mode for even greater storage capacity.

If your going for the from 'scratch build'. For those seeking solid state storage capabilities for their iPod, the iFlash-Quad allows you to install and use MicroSD cards. Not exactly sure what you mean by building it by scratch but I agree with all the previous comments.įirst I'd just buy an ipod off of ebay or any other website you can find that sells ipods. So, my three big questions are: do I need an iPod Classic to start this project of mine can iFlash quad support 4 1TB MicroSD cards, and is it possible (and realistic) to make it Bluetooth? I more or less know what I need, but I'm still not totally comfortable buying anything. I'm also thinking of making it bluetooth if I can find a good transmitter. I saw someone else here had a 1TB iPod Classic, which is impressive. I don't know if the iFlash quad supports it, though. I'm thinking of building a 4TB iPod Classic if possible. I know of a few places near me that might build one, if I brought them the parts. I'm not quite sure what to buy or even if I should build it myself. I discovered iFlash, a few videos on YouTube really were really informative, but I have yet to actually buy anything. Again, I'm not sure about the OS.Īs soon as I heard that, I started doing to a lot of research and have found a lot of stuff that has helped me quite a bit. I've been reminiscing on my old iPod Classic that was stolen a few years ago, and recently heard it's possible to build one.

I can't imagine any other way to get the OS on the device.

Is this required for the OS? I would imagine so. First things first: I don't have an iPod Classic.
